DEMOCRATS STATE
TARIFF LAW WILL
OPPRESS PEOPLE
E MINORITY REPORT
Criticizing the Republican Ma
jority of the Committee for
Withholding Bill for Them
Democrats Said They Had
No Time to Draft Substitute
After Bill Was Read.

Washington, July 7.-DemOcratlc
members of the ways and means
committee in a minority report filed
today in the House denounced the
administration tariff bill as a Con
spiracy to benefit a few favorites at
the expense of all humanity.
Like every conspiracy it has been
Matched in secret" the report stated.
1--WE record a solemn judgment
that this measure is plan to plum
der the people of our own country
and oppress the people of foreign
countries to benefit a few men who
have succeeded in usurping for all
practical purposes the taxing power
of this government, using it primar-
lily to enrich themselves, and second
arily to finance the political party
which tolerates such conduct"
The report declares the tariff was
not an issue in the last campaign
and this is not the time to write a
tariff law.
The problem which confronts our
people to stifle our commerce and
perplex an amiable admiration for
us have nothing to ,dD with the tar
iff.
Criticising the republican majority
of the committee for withholding the
bill from them and from the house
membership generally, and for per-
mitting only week in which to study
it, the democratic members declare
there has been an insufficient time to
draft substitute. They do not un-
dertake a detailed discussion of in
dividual schedules in the bill con-
fining their report to a general in
dictment of the whole measure and
manner of it's preparation.
The two results of the bill were
the probable effect of the bill on
American commerce and world indus
trial situation generally and the sub
| stitute of American valuation as q
basis for levying tariff duties.
Pointing to the rapidly decreasing
| foreign trade the report says, eve
need no tariff to cut off the imports
and the exports of the United States
Calling attention to the fact that the
foreign trade of the United States
fell from $1,1S2, ,449 last July tc
1927, ,378,825 in May, 1921 the re
port says:

and Is East Thirty-second street, near
Fifth avenue. a Twelve story basement
ana sub-basement fireproof hotel, with a
five story annex, known as the Gold
fish, on a lot 75x100. The hotel is COM
pletely and artistically furnished. has

lily owned and managed this hotel since

city. The seller agreed to give possess
sion of the property on October l. 1921.
The property was held at s650,000. the
larger parcel being assessed for $3.50. 900.
John A. Osborne negotiated this trans
action. Rounds Hatch, Dillingham; &
DeT3evoise were the attorneys for Mrs.

resented Mr.. Jackson.
Recently Mr.. Jackson bought from
Mrs. Herter the magnificent mansion at
SAL Madison avenue, a five story resi-

Special Despatch 10 TUE New Yo.K HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. G., Aug. 81.
The muddled financial situation in
Cuba appears TO be near solution through
new bills just passed by the Legislature
and now awaiting the signature Of Pres
ident Zayas. These bills provide for adj
ditonal taxes and for an external loan
of $52,000,000 and an internal loan of
approximately S54,000.000.
Under the Platt amendment the Gu
ban Government cannot make either a
foreign or domestic loan without APP
prevail of the United States. One OF the
conditions of this approval is visible
surplus in the Cuban Treasury.
President Zayas undoubtedly will
withhold his signature TO the bills pend
ing approval by this Government. The
plan at first was worked out with Gen.
Enoch II. Crowder and is being COM
pleted by the Cuban Minister at Wash
ington and the commercial mission here
headed by the Cuban Secretary of the
Treasury, Gellebert.
The commercial mission is urging on
Congress the ACCESSIBILITY of eliminating
Cuban sugar duty in the Fordney bill,
otherwise Cuba will seek to abrogate
the present reciprocity treaty by which
a 20 per cent. preferential is extended
TO imports and exports to and from the
United States.
The bill authorizing the external loaE
OF $50, 900. 900 provides thirty year bonds.
The new bills have cut down the orig
inal budget proposals from S100.o00.00o
to s64, 900 900.

CURRAN WOULD END
RED TAPE FOR VETS
Tells Foreign War Service Men
the Government Should
Treat Victims Better.

Henry H. Curran, President of the
designee for Mayor. delivered two
speeches yesterday, one at the annual
picnic of the drivers and sweepers OF
the Street Cleaning Department at
Woodhaven. Queens. and the other at
night, to an audience OF the Park
Theatre, Twenty-frst avenue and Crop
sey avenue Brooklyn. In neither speech
did he touch on politics, but he aroused
cheers when he declared at the theatre
that the sooner red tape is dispensed
with in the care of wounded and dis
abled soldiers the better.
The Government Is now undoing
some of the work that has hampered the
fair treatment of the disabled veterans.
said Mr.. Curran at this meeting. which
was under the auspices OF the Veterans
of Foreign Wars as part of a drive to
eliminate red tape from the Govern
mental dealings with disabled veterans.
Two years from now there will he
more disabled soldiers than there are
now. Not all of the victims of gas at
taclts are on the disabled lists yet. The
Government should prepare in advance
to give these men the very best treat
ment. which is their right
Mr.. Curran also spoke Of the efforts
that have been made to erect expensive
war memorials to the men who died
fighting.
II think" he said. that we should
walt some time before busying ourselves
with a permanent memorial. The people
are putting up neighborhood memorials
and they are genuine. They are suffi-
cient. IL any reminder Is necessary, TO
.&.x.l. A.
sacrifice made by these soldiers. But
instead Of huge marble monument lot
OF people who are busying themselves
with such projects might better aid in
the drive to eliminate red tape from
Governmental dealings with distressed
veterans"
At Wcodhaven Mr.. Curran presented a
cup won by team of firemen In tug
OF war with a police team. compliment
irg the men OF both departments on
their loyalty and good fellowship.

STATE CONFERENCE
WILL BEGIN TODAY
Most of Delegates Reached
GreenvilIe Yesterday and
Conference Will Start
at 9 A. NJ.

Greenville. November 22-(Spe-
cial. 1.-The eighty-ninth session of
the Alabama Methodist conference
will open tomorrow morning in tina
historic First Methodist chuch of this
city. Everything is in readiness and
conference machinery will start in
motion promptly at 2 o'clock, when
Bishop James w. Cannon will sound
the gavel. Bishop Cannon was de-
layed in arriving and his cabinet
meeting, scheduled for Tuesday aft
ernoon, was postponed until tomor-
row morning.
The sixty ninth session of the Ala
bama conference was held in the
same building in 1901. Since that
time the church has experienced a
marvellous growth, and the church
plant has been remodeled and en-
larged twice.
Most of the delegates arrived to-
day and tonight. but the reception
committee is on faithful duty to give
the remaining ones a hearty and
cordial welcome.
Most of tomorrow will be devoted
to the making of the reports. to COM
mittee meetings and to what Is
known in Methodism as passing of
characters
The administration of the Lord y
Supper by the bishop and presiding
elders will be participated in by all
members of the conference at the
morning session.
District Change Rumored.
There is report current among
the members of the conference that
there might be a change in the dis
trict plans which will change the
territory embraced in the districts,
reducing them from IL to nine or 10.
This plan will not meet the approval
of some of the delegates, as they
claim some districts are now too
large, and that is especially true
with the Andalusia district.
A lively meeting is expected when
the question of instructing the dele
gates to the general conference to
vote in reference to naming the
length of time bishops shall be elect
ed to serve comes up. This was one
of the liveIiest questions at the North
Alabama conference which was re-
Gently held at Birmingham.
Tuesday was devoted to business
and various boards and committees
held sessions in rooms set apart for
that purpose in the Sunday schooi
annex. A number of undergraduates
were examined by the committees of
the first. second, third and fourth

school and concert being promoted;
think every possible musical ad
