PENROSE To USE
INFLUENCE FOR
FORDNEY BILL
Chairman of Senate Finance
Committee to Work For
Passage of Emergency
Tariff Measure, He Says.

Washington, Jan. 6.-Supporters
of the Fordney emergency tariff
bill were given encouragement to-
day by the announcement of Chair
man Penrose, of the senate finance
committee that he would use his in
fluence to obtain passage of the
bill. In a statement, issued after
his committee opened hearings on
the measure, he assured his repub-
lican colleagues he would join them
in pushing the legislation, but de-
clared for modification of the
rates in the bill as passed by the
house
Senate opponents of the bill
however, were not disheartened by
the announcement. They were in
clined 10 accept the public defini-
ton of his attitude as a political
move, while democratic opponents
asserted the statement was issued
as reply to republican senator's
on the committee who had de-
manded Mr.. Penrose say, in effect,
whether he would stand with or
against them.
Democratic opponents pointed
out that they, with the aid of SEN
ator Penrose, had obtained open
hearings and expressed confidence
that The story of the "other side"
would carry sufficient weight to
to make passage difficult, if pos
sible at all. T;iey added that they
hoped to annex so many amend
ments that the house would reject
i. in conference.
The house ways and means COM
mittee today heard more than
twenty witnesses on revision of the
Underwood tariff act. 1t took up
schedule A and the witnesses dis
cussed higher import duties on

ings will continue indefinitely.
Conditions in the agricultural in
dustry, described as deplorable,
and for which a remedy was de-
clared to exist in the Fordney bill

fore the senate committee by F ].

George NJ. Thurmond, secretary of
the Texas Sheep and Goat Raisers'

NO CAUSE FOR
ALARM SEEN IN
BUSINESS WORLD
(By The Associated Press.)

Kansas City Mo-. Jan. al
though every industry in the dis
trict has felt the effect of curtail-
ment and price recession, many
observers now believe the situation
will soon right itself and business
proceed upon a broader and more
dependable basis than at any time
since the war, according to the
December monthly statement of the
Tenth district federal reserve bank.
However, according to the re-
port, the crisis has not passed by
any means and hope is expressed
that "bankers have taken warning
from the conditions which recently
necessitated, the closing of several
state banks and one member bank
in this district and that conserva-
tive banking practices will here
after prevail"
Bankers are cautioned that great
care must now be taken in extern
sions of credit and that applications
for loans should be scrutinized
carefully. The demand for loans,
the report says. continued strong
throughout the district, and there
are only slight evidences of liquid
alton.
Concerning the labor situation
the bulletin reports that curtail-
ment of employment has been gen.
eral and that wage reductions have
been announced in some places. A
striking exception Of the general
labor situation, the bulletin states,
Is to be found in the coal mining
districts of Missouri, Kansas. Okla
homa and Arkansas. where there
have been fewer strikes and inter-
ruptions the last sixty days than
for several months previous and
the percentage of unemployment in
the mines during November and
early December was less and pro-
duction larger than for any other
previous period for a long time.
Price reductions on merchandise,
which are being forced at a con-
siderable loss. have brought slight
improvement to the wholesale trade
situation, although the volume of
business is under that of November
and December year ago. the bull
letin reports.
With reference to retail trade,
the Dulltllll UOl6S that utSpltt
falling off in demand and hest
fancy on the part Of the public ex-
penditures, retail merchants re-
ported "a fair business"
Turning to the agricultural stu
alton the bulletin says the autumnal
and early winter weather this year
was especially conductive to favor
able farm operations and that an
abundance of moisture, save in
isolated localities, has made the
prospects most encouraging for the
next growing season.
