Merchants Protest u. S.
Tariff Valuation Plan

Merchants in many cities of the East
and Middle West are protesting against
tho American valuation plan in the
Fordney tariff bill, according to q
statement issued yesterday by tho Ma
tional Council of American Importers
and Traders. Firms in Minneapolis, in
Indianapolis, in Philadelphia, includ-
ing O. G. Hampstead G. Son, Samuel
A. Vauclain, president of the Baldwin
Locomotive Works; merchants Of Chi
cago, retailers, wholesalers, publishers
and other merchants OF Boston and the
Detroit Board of Commerce join in the
protest.
The Oliver Ditson Company, music
publishers of New York, and the Hough.
ton Miffllin Company are against the
measure. The latter firm declares that
sit will kill an important element in
American publishing, work a great In
Justice to American readers and stu
dents and react unfavorably on Ameri-
can exports of books" A protest
signed by twenty eight large Journal
publishers has already been sent to
Mr.. Fordney.
Samuel A. Vauclain says:
II trust that the lawmaking body
in Washington Will not infict upon
those who desire to continue in foreign
trade such a ridiculous law as the
Fordney tariff bill would be did it
contain the American valuation plan
as set forth in Section 4O2"

Max ID. Steuer Engaged
by Employers as Special
Counsel in Wage Dispute

That the International Ladies' Gar
ment Workers Union had obtained the
services of Samuel Untermyer in suing
for an injunction restraining the Cloak.
Suit and Skirt Manufacturers Pro-
tective Association from enforcing Its
piecework demands, on the ground OF
violation of agreement, was made
known yesterday by Benjamin Schlesin-
ger, president of the union.
Mr. Untermyer, consulted by Morris
1lllquit, attorney for the union, Of
fered to act without fee. In the mean
time, however, the manufacturers asso-
citation had employed Max D, Steucr as
special counsel.
Mr.. Untermyer was consulted before
MT. Steuer came into the case" Mr.
Schlesinger said yesterday s'Mr. I'm
termyer's letter accurately represents
our position upon the breach of the
contract by the employers. There is,
however, no reason why that or any
other phase Of the pending discussion
should not continue in the hope that
the employers will see. the wisdom of
resembling their resolution and thus
obviate the necessity OF asserting our
legal rights under the contract"
Employers Action Criticized
Mr.. Untermyer's letter to Mr.. HILL
quit says that examination of the
papers submitted brings him to The
following conclusions:
l.. That the action of the EMPLOYERS
constitutes an unjustifiable violation of
the agreement of May 30, 1919, and is
an objectionable effort to abrogate it
before it's due date on June /. 1929
z. That it was the duty of both par
ties to have abided by the supplemental
agreement Of June 8, 1921, and that the
employers, instead of waiting until No
vember l, 1921, as provided by that
agreement, refused to further consider
its provisions.
g.. That the existence of sporadic
s.rlkes IN various of the factories, even
IT authorized or supported or encour-
aged by the responsible heads of the
union, which does not appear to be the
fact, did not justify the association in
declaring that the agreement of May 90,
1919, no longer functioned and in an
ncuncing a breach thereof. That was
the precise state of things contem-
plated for working the machinery of
aroitratIon set up by Paragraph 20,
which the employers refused to do and
thereby committed breach
Labor's Rights Not Forfeited
Mr.. Untermyer then adds:
The week-work as distinguished
from the piece-work system is dis
tlnctly assured to the workers until
June next, and the latter have done
nothing to forfeit that right. 1t was
of the very essence of the understands
ing of the parties that all working
conditions under it were to be adj
justed by the method indicated by the
document and not by the process of
tearing up the agreement, which is the
course that the employers now propose
to adopt if permitted to do so.
"Based upon these conclusions of
fact, l have no hesitation in answering
the inquiry you have put to me by
saying tliatAin my opinion the unions

Football Game May
Be Protested on
Sowing in Films
Ohio State Claims Warning
Pitchers Prove Forward
Pass Which Gave Illinois a
Touchdown Was Not Legal

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 2o.--Coach
Wilce, of Ohio State, announced late
tonight that he may protest yester-
days victory Of Illinois over Ohio
State to game officials, following the
exhibition of motion pictures Of the
game at downtown theater tonight
which showed clearly that in the forS
ward pass, which resulted in the Hill
nois touchdown, the bail hit the
ground before Walquist recovered it
and dashed several yards to the goal
line.
Grounding of ball in forward pass
ball is returned to its original position.
Game officials yesterday held that on
this forward pass play the ball
touched Walquist's hands, then struck
Captain Myers of Ohio state and
bounded off his chest, and was recov-
cred by Walquist without the ball hav-
ing touched the ground.
Coach Wilce said tonight that Ohio
State protested the. decision at the
time, claiming that the ball had struck
the ground before i. nit Myers. DR..
Wilce said he probably would call the
attention Of the game OFFICIALS to the
pictures if they support Ohio States
claim made yesterday. He said the Hi
nois victory probably would stand but
added that the referee and umpire
should know the facts. He did not in
dicate that he would protest the score
to Western conference officials.
Motion pictures distinctly showed the
ball striking the ground before hit
ting Captain Myers. Following Its
public showing, the football film was
run slowly seven times before an
audience of newspaper mon late to-
night. Coach Wilce announced that he
would view the pictures tomorrow
morning at special exhibition.
The theater showing the pictures an
nounced that it will present the film
to the Ohio State University Athletic
Department.
Several individual Ohio State play
ers said tonight that it was their
belief the ball had grounded before
striking Captain Myers. Myers, how
ever, said he was not in a position
to know, as the ball struck him on the
back while he was facing in an oppo-
site direction.
Coach Wilce indicated that his pos
sible protest" will be unofficial, and
will be made for the satisfaction Of
proving Ohio States contention at the
time
Magidsohn, Of Michigan, refereed the
game, and Colonel Mumma, of West
Point was the umpire Kearns, of the
Illinois Athletic Club was field judge
ard Lipski, of Chicago, was head lines

Cripple Boy OF IL
TakcnFrOm Home
TO Be Deported
Held Defective by Inspectors,
Who Say He Must Return
to Scotland; Mother Dead;
All His Relatives Here

Agents of the immigration Bureau
yesterday removed Jackie Schumacher,
twelve years old, from his fathers
home in White Plains to Ellis Island.
They say the boy Is defective. Ac-
cording to officials in charge Of the
case he Is to be deported to Scotland
In few days.
The child has no relatives in Scot
land, all his family having come to the
United States within the last three
months ago. Doctors say her death
was due to fear that her son would be
deported.
In White Plains Jackie Schuma cher
Is affectionately known as "Tiny Tim"
Like tho child character in Dickens's
"Christmas Carol" he has been beloved
the more because he is cripple.
Since Mrs. Schumacher's death the
boys sisters have tried by every
means at their command to influence
official judgment in his favor. Last
week they were notified that Jackie
fell below the mental and physical
standards prescribed for immigrants
and would have to return to Scotland.
AS there is no one to receive him ne
will have to be sent to an institution.
Through the good Offices of Con-
gressman Hustled the schunachers
were permitted, when they arrived
here, to release their youngest son,
Jackie, from detention by filling bond
guaranteeing that he would not become
public charge. Later the bond was
extended
Carl Schumacher, his elder son,
Charles, and daughter Kate came to
the United States soon after the war
ended Mrs. Schumacher and Jackie,
with another boy and girl, arrived in
New York early in 1920 immigration
agents at once pounced on Jackie. The
boy could not be admitted, they said.
At once every member of the Schu-
macher family besought all who knew
them to render aid. Their affection
for the crippled boy was so devoted
that they won influential assistance.
Recently general roundup of de-
fectives for deportation was ordered
by the authorities. Jackie Schumacher
is only one Of many who have been
taken to Ellis Island during the last
few weeks to await the governments IS
pleasure, but the Schumacher case by
its pathos has appealed to a wide cir
Gle of sympathizers with the family
and efforts are being made to obtain
Jackie's release

Hindering Effect, Says Stcuer
Mr. Steuer conferred with the en-
ployers yesterday. He said last eve
ming that he did not care to comment
upon Mr.. untermyer's entry into the
case until he had read the letter care
"rhe beginning Of lawsuit cannot
but have hindering and obstructive
effect upon the industry" Mr.. Stuer
said. "No suit will be brought by the
manufacturers.
"The question is divided into three
parts: What is fair wage, what is
the method by which this can be deter
mined; what machinery can be estab-
ished to decide disputes
eve have decided absolutely not to
reinstate the 1919 contract. The union
admits that it abrogated the agreement
in October, 1920 by furnishing notice
that they would not continue the con-
tract until they got an increase In
wages Of s per cent and by striking in
four establishments That voided the
contract and there has been mono in
existence since.
"What the employers wish is an i'm
partial tribunal, preferably the Federal
Labor Department, to determine what
are fair wages to-day and what work
must be done for them"
Mr. Schlesingcr said that he had re-
ceived word from Philadelphia that the
employers there had postponed INSTALL
ing piece work until Wednesday, and
that he hoped they would abandon the
proposition entirely.
Until the result Of Mr.. Steuer's ef-
forts are found, Mr.. Schlesinger said, a
reply to the dress manufacturers, who
are making demands similar to those
OF the cloak and suit employers, will be
held In abeyance.
