 During his testimony MT. Tweeda e also contradicted the assertion made be- fore the committee by Colonel E. H Abadie, his predecessor as general comp troller, that he (Abadie) had been rail roaded out of his job by Martin J. Gl- len, formerly executive assistant to the chairman of the shipping board.

REPUBLICANS PLAY
 SUBTLE POLITICAL
 CAME WITH TARIFF
Alabama Senior Senator Seems to Have Democrats
 In Hand and Will Out { guess Boss PenroSe
By HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Age Herald
 6at ft.y.nsan n,.tldtn.


 Washington, February l.-The attempt of the Republican majority to apply the gag rule in the senate tomorrow, in that the emergency tariff bill might not be freely discussed will result in failure. Senator Underwood, leader of the Dem ocratic minority, after checking his strength tonight declared his confidence in the certainty of the majorty's de- feat. There win be no cloture and the i bill will be discussed fully on its merits. Senator Underwood feels certain that the farmers of the country, as a result of revelations to be made during that dis cussion, will withdraw even the vestige of support which at present they appear to give the bill
 SOUTHERN FARMER
 The farmer of the South were the bill law and effective,' Senator Under wood said would receive some pro- lection for his peanuts, but he would more than pay for such protection in in creased value of sugar, flour, nHat and shoes. The farmer who supports the bill. and asks for it's passage. does not understand its provisions"
 1t is Republican strategy to sidetrack the bill after the defeat of cloture, for the republicans, it is known to be true, do not desire the passage of the meas ure. It is their purpose to make dem- ocrats assume responsibility for it's de-  ever, declared the unwilingness of dem ocrats to permit republicans to drop the bill.
 We will give them vote on the re- publican effort to shut off debate, and thus deny us the right properly to pre- sent the bill to the country" he said, but we are willing that the bill itself, following full discussion, be put on pas sage. | am interested in watching New England senators put prohibtive tar if on raw materials"
 WILSON TO VETO
 Senator Underwood added that he was certain the president would veto the bill if it be enacted.
 There are numerous defections in the democratic column both as to cloture and the bill itself. It is understood that Senators Ransdell and Gay, of Louisi- ana, Ashurst, of Arizona, Smith of Geor- gia, and Heflin, of Alabama, will aid Senator Penrose in his effort to shut off debate tomorrow, although the latter has not fully determined the matter, and Senator smith, it is understood will go no further with Penrose than in es- tablishing cloture. Other senators from southern states are standing by the ten cts of the party, and it will be impos- sible for the republicans to secure the necessary two-thirds majority for clos ing debate.
