VIII Haze To Be Changed
6. c. Darts, Custom Official,
Tells Senators That Charges
Would Prohibit FmDorfx

WASHINGTON, July 2s.-Overhaul
ing of rates in the Fordney tariff bill
Will be necessary in order to permit
its effective administration, the Senate
FINANCE Committee was told to-day by
George c. Davis, chief of the com
parative values bureau in the New
York Custom House. Mr.. Davis de-
clared further that if Congress
adopted the American valuation plan
OF levying import duties, even more
radical changes in the rates would
have to follow.
The American valuation plan as
substitute for the present system of
assessing duties On foreign values
was attacked by the custom Official
who saw in it the cause for amending
litigation and general tying I'D of
the importing business" He added
that. as drawn. some of the rates in
the Dill, administered on an American
valuation basis, meant positive pro-
hibition' Of importations. He did not
however, enumerate the commodities
of which he spoke.
MIR. Davis said that none knew what
the effect of the change would be
and predicted it would take wears to

for Phantom Animal

SOMERVILLE, N. j., July 26--All
five members of the Somcrville police
force, under Chief J.. A. BELLS, have
gone over in body to those residents
who declare that there is no lion in
the environs of Somcrvillc and that it
is waste of energy to continue to
hunt for one
The entire town of Somervilc to-day
is divided between those who declare
they have seen the lion those who
have friends or relatives who are will
ing to make such statements and those
who believe that there is no such
animal.
To-day with a view to convincing
those who declare they have seen the
lion that their eyes have played them
false and discouraging big game hunt
crs from coming to this place, the nom
believers took James Jones's collie,
made him up like lion, and paraded
him up and down the streets. Follow
ing the parade the dog was on exhibit

In spite of this object lesson, how
over, large citizens posse left here
shortly after shutdown tonight, pushed
across Peters Brook Valley and con-
tlnued their search for the lion.

Senators Voice Approval
Comments from number of Sena-
tors on the proposed action regarding
the railroads were favorable Senator
Poindexter, a leading Republican mem
Der of the Interstate Commerce Com
mittee, said
"Anything that will lead to the wind
ING up of the unfortunate experiment
OF government operation of the rail
reads favor, and, as l understand it,
this proposal of the Presidents looks
to that as we'll as to relieving the
the depression in the country. | am
inclined to think that the Interstate
Commerce Committee will act speedily
upon the necessary legislation and
foresee no serious opposition to it."
Senator Willis. Of Ohio, Republican,
said:
Il think the Presidents suggestion
is fine. 1t is to the point and wise.
1t entails no additional appropriation,
no extra governmental agency, but sim
ply businesslike use of governmental
powers we already have. / believe it
will meet with a favorable response
at the hands of the Senate"
Senator New, of Indiana, Republican.
said:
II am in favor of the proposal made
by the President. 1t is good business
to do it. The first thing to be done is
to restore the United States to stable
business conditions. That must be
done before we can do other things
which are much to be desired"
Other Senatorial Views
Senator Mclean, of Connecticut,
Republican, another member of the
Interstate Commerce Committee, said:
This looks to relieving the rail
roads of some of the bad re-
suits of government operation, and

restore the roads to the condition
they were in before they were taken
over by the government. 1t seems to
me that the proposal should help slim

Others who Endorsed the plan on the
Republican side were Senator Jones,
of Washington, and Senator Kenyon,

Wood May Yet Become
Governor of Philippines
From The Tr1bume's Waehimeton Bureau

From The Trtbune's Washinqton Bureau
WASHINGTON, July 26. ~ Major
General Leonard Wood can be Gov
efnor General of the Philippine Islands
II be wants to be, it was learned at the
White House to-day. The question:
arose whether the President is con.
sidering the appointment of any one to
the post and White House attaches said
that under no condition would the
PRESIDENT name man to the island
cost without first learning the report
OF the Wood commission investigating
the Philippines.
General Wood and W. Cameron
Forbes are at present investigating
the colonial possession and are not
expected back until early IN Septem-
Der. The White House has received
no official intimation thus far of the
nature of the report which the inyes
tigators viii make.
1t is no secret here that General
Wood several months ago turned down
the offer to be Governor General. Since
then he accepted the provcstship of
the University of Pennsylvania and
plans to enter upon his duties there
this fall. limitations have rea .hed
the White House through the War De-
partment it is averred, which indicate
that since General Wood started to in
,vestigate conditions in the Philippines
his attitude toward the post of Gov
ernor has changed. Friends here do
not hesitate to say that If the post
were offered him now he would, in all
probability, accept. 1t is extremely
likely that the President will renew
the offer if convinced that General
Wood wants it.
Incidentally the President hopes to
nominate chief justice and two
justices for the Philippines in the near
future.

Toxic Agrees
To Enter Far
East Council

Indies in which she has considerable
interest, and that inasmuch as Mexico
and Holland have not been invited to
take part in the proposed conference
at Washington, the inference il.
drawn that only such questions as
Shantung and zap are contemplated
for discussion, according to a state
ment from Japanese sources issued
here.
The contention is put forth that
Japan cannot go to Washington mere
ly for such a limited discussion. Japan.
it is declared, has no objection to
entering conference such as that pro-
posed, and is even grateful to the
United States for inviting her to dis
cuss disarmament, but can only con-
sent to general discussion provided
all matters embraced by Pacific prob
lens are discussed.

toms officers at Thursday Island, off the
Queensland coast, where Archbishop
Daniel j. Mannix, OF Australia, is due to
arrive by Japanese steamship on Sat
urday, says an Exchange Telegraph
Company dispatch from Melbourne to-
day.
There is a strong belief, declares the
message, that the Australian govern
ment intends to require the Archbishop
to take the oath of allegiance.
Archbishop Mannix is just about COM
ple.ing a trip around the world, which
included visits to the United States,
England and Rome. Although he was
in Europe for several months during
the latter part of last year and early
this year, the Archbishop, who was an
outspoken advocate of Ireland's cause
during his tour, was not allowed by the
British authorities to visit Ireland.

Referendum on War Asked

From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Ladd, of North Dakota, Republican,
who was backed last fall by the Non
partisan League, to-day introduced in
the Senate resolution providing for
referendum on war. He quoted Pres
ident Wilson'S statement at Indianapo-
lis September a, 1919: "If there had
been nine days of discussion Germany
would not have gone to war;" and
added:
The primary purpose and ultimate
object Of this resolution is to ascer-
tain the opinion of the American peo-
pie on the subject of engaging in a
war with foreign government except
10 repsl invasion or attack. Most of
the wars that have drenched the world
with blood would never have occurred
II the peoples who were engaged in
them had been consulted"
