-FOUR AMENDMENTS Tackled
ONTO F0RDNEY MEASURE
Bill Has Chance for Final vote.-Re.
publicans Claim Prospects Good
for Its Passage

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE senate got
down to business with the Fordney
emergency tariff bill yesterday and
before the session ended, four amend
ments had been adopted. Votes on
the amendments, where record was
made, showed supporters of the bill
10 have majority ranging from 10
TO H.
As the situation stood last night 1t
appeared that the bin would be for the
most part actually as well as techni-
cally under consideration until H.
nal vote Is reached. Senator Penrose
tH), Pennsylvania, In charge Of the
bill declared 1t had good prospects of
a passage next week.
The committee amendment to estab-
fish an import duty of 40 cents a bush.
el on wheat was twice adopted yester-
day. 1t was first taken up with only
nine senators In the chamber and ac-
cepted without dissenting voice.
Then Senator Harrison Cd. Mississip-
pi, bitter opponent of the measure,
discovered what had happened and
forced call for a quorum. He said
he was under the impression the SEN
ate was still considering a minor In
dian bill.
After the quorum call Senator Nc
Cumber (R, North Dakota, asked for
reconsideration of the wheat amend
ment, and 1t again was agreed to, 3S
to ~, The amendment exempting from
tariff duty rice to be used In the
manufacture of canned goods likewise
was adopted. The committee amend
ment fixing duties of two cents a
pound on fresh meats and OF % per
cent ad valorem on prepared or pre-
served meats and exempting from Inn
port duties all livestock Imported ex-
clusively for breeding purposes also
was approved.

ORDER ARGENTINE'S WHEAT
QUOTATIONS OFF THE BOARD
President Chicago Board Of Trade
Says "They Do Not Inteiligently

Chicago, Feb 3.-President Joseph
P. Griffin of the Chicago board of
trade last night issued an order dis
continuing the posting of Argentine
grain quotations at the board and in a
statement accompanying the order de-
clared the quotations do not intelli-
gently reflect the supply and demand
situation
Il suggest that members of our ex-
change, the grain trade generally. the
press and news distributing agencies
for the present refrain from giving any
publicity to so-called grain quotations
from Argentine markets" the state
ment said. ut Is fact generally con
coded that these purported quotations
do not intelligently reflect the supply

few powerful European grain import

tirely dominate the grain markets in
that country. The present market
quotations are deceptive, in that the
offerings of wheat TO Europe are made
conditional upon the buyer assuming
the Argentine export tax. which natu-
rally must be added to the price. II

PREMIER TALKS
ON PREPARATIONS
FRANCE KNOWS WHAT IT Is GO.
ING TO GET NOW, SAYS sRI-
AND BEFORE CHAMBER
MAKES REPLY TO TARDIEU
Asks That Decisions BE Either Accept

That Can Be Obtained From
Germany Under Conditions

Paris. Feb. 5.-The French chamber
Of deputies yesterday heard from Pre-
mier BRAND his explanation Of the
negotiations at the recent reparations
conference In Paris and an assertion
by the premier that the decisions
reached ~ the conference we're the
best obtainabie for France from Ger
many under the conditions obtaining
1T the present.
The premier requested the chamber
either TO accept or reject the decisions
as whole. II was decided that all
the deputies who had indicated their
desire 10 be heard should speak before
II vote was taken on the question and
the decision was postponed until next
Tuesday
II have done the best that could"
said NJ BRAND. III there Is n min In
this chamber who has n better prnc-
ticable program. let him come to the
front"
Previously Andre Tnrdeu, former
high commissioners 10 the United
States. had continued the criticism of
the government on the PREPARATIONS
agreement begun Thursday His argu-
ment amounted to criticism of the al
lied agreements. All of the argu-
mcnts, he said. tended to show that
France was in too great hurry and
should have waited u few weeks to
consult the new American administra-
tlon. NJ. Brands time was occupied
In replying to NJ. Tardieu and com
pairing the work accomplished by the
peace conference. Of which NJ. Tardleu
was member of the French delega-
ton when II was working under bet
ter conditions and which. the premier
said, failed to obtain better results.
THE Versailles treaty is complete"
exclaimed the premier. There Is moth
ing lacking In if--only 1t Is not alive"
The Versailles treaty, In order to be eff
fectlve. nj, BRAND continued. must rely
on the work of the PREPARATIONS com
mission.
In tone In which some members
declared they noted sadness, NJ. Bri-
and said he realized he had been I'M
able TO obtain as much for France as
was due her. owing to her great sacri-
fices In the war; but that ut any rate
he bad succeeded In bringing the situa-
tion out OF chaos, uncertainty and I'M
easlness which had obtained since the
signing of the Versailles treaty.
I'VE won't get az much as we de-
serve. but at least we know what we
are going to get the premier de
ciared.
Concerning NJ. Tardieu's argument
that the German debt should be mo
biiixed' and discounted. Nj, BRAND
said.
IF there was the remotest posi-
bllity of dlscounting this debt OF obi
gation--wblch Is impossible, owing to
the troubled condition of the worlds
money market---we should refuse To do
so. ms we should lose too much ON ex.
