The Anti-Saloon league of New

months to get accurate figures as
to the number of saloons that have
gone out of business and the num-,

sections of the city, after tabulat-
ing every former saloon in Man

figures for First, Second and Third
avenues and will give out those for
other districts when they are COM

TARIFF BILL IS
0PTED; SENT
To WHITE HOUSE
House, BY a Vote of PAS
to 81, Adopts the Con-
ference Report to Which
the Senate Had Agreed.

Washington, May 23'--The long
battle in congress over the emerg-
ency tariff bill ended today when
the house, by a vote of 245 to 81,
adopted the conference report to
which the senate had agreed. The
measure was sent to the White
House where it is expected to be
signed soon by the president.
The emergency measure passed
in the closing days of the last ses-
sion was vetoed by President Will
son, but Immediately re-introduced
in the present extra session.
1t carries tariff duties on thirty
odd farm products, together with
compensatory duties on articles
manufactured from them. 1t also
empowers the secretary of the
treasury to employ penalties in
staving off dumping of foreign
made goods, continues the wartime
control over importations of dyes
ana operates to clarity tangles in
the assessment of duties which re-
suit from fluctuating exchange
rates
During the long debate opponents
of high tariff predicted retaliatory
action by Canada, by South Amer
lca and by some nations of Europe.
Chairman Fordney, of the house
ways and means committee, which
drafted the bill. said, however. no
protests had come.
Only a slight furry of opposition
appeared as the bill went into roll
call today.

SUMMERLIN EN- ROUTE
TO CITY OF MEXICO

Washington, Mry 22.--George T.

American embassy at Mexico City,
was on his way to Mexico City to-
day bearing instructions for con-
ference with President Obregon,
which officials here hope will be

There is a right of contract If

justice" he continued. ANY eff
fort which contemplates coercion
and force is an interference with
our conception of American liberty
and is justly denounced by Ameri-
can law.
1T is true that we hold to the
theory Of equality, not of character
or possession, but equality of op-
portunity and equality before the
law. This does not mean that the
government guarantees any stand
ard of achievement to it's citizens,
but that in its dealings with them
1t will grant to all an opportunity
to be heard and the right to a de-
cision based on the evidence and
the law without favor and without
prejudice. 1t is the belief of an
American that he creates oppor-
tunity, that his achievement, his
destiny, his greatness, lie not in

Resist RadiCalism.
There is need to resist radical
ism because 1t is a disturbing and
wasteful element.
This does not mean resistance

He asserted that the liberty given
to all under the constitution was

Of individual thought and action

said. I'm America this reduces
itself to the absurdity of overthrow

There is discomfort and unem-

Commissioner Kramer Is
Given 100000 Addi-
tionaI to Enforce the VOL
stead Act Until July |.
WRANGLING PRECEDES
ACTION ON THE BILL
Enforcement Officer Is
Charged With InCurring
the Deficit; Measure Now
Goes to the Senate.
(By The Associated Press,J

Washington, May %. -
After heated discussion of
the prohibition question dur
ing which Commissioner
Kramer was bitterly criti-
cized and as vigorously de-
Tended, the house today
voted an additional 100000
for enforcement of the Vol
stead act until July /.
Representative Volstead
proposed the increase in the
total of the deficiency ap-
preparation bill to permit re-
tention on the federal pay
rolls of 700 prohibition
agents who, Mr.. Kramer
had announced, would be
dropped for the remainder
of the fiscal year because of
shortage of funds.
Can Demand Another Vote.
The amendment was adopted,
II to 3S, less than one-fourth of
the house membership being pres
ent, but another vote can be de-
manded before the bill is passed.
Even the members who favored
the amendment, however, doubt
ed whether 1t would afford relief
in time to be of much value, in
asmuch as the bill after passage
by the house must go to the sem
ate.
During the wranglng, Chair
man Good of the appropriations
committee, who opposed the Vol
stead amendment, said Mr.. Kram-
er had violated penal provisions Of
law by incurring a deficit and had
made himself liable to Jail sen-
tence."
II want Mr.. Kramer to obey
the law just as much as bootleg
gers" he declared, after adding
that $6,900,000 had been appro-
priated for prohibition enforce
ment during the current fiscal
year.
Mr.. Kramer was defended by
Representative Byrne, Tennessee,
ranking democrat on the appro-
priations committee, as a consci-
entious official doing his best to
enforce the law.
Mr.. Volstead defended Mr..
Kramer's administration, declar-
ing there was no ground for criti-
cism.
Declaring no estimate for addi-
tional funds for prohibition en-
forcement had been submitted to
the appropriations committee and
that no one had appeared before
the committee to explain the Sit
uation, Mr.. Byrnes said that if the
secretary of the treasury had re-
quested funds he would have got
ten all he wanted.
Hospital Facilities.
As the house muled through the
deficiency bill today, a provision
for the creation of an office of
first assistant secretary of the
treasury at salary of $4,000 a
year, and an amendment providing
for purchase by the government of
800, 100000 of farm loan bank
bonds, were eliminated on points
of order.
One provision approved would
permit the treasury department to
spend any part of the $1S,600, 900
appropriated last session for ad-
ditional hospital facilities for dis
abled service men in the improve
ment of existing facilities. The
original bill provided that $12,-
100000 was to be expended for
new hospitals,

After a two-hour examination
Mrs. Bergdoln came up smiling
for the committee refused to send
her before the bar of the house for

times when the witness. rising

tion.
1t was while Representative
Johnson, republican, Kentucky,
had the witness in hand that the
clash occurred, which caused him

with contempt. The committee,
however, thought best to decide

And varied must have been the

came to her anchorage amid the

bivouac of the dead, entered the
piers which served as a temporary

lads whose flag-draped coffins COW
