Harrison Resents
Interference" of
President Harding

Washington, July 1t.--President
Harding was attacked today by Sena-
tor Harrison, Democrat, Mississippi,
for visiting the Capitol last week and
urging deferment of the soldiers bo-
nus bill. The president, Senatr Har-
rison told the Senate, disregarded pub
lie promises made carly in his admin
lstTation to avoid interfering with
congressional prerogatives.
Addressing Senate Republicans, Sen
ator Harrison said:
For eight long wears you abused
this side Of the aisle saying we were
nothing but rubber stamps and re-
sponded only 70 the will Of the pres
ident. We, thank God, responded to
requests for Legislation Ior the people
You respond to requests for the de-
feat of legislation for the people"
Senator Harrison recalled that the
president had opposed the Knox peace
resolution and, at first. the Borah
disarmament proposal. 1t also was
rcporte, Senator Harrison said, that he
opposed the Senate packer contro!
bill. These, he said. were instances
of executive interference.

MAKE
FUNNY CRACKS IN
TARIFF BILL DEBATE.

Washington, July 1.-THE Fordney
tariff bill was alternately condemned
and praised in a six hour session of
the House today. In a speech which
publicans, Rep. Collier of Mississippi,
a Democratic member of the Ways
and Means committee charged that
Chairman F'ordney had permitted thu
committee TO hear only one side OF
the case in framing the measure.
Mr.. Collier declared the Americ n
people had asked for duty-free meat
and they got lava and skeletons; that
they asked for free sugar and got Chi
nese joss sticks.
This Fordney bill has put rates SO
high" he said, that the people will
suffer deprivation. The bill let's leech-
es without duty. American leeches
have been hanging around the Ways
and Means committee for months
asking for rates so that that they
would draw the very life blood of the
people. and l fail 10 see the logic OF
letting the other leeches in without
being taxed upon their American va
uGtion.'
The Republican speakers included
: Rep. Wurzbach of eXas. who chll
lenged the Democratic members ii
his state delegation to vote for bill,
which, he said, would help their pco
pie as much as those of any other sec-
ton. Support for the mea sure also
was voiced by Rep. Martin of Louisi-
ana, 4 Democratic member of h
Ways and Means committee, who al
nounced that he felt it would be benc-
fetal to the south
The days debate was marked by an
attack on half a dozen sections of tho
bill by Rep. Frcar of Wisconsin, the
only Republican member of the COM
| mittee, which drafted the bill, who
has not lined up with the majority.
