ARE NATIONALISTIC
weld.wide farIff Movement Based on
Revival Of Spirit Of M.
t1Onallam.

Washington, D. c. : Some time ago
tho Republican Publicity Association
called attention to list Of countries
which had adopted the protective tar
III idea and enacted appropriate legis-
laticn to make It effective. Topping
this list was Great Britain, which, in
her so-called Safeguarding Of indus
tries" act has provided for a duty OF
80 per cent. on an exhaustive list OF
articles, which may be added to as
the commission authorized by that act
may see tit. Other countries mention
ed, with q summary Of what they had
done In this particular, were Austria
British East Africa, British Honduras,
Jugaslavia, Rumania, Australia, the
Barbados, Czechoslavakia, Latvit,
France, Japan and Argentina, all OF
which have devised, or are revising
their tariff schedules upward.
Great Britain is extending her
safeguarding Of industries act In
every conceivable fashion, some OF
the extensions being amusing. In the
case Of composite articles, of which
ar article liable to duty forms a part,
the duty is to be charyeable against
the dutiable part. Hence, a doll with
lamp-blown glass eles, pays duty on
the eyes, and an electric lamp with
tungsten wire filament, pays duty on
the filament.
To this list of protection countries
the association now adds Finland,
which, according to the Department OF
Commerce is considering "a general
tariff revision along protective lines
with a great increase in import duties,
and an early adoption is predicted"
Monthly Commerce Reports state that
German import duties have been
doubled by a decree effective Novem-
Der 49," The new tariff Of Latvia be-
came effective October 18th.
Polish import duties on luxury
goods. payable in paper marks, have
bden increased from 300 times the
gold rate to 800 times those basic
rates, and on those ordinary commod-
tiles not specified in any other list,
comprising ordinary merchandise, the
duties, as paid in paper currency
have been increased from $50 times
the basic gold rates to 400 times those
rates. This is said to Offset consider
ably the fall Of exchange, hence 1t
means higher protection.

that "a recent decree has increased all

Stretch in Georgia
MANY VICTIMS NEGROES
School House Twisted to Pieces but
Only One Child Suffered Serious
Injury.

Oconee, Ga, Feb. 10.--A tornado
that struck the Gardner settlement.
one mi from here, shorty after
noon today brought death to two
white persons and nearly 30 Ne-
gre and serious injury to FIVE
white persons and more than a score
Of Negroes.
A stretch of land extending al
most to Toomsboro. nearly five m les
long and about half a nile wide, was
as barren as a prairie tonight. Not a
bu lding or tree was left standing.
Among the dead Is Benjam Orr,
IA, who was decapltated. The other
h.te person who met death was the
threeyears.old daughter of L. L.
M nor, manager Of Shepherds s comm s.
sary at the plant Of the Cleveland
Oconee lumber company.
The Negroes were all employees Of
the lumber company The casualty list
would have been much larger, it was
stated, had It not been for the fact
that the storm struck during the noon
hour, when scores Of the employees had
gone to their homes
While the winds fury centered
about the plant of the Cleveland
Oconee company, the main building
just completed a few weeks ago, was
practically unharmed, One of the old
buildings was wrecked and so dwell
ings, homes of Negro employees, were
demolished. Stacks OF about 2,000,-
600 feet of lumber in the yards We're
leyeled.
A relief train took the injured to
Saundersyille and Tennille.
The lumber plant was valued at
100000, but it was stated tonight
no estimate could be made Of the dam
age dcne by the storm
L ghty-two children and three
teachers were in school building on
the edge of the Gardner settlement
when the tornado struck. The bu ID
ing was twisted TO pieces and the
fragments scrattered for niles Chill
dren were picked ND by the wind and
carried for some distance. but it was
announced tonight that only one was
seriously bru sed. Approximately 40
houses were blown down in the Gard
ner settlement. The Shepherd Bros
commissary at the big lumber plant
was reduced to kindling wood. Orr
and four Negroes meeting death there.
Ten feet away from the commissary,
the general Office of the Cleveland
Oconee lumber company was un-
touched.

TO CLIMB MOUNT EVEREST
British Royal Geographical Society
said TO Be Contemplating Am
bilious Expedition.

Enormous interest has been aroused
by the announcement that the Royal
Geographical society contemplates fit
ting out an expedition to attempt the
ascent of Mount Everest, in the
Hlmalayas. For not only Is this the
highest mountain on the globe but IL
is also the worlds mystery mountain.
Although il was discovered 20 years
ago, no European has yet succeeded
in getting anywhere nearer than about
fifty niles to it, much less setting foot
on It's slopes.
This is because II so happens that It
is situated partly in Nepal and partly
in Tibet, and the governments Of both
these countries object TO the presence
of European explorers.
Besides this the Nepal base Of the
giant mountain is in any case prac-
tically unapproachable, owing TO the
dense jungle growth, extending for n
width Of 80 or 20 miles all round, and
into whose depths no white man may
venture and live.
The proposal now IS to attempt the
ascent from the TIbetan side. This is
doubtless possible, but whether the
summit can be reached or not Is an.
other matter.
Most experts say not, and point to
the fact that the duke Of Abruzzi's
attempt TO scale Mount Godwln-Aus-
TIM EvereSts mighty nelghbor, and
the second highest peak in the world,
resulted In failure.
