The report declares that this photo

With this pledge of cooperation IN

It was apparent that the sentiment of
the gathering was expressed by Judge
Blount, for just after he had finished,
expressions were called for and many
were received.
Judge Blount spoke brifiy and
availed himself of the latitude of the
walrus, who remarked that "the time

marks were specific. rather than gem

selfishness which had arisen during
the war, when benefactions ceased to
be the monopoly of millionaires, and
became the privilege of the people.
He pointed out that what used to be
done in a philanthropic way by the
individual was now accomplished by
organization, and he expressed the
confidence that the machinery which
had been assembled in Pensacola. for
this thrust would function smoothly,
effectively and successfully.

CONGRESS FINALLY VOTES TOCUT
ARMY TO l75,OOO over PROTESTS
Both Pershing and Baker Asked
that No Reduction Below
100000 BE Made.
CONFERENCE Is CALLED
Resolutions i'm House and Senate
Are Nearly Identical But
Require Adjustment.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Congress
voted today to limit the size of the reg
ular army to 175,000 enlisted men. The
senate. by a vote of Al to 3s set aside
its decision of last week to reduce the
army to 10000 men, and then without
record vote adopted the original joint
resolution of Senator New. republican,
Indiana, directing the secretary of war
to stop recruiting until the army is
cut to 175,000 men,
Cease Enlistments.
The house ten minutes later adopted
joint resolution sponsored by Chair
man Kahn. of its military affairs COM
mittee, also directing the secretary of
war to cease enlistments until there are
not more than 175000 enlisted men in
the regular establishment. The house
vote was 2S5 to 4. only Representatives
Bee, Texas. Blaekmon, Alabama. and
Coady, Maryland. democrats. and
Cramton. Michigan. republican, stand
ing out against the reduction
The resolutions adopted by the two
houses are almost identical in their
provisions, each providing that the
175,0o0 limit shall not prevent the re-
enlistment of men who have served
one or more enlistments in the military
service. The language of the two
measures. however, differs somewhat.
and either the senate or the house will
send its resolution to conference for
rearrangements.
Baker Was Opposed
Action by the joint conference com
mittee Of the two houses is expected
TO be taken speedily and the resultant
measure sent to the president The
action of the two houses was taken
against the recommendations of the
war department heads and General
Pershing. Secretary Baker in appears
ing before the senate military affairs
committee advised against an army
of less than 100000 men after the pres
ent necessity of economy had been re-
lie sed. General Pershinga told the
same committee that an army of 200
600 men constituted a safety margin.
Fear Veto of Measure.
The vote in the senate showed that
several senators who last week went
on record as favoring an army af
10000 had changed about. placing
their support behind the 175.o0o figure
No reason for the change was an
nounced. but some senator's said pri-
vately that they believed President
Wilson would sign resolution plac-
ing the future army at 175.0oo men
but would not approve smaller mum
ber
There was no party division In The
senate on the question and the final
Votes were taken after an all day
battle over the question of army size
This debate was enlivened by clash
between Senator's Phelan. democrat
California, and Williams democrat
Mississippi. over the question of Japa-
nese aggression. Senator Phelan urged
stronger garrisoning of Pacific posts
and Senator Williams declared that
Japan had neither power nor desire
to fight this country over what may
be done in California regarding Japa-
nese questions.

TARIFF WILL
 ADD TO THE
 COST OF LIVING

(Continued from Page One) and we will have to pass it along to the consumer
 A. w. Kemfner,, representing saul sage casing importers and dealers, told the committee that the pro- posed duty of B per cent on sausage castings will mean an increase cost of frankfurters to the consumer of between two and three cents q pound
 Sausage castings are removed from the free list where they have been for 50 years" said MT, Kcmfncr. This will add onc-half cent pef pound to the cost of manufacturing sausage and by the time it reached the retailer it will mean an added cost of from two to three cents a pound.
 "I asked Mr. Fordney why this duty was put on. He said he did not know and that there had been mo discussion on it and that it had probably slipped in with lot of other things" "
 Mr Keminer said that 90 per cent of the sausage used for frankfurtcrS are imported and that the industry in this country does not need pro lection.
 f,f Ir | representing the American Asaocia- iion of Cattle Growers in Mexico, whose members own S,500,000 acres of land in Mexico and 95.000 head of stock cattle, representing d total investment of $19,000,000, asked that stock cattle under two years of age be permitted to come in free.
 E. E. Case of Raymond, Wash. and George Bergstrom of Everett Wash, representing Oregon and Washington shingle manufacturers defended the duty of 50 cents per 1000 pieces on shingles which is contained in the Fordney bill.
 Mir. Case said that most of tho shngle mills in Washington and Oregon are operating at about half | time and at a loss while Canadian mills are running full time and some lof them double time.
 Representative Johnson or Wash ington, who also appeared to sup bort the contention of the shingle manufacturers, said that the opposi- tiOn to the duty on shingles is back ed by Americans with capital invest ed in Canada.
 Several witnesses were heard rela- tive to reeds used in the manufac- ture of furniture. The furniture bill leaves rattan on the free list
