vote Of the striking marine engi-
neers will be taken throughout the
country to-day to decide whether or
not they will accept the agreemen
their representatives negotiated for
them in Washington Friday.
The shipowners who operate their
own vessels declared specifically
through Winthrop L. Marvin, vice
president and general manager of the
American Steamship Owners Associa-
ton yesterday that they would not
accept the agreement, or sign any
agreement with the seamen's unions.
SO far as they are concerned they Will
stand by the Is per cent reduction ir
wages and the changes in working
rules which they put into effect on
May /, when the strike was called, it
was said
Should the marine engineers vote to
accept the proposals agreed upon be-
tween their representatives and Ad-
niral William s. Benson, chairman Of
the United States Shipping Board, the
Shipping Board will be in open COM
petition with privately Ameri-
can ships operating under lower labor
costs.
The Shipping Board owns four
sevenths of the American merchant
marine, and fully so per cent of it's
ships were idle before the strike was
called because of existing economic
conditions. The proposals which Ad-
miral Benson finally acceded to, after
pressure from the Administration, in
volved the acceptance of the Is per
cent reduction in wages by the marine
workers in return for certain modifi-
cations in working conditions, recog-
milton of the unions and a years agree
ment on the terms.
Most shipping experts yesterday de-
clared that in the event the vote to-
day favors compromise, it will not .be
long before all the nation-owned ships
will be forced into the hands of pri-
yate companies because the government,
through the Shipping Board, will not
be able to meet the competition of the
cheaper operated ships flying the same
flag.

the question Of the island of Zap be-
tween Japan and the United States.
This. is described as In keeping with
JapaNss foNey frankly to discuss with
the rev administration in Washington
all problems that arise between Japan
and America, In an endeavor TO reach
coopertive accord.
The opinion is expressed that Ja-
peA will offer son,e form of inter.
n9tsona,iSatiens OF the cables affected.
Although Ianan will seek political
arrangement with Anerjca, says the
Jji Shimpo, it thinks the legal mat
terS involved must be settled between
America and the Allies as whole.
WASHINGTON, May 2s. Proposals
from Japan for Observation-Disclosures of
cables touching at the Island of zap
probably would be in line with sug-
gestions made at the Communications
Conference, now in recess, it was said
here to-day. The Japanese negotia-
tors let it be known then that Japan
was not averse to some Kind of in
ternatienal control of the cables, pro-
vided that could be arranged without
inlpairing the political control of Japan
over the island ander mandate.
American representatives at the con-
ference were not willing to separate
the issues, preferring to settle once for
all questions as to legality of the man
dates under which Japan holds posses
sion of zap, the British occupation OF
Mesopotamia and British colonial pos,
sessions control of former German
owned territories and islands.
It was believed the Toxic dispatch
had reference to this situation in speak
ing of the political as opposed to the
legal issues involved,
So far no move has been made in
Washington to begin new exchanges on
the subject, Officials on both sides
have been looking forward to the con-
sideration of the mandate question at
an early meeting of the Supreme Coun-
ell in accordance with the promise of
the French government in answer to
Secretary Colby's letter on the subject.
1t was said that if instructions from
Toxic were on the way to that effect,
however, there was no reason why
another effort should not be made to
secure special arrangement for the
joint or international operation of the
Yap cables, leaving the Supreme Coun-
Gil to consider the political question
involved in the mandates at it's leisure

Republicans
Split ON Four
Tariff Issues
Framing of Law Complicat-
ed by Inability to Agree
ON Rates OH Chemicals,
Cotton, Wool and Silk
Dye Embargo Is Opposed
Duties ON Raw and Manu-
featured Products I'll e i d
To BE Disproporiionate

WASHINGTON, May 28.-Republican
members of the House Ways and Means
Committee, preparing a final draft of
the general tariff bill, were said to-
night to be at odds over four impor-
tart schedules in the new measure.
What was described as an open split
has occurred in the writing of sched
ules for chemicals, cotton, wool and
silks.
Despite the lack Of agreement on
these schedules and the fact that some
others have passed only the sub-co
mittee stage, Chairman Fordney held
to his prediction of June 10 as the date
of introduction. Some members Of the
committee, however, declared the House
would not receive the measure short
of June 20. The chemical schedule, it
was said, has resulted in continual
ton of the fight against the further
use of restrictions, other than by tariff
rates. on the importation of dyestuffs.
Mr.. Fordney is understood to have an
nounced his vigorous opposition in the
committee to any plan savoring of an
embargo, although he was willing to
allow the application of high rates.
Irritations Still Remain
The chemical provisions, it was
understood, have been put at the bot
tom of the list of schedules awaiting
consideration. No indication was given
when they would be taken up again
and but few members were said to feel
THAT the mere passing over of the pro
visions would eliminate the sore spots
already caused
Neither the committee nor the
full Republican membership has sue
ceeded in establishing basic rates on
the silk schedule, while sectional views
were said to have been reflected in the
attempt to fix rates on cotton and its
products. The New England element
in the committee was said to be fight
ing against the rates on cotton prod
ucts. contending they were dispropor-
tionate to the rates on the raw product
Subcommittee drafts of the sched-
ules on earthenware, paper, sundries
and minerals are understood to have
been accepted by the majority mem
bers at the committee.
Longworth Idea Attacked
The Senate Finance Committee
will make careful inquiry into
the constitutionality of the Long
worth proposal for interim tariff
legislation. This was made plain in
Finance Committee circles to-day. In
fact, experts already are at work, at
the instance of Chairman Penrose, to
examine into the constitutional ques-
tions involved. 1t is asserted on rood
authority they already have found some
serious snags.
Chairman Penrose has announced
that the Finance Committee. has closed
its hearings on tax revision. 1t may be
necessary later to hold hearings of a
brief nature. The committee will meet
next week in executive session to CON
slider the various tax plans, and doubt
less will formulate tentative recon-
meEdations, which will be communica-
ted to the House Ways and Means Com
nlittee.
The committee, before making any
recommendations, will confer with
Treasury experts and will get detailed
information from Secretary Mellon as
to the governments needs in respect to
revenue.

with the revenues and fiscal affairs Of
the government" said Senator penrose
"and 1t embarrasses Vt co put a lot Of
police under the jurisdiction of the
department"
Present Situation Is Bad
Saying he could not vet tell what
plans would be worked out, Senator
penrose added:
"Some urge n superintendent fol
each state, others favor prohibition
head for each Federal judicial district
as the more effective way to enforce
the law
"The present system is looked on as
inefficient and wasteful and demoralig-
ing in many of its aspects, and il re.
quires drastic treatment"
Senator Penrose indicated that
though the Finance Committee has
tariff revision and tax revision on its
hands these would not prevent it from
taking UP the question of new methot
of enforcing the dry law.
The impression at the Capitol is that
even though enforcement is not trans.
ferred to the Department of Justice
there will be revision of the present
law as to the administrative personnel
A new prohibition commissioner is
looked for without much delay to sue
ceed John f. Kramer.
Another development to-day with re,
spect to prohibition enforcement was
in connection with the second def.
cheney bill, pending before sub com
mittee OF the Senate Appropriations
Committee.
Mr.. Kramer appeared before the sub.
committee to urge that the 5000, ,00O
additional money allowed him by the
House for enforcement the rest of this
fiscal year be kept in the bill by the
Senate.
Needed for Enforcement.
Mr.. Kramer told the subcommittee
that the money was essential if law
enforcement was to continue the rest
of this fiscal year. He pointed out
that not only had he been obliged to
lay off hundreds of enforcement Off
GERS but if the S200,000 were not forth
coming he would have to lay off more
Mr.. Kramer was advised by Senator
Warren, chairman, to ask the enforce
ment officers to continue their duties
in the expectation that the necessary
money would be forthcoming Mr.
Kramer thought they would do this. 1t
ia expected the appropriations commit
tee will elbow the 100000 item and
that the Senate will support it.
Wayne B. Wheeler, counsel for the
Anti-Saloon League, has asked the
subcommittee to allow the 100000.

 He did not have to wait long for the Squirrel brothers were always up bright and early and called for Tom mic Rabbit to come out and find some fun.
 They came running along the path that led past the house where Grand pa Fox lived, when Billy Squirrel, who was quicker than the others, ran into Grandpa's yard.
 He spied the nuts and back he went as quick as flash and told the news to the others.
 Tommie Rabbit did not care very much for the nuts, but he ran with Billy and his brother, and he spied the basket of radishes.
 Looking around all three of them made sure that Grandpa was not in sight, and then they took all the nuts and radishes they could carry, and from his window Grandpa pounded the sill with the big stick and shouted: "DrOp those, you little rascals; drop them"
 Grandpa Fox knew that was all that was needed to make them carry off the nuts and radshes, so he pounded and called until they were out of sight.
 "Stolen sweets are always the sweetest" he said. That may be true in some cases, but I'll wager my pipe those youngsters will find out that is not true saying always
 And they did, for Billy Squirrel did not bother Grandpa Fox any more. Such sneezing was never heard in the woods before, even the chicken with the whooping cough did not sneeze any harder, though they all found their heads and tails were safe when it was over.
 Their mouths and throats were burned too, and so for many days they suffered for their badness and now old Grandpa Fox can sit all day in the sun and no one bOthers him.

ALBERTA

A LBERTA, meaning nobIy bright, l1 has it's origin in the Teutonic Ian Suage. It is one of the names com ing from the nobility of which Aethel Is the root.
 Aethelbryht was it's first form though it was d masculine name and was given to the first Christian king of England. The famous bishop of Prague, who was martyred near Dant- zig while preaching to the heather PrussianS in 997. was called Adel- brecht and his fame spread. the use of Europe.
 Italy received it and, straightway changed 1t to Alberto It is from this latter that the feminine forms. Al berta and Albertine, were formed. The husband of the late Queen Vic toria, who bore the name of Albert. brought both the masculine and fem mine into great vogue in England. In deed. it has since been accepted as & national name.
 
 masculine and feminine equivalent, Alberta has no really individual ex- istence. After all. she is merely a masculine name with feminine termination. But unlike many of her contemporaries, such as Edwina and Roberta, she is almost frivolously feminine and is not regarded as sub- stitute name for the hOped-for son and heir who was to have been called Albert.
