Late yesterday afternoon one boat
was washed ashore near Anglesea.
Three bodies were picked up along a
five mile stretch OF beach. 1t is al
most a certainty their eight compan-
Ions were drowned too. fishermen
declared to-day
When the first boat was washed
ashore. search was started and the
second boat was found capsized near
a buoy There was no one In either
boat. The boats were owned by the
Hilton n Hilton Fish Company.
The bodies recovered have been
identified. according to Coroner In

Chief OF Police Thompson set up
two searchlights on shore last night
and started an all night search of
the shore while Coast Guard men
continued to search on the sea. They
thought some OF the victims might bs
found clinging to the floating pound
poles. but none were found.
Among fishermen and Coast Guard
men the theory most generally 40
cepted as to the cause OF the acci =
dent was that the boats wsro loaded
down heavily with pound poles and
swamped by the heavy seas.

TARIFF BILL
f. CONFERENCE
Following Action of Senate
in Passing Measure i.
63 to 20
i RADICALLY CHANGED
/ FROM HOUSE VERSION
AS to Anti-Dunping and
Currency REGULATION
Sections

Washington, D. c., May l2.--Senate
and House conferees will begin their
efforts to reach an agreement on the
emergency tariff and anti-dumping bill
probably tomorrow. The measure was
passed by the Senate late yesterday.
Although amendments offered from
the floor were promptly defeated in the
Senate, the bill differs radically from
that passed by the House, the anti
dumping and currency re-valuation
sections having been entirely re-writ-
ten and provision made for continuing
wartime restrictions on imports OF
dye -stuffs by the Senate finance com.
mittee. The tariff features, however
were kept intact.
The vote on passage yesterday was
60 to rs, seven Democrats joining with
the Republicans on the final roll call
and but one Republican, Moses, OF
New Hampshire voting against it. The
bill will be effective for six months
by which time leaders hope to see the
permanent tariff bill, now being
framed ythe House ways and means
committee, acted into law.
