Will You Love Me When You See

Wy AAuIIhT

Some years Ago
A love sick guy was on his knees
upon the parlor floor,
He told his girl the old, old wheeze
that she had heard before,
But when he asked her eyes or
No" and waited with a sigh.
He nearly tainted when she sprung
this most unique reply;
Will you love me when you see me
in the morning.
At dawning, when I'm yawning
For my sun-kissed golden hair,
Will be hanging on a chair,

warning;
confess that I look different in

That's a way we modern ladies

For my shape at which you look
Will be hanging on a hook,

Her words reused up his sympa-
thy, but filled his heart with fear,
He wondered if she knew that he
possessed a rubber ear;
So he replied, "I'll marry you, but
listen to me first,
For in exchange for what you've
said I'll let you know the worst:
Will you love me when you see me
in the morning.
At dawning, from the awning?

Unions VIII Oppose
Changes Recommended
By Samuel Untermeyer

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-Incorpora-
ton of building trades unions under
the state law and raising the age
limit of apprentices to 25 years, in
cluded in the Lockwood committees
proposals for Kidding the industry of
Objectionable practices" will be Wig
orously opposed, it was stated today,
after a four-hour session of union
officials.
They met to discuss the 10 de-
mands Of Samuel Untermeyer, the
committee chief counsel. These two
suggestions which are placed in the
first group, they declared, were in
direct opposition to the fixed policy
of the American Federation of Labor
and would be fought to the last ditch.
The labor organizations represent
ed were the American Federation
of Labor. state federation of Ia
Dor, central trades and labor coun-
Gil and the building trades council.
The second group contained pro-
posals, the delegates asserted, af-
fecting the constitutions of the in
ternational unions and could only be
dealt with in national convention.
Suggestions in the third group con-
corning abolition of arbitrary regu-
lations, the union leaders said, could
best be carried out by getting the
local union representatives to meet
the Lockwood committee and reach
an agreement.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-The
fight for an import duty on crude

Senator Harreld, Republican, Okla

of 81 a barrel on crude, and w. H.
Gray, of Tulsa, speaking for the
National Association of Independent
Oil Producers, urged that American
producers be put on equal footing
with those in Mexico, Columbia and

Commission Reverses
Florida Cattle Case
OnPlea Of Railroads

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-The in
ability of the Florida cattle to stand
the rigors of travelling played a
large part today in causing the in
terstate commerce commission to re-
verse a decision made by it in 1917.
At that time the commission, act
ing on the complaint of Miller broth
ers, Bless, Okla, and other live stock
corporations, found that rates on
cattle from, northern Florida and
Birmingham, Ala, to Memphis,
Tenn, were unreasonable, and
awarded PREPARATIONS and set reason
able rates.
The railroads, which included the
Atlantic coast line; Georgia, South
ern and Florida; st. Louis-San
Francisco, and the Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific, refused to pay
the claims, stating that if they
should be required to pay all or a
considerable portion of it at would
undoubtedly wipe out every dollar
we have earned in the hadling Of
cattle to the west" and petitioned
the commission to reopen the case.
In their plea the roads laid stress
upon the special character Of the
service in connection with the ship
ment Of cattle, and charged that
due partially to the inherent weak
ness of Florida cattle and their pc
culiar inability to stand transporta-
ton for considerable distances" the
damage claims were unusually large,
thereby necessitating the rates they
maintained

Major Opie said he had written

FRANCE AND SPAIN
WAGE TARIFF WAR
BY HIRAM X. MODERWELL


Especial Dispatch to The Atlanta Journal
and Chicago Daily News-Copyright, 1921
PARIS, France, Dec. -C.-Today
the Franco-Spanish commercial ac-
cord ceases to exist and tariff war
begins which, though bloodless, will
be bitter and destructive. This is
interesting as showing the French
attitude toward the high protective
policy which seems to be gaining
ground throughout the world. Brief
ly, France resents high tariffs which
endanger her exports and is pre-
pared to fight against them vigor-
ously.
The writer is informed that the
prospect of the passage of the Amer
lean Fordney tariff bill even in a
modified form is arousing keen mis-
givings here, commercial circles re-
garding it as in violation Of the prin-
ciple on which the present Franco
American commercial relations rest.
1t is said that the business men will
urge the government to renounce it's
tariff arrangement with the United
States and retaliate as it is now re-
taliating again st Spain. They re-
sent especially the American valua-
ton plan in the Fordney bill.
This feeling is shared by nearly
all American business men here. The
American Chamber of Commerce in
Paris has been conducting a strong
campaign against the measure.
Judge Walter Berry, president of the
chamber, says that the opposition
continues in spite Of President Har-
ding's desire, as shown in his mes
sage to congress that American val
uation should not hamper commerce.
However, Mr.. Berry finds that Amer
lean business men in Paris are de-
lighted over Harding's appeal for a
flexible tariff.
"Our chamber" said Mr.. Berry,
has for years urged an elastic tariff,
permitting our government to bar
gain with other countries. This is
business common sense. We well
come this new policy which is urged
for the first time in American tariff
history"
1t is not known here whether tar
if f1exibility will mitigate the alleged
evil effects OF American valuation
Much confusion e-ists concerning
the American tariff policies and it
would seem clear that semi-official
explanations in Paris might prevent
serious misunderstanding with con-
sequent danger of commercial rup-
ture.
The Spanish tariff war is no j-::e.
The French, claiming that their eX-
ports are subjected to a triple duty
b. Spain have drawn up a series #
practically prohibitive tariffs against
Spain. This, it is expected, will
largely destroy a commerce which
for the first nine months Of this
year amounted to 300,O0O,O00 francs
$3.50, ,000) in French imports and
450,O00,000 francs ($9o,000,000) in ex-
ports.
