FORDNEY TARIFF
BILL WILL HAVE
RIGHT OF TRACK
Senate Expects to Vote On
the Measure Tuesday or
Wednesday; CongreSSion-
al Calendar damned.

Washington, Feb, J 3 Only fif-
teen working days are left congress
and none of the regular approprla-
ton bills has finally been enacted
and practically all important legis-
lation is in the air.
Early passage by the senate OF
the Fordney emergency tariff bill,
however. is expected to break the
lam, at least, of the appropriation
measures. Leaders believe that it
Istill possible with night sessions,
to get through all of the money
bills. except possibly, navy and
army appropriations.
The emergency tariff bill is to be
given right of way tomorrow in
the senate and vote is expected
by Tuesday or Wednesday,
The house plans to pass the last
two appropriation bills, the naval
and Notifications budgets early
this week and clear the way foE
other legislation and conference
reports. A half dozen appropria-
ton bills are waiting for the sem
ate.
The soldiers bonus bill probably
will be reported to the senate this
week by the finance committee,
probably with a provision defer
ring arrangements for increased
taxes to meet it's obligations. Final
disposition of it in the senate jam
is uncertain.
The house ways and means COM
mittee expects to conclude hear
ings this week on the tariff revis-
ion legislation for the next session.

ARCHBISHOP OF PRILADELP RlA TO
Be CREATED A CARDINAL AT THE
SECRET CONSISTORY NEXT MONTH
The Most Rev. Dennis J. Dougherty Is Slated
to Receive the Red Hat; He is Scheduled to
Arrive in Rome Feb. e and Will Be Re-
ceived With Honors Due His New Position.
tBY THE ASSOCIATED PREss1

Rome, Feb. 13.-The Vatican an
nounced today that the Most Rev.
Dennis j, Dougherty. archbishop of
Philadelphia, will be created a car
dinal at the secret consistory in
March.
Monsignor Dougherty will be the
only new American cardinal TO be
named. Archbishop Mundelein of
Chicago and Archbishop Hayes of
New York, although they probably
will receive the red hat. will not
be included in the appointments in
March, even as cardinals reserved
in Pectore. as the pontiff generally
has recourse to this system only
when there are weighty reasons not
to publish Immediately the crea-
ton Of certain cardinals.
No important reasons exist for
the maintenance Of secrecy over
the creation of American cardinals
and it is not believed that any TO
be reserved in Pectore will belong
to the United States.
In Vatican circles it is pointed
out that, according to the Catholic
doctrine, "the pope Is. the vicar Of
Christ on earth, represents the
divine authority, is the intermedi-
airy between heaven and the faith
full and fixes the dogma. as he Is
infallble because interpreting the
divinity and consequently can not
e subject to control or receive adj
vice as would befit a democratic
chief" g..
Therefore, the creation of cardi-
mails Is entrusted in an uncontron-
able way to the will Of the pontiff.
Monsignor Dougherty is expect
ed to arrive February 2S and will
BIZ received with the honors due to
his new status. "'"
An official list of the cardinals
to be appointed has been postponed
owing to the delay of the king of
Spain to reply that the choice Of
the pope for Spanish cardinals are
persona grata to him.
1t is understood that the king
has oonvoked council of min
listers to ask their opinion.

SHORT MILLION HOMES
IN GREAT BRITAIN
Shortage in London Alone Is
10000 and Rent Sign
Quickly Draws Crowd.

It is estimated that London is short
10000 houses and Premier Lloyd
George, speaking in the house of COM
mons. has placed the total house short
age for the whole Of the United King
dom at roughly 100000.
A house for rent notice board In
London quickly attracts a crowd.
Housing Is department of the min
istry Of health and. by legislative aq,
local authorities are required TO sub
NIT housing schemes. Thousands Of
schemes have been submitted, but prog
ress has been very slow.
Perhaps the chief reason for this
has been the economic factor. Houses
which cost three or four times as
much to build as before the war, can
not obviously let or sell ut prewar
figures.
Nevertheless, according TO govern
ment statistics, some 10000 new houses
were started in 1920 and the number
contracted for has risen during the
year from 10,400 TO 133,301.
One striking feature of the effort
to provide houses Is housing scheme
conducted by the office of works,
which was empowered to spend $780,
100000 spread over eighteen mouths
Its operations started In Camberwell,
a South London borough. An ar
rangement was made by which the
Office of works supplied the plans, ma
terial and supervision, while the local
Federation Of Trades unions supplied
the labor and the borough council as
sumed responsibility for the finances.
The plan worked smoothly and houses
were built for $4,000 apiece, saving
of at least $1,000 making total saw
ing to taxpayers of S2,0000Oo, This
scheme may become the embryo Of a
state building department.
The financial difficulties connected
with the housing problem have been
responsible for the creation by local
authorities Of Understanding "hous-
ing bonds" which are in some locali-
ties a fairly popular investment.
In the north of England, concrete
houses have become popular, as ma
chinery largely replaces man-power In
their erection. In some parts Of Lon
don, too, such houses have been built
recently, owing to the shortage Of
bricks, the high rate of wages and
other difficulties.
