following conference at the Dis

TARIFF BILL NEAR
END OF LONG FIGHT
Expected to Pass House To.
day; Struggle Due in
Senate Tomorrow.

The tariff bill is now ready for
Senate before President Harding
makes it law with his signature.
AS agreed in conference. the bill
was presented to the House, yes
terday, where it rests for one day
under the rules and then comes up
for final approval
The House is expected to pass the
measure today. and the Senate fight
is expected to begin tomorrow.
Most of the struggle is looked for
over the dye embargo provisions and
the potash rates.
Chairman McCumber, of the SEN
ate Finance Committee. denying the
repeated charges of the Democrats
that the measure means a boost TO
the cost of living, insists that on
very stable article there has GER
tainly been reduction over the
present emergency tariff, and in
many cases a reduction lower than
the rates in any previous tariff
bill"
Senators Simmons. of South Caro-
lima. and Walsh, of Massachusetts,,
the minority Senate conferees. de-
clare that the high cost of living is
bound to increase as a result of the
new tariff. They insist the bill
maintains all the iniquitous fea-
lures that have made il so obnox-
iOus to the sense of justice and
fairness of the American people"
The more important changes in
the bill comprise the addition of the
Senate foreign valuation plan rather
than the House plan of American
valuation. Furthermore. the House
have agreed to the Presi-

OLD BELL CALLS WORKERS
ATPROPAGATING GARDENS
Custom of Former Generations Exempli6ed in
Use of Historic Relic.

An example of how tenaciously
custom clings to current practice is
found in an historic old bell, which
continues to be used after the man
ner of a century ago, as a mans of
calling the gardeners and helpers to
and from work at the White House
propagating gardens. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that ''the old farm bell"
belongs to a less modern era. at
least one instance of its use is found
today in the heart of the Nations
Capitol. Each morning when fac
tory whistles are screaming their
commands to begin work. visitors
in the vicinity of the propagating
gardens may hear different call,
reminiscent Of another generation.
But in addition to exemplifying an
old custom. the bell at the propagat-
ing gardens enlists the observers
interest as an historic relic as well
No one seems to know where IL
came from originally. For years it

France Wdy,ts armament
Question Left to League
Cabinet Notifies Barthou Not
to Participate in Discussion
If Problem Is Brought Up
Special Cable TO The Tribune

Copyright, 1922. New York Tribune Inc
PARIS, April Ii. - French public
opinion has been greatly aroused by
the several attempts OF the Soviet dele
gates to bring up the question of arma- :
the statement by Lloyd George that if
this question is not discussed there it
will be taken up at a subsequent meet
ing Because of this situation the
French Cabinet has decided that if
the question comes up NJ. Barthou
must insist that it be referred TO the
League of Nations
Should the matter be taken up
despite this stand of France, the pol
icy will be to instruct the French dele
gates to refrain from any part in the
discussion. The Impression is grow
ing here that Germany and Russia
are really not in favor Of disarmament,
but are anxious to have the other
countries reduce their armies, merely
so that they may become easy prey.
France is ready to bring about a re
duction of armament as soon as these
two countries are able to show that
they, themselves, seriously approve
such a move.
The "Temps' thinks that the ques-
tion of armaments will not be dis
cussed at Genoa for two reasons The
first is that such a procedure would re-
quire the tearing up of the Boulogne
agreement and this would break the
confidence of the nations in the other
stipulatons. This would result, accord
ing to the Temps" in each country
deciding for itself what military force
was required and in the general camou-
faging of armaments. The second rea-
son is that no discussion can be
broached while Russia is maintaining
q standing army of million and half
of men, which is obviously unneces-
sary from an international viewpoint
The Bolsheviki, in a conference with
Carlo Schanzer, refused categorically
the few guarantees of protection for
foreigners which were asked, such as
the abandonment of arbitrary CON
demnations and the requisition of
goods. This alone. in the opinion of
the Temps" is proof that the Soviet
will oppose any control over the size
of the Russian armies. The Soviet
delegates might promise to make re-
duction in the Red armies, but it would
be impossible to find out if those prom
lseS were kept
