REWRITING THE
TARIFF MEASURE
Gets UNDER WAY
Finance Committee of the
Senate Tackles What is
Conceded to Be a Very
Difficult Problem.

Washington, Jan. 10.-Hearings
on the permanent tariff bill hav-
ing been brought virtually to a
close, senate finance committee
republicans embarked today on
what is conceded to be the very
difficult task of rewriting the
Fordney bill.
Several methods OF coping with
the situation brought about by
the depreciation and fluctuation
of foreign exchange have been
suggested. The house decided on
a general plan of assessing duties
on the basis of the American val
uation of the articles imported,
but some administration leaders
believe this plan would be very
difficult of administration.
President Harding has suggested
the fixing of maximum and mini
mum rates with the chief execu-
tive given authority to change the
duties between those limits as
conditions may warrant from
time to time.
This proposal has met with the
approval of some congressional
leaders and amendments to carry
this plan into effect have been
prepared by Senator Smoot, oil
Utah. ranking republican on the
committee.
Another suggestion has beer
that the president be given au.
thority to proclaim the value OF
foreign currency in terms of Am.
erican currency as a basis for the
assessing Of import duties.

EVIDENCE GIVEN
IN HANGING QUIZ
IS NFLICTING
Some Men Testify They
Saw Major 0pie Shoot
Runners; Others Assert
He Did Not Shoot Anyone

washington, Jan. 1U.--Ne carry d
dozen witnesses, all from Virginia,
broke about even today in testt-
flying for and against Major H. j..
Opie, of Staunton. Va, before a
senate committee investigating
charges that American soldiers had
been hanged without trial in
France.
But there was no evidence re-
lating specifically to hangings. 1t
all swung around charges that Ma
Tor Opie, as commander of the
third battalion, 10th infantry, had
shot some OF his men. Men VINO
had served with the regiment, sup
plementing testimony submitted
last week, declared they saw Ma
Tor Opie shoot runners in october,
1918, while his command was In
the Argonne.
Others who were with the Of
ficer asserted he had shot no one,
and that he only fired to stop som"
of his men, apparently in disorder
ed retreat, in an effort to reform
his line.
Chairman Brandegee, seeking to
CuL Iii OuElI tllt AplllAlNLAllSs W.
dence, endeavored to ascertain the
exact number alleged to have been
shot, but in the end there was some
doubt in the minds Of members as
to whether the witnesses had seen
and were attempting to describe
the same alleged slaughter.
Counsel for Major Opie, In a
brief statement, expressed the hope
that there might be a speedy find
ing, and asked that further evil
dence relating to him might be
presented.
Senator Watson, democrat, Geor-
gia, whose speech led to the in
vestigation, opposed any attempt
to single out the Opie case.
As all the testimony for or
against Major Opie was cleared
from the slate. a special date will
be fixed for re-opening the charges
by the committee in the event fur
Their statements should be forth
coming.
The most direct testimony
against Major Opie was given by
Charles e. Fox, of Richmond, Va,
who swore he saw the officer shoot
runner in the back. Later couu-
sci for Major Opie requested the
witness to state whether he had
written a certain letter put into
the records. Fox was not certain
The letter set forth that he was an
orphan, while he testified that his
mother was living.
1t was presented in what was re-
garded as an attempt to show that
the committee could not believe
him.
Fox was required to copy the
lester, aid while there was no
explanation as to what the com
parison of handwriting revealed,
the committee announced that Il
witness asked to be summoned by
Opie to testify as to the veracity
of Fox would not be called.

NET OPERATING
RAIL RECEIPTS
SHOW DECREASE
Were $50, 965,392 in No
vember, or $39,488,0 900
Less Than in October,
Association Announces.
Try Tho Asancinted Prcss.l

Washington, Jan. 10.--A net op-
Grating income Of S69,96o,S92 IN
November, which would be at an
annual rate of return Of 3,S per
cent on property investment was
announced tonight by the Associa-
ton of Railway Executives on the
basis of reports to the interstate
commerce commission by two num-
dred class one railroads. This OPP
Grating income, the announcement
said. was S30,4SS, 600 less than that
for October when the rate of re-
turn was equivalent to 5.4 per cent
annually, but the November fig
ures showed an increase of Sl5'-
10000 over those for November
1920. The decrease from October
was attributed largely to a decline
OF 20 per cent in the volume OF
traffic.
Twenty railroads in the eastern,
eight in the southern and twenty
one in the west district reported
operating deficits last November,
while total number reporting dell
cts for October was thirty. The
ratio of expenses to operating reve-
nues in November, was placed at
1905 per cent compared with 1920
per cent in October, this increase
being attributed to the impossible
ty of reducing expenses as rapidly
as traffic declines. The net oper-
ating income of $65,965,3S2 in No
vember, it was added, fell short
S37,l6S,618 of the amount con-
fen1nlatpd In the TRANSPORTATION
act.
The operating revenues of the
railroads in November, according
to the reports, totaled S465, $50, IA
or ola per cent less than in No
vember, 1920, while operating eX-
penses totaled $367912.2S7 last
November, which was a reduction
Of 2S.4 per cent from the figures
of the same month in 1920. Ex-
penditures of $166,321,423 for
maintenance by the railroads in
November, the announcement said,
was 25 per cent less than was spent
in the preceding November.
The net operating income of the
railroads during the first eleven
months of 1921 was placed at
$561,411, sos, or at an annual rate
of return of 33 per cent on the
tentative valuation fixed by the
poses. This return was $464,G05,-
800 less than the earnings contem-
plated, according to the announce
ment, under the rates fixed by the
commission.

F RANCO-BRITISH
PACT DISCUSSED
At CANNES MEET
italians Also Desire to Be
Included in the Treaty;
German Delegation Is to
Be Heard Today.
fB The Associated Press !

Cannes, Jan. 10 (by the Associa-
ted Press) AS the Preparations
settlement was held UP until to-
morrow because of the failure of
Premier BRAND to receive q reply
from his cabinet at Paris to his re-
port on what has been done here,
the Franco British pact held the
attention. of the members of the
supreme council today.
After two talks with Premier
Lloyd George M, BRAND declared
the negotiations were a good way
towards success, but that nothing
had been decided in the form OF q
treaty, which rs taken to mean that
the draft before the British cabinet
is merely a British suggestion
which win be submitted to the
French premier after it is passed
on at London.
In his view the pact is simply a
prolongation of the guarantee
treaties signed at Versailles, but
which were not ratified.
1t In the intention of Premier
BRAND and Lloyd George to GO
over every question involving diff
ferences of policy, but M. BRAND
said these were not many. AS for
the Turkish question, it was not
one concerning the Angora treaty
but concerned the question of
peace in the Near East. The sub
marine question, he thought. would
disappear when France and Great
Britain became allies. .t..
The German delegation will ar
rive tomorrow and will be heard,
along with the reparatlons COM
mission, when final decision is
reached on the proposed new repa'
rations terms.
The desire of the Italians to
come into the Franco-British pact
has delayed announcement of the
details OF the negotiations that lee
up to its drafting. Mr.. Lloyd
George prepared a statement out
lining the conversations in London,
At the request of NJ. BRAND this
statement was somewhat elabo
rated on to give more fully the
views expressed by the British pre-
mler. 1t probably will be publish
ed tomorrow. while memorandum
drafted by NJ. BRAND. giving the
French side, also will be given out

Los Angeles, Calif., Jan. 10
Argument in the trial of Arthur C.
Burch, charged with the murder of
j. Bolton Kennedy, was interrupted
today when Judge Sidney N.
Reeve, presiding, received word
that his brother was critically i'll at
Fullerton, thirty miles from Los
Angeles. The court adjourned
court until tomorrow morning.
Asa Keyes, assistant district at
torney, was in the middle of the
opening argument for the prosecu-
ton when the adjournment was an
nounced. He had endeavored to
show to the jury that the evidence
in the case showed Burch killed
Kennedy on the night of August 5,
last, at the instigation of Mrs.
Madalynne Obenchain, co-defend-
ent in the case, and that Mrs.
Obenchain lured Kennedy to
Beverly Glen, a foothill retreat,
where the tragedy occurred.
Mr.. Keyes read kilograms intro
duced in evidence as having been
sent by Burch to Mrs. Obenchain
containing such expressions as
"lots OF love- and my love is with
you always" declaring they indi-
Gated there was love between these
people, at least on the part Of
Burch."

He then traced the movements
Of Burch from the time, according
to the evidence, Mrs. Obenchain
wrote to Kenndy all was at an end
between them and summoned
Burch to Los Angeles before the
time of the shooting.
Burch and Mrs. obenchain, the
assistant district attorney said,
spied on Kennedy for two weeks
after Burch came here from Evan
ston, ILL.,, and Burch rented an au-
tomobile under an assumed name
the night Of the staying and was
seen driving that car through Bev-
erly Glen both before and after
Kennedy was shot, shortly after 8
o'clock.
How did Burch know Kennedy
would be there about Q o'clock 2"
asked Keyes. Because Madalynne
Obenchain had agreed to have him
there"
where was Burch that night?"
the prosecutor also asked. HE had
a chance to tell when we questioned
him at the district attorneys Of
flee. You will remember that he
replied that he would not tell us
until he had consulted counsel and
then he would explain everything.
But his doings have remained to
this day a closed book"
