HOUSE REJECT PLANS
T0F|X TARIFF DUTIES
ACTION OF coNFEREEs ON BILL
BRING UNEXPECTED REVOLT.
SOME REPUBLICAN LEADERS
SURPRISED AND DiSAPPOINT-
ED-DEMoCRATS PLEASED.

Washington, Sept. 14.-Revolting
against the action of the eonferees
in writing back into the administra-
ton tariff bill a dye embargo licens-
ing provision and duty on potash,
the house late today sent that mea-
sure back to conference. Its mana
gers wer. instructed to accept the
senate amendment repeating the ex-
isting dye embargo and placing pot
ash on the free list. e.. 9
Some Republican house leaders,
plainly surprised and disappointed,
were pessimistic as to what the ulti-<t
mate result of the house action would
be. Representative Monden of Wyo-,
ming, the floor leader, said he did
not know what the outcome would
be, while Chairman Fordney Of the
ways and means committee said /; 1t
looked doubtful whether there would
be bill at this session Of congress.
Chairman McCumber of the senate
managers took a more optimistic
view, however, stating that the SEM
ate would agree to another confer
ence and that the difference would
be adjusted speedily. r
The vote in the house was lit to
130, with 102 Republicans, "a DEM
ocrats and the one Socialist voting
in support Of the motion by Repre-
sentative Garner (Democrat) Of
Texas to recommit and 126 Repub-
licans and four Democrats voting a.
gainst it. The vote followed a day
of parliamentary wrangling and
sharp debate and announcement of
the result by Speaker Gillett was
greeted by applause on both sides Of
the chamber and with loud cheers
from many of the Democrats.
Republicans supporting the Garner
motion included Scott and Taylor,
both of Tennessee.
Democrats voting against the Gar
ner motion were Campbell Of Penn
sylyania and Favrot, Lizaro and Mar,
tin, all of Louisiana. ;.
Apparently the move by Represen-
tative Garner, who is the ranking
Democrat on the committee which
framed the original tariff, to include.
potash in his motion to recommit
took the managers of the bill by sur
prise. .-....-,
Both the house and senate voted
out the dye embargo provision but
the conferees, in considering the spe-
cifc section Of the senate bill for
repeal of the existing embargo IL
censing law, voted to continue the
present act for one year with au-
thority for the president to continue
it for an additional year should he
find that to be necessary for the
protection which grew up in this
country during the World War.

EXTRA SESSION
 OF CONGRESS 10
 PASS SHIP BILL
By GRATTAN KEBANS
 (Speciad

Washington, Nov. 17-Although President Harding's call for a special
 cessitated by the public interests l this phrase may well be interpreted ''p-ivate interests, seeing that the particular purpose of the extra ses- sion is to pass the Ship Subsidy bill. Since President Harding insists up- on lesislating the peoples money in ito the pockets of the 'privateers" behind the present ship bonus bill, it Is pertinent to study the price that will have to be paid in taxes to pro- vids these special interests with all the 1argesses that are proposed for them. The salient facts in this con nection have been furnished by the Dem ocratic members of the House Committee on Merchant Marine in a minority report submitted last June This report shows that the Govern | ment's fleet built during the war and now in the keeping of the U. s. ship ping Board cost the people $3,OoO, 100000. The Shipping Board would be authorized by the passage of the pending bill to sell these vessels for $200, ,00o, ,OOO-a loss to the taxpayers of S2,SOO, 100000.
 Having purchased the ships. the new owners would have the oppor- tunity and the disp posttion, in the opi- nion of these Democratic members, to capitalize them for something like their true value and base their freight rates on this higher valuation so that the people would SufIer 1lfSt from the Shipping Boards rufnous def1ation of $2,S0O,000, and after wards by the Shipping Trusts reck- less imitation of more billions. This would be an additional loss and bur den for the tax payers to bear for the aggran ndizement of special interests. The bill contempIaJtes the granting of bonuses aggregating S75o ,0oO:ooo to the private concerns which buy and operate the ships and the lend ing of $125, 100000 to these same corporations and individuals to pay for the building of new and the re- conditioning of old vessels. That
 procedure, the Democratic Represen- tatives point out, would be tanta-
 mount to giving the ships away and
 then bestowing rewards totalins
 $5Oo,0OO,00O for their operation by
 their new owners.
 Borrowers of the S125,0oo 900
 placed at the disposal of the Ship.
 ping Trust by President Hardfngs $
 "per measure would be enabled to
 obtain loans at an interest rate of 2
 per cent and for long terms as long
 as fifteen years. The only collateral
 pledged for the repayment of these
 loans would be the ships upon which
 the money was borrowed, while the
 amount lent by the Government in
 any given case might be the equiva-
 lent of two-thirds of the market
 value of the vessel upon which it was
 advanced.

PrOtracted Rains Damage Buildings
 in Austria

Vienna, Nov. 21. GA. P.)-Six weeks of steady rains, broken by but few dry days, have wrought great damage throughout Austria.
 The tower of the village church in Tauf Kirchen, Upper Austria, col- lapsed this week. killing two persons and injuring several others. Salzburg Cathedral, containing the famous Ru- pert chapel, is so badly damaged that public subscriptions have been open- ed for a repair fund. In Vienna hun dreds of buildings are reported as ser- iousIy damaged by the continued downpour. In this city construction almost universally is of brick faced with about an inch of plaster. ruled to initiate stone. Everywhere this plaster covering is peeling, exposing the brick, and if frost should come before the buildings get dry, very heavy damages are predicted.
 The situation Is aggravated by the fact that there has been virtually no repair work done since the first year of the war.

Paris Holds Exhibit
 of Poison Mushrooms

Paris Nov. 21.-(A. P)-For the first time since the outbreak of the Worlds War, the custom of holding a comparative exhibition of edible and poisonous mushrooms has been reviv- ed at the Museum of Natural History in Paris.
 M. Mangin, director of the insti- tuition, has gathered together 400 diff ferent species varying in size from a pinhead to giants weighing over two pounds. The mushrooms will be labelled and placed in the exhibit in sections, according to their food value and poison danger.
 According to M. Mangin, there are only three or four really dangerous mushrooms, chiefly Phalloid Ananites and Citrines, the least particle of which if eaten means death.

ILOCANOS THINK STORM DIVINE

Simple Natives Say Wrath of Gods Is Directed Against Modern Inven- tiOns.

Ry International News Service.) Manila, Nov. 21.-Typhoo oons and other disturbances. terrestrial and provinces occupied by Ilocanos, the people of MaIayan origin, with per haps some Japanese blood, certainly of Luzon, have recalled the supersti- tions of this people regarding storms They think of storms a divine visitation and feel that their fields are destroyed by wind and flood be- cause they have offended the dedties.
 The spirit Of the storm is person4- fled for them in a man-god sent by the Supreme Being to administer fiercest when averaging the use of in ventions, such as the stripping mat- chimes imported by the International Harvester Company; that the Ilo- maguey fiber with, instead of retting 1t in saltwater.

SHALL BABY,
 CRIPPLED, BE
 LET TO LIVE?
That Is Question Three Chic a go Physicians Are Called Upon to Solve.

Chicago, Nov. 21-(By I. N. S.)- Shall an armless and legless baby now two days. old and perfectly healthy. be allowed to live? Or would it be more humane to allow the infant to die before she grows up and realizes the hop1e&ness of her condition?
 That was the question that pre- sented itself to the three Chicago physicians today, called into consul tatton in the case of the baby, born to Mrs. James c. Dsbrasca-
 Lebrasca, according to the physi- clans, pleaded with them mot to let the baby live" Mrs. Lebrasca has is not physically normal.
 The physicians in the case are pr. Julius Mandel, D1 Benjamin H. Breakstone ad Dr. s. w. Browstein.
 "Of course.'' said Dr. Mandel to- day 'there does not seem to be any alternative except to let the baby live Nevertheless the problem is no light one: Imagine growing into young womanhood, armless. legless, helpless.
 'arhe baby Lebrasoa is not abnor- mai mentally. She is simply crip- pied, hoplessly crippled. She may develop into one of the greatest minds the world has ever known. Or she may become a public charge"
 The concensus among the doctors. however, is that nothing can be done.
