EMERGENCY TARIFF
SAID To HAVE BEEN
CHECK ON PRICES
Commission Thinks It HELPED
Relieve Depression for
Wool Men.

Washington. Oct 30-The emergen-
cy tariff law, according to a formal
statement on its general effects made
public Monday night by the tariff COM
mission, tended Ito prevent so great a
fall in prices as might otherwise have
come, rather than to increase the value
of the 30 commodities covered. While
saying that the effect on all of the
commodities was difficult to determine.
the commission reports that definite
results traceable to the law. now
superseded by the permanent tariff
act, were found as to the duties ap-
piled to wool. wheat and sugar
The law seems to have assisted in
relieving the acute depression in the
wool growing industry" according to
there was largely in removing strained
credit situation and in causing milers
to use domestic rather than imported
stocks. Western bankers, the state
ment adds, felt better secured with
wool paper when foreign woods were
virtually embargoed.
Wheat Aided Some
THE duty of 81 cents a bushel on
TO have affected only the trade in
northern spring wheat produced in the
upper Mississippi and Missouri valleys in
competition with the Canadian wheat
of the Same variety. Large quantities
of some other varieties of wheat are
exported from this country, therefore
an import duty has little effect upon
their prices. There usually is de
flclency of the domestic hard spring
wheat for blending purposes, however,
and to the extent that the emergency
law reduced somewhat the Canadian
imports of this variety of wheat. the
duties had some effect on prices. Eng
land did not purchase the normal Dor-
ton of Canadian wheat in 1922.
with the result that many Canadian
producers were forced to market their
crops in this country over the tariff
wall. How much lower the American
prices would have been had Canadian
wheat been admitted free of duty is
Little Effect on Corn
For the most part, the effects Of
the duties on other commodities were
The trade in corn. for ex-
ample, apparently showed no change
traceable to the duties. Imports We're
negligible for many months before and
after the emergency law. The report
points out that since only few mil
lion bushels are annually imported
such imports may be expected to have
little effect upon the prices of the total
American corn crop of 3,0OO,0O0,0 900
bushels
'The effects of the duties on cattle,
beef and veal are not certain. There
is some indication that Chicago prices
Of cattle declined less rapidly than did
the Toronto prices of practically the
same grades after the enactment of
the law.
Mo Effect on Cotton
The seven cents per pound duty on
long staple cotton had no effect on the
bulk of the cotton crop Of this coun-
try, but it steadied the market for the
small output of long staple or Egyptian
type cotton produced in the irrigated
regions Of the southwest"

| KILLED, MANY INJURED,
WHEN 5-STORY BUILDING
IN new YORK LAID LOW
Investigation by Authorities Proves to Their
Satisfaction That Is Girls Missing and Said
to Have Been Inside Were Not There; One
Who Escaped Says All Have Been Rescued.

New York, Oct. 30.-One was killed
and more than a dozen persons were
injured Monday night when a five story
factory building on South Thirteenth
street in Brooklyn was destroyed by
fire.
flrmed said that 15 girls were trapped
In the upper floors Of the building, oc-
cupled by shirt factories, as the flames
swept up from the cellar and ground
floor which was used as a plant for
the manufacture of shellac by the kas-
bier Chatfield company.
hasty search of the building by
flremen at midnight failed to reveal
any of the bodies of the 10 girls re-
ported to have been trapped in the
structure
Contradictory statements as to the
number of persons in the building at
the time Of the fire were made to the
authorities. Employees who leased the
top floors as shirt factories said that
all the girls had left before the fire
started.
A girl who escaped said the only
persons on the fourth floor were her
employer and two statesmen. all of whom
were rescued.
Witnesses Questioned
District Attorney Ruston and Fire
Marshal Brophy Immediately estab-
hshed an office ID ii garage near the
factory, where they summoned all wit

questioned on the origin and progress
of the blaze.
The dead man is Eugene Kerstein

Authorities. after an exhaustive ex-s
animation of witnesses, established to
their apparent satisfaction that all of
those who were in the building when
the fire started had been accounted for.
Firemen said that no complete search
of the building could be made until the
debris of the fallen floors had been
cleared away. which might take two
or three days
Three firemen were injured when
the fire escapes on the fourth floor of
the building collapsed. They went up
to the roof of the building on scaling
ladders, and were making an attempt
to reach the girls reported to be
trapped in the shirt shop when the fire
escapes fell.

F F0RE|CN POLICY
BARREN Of ANY
BARBS- HUGHES
Achievements Greater
Than Expectation of
Public, He Says.
Against Mixing Selves
in European Affairs
y. S. Uninterested In.

Boston, Mass, Oct '30.-A foreign
policy of helpfulness and good under
standing without entangiements which
would fetter American Independence
was outlined by Secretary Hughes OF
the state department in an address al
Symphony hall Monday night, review
ing the record Of the Harding admin
istration in the field of international
relations
By the lead it took in the arms con-
ference, the secretary said, and by
its efforts toward hramony among the
nations Of the western hemisphere, the
American government during the past
20 months has set a record of accom-
plshment far beyond what was ex-
pected Of it when the new administra-
tion came into power.
So far rs Europe is concerned,
Hughes decl;Hred, President Harding
and his advisers always have been
ready Ito lend helping hand where it
would do the most good, but the ad-
ministration is not willing to fritter
away the influence of the United
States by intervention in centrover-
sizes that were rooted in age old ma
tional rivalries.
Says Europe Unsettled
"The chief trouble at this time in
Europe he continued. is that the
great powers have not been able to
agree as to questions which. being
distinctly European questions direct
ly concern them, and their want of
agreement is due to different concep-
tions of international policy. For. us,
international cooperation does not
mean that we should embroil ourselves
in controversies not involving our own
interests
The secretary added that he believ-
ed a way might be found for the Uni
ted States to participate formally in
the selection of judges to the recently
organized international court of JUS
tice, project which from the first
had had the sympathy Of this govern
ment. He declared that already in a
humanitarian way and through the
channels of trade, the United States
was really giving aid. He praised the
arms conference agreements as mean
ing the rescue of the world from de-
spalr."
Reviews Achievements
Among the other accomplishments
reviewed by Hughes as part of the
program Of the admins
tration. were the negotiations of
peace treaty with Germany. the zap
agreement protecting American inter-
ests in the Mandate islands of the
Pacific the reorganization of Cuba's
finances, the Tauena africa arbitration
agreement between Chile and Peru. the
calling of conference here of Cen
trail American republics, and the stab
ilization of Haiti and Santo Domingo
Toward the people Of Mexico, the
secretary said, the United States en-
tertains only the friendliest sentiments
although it is unwilling to recognize
any Mexican internal policy based up
on confiscatory measures against for
eigners. He alluded also to the Near
Eastern situation, repeating the de
claration that the American govern
ment, although interested deeply in
some phases of the Near Eastern set
tlement, could not appropriately at
tend the Lausanne peace conference
because it was called to settle war
to which the United States was not a
party.
