thor OF this anomalous resolution

damning and saving the senator
from Michigan. We can feel some
sympathy. I suppose. for an admin
stration which comes TO the rescue
OF one who has saved its bacon in
time OF direct need. The League OF
Nations was repudiated through the
organization OF the senate and not

The Harding followers accused
Woodrow Wilson OF weary wabbling.

IMPORT DUTIES
Senate Finance Committee
Hopes to Have Question
Solved Soon.
VALUATIONS DISCUSSED
Rate Recommendations Re-
ceived From C.. o. p. Farm
er Tariff Bloc.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-Final
discussion OF the basis of assessing
the import duties which are to be
written into the new tariff bill was
started Friday by republican mem
bers Of the senate finance committee.
They hope 10 reach a decision on
this, the most important and difficult
phase OF the whole tariff problem,
before the end OF next week. and
then the actual work of construct
ing the rates will be undertaken.
The hope now IS that the bill can be
reported TO the senate around
March l.
Besides discussing the American
valuation plan and various substi-
tutes with members of the tariff
commission and the court OF Gus
toms appeals, the committee men re-
ceived from the senate republican
farmer-tariff bloc recommendations
as to rates on farm products. These
included a suggested duty of five
cents a pound on short staple cotton.
which has always been o the free
list, and a rate of S5c a pound on
wool, on the basis Of the secured
content as against the 25c proposed
in the Fordney bill. Rates at in
creases over those in the Fordney
bill on wheat and many other pro-
ducts also were urged.
IndOrse Proposals.
In entering upon their discussion
OF the basis Of assessing duties, the
committee members had in confer
ence with them Thomas o. Marvi
and William Burgess of the tariff
commission and Judge Marion De
Vries, a member OF the court Of Gus
toms appeals. They endorsed the
plan, outlined in en- amendment pro-
posed Thursday by Sen. Smoot Of
Utah, of assessing duties on the
basis of the selling price of the inn
ported article in the American mar
ket rather than on the value of the
comparable product produced in the
United States, the FOrdney bill pro-
posa1.
Besides discussing this proposal al
some length, the committeeman
went into a general discussion Of the
