LAUNCH BATTLE
ON TARIFF BILL
Republicans Expect FiIibuster,
But Predict Victory for Ad-
ministration Forces.
BY j. BART CAMPBELL.
International News Service.

Democratic Senators girded them
selves today for a smashing, organ
ized offensive against the tariff bill
Republican leaders declared that
they were prepared for the expected
Democratic onsIaughts. Some OF
them charged that Democratic
filibuster was threatened. but they
expressed confidence that the Al
n.inistration forces would force The
bill through in six weeks despite any
obstacle It's opponents threw In fits
way.
Senator Simmons OF North Caro-
lima, ranking Democratic member OF
the Senate Finance Committee, was
busily engaged with his associates
in mapping out series Of sys-
tematic attacks upon the bill which
are to begin Monday by Senator
King of Utah, who has been placed
In charge OF the chemical schedules
on the Democratic side. He win then
launch drive against the proposed
continuation of the dyestuffx spn.
barge.
King planned 20 go after the so
called dye monopoly and lobby again
with verbal hammer and tongs, and TO
charge that the du Points and other
American dye interests dictated the
provision to continue the present
dye licensing system for one year
after the enactment of the bill, and
to vest the President with power to
proclaim a further extension OF
twelve months II he considers one
necessary. Senator Moses OF New
Hampshire and other Republican an
tagonists of the dye interests were
ready to join the Democrats In the
hot fight brewing over this pro
vision.
Senator Walsh of Massachusetts,
was assigned TO the wool schedules
and TO the tariffs on hides, leather
and leather goods. He was TO wage
a determined battle to continue hides
on the free list, and in this he was
expected TO have the strong support
OF the shoe and leather industries Of
Massachusetts, who were reported to
be willing to forgo protection for
their own products In favor CT free
raw materials.
Senator Robinson of Arkansas was
to join Senators Simmons and Walsh
in giving particular attention to the
cotton schedules, while Senators
Jones of New Mexico and Gerry of
Rhode Island were among the other
Democrats who were "speci3lixing"
on other certain provisions OF the
bill which the minority members
hope TO also find vulnerable 20 their
attacks.

CHICAGO, April 22.-The menace
of a railway strike involving 500 900
members of the railway employees
department Of the American FEEDER.
alton OF Labor loomed again today
as officials of the department began
sending out strike ballots to the
membership.
Decision to take a strike vote was
reached at the biennial convention
which has been in session here for
two weeks.
ing the six federated shop crafts
and the Switchmen's Union Of
North America.
The chief grievance of the men,
according to b. M. Jewell, president
of the department, Is over the al
legged violation of the railroads Of
rulings OF the United States Rail
way Labor Board through the
farming out" system Of handling
railway shop work. The unions
charge that the roads, by contract
ing with outside shops to do rail-
way repair work, are in reality re-
sorting to subterfuge to evade the
rulings of the board. The shops
doing the work, It is pointed out.
are outside the jurisdiction Of the
board.
"The carriers have been getting
away with IT, thus far" said Jewell.
1--WE are going to find out IL they
can continue TO do So"
Jewell said that the result OF the
strike vote probably would be known
within sixty days and predicted that
the vote would be Overwhelmingly
in favor of a strike. He declared
the issue would be fought to a
finish"

$4,000 RENTAL
LIMIT SET FOR
JUSTICE DEPT.
Moving to Temporary War
Buildings Given as an
Alternative.

The Department Of Justice today
was granted the alternative by the
Public Buildings Commission of
moving TO the temporary war build
ings at Sixth and b streets north
west, or OF paying not more than
SIS 900 rental in its present loca-
ton at Vermont avenue and X
street northwest.
The members of the commission
are adamant In their determination
that a higher rental than s75, 900
shall not be paid. The present
rental is $4,000, and It is alleged
the owners of the property are de-
manding an increased rental on a
per square foot basis, which would
make the annual rental far more
than 800, 900.
Eviction proceedings against the
Department of Justice are expected
II IL elects to stay in its present loca-
ton. and a lengthy litigation is
looked for. The public buildings
commission does not believe Attor-
ney General Daugherty will desire to
move his force to the temporary war
buildings.

"The general business situation
