WASHINGTON. Jan. o. - 1t

WASHINGTON. Jan. o. - 1t is now
more than a year since work was begun
on the permanent tariff legislation
which the administration asked of con-
grcss and completion of which leaders
Of the Republican party promised
months ago. In fact. last Friday marked
the anniversary of hearings on the bin

house under the chairmanship Of Repre-
sentative Fordney of Michigan. But in
spite Of the various optimistic predic-
tons. Indications now are that the bill
will scarcely be ready for signature be
fore May, and if this is so, it will mean
that is months viii have elapsed since
work was initiated on the measure.
To expedite the bill. Chairman
Fordney, under the sanction of the in
coming administration, started the hear
before President Harding was inaugu-
rated. Roth Mr.. Fordney and the late
Senator PCHrOSe made confident prCdiC-
tons that the bill would be out of the
way by May or June of that year. Con
greSs met in April. Republican leaders
said work on the bill would consume
comparatively little time.
However, although the bill has passed
the house, it is now afflicted with what

Mr.. Wilson, though at one time a
very good walker, was never keen on
games, with the one exception Of lawn
tennis. He played q sound game of
lawn tennis. He is Il good mechanic
and has on occasion shown that he
could drive a locomotive.
The late Mr.. Roosevelt was by far
the most athletic man who ever sat In
the presidential chair of the United
States. Some of his feats were extra

who sold 200 pound of Holsters for
more than $500, thus enabling him to

from his state of coma, and called
my attention to another black splotch
a quarter of a mile or so away. and
informed me that it was his intention
to drive the ball toward it. He hadn't
noticed the spring time landscape.
That black eyesore had been absorb

Milt addressed his Maker, instead
of the ball. in the most self con-

he had done something which he
shouldn't have done, and implored a
fearful retribution.
Perhaps I snickered, don't know

players would have us believe.

also addressed the ball. I hadn't
heard Milt say a word when he per-

well to be firm in these little things
I addressed it in no uncertain terms.
Now, jussa minute.3 Miit said

swang. But Milts instructioning
fell down again. The ball didn't hap

scribed" as he said it would. The ball
never budged.
The only explanation I had to offer
was that Milt had given me a trick
