AS a result of a vote taken among
directors of the Manufacturers

stayed on the jobs. These men have
been loyal, not alone to their m

to be a party to such an act, and we

WASHINGTON, Aug. Sup
porting his proposed substitute for
the administrations tariff bill under
which congress would rely upon the
tariff commission 10 recommend
changes in duties after full investi-
cation. Senator Jones, Democrat,
New Mexico, told the senate today
that the pending measure was both
unsatisfactory and unnecessary.
He declared the Underwood law
supplemented by the emergency act
to protect agriculture, was adequate
to meet the situation.
IT submit that in all history of
tariff legislation" he said. there
can be found no instance where a
tariff bill, during it's consideration.
received such universal condemna-
ton, as has the bill now under
consideration. Generally speaking,
it's general support comes from
those only obsessed by unreasoning
fears, and who hope to derive from
individual pecuniary aims.
The general welfare Of the coun-
try is ignored"

Over 400 people from this Sec
tion spent a day of pleasure yes:er'
day on the annual combined excur-
sion of San Salvador Council, No,

Mary's parish. The excursion went
up the Hudson river as far as Tar.

fastest and best boats used for out
ings of this kind. was obtained by
the committee in charge of the ex-
cUrsion after the Grand Republic
vas damaged in a recent accident

longer ride, a longer stay at >the
park and early arrival home.

Clermont left the city dock yester-
day morning. and although the
weather was somewhat threatening,
the crowd on board was out Tor a
real time, rain or shine. The sights
along the Hudson as the Clermoni
breezed by, appealed especially to
those who had not previously made
the trip.
In the vicinity of Tarrytown the
furtherest point of the trip was
reached and the boat then headed
back for the Palisades. About 2:30
o'clock the park was reached. On
the trip up there were many who
srent the time dancing to music fur
Mashed by Fred O'Brien's orchestra,
A big supply of the refreshments
taken on board were disposed OF
before the park was reached.
Nearly four hours were spent at
the park during which the excpr-
sionists had time visit all the attrac-
tons. About $3.50 o'clock the boat
started on the return trip and the
city dock was reached before $3.50
o'clock.
There were no incidents to mar
the outing, great care being taken
to avoid accidents and disorders of
any kind. The committee is to be
commended for the name In
which everv arrangement was made.
Monsignor William P. Cantwell. Rev
Father Francis Medallion and Rev.
