Example OF Sabotage
Practiced By Enemies

Leesburg, Florida-What is be-
1ieved to be an example of sabotage
practiced by enemies of this country
during the World War has come to
light here. A concern in the north
manufacturing bolt and castings for
the government had a large quantity
of material left at the time of the
armistice and a corporation con-
structing a factory here purchased
several thousands of the bolts. They
appeared to be perfect until me-
chanics attempted to use them. Then
it was discovered that many had been
sawed almost to the center from both
sides at the threated end. leaving a
bare eighth OF an inch OF metal in
tact. The nuts o the damaged bolt ;
had been screwed down to a point
where they concealed the cuts.
Had the bolts been sent abroad
they would have been useless for the
purpose for which they were de-
signed. e.

Swedish Posto&ice "-...
Department Enabled
To Do Bank Business

Stockholm-A postal checking &C
count system whereby the Swedish
post office department will be enabled
to do a limited commercial banking
business is proposed in a bill recently
submitted to the Riksdag and spon-
.:ored by Anders Oerne, minister of
communications. The bill also pro-
vides that the present postal savings
department be merged with the post
Office service. @
Unde the proposed system, which
is meeting some opposition from the
banking interest of the country,
small depositcrs in the ceorganized
postal savings banks could draw their
checks instead of buying postal
money orders. This system Minister
Oerne contend, would effect a saw
ing in the salaries of officials and
money order clerks and other ex-
lenses. He declares hat less than
one-third CT the clerical force now
required could handle the work I'M
der the new arrangement.
Minister Oerne states that the pro-
posed postal checking system will be
Of incalculable value to small de-
positors and especially to people in
rural communities where there arc
no banking facilities.

TARIFF DEBATE
in THE SENATE
Real, Battle Is On; King De.
clares Measure Aidsthe
Trusts

Washington, April 25.-There was
an old-fashioned tariff debate Monday
in the senate. 1T markedHthe real be-
ginning Of the weeks. perhaps months,
Of battling over the administ ration
measure, which the finance committee
reported two weeks ago.
The discussion was opened by Sem
ator Smoot, Republican, Utah, with q
tariff proposal written into the bill at
the suggestion of President Harding
and it included an attack on those
proposals by Senator Jones, Democrat,
New Mexico and the opening Of a
general assault on the whole measure
by Senator King, Democrat, Utah.
Characterizing the measure as
more iniquitous" than the Payne
Aldrich and Dingley measures, Sen
ator King charged that it was a bill
Ito increase the price of everything
the interest Of the dye trust, the steel
trust, the chemical trust, the wooden
mill trust, some Of the cotton manu-
featuring trusts and the multitude of
great organizations that in the past
have preyed upon the people and that
in the future will continue their
policy of exploitation" \
Senator King declared that the ad-
dress of Chairman McCumber Of the
senate finance committee. in calling
up the measure last week. was "sn APP
peal to the predatory interests OF the
United States to be merciful to the
poor consumers" and said that when
the nation was at war and the very
fate Of civilization seemed to be at
stake. "some Of the same vultures that
dictated schedules in this bill were
robbing the American people and the
American government"
King Raps Blocs.
Chairman McCumber later denied
that his address was an appeal" He
said that in discussing conditions In
the world and in this country, he
thought the time opportupe to call at
tention of manufacturers, retailers
and factory laborers that the Ameri-
can public could consume only as
much as it. could purchase and that II
production was to be increased prices
would have to be brought down to
within the reach Of the consumers
pocketbook.
Senator King. took a fling at the
Notwithstanding bloc. the manufac-
turers' bloc and what he described as
other blocs and groups. He declared
that the death knell of political par
ties was sounded when there was q
division into farmers groups, work
mems, groups and manufacturers
groups. x
Reading from an announcement of
the Southern Tariff association that it
had laid its appeal for higher rates
than contained in the senate bill. be-
fore the tariff bloc" Senator King
demanded to know what had become

added. land I suppose the manufac-
