More than this. II he buys the car

something which has been proven by

IN my own mind. the used car Is
sold today at prices far out of line
with It's actual worth. In few cases
does the depreciation OF used car
actually amount to the difference be-

Washington. Senator Capper of

f.. f. budding, president of the Pris-

tor Capper, asking that he include in
his bill an amendment looking to the
unification of penalties in the different
states of the union.
Citing examples from the West Vir-

federal prisoners, Mr. budding says F:

TARIFF BILL
TO SENATE
Experts Help Senate Finance
Committe Prepare Bill.
Rates Higher.
MODIFY TARIFF RATES
Ample Time to Study Out Bill
Will Not Call 1t Up for
Sixty Days.

Wasllington.-The long-awaited ad-
ministration tariff bill has been pre-
sented to the senate.
Senator McCumber. Republican,
North Dakota, announced that to give
senators time to study the measure he
would not call it up before April 20.
Some Republican leaders thought it
would be passed after about 60 days
of debate but other estimates run as
high as three months.
Experts who assisted the senate
finance committee majority to prepare
the bill, estimated that the average Of
its rates is Slightly higher than the
average Of the Payne-Aldrich law, the
last Republican tariff act.
The Payne-Aldrich level was ap-
proximately Al per cent on all dutiable
imports and 21 per cent OH all imports
free and dutiable. The average of the
Democratic Underwood tariff, which
the new bill would replace, was $3.50
and 14.SS per cent respectively, in
1914, the first year of its operation
and the only year when trade was not
seriously affected by the world war or
after-the-war conditions.
Slightly Higher on Food Supplies.
Comparing the bill with the Ford
ney measure, which the house passed
last July 81, and of which this is re-
write, the experts estimated that the
average Of all rates is lower, though
the specific rates and more particu-
larly those on foodstuffs, are some
what higher. Exact comparisons Of
the advalorem duties in the two bills
are somewhat difficult because the
senate committee threw overheard
the House American valuation plan,
returning to the foreign valuation
principle.
While they have not completed all
calculations, treasury experts say that
the measure probably would raise be-
tween $3.50, 100000 and 350,O0O,OO0 in
revenue as compared with the estim-
ate Of $3OO,OOO,OOO for the Fordney
bill and $30s, 100000 of revenue re-
turned in the calendar year 1921 from
the Joint operation of the Underwood
law and the emergency tariff act.
In returning to the foreign valua-
ton principle, the senate committee
majority carried out the suggestions
Of President Harding to congress last
December for a flexible tariff. Under
special provisions in the measure, the
president, in the language of the ma
jority report which accompanied the
bill would be authorized:
ITO modify tariff rates, either up
ward or downward, within prescribed
limits $50 per cent) and in accordance
with definite rules laid down by con:
gress so that rates may at all times
conform to existing conditions.

Genoa-The preliminary moves on
the European chess board, to which
the day before the opening of the eco
nomic conference was largely devoted,
plainly showed all nations, great and
small, counting Russia, although they
wished to appear not over eager in
the courtship. Therefore, the Rus
slams seemed to hold a position of
distinct advantage, all depending on
how they manipulated their pawns in
their project to be admitted to the
council Of nations as the representa-
tives of the Russian state.
The conditions of Russia's entry are
the outstanding and dominating sub.
ject of the conference.
In the meantime the Allied chiefs
have had two lengthy sessions which
were marked by some sharp. ex-
changes between the British prime
minister, Mr.. Lloyd George, and Louis
Barthou, representing France, and SET
tied on definite program of technical
work for the conference.

arranged, for, composed of representa-
tives of all the nations, with subcom.

restricted to the nations having par.
ticular interest in the particular eco.
nomic topics to be taken up. The
French delegates announced that com.
plete accord existed between Great
Britain and France in all matters.
Soviet Russia and Japan speak for
Asia in the conference; Canada repre-.
sents North America, and the South
