Ready

Washington, Sept. 12.-The opinion
of the department OF justice as to the
legality of the Lasker- Farley ship OBJ
GRAFTON plan, probably will be trans
mitted to President Coolidge early
next week, Within a day or two an
other opinion on the question Of using

Atty. Gen. Daugherty returned to

G. OPS HAPPY
over ITS TARIFF
Fordney. McCumber Act Acclaim
ed Great Revenue Producer

Washington, Sept 12.-Republicar
leaders will celebrate the first ami
versary of the Fordney- McCumbel
protective tariff act by acclaiming il
the greatest revenue producer of any
tariff in history. They are wondering
what the democrats will say about the
showing.
Official figures up to late Saturday
indicate. that in its first year more
than s55O,000,000 will have gone into
the federal treasury from customs re-
ceipts, or nearly double the receipts
under the Underwood Simmons law.
From the date of It's passage until
July receipts amounted to s447,13S,-
420, compared with $294,400,429 dur
ing the same period in the last pre-
ceding year. This was an average of
nearly $45,00o,00O a month. From
last July until Sept. receipts under
the new law were s9b,719,579. or
nearly >$50,000,0O0 a month. making
the grand total for the first year,
lacking two weeks, $542,S5S,099. II
imports continue as during the last
few weeks this will be swelled to
nearly $50, 100000.
This is 100000 900 beyond the
most optimistic predictions when the
law was passed. Representative
Greene (R., Ia.) next chairmanlof the
Ways and Means committee, estimat-
ed that s450,000,000 year would be
expected, while Treasury officials
placed the sum at s4o5,000,000.
During the new tariff period i'm
ports have increased greatly. Foreign
countries, in spite of the protection
are selling more goods in the United
States than this country is selling
abroad.
For the seven months ending with
last July the value of imports was
375,255,31S. as against $1,671,179,-
GAO in 1922, for the same period. or
the former, s1,311,267.542 came in
duty free and s1,o63,9S7,776 was
taxed. Roughly, therefore, the duty
that is being collected averages near
ly so per cent of the goods that were
chosen fo1 protection.
The value of exports for the seven
months period was s2,202.9s7,454, or
72,700.000 less than imports, as
with an export value of
s2.0S1, 294,554 in the same period last
year, so that imports for the same
seven months last year were $780,
700. 900 less than exports,
