ACTION To END
! TARIFF ROW
INPENDS
Appointment of culbertson to
Diplomatic Service Seen As
Move for Peace
international News Service.

The impending appointment of
william s. Culbertson, Of Kansas,
as American minister to Rumania,
will end the bitter fight which has
ragged within the United States
Tariff Commission for the past two
years, administration spokesman
predicted today.
The promotion OF Culbertson to
the diplomatic service also is
looked upon as the first step to-
wards complete reorganization of
the Tariff Commission. Other
changes in it's membership are ex-
pected to follow as a result of the
long and unbroken warfare within,
the commission over every major
Issue brought before it.
On practically every major ques-
ton, CuIbertson, as vice chairman,
led one faction of the commission
In opposition to Chairman Thomas
p. Marvin. This split in the COM
missions membership resulted In
two reports being rendered on
Questions. Often the membership
was evenly divided in it's recon-
mendations to President Coolidge.
The climax in the commission s
tnternecine strife came during the
sugar tariff investigation. A bitter
controversy arose over the legality
Of a member of the commission
participating in the investigation
because members of his family
owned sugar stock. This led
president Coolidge to the decision
20 effect a reorganization of the
commissions membership.

ORCHARDS HARD
HIT BY LAST
FREEZE
Maryland Growers Report
Peach Crop Ruined, Some
Apples Saved

HAGERSTOwN, Nd, April %
The apple crop in Western Mary
land. thought to have been wiped
out by Monday nights freeze, when
the mercury fell to 81 degrees,
seven degrees below the danger line
for apples and other fruit, has been
found partially safe, growers re-
port after a careful inspection of
tic orchards.
Many Of the buds, enough to i'm
sure a fair crop, escaped. One
apple grower said he knew his ap-
pies were safe. as bees We're work
ing on the bloom, and bees do not
bother frozen blossoms.
Apples are reported In fairly good
condition in Clearspring and Keedys-
vile sections, while at Sharpsburg,
not far distant, the buds were fro
zen. Growers in the Smithburg
fruit belt are divided in their opin-
ion as to the condition of apples
and other fruit. Some say the
orchards having an eastern exposure
are safe and those facing west are
frozen, while others maintain that
the bloom@on the tops of the trees
only were hurt.
The heaviest damage was done in
the big Hancock apple belt, where
the American Fruit Growers In
The early varieties Of apples suf-
Tered most, Transparent, Duchess,
Staynnen and Wealthy varieties be-
Ing almost a total loss, 1t is said
while York Imperial, Rome Beau
ties and the Jonathan varieties
have come through almost I'M
scathed. 1t is conceded by grow
srs that nearly half of the entire
apple crop has been hurt and that
the financial loss will run from
several hundred thousand to half
million dollars.
Less hardy than apples, peaches
also sustained a whitening blow by
the freeze and growers in every
section of the Soulh Mountain belt,
which in good seasons produces
hundreds of thousands Of bushels,
claim that the crop has been killed.
This additional loss win spell ruin
for many orchardists, it is claimed.
Peaches received their first and
serious blow on January %, when
the mercury went to "a degrees
below zero At least half, il not
more OF the crop, was killed at
that time by the buds freezing in
the wood. Last Mondays freeze
caught the trees in bloom or with
the buds bursting, with the result
that subsection to the unusually low
temperature and frost blighted
them. Orchards that promised to
yield part OF crop of peaches, it
e. declared, win be total loss.
Pears, cherries and plums also
received a staggering blow, all OF
these kinds Of trees being in full
bloom. inspection has shown that
q large percentage of the buds are
black as q result Of being frozen.
Many small growers viii suffer
heavy loss.
