j. s. TARIFF HELD
PERIL TO EUROPE
Sir George PaiSh, Economist,
Sees Disaster, Unless
Rates Are Lowered.

There. viii be a disastrous break
down in Europe unless the United
States lowers its tariff, thereby per
uniting more foreign goods TO be sold
in this country, according to Sir
George Paish, noted British publisher
and economist, who called on Presi-
dent Coolidge at the executive office
yesterday.
Not only will it be necessary for the
United States to import more Euro
pean goods to relieve the economic
situation in Europe, but there must
be a revision of the allied debt settle
ment as well as revision Of the Dawes
plan. he said.
Tells What England Needs.
What England needs most today,
according to Sir George is the ability
TO sell more goods, and il it is to
meet it's obligations and is TO be able
to survive during its present crisis
the United States should cooperate by
making it possible for that nation to
sell its goods in this country in ire
mendousIy larger amounts than is the
case at present. lie pointed out that
Great Britain buys five times as much
from the United States as the latter
does from Great Britain, which
creates an unfaVorable balance OF

Great Britain must continue paying
Its war debt to this country.
Urges Cooperation.
Speaking of the need for greater CO.
operation on the part Of the United
States to improve the economic condi-
lions of Ell jpe, Sir George stated
that this does not mean that more
American capital should go to Europe,
but that more European goods should
be absorbed by the United States,
He is hopeful that much good will
be accomplished by the economic con-
ference to be held at Geneva, at least
to the extent Of getting the facts %
the world economic situation before
the hail of the governments of the
world.

Inspectors Making Canvass
of Tornado-Stricken Dis
triCt to Ascertain DAMAGES.

Building inspectors under the direc.
. tiop of Col. John w. Oehmann, chief
/. building inspector of the District, are
making a canvas today of the tornado
stricken sections of the District in an
effort to ascertain the probable
amount of the damage done to private
. property.
Not until these inspectors make
their reports. Col. Oehmann said.
s-rIld he he able to estimate the ap-
,uoAlmate amount of the damage. He
did, however. hazard guess that the
amount likely would reach Se5O,e00.
Col. Oehmann explained that his de-
rartment is not concerned primarily
with ascertaining the amount of the
damage, but with tearing down dan
rerous walls and the work of recon
et"uCtion.
While his department is without
. funds for removing walls and struc-
lures that have been weakened and
are likely to collapse, he said, in emer.
sencY cAses such work would be under
taken with the aid of the District Fire
Department.
Thus far the building inspector has
been called upon to remove only one
wall. in the vicinity Of Blow School.

/ prosecution of which you, in your

Z that it grew out of that case, the
alleged contempt does not much con-
stitute an issue in that case to be

In accepting Maj. Gordon's resigna-

acquittal. He denies all the allega-

Meanwhile Days attorney, former
Justice Wright Of the District Su
preme Court. in caustic statement
to the court withdrew his previous
motion to have the bond OF the Sin.
clair associate reduced to $4,000. His
action. he explained. was on his own
initiative to save Day a part of the
cost OF $3.50 as a premium on the
bond.
After he returned home last night
he told Chief Justice Mccoy that Day
called him by telephone inquiring as
10 what was going on. Wright de-
elared that Day had called his at
tention to the fact that The New
York papers We're announcing under
fiaring headlines that he was making
an effort to have his bond reduced
in order that he might more comfort
ably and agreeably flee the juris-
diction.'
What inane, senseless and infan-
tile nonsense" Wright declared. "A
fair parallel to the ebulltion of
puerile Mysteries concerning Mr.. Day
which has Of late impeded the sensible
affairs of the courthouse. However,
the motion is here. Mr.. Day has per-
emptorily requested and directed me
to withdraw the motion and adhere
TO the bond as already given. In the
face OF his comma nd there is no course
left to me save to withdraw the mo-
tion and so | do
Wright explained to the court that
when he appeared with Day previous
ly in contention against the district
attorney, in which Day was upheld,
a rumor came To them that a warrant
for his arrest was to be applied for.
Day later surrendered voluntarily, the
charge of conspiracy to influence the
trial jury having been placed against
him upon his refusal to testify on the
ground Of ton.
Complains of Bond.
Wright related how they went
across the street to the office of the
United States commissioner and were
informed that no warrant had been
applied for. We composed ourselves
in the office Of the commissioner in
humorous anticipation of what might
next befall." Wright said. until pres.
emily bare-headed representative OF
the district attorney appeared, and,
being himself somewhat incoherent,
with the aid of the United States com.
missioner. managed to indict formal
accusation against MIR. Day, who
thereupon waived the issuance of any
warrant and rendered himself and his
surety for the giving of bond.
"A bond OF $4,000 was demanded,
an amount which in such a case has
never been heard of before, a plain
and manifest violation of that part of
the Constitution which commands that
excessive bail shall not be required"
