TARIFF DISPUTE
IS FORUM SUBJECT
Senators Vandenburg and
Barley to Debate Issue
Over Radio.

The controversy which has arisen
between President Hoover and coali-
ticn of Democrats and Republican
progressives in the Senate over the
flexible provision of the tariff bill will
be the subject of addresses delivered
by Senator Arthur H. Vandenburg of
Michigan and Senator Alben w.
Barley of Kentucky in the National
Radio Forum under the auspices Of
night.
Senator Vanderburg. Republican, will
support the flexible provisions OF the
tariff and Senator Barley, Democratic
member of the Senate finance commit
tee, will oppose those provisions. The
Democratic-Republica progressive CO.
alition of the Senate has stricken those
provisions from the pending tariff bal
and the contest threatens to imperil
the final passage of that measure. IN
der the flexible provisions of the tariff
bill, which is similar to those of the
existing law, the President is author
cent the rate of duty in any tariff
schedule after the United States Tariff
Commission has investigated and re-
ported to him.
The opponents of the President in
this matter contend that this is dele
cation of power which should not be
made by Congress. They have substi-
tuted plan whereby the Tariff Com
mission is instructed to report on a
tariff schedule which it has investigated
to Congress. leaving that body to deal
with it. They have further provided
that no amendments to a bill dealing
with tariff schedules which are not
germane shall be offered during its
consideration in Congress-,

LAST AMENDMENT
ON TARIFF BILL UP
Final Individual Proposal to
Delay Fight Expected Be.
fore Senate Today.
BY the Associated Press.

~ thC hoSVNiabCd 1902
The last Of the individual amend
ments delaying the start of its long
contest over tariff rates confronted the
Senate today with leaders increasingly
conscious that less than two months
remains before the special session ends
The leaders of the Democratic and
independent Republican groups which
have repeatedly stayed the efforts of
the Republican regulars to carry out
President Hoover's wishes in admin
iStrative sections Of the bill watched
the approach of the final test of their
coalitions strength with increasing OPP
timiSm.
Republican leaders, on the other hand,
dismissed the latest Democratic Repub-
lican independent victory-scored yes
terday in defeating committee amend
ment to authorize manufacturers, pro-
ducers, wholesalers, labor, agricultural
and consumers organizations to inter-
vene in customs litigation involving re-
appraisals-with reiteration that the
numerous and varied rate issues would
break up their ranks.
Before the rate schedules could b.
reached. however, the Senate was called
upon to dispose of several other pro-
posalS and the desire Of Senator Thorn
as, Democrat, Oklahoma, to have the
bill sent back to the finance committee
with instructions to limit revision to
agricultural rates.
The Oklahoman's motion, advanced
without the support of his party lead
ers, is similar in intent to a proposal
by Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho,
which failed of adoption last Spring by
only one vote. Little hope was held out
to him, however, that his motion could
muster the support given the Idahoan

trial"
Fall Willing TO Appear.
Despite the defendants condition this
morning, Mr.. Hogan said, he had eX-
pressed willingness to come to court.
His physician, however, refused to
allow him to leave bed.
Mr.. Fall was able to attend the first
two days of his trial only through the
application of drugs. His luncheon
yesterday, Mr.. Hogan stated, consisted
of dose OF drug and whiskey. The
enfeebled man was reported to have
spent restless night and was able to
Sleep only when administered an opiate.
Mrs. Fall and Mr.. Doheny, the latter
witness in the trial, spent this morn
ing at his bedside.
Justice HitZ, in saying that he would
ask DR.. Ruffln to examine the defend
ant for the court, announced that he
would instruct him first to get into
communication with Mr.. Falls per-
sonal physician.
In view of the turn of events, JUS
tice Hitz asked counsel on both sides
if there were any legal matters in con-
nection with the trial that could be
taken up today. Neither Owen j.
Mr.. Hogan could think of any. Nor
could they make any suggestion to the
court as to further procedure in view
of the defendants absence.
Son-in-law Is Witness.
Justice Hitz inquired in a rather
solicitous tone whether any of the
seven attorneys engaged in the trial
were in need Of physician.
"Oh. We are alright" replied William
E. Leahy of denfense counsel.
III bear that in mind the next time
you ask for continuance" the judge
smiled as the attorneys joined in a
hearty laugh.
While it is doubtful whether the trial
OF Mr.. Fall will proceed unless he shows
a decided improvement in his condi-
ton. his son-in-law, c. c. Chase of FL
PaSo, is waiting to be called as a
witness in event it is resumed.
After the jury had been excused yes
terday afternoon, Roberts offered EVIL
dence of leases granted by Fall prior
to that given the Doheny Co. Through
Ernest K. Hill, secretary to former Sem
ator Irvine L. Lenroot of Wisconsin

The Government then called as it's next
witness, Mr.. Chase, but he did not re-
spond, having accompanied his father
in-law to his hotel when Fall was ex-
cused. From Mr.. Chase, the Govern
ment will elicit information bearing
upon the transaction in Ell Paso in
volving the purchase of the Harris
ranch, for which Fab obtained the
money from his wealthy oil friend of
