SENATE RESUMES
 DEBATE ON TARIFF
Attack on Philippine Amend

Washington, Oct. 10 LP-An as sault on the Broussard Philippine independence amendment to the tariff bill was begun in the senate today at the outset of debate ant progressed with such momentum a! to indicate a defeat such as that dealt the King proposal.
 The amendment would request the president to invite other govern ments to send representatives to a conference to consider an agree mcnt to respect the independence and territorial integrity of the Philippines"
 Ear1ley Leads Attack
 Opening the opposition, Senator Barkley, democrat Kentucky, said the proposal on it's face was ri diculoUs." He would not vote for it, he said, because in the first place it had mo business" in the tariff bill.
 Barkloy said he had voted yes terday for the rejected amendment of Senator King, democrat, Utah, which would have granted inde- pcndrnce after constitutional con- ycntiCn had set up 8 form of gov ernment in the islands, adding he favored independence, but doubted the propricty Of such a question be- ing injected into the tariff debate.
 Tt seems 10 be a rather queer performance" he said, "when we are considering a tariff bill to have the Philippine independence matter suddenly become a paramount ques- tion and we are asked to act on a resolution calling for a conference to consider an agreement to respect an independence which we have not yet granted"
 Walsh Opposes Plan
 Senator Walsh, democrat, Non- tana, also opposed the amendment. saying it was entirely unnecessary. The same end could be accomplish ed, he argued, without any agree mcnt such as that proposed.
 Fear Delay Is Too Long
 Washington. Oct. 10 tP)-Fears that the senate cannot complete its work on the tariff bill before the end Of the special session and that the administration would not favor it's revival in the regular session were added today to the worries of the republican leadership.
 Senator Robinson, Arkansas. democratic floor leader, still insist ed that the senate would be able to dispose of the bill by November 10. But Senator Watson. republican, In diana, republican floor leader, was by no means so optimistic
 Despite the efforts of the majority leader to keep down feeling and pre- vent contention. the ranks of the regulars were showing the strain of their frequent defeats at the hands Of the dcmOCratiC-rc republican, inde- pendent coalition during considera- tion Of the administrative sections of the bill
 Watson believes that the repubI- can regulars will be in better posi- ton after the rate schedules are reached late this week or early next week, but he is unable to ignore the signs of stress shown at a meeting of the senate finance committee ma jority.

KAHN TO DECLINE c. O.P. POST

Wall Street Friends.
Moses Expresses Regret-No
Other Name Yet Under Con-

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 30.-Because of
the divided reception" that greeted
his selection as treasurer of the Repub-
lican senatorial campaign committee,
Otto H. Kahn has declined the post.
Announcement of his selection had
been made by Senator George H.
Moses of New Hampshire at dinner
last Thursday given by jeremiah Mil
bank for Claudius H. Huston, Repub-
lican national chairman.
Addresses made at the dinner, pri-
vate affair, were interpreted by news
papers as indicating a declaration of
war by the senatorial campaign COM
mittee against Republican Senators
who oppose President Hoover on the
tariff and other policies.
Liberal in Politics.
Mr.. Kahn, in a letter to Senator
Moses, declared that, while a Wall
Street man, he was a liberal in politics
He said that the divided reception"
with which his designation was re-
ceived, however erroneous some of the
interpretations placed thereon" justified
his earlier belief that he was not the
right man for the position. He asked
that his name be not presented to the
committee.
some OF CNe bankers 1rlenQS IN the
Republican party were inclined to criti-
CHE some Of the speeches made at the
Milbank dinner, contending they placed
Mr.. Kahn in false light. They said
Mr.. Kahn is on very friendly terms
with some of the Progressives, includ-
ing Senators William E. Borah and
Hiram Johnson, and never has been
concerned in any plan to make political
war on any of the ProgreSsive-Repu
lican group.
Moses Expresses Regret.
Senator Moses, at Washington, ex-
pressed regret that any circumstances
should have arisen to lead Mr.. Kahn
to decline. He said he had no idea
who would be selected in his place.
Mr.. Kahn'S selection had received
the Endorsement of Senator Watson of
Indiana, Republican leader in the Sen
ate, and Of Senator Borah The neces-
sity for the appointment of separate
treasurer for the senatorial campaign
committee had been questioned by Jo-
seph r. Mutt, treasurer of the Repub-
lican national committee. In recent
years the senatorial committee has had
no treasurer.
