adjournment:
"I venture to say that if every Senator,
were left absolutely free from any infiu-
ence of possible political effect as the
result OF his vote, there would be an
overwhelming vote in favor of imme-
diate adjournment. If we had 80
cents worth of courage we would vote
now to adjourn"
Is there any worthwhile construction
to be brought out Of all this? There is.
Making q tariff bill this way Is bad
for politics, bad for politicians, bad for
statesmen, If any. 1t Is hurtful to the
courage and morale of all public life.
Also, making tariff this way results III
a bad tariff. In short, the tariff Is bad
for politics and politics is bad for the
tariff
The tariff ought never again to be
made this way. This Is not merely the
dictum of an inconSequential observer
It is the deeply held, seasoned, earnest
conviction of nine-tenths of the Senate
BY going through the Congressional
Record and some newspaper Sympo-
Sums I have seen could find strong
expressions Of opinion to this effect
from fully so Senators. If the whole
Senate were painstakingly interviewed,
nine-tenthS of them, I am confident,
would subscribe to this judgment.
The only Senator from whom have
found public statement in dissent is
Shortridge of California. He says:
There is nothing wrong with our sys-

The Marking government, in identical
notes, appeals to the governments sig
natory Of the Briand-Kellogg pact Ito
take appropriate steps to stop and pun

ing 1t as a deliberate violation of the
anti-war pact; and there appears to
be a possibility of some sort of re-
sponsive action by the governments of
United States, Great Britain and Japan
under the general terms of the Kellogg
pact.
On the 9th Moscow announced ac-
ceptance by the Manchurian authorities
OF its demands concerning the Chinese

drawal from Manchuria of the invading

There seems strong possibility that,
in default of effective action under the
Kellogg pact, Marking would make for
NAL application to the League for its
covenant), in her dispute with Russia.
There Is evidence that the League Is
not eager to intervene. The present
president Of the League Council is a
Persian.
A Moscow dispatch informs US that
the demands accepted by Chang HSueh-
Liang, Super Tuchun Of Manchuria, are
as follows:
81. Oflcial consent by the Chinese to
restoration Of the situation of the Chi

the conflict on the basis of the Peking-

In accordance with the Peking- -Mukden
agreement. 3. Immediate release of

gotiation.

Wall Street never whines. It can give

speculator seeks q sympathetic shoulder

The pitiful part of the break is that
the conservative investor has suffered

Wall Street was getting just little
bit swelled-headed and overfond of
pleasure. Subjected to the corroSion

were beginning to believe they had the
divine right to do as they pleased any,

corruption in all the capitals in the

Into this picture they inject the
Hoover proposal France, they say, will
oppose the exemption of food ships
from naval operations. Their ostensible
reason for doing so will be that it nulli-
fleS the economic sanctions of the
League of Nations against an aggressor
state. But Mr.. Hoover hopes to smoke
them out.
If the French insist upon an un-
limited number of submarines, then her
real purpose must be to keep her hands
free in case of necessity to use her
submarines against Great Britain and
bring that proud island to her knees
by the starvation process. Rather than

ment runs, France will find It expedient
to yield something and Mr.. Hoover's

Scouts Take Two-Day
Hike To Wallula Gap
By Carl Precht

Friday after school a group of
seventeen enthused Boy Scouts
were impatiently waiting with their
packs and enough food to last them
two days to take on their long
planned hike.
The place chosen by the boys
for their weekend pleasure was a
few miles past Hover on the river,
commonly known as "the gap"
When their destination was reached
the boys Immediately started to
choose their camps among the will
lows and gathered driftwood,
which was used to feed the camp
fires for the two days following.
The first meal of the trip con-
sisted of a camp stew. The old
adage "too many cooks spoil the
broth" was far from being true
among the scouts, for every boy
in camp brought one carrot, one
potato and an arnnful of drift
wood. While the stew was cooking,
the boys played games between
the glowing campfire and the
beautiful moonlit river.
After the meal, the evening was
finished with games and campfire
songs. The bugle, for retiring, was
heard and before the boys left
they urged the senior patrol lead
er and the scout master not to over
sleep. In few minutes the camp
was quiet and everybody was
warmly nestled away under their
blankets.
When dawn looked over the
stony cliff, every person in camp
was nearly finished with their
breakfast, and ready to hike over
the high cliffs which could be seen
all around us. On this hike many
interesting things were discovered
and found. Among the collection
was an old musket ball which was
evidently shot over from Fort
Walla Walla during Indian days.
This fort could be seen directly
across the river from our camp.
Sunday Afternoon Rev. Cederberg
gave the scouts a fascinating talk
concerning scout life and scout
duties. The trip was made possible
by Emil Behrman and Harvey
White, who offered their cars and
services in both bringing and TAX
