TARIFF AID BASED
ON PARTY PLEDGES
Came to Capital to See They
Were Enacted Into Law,
He Tells Senators.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Joseph r. Grundy, president of the
Pennsylvania Manufacturers Associa-
ton, testifying before the Senate lobby
committee today, declared that he had
come to Washington to "see that the
Republican platform pledges were
enacted into law" in connection with
tariff legislation.
Mr.. Grundy told the committee that
he had been in Washington, working
in the interest of the protective tariff
during the consideration of every tariff
bill since the Dingley bill in 1897. He
said that he was himself a manufac-
turer.
"I pay my own expenses" said Mr.
Grundy. mo one ever paid any of my
expenses" In this connection he said
that he had been in Washington during
the last 10 months; that he maintained
an Office here in the Transportation
Building while he lived at the Mayfower
Hotel.
The witness estimated that it had
cost him $4,000 a month to maintain
his Office here, or between $40, 600 and
S25,000 during the 10 months he has
been here. All of it, he said. came out
of his own pocket and he never expected
to get any of it back from any one.
Holds Election Was Mandate.
"I feel have obligations resting upon
me-" said Mr.. Grundy, land that have
a right to see that the Republican plat
form is put into law
Chairman Caraway suggested that as
the manufacturers put up the money to
win elections they should get the legis-
lation that they want; that they should
get their money back.
Mr.. Grundy said that the country
had grown and prospered under the
protective tariff theory, and that the
Republican party had been put into
power in the last election supporting
that theory, and that he believed the
election was mandate Of the people
to be carried out.
did you think 1t was necessary to
be here in Washington to watch your
party, which is in control of both houses
of Congress?" asked Senator Caraway.
Mr.. Grundy said that he did not
think that there were enough Of those
interested in the protective tariff down
here" and in reply to further questions
as to whether he was satisfied with the
tariff bill, he said:
1.-The bill is not passed yet and We
do not count on chickens before they're
hatched."
Seeks to Read Statement.
Mr.. Grundy said that there had been
hundreds of persons in Washington be-
sides himself interested in the tariff
bill. Senator Caraway asked him to
name some of those with whom he had
co-operated or who had assisted him
and Mr.. Grundy mentioned William
Burgess and Secretary Claudel of the
American Tariff League.
At this point, Mr.. Grundy sought
leave to read to the committee long
statement covering his activities in
Washington.
Senator Caraway, speaking for the
committee, refused to allow Mr.. Grundy
to read the statement.

An alleged plot which would have in

north CT here was thwarted last night
by three men, who removed the obstruc-
ton from the Baltimore & Ohio tracks
about an hour before the train arrived.
The train was halted for 18 minutes

resulted several hours later in the ar

according to officers, that they placed
the automobile on the tracks in plot
to collect damages for its destruction.
Car Accidentally Found.
The sedan was placed on the tracks
on a steep grade, and was discovered by

report from Harbor Grace that the

message reporting the finding of
airplane wreckage by an unidentified
ship was stated by the Newfound-
land management to be without
foundation. The management has
had no message from the Kyle,
which is at present on the Northern

originated from the steamship Scy-
thia's message last night that no
sign of the plane had been seen.
This message was in code and the
reports spread that Urban F. Diteman,
missing in his flight to London, had
been found.

This key is missing from the fifth
precinct, although stories as to how
long it has been missing are conflicting.
One statement is that it has been miss
ing for II years and another that II
has been missing S years. A third
statement is that the key was in the
station house three weeks ago, with the
handle broken off.
At the same time Inspector Headley
reported the finding of dummy key
made of soft lead and containing two
hack saws inside the shank. This key
was too large to At into either lock,
but it resembled the proper key closely.
1t was found in the automobile of
Policeman L. A. Craig, late yesterday
afternoon. Policeman Craig turned the
key over to Inspector Headley.
The police manual makes it the duty
of station clerk to visit the cells every
half hour. He may delegate this to
another policeman, according to In
spector Headley, but the responsibility
remains his.

According to the report a visit was
made to the cell at 4:30 am. by Police

The President appeared remarkably
well and fresh today, considering the

more than four hard days of travelling,
throughout which time it rained almost
necessarily, and was cold during his
rides through the streets in the cities
he visited. He and Mrs. Hoover rode
in an automobile, but they appear not
to have suffered in the least. The
President, however, looked tired when
he went aboard his special train on the

o'clock last night and headed back for

One more long long step in the
onward progress of Nogales is be-
ing signalized today with the open
ing of the new Mission Drug Store
located in the beautiful newly COM
pleted j. A. Cumming building, 100
Grand avenue.
Ultra modern in every respect
this store will represent everything
that is desirable in business of its
kind and Nogales has every reason
to be extremely appreciative of this
new commercial venture.
The equipment and furnishings Of
the new store are most pleasing to
the eve. Finished in mission style
throughout, with six suspended por-
celain lamps of futuristic design, the
interior presents most attractive
aspect.

kept constantly in stock, and with
the special biological refrigerator
for the preservation of vaccines,
and other articles of perishable ma
ture, the public may feel assured at
all times of securing only the best

by this firm will be especially fea-
tured.
A complete fine of the best sta
tionery will also be available at all
times, as well as cigars and cigaret-
tes, which is located just inside the
entrance. A full line of holiday
goods will shortly be on display and

one of the modern forms of patriotism
have helped to destroy the aristocracies
in most of those lands from which the
new European states were formed after
| the victory of the entente. Among
many subject races-the Polish. the
Czech, the Rumanian and the Serbo-
Croat nationalities-the landed aristoc-
racy was not patriotic; the aristocrats
often belonged to the nationality OF the
conquerors rather than to the nation
atty of the conquered ones.
This was especially true in Czecho-
slovakia. In Croatia some Of the great
titled land owners were of SlaVonic
origin, but in social afhliation they con-
sidered themselves Austro-G Germans, or,
to use a phrase of the old Austrian
slang, "gelb und schwarz"-yellow and
black, from the colors of the empire
banner. Both groups were hated and
feared by the populations. When fear
disappeared with the victory of the
Municipalities, only hatred remained. 1t
is quite natural that the aristocrats who
were traitors TO the national cause have
now lost all influence.
Peasant Proprietorship.
In Czechoslovakia, Rumania and
Jugoslavia, proprietorship Of the peas
ants and, at least, of the non-nobles,
has replaced the former almost COM
plete monopoly of land held by the
aristocracy. That is why modern Hun
gary, where nothing of this sort has
happened, is like an island of big
aristocratic estates surrounded by an
ocean of small properties. This ousting
of the ariStocracy from its estates saved
RuInania, Jugoslavia and Czechoslo-
vakia from the bolshevist menace on
their fianks-especially Rumania. The
small landowners of these countries
may have many shortcomings-and, in
deed, some of their governments have.
But they are the reality Of tomorrow.
They are, much more than they believe

themselves, the greatest growing reason
for peace in the European East.
The Hungarian aristocrats know that
their landless peasants look with some
envy on their Slav neighbors. This is
why-perhaps with all sincerity, for the
art of elf-deception Is so deep-the
Magyar aristocracy waves aloft the
banner of arch-patriotism and recon-
quest. It Is an old trick-this over
emphasis upon patriotism when there
is danger of dissatisfaction at home.
But. powerful, spirited, intelligent,
deeply conscious of It's rights as the
Hungarian aristocracy still is-the only
aristocracy left, as an organization, on
the European continent--it is inpoS-
sible to deny that the great source Of
its agitation is the fear of losing It's
privileged economic position. And this,
all the same, constitutes a certain diff
ference between them and their an
cestors who wanted to die for their
queen, Maria Theresa. $50.
Cause Of Disappearance
II aristocracy has disappeared from
Austria-where, with the exception of
a few brave and noble personalities, the
highest hochgeborene proved, In Mo-
vember, 1918, to be preoccupied much
more with their estates and their COM
fort than with their loyalty to the
dynaSty-and has disappeared (only
empty appearances remaining) from
Italy, France and Germany, the disap-
pearance was. of course, due to serious
historical and economic reasons.
But-to dispose of an argument
which has only an external link with
the very essence of aristocracy-one
might remark that the cheap MULTIPLE
cation of titles in continental Europe
during the last two centuries was an
additional, If only secondary. cause
Of discredit.
All serious students of heraldry agree
that the 80 French Kings from the
eleventh century to the end Of the
