PROBABLY BE NO
NEW TARIFF SAYS
LEWIS DOUGLAS

"The tariff bill is too high and I
think the chances are probably even
that there will be no new tariff le-
giSlation at this session of Con-
gress", 1t was declared Friday by
Lewis Douglas, Arizona's congress-
man who was here for few hours
visit.
"The proposed tariff bill would
seriously affect our international
trade, said Mr.. Douglas. Thirty
seven different nations have filed
official protests against it and when
I was in Europe in September there
was very serious talk of economic
alliances between the European
countries for the purpose of retalia-
tory legislation by treaty.
In regard to the Colorado River
question, Congressman Douglas
said:
Il think the Boulder Canyon dam
will be back on the floor of Con-
gress again this winter in one form
or another. Suit will be filed by
Arizona, contesting the validity of
the entire act. think we still have
good fighting chance in defeating
the whole thing"

g. 7 TARIFF
WOULD CURTAH
TOMATO ACREAGE

Relative 20 the proposed increase
by the United States government of
the tariff on tomatoes from one half
cent to three cents a pound, an in
crease of 600 percent, l.. H. Burr
OF the MochiS Agricultural Union
said yesterday that such an increase
would mean further r~eot cl,~+";l
ment Of the tomato acreage on thu
west coast of Mexico.
Already the possibility of an in
creased tariff has resulted In the
acreage at present being one half
of what it was last year., he said
land if a three cent tariff is adop-
ted there will be further great cur
tailment".
The proposed three cent tariff
would put the price of tomatoes at
about $100 a box CU. S. money!.
Under half cent tariff they have
been 16 cents box.

Aqua CALIENTEI
MAY GET POOL.
Race Operator Considers
Great Lottery Similar
TO Calcutta
BY JAMES S. SdEEHY

United Press Staff Correspondent
ABOARD S. S. MALOLO, ON
ROUND THE PACIFIC CRUISE,
Nov. 10 (U.P)-A great interna-
tional pool may be opened for the
first running of the Aqua Caliente
100000 added handicap at the new
track at Aqua Caliente, Mex, dur
ing the coming winter racing sea-
son at the border resort, according
to James w. cSunny Jim"D Cof-
froth.
The race will replace the famous
Coffroth handicap, the worlds rich
est purse, which was an annual
feature of the program of the old
Tijuana Jockey Club.
we've talked about opening a
pool similar to the Calcutta for five
years and there is a bare possi-
bility that it might be done this
year in connection with the open
ing of our new track" Coffroth
said. However, there are many
complications and several things to
be considered before proceeding de-
finitely."
Although thousands of miles
from home on the round d-the-P Pacific
cruise of the Malolo, Coffroth is
abs orbed in the opening of the
$1,000,000 track on Dec. 28-eight
days after the cruise ship docks at
San Francisco.
Says It's A Gamble
"It'S a big venture and somewhat
of gamble" he said when inter-
viewed in his suite. "You know
the track is about three and a half
miles from the international border
and to reach it by automobile you
must pass two or three casinos.
That's quite temptation for
gamblers. We hope they won't
blow all their money before having
a chance to play the races"
The new track and increased in
.erest in racing over America no
doubt will mean more and better
horses for the program, and larger
purses, Coffroth said.

cOngratulates Mexico upon hav-
ing such a peaceful election
Sunday.
There were only minor disor-
ders, in fact, the election was
quieter than that in the aver
age American town, and much
more orderly than American
elections held In Chicago and
other big cities. Compared to
Chicago the Mexican presiden-
tial election was a "tea party.
Sundays election has done
much to restore confidence In
Mexico, and has convinced the
American press that peace has
returned to stay in our great
neighbOring Republic.

BOND INVESTMENT
GAINING IN FAVOR
Market for Fixed Interest
Bearing Securities Shows
Big Improvement.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, October ia feature
of the present situation which has been
overlooked is the relation between cur
rent price movements in the stock
market and those in the bond market.
1t has not escaped notice, of course,
that bonds, meaning thereby issues
bought for income and not because
they carry stock privileges of one kind
or another, have been hardening after
their long period of decline.
The recovery in bonds has been cor
rectly ascribed to the easier trend In
money, but that is not the whole story.
Funds which have been going into
stocks In the expectation Of large profits
are now being diverted into fixed in
terest bearing securities. That also Is
a natural sequel of events.
Market Gets Support.
There is still another influence at
work, however, and that is organized
support of the bond market by inter-
ests who wish to establish a better
selling level for new offerings, par
ticularly foreign descriptions. Under
conditions that have been prevailing
for the past year or two it was i'm
possible to distribute a foreign issue
unless it had a speculative flavor.
Whether or not this campaign will sue
coed remains to be seen, but at least
1t has been initiated at a propitious
time.
AS to the outlook for ne stock
market, that is a subject on which one
may obtain almost any view. Public
utilities have few friends simply be-
cause the Street believed that the public
attitude toward this class of stocks has
been entirely changed. They have
long been selling at higher capitaliza-
ton of earning power than any other
group and at last this is being realized
by spectators as well as investors.
Then, too, the utilities, or some of them
at least, have broken through the
resistance points established in the
break of the first week of the month.
The same can be said about many
high priced industrials which have been
leaders in the long bull market. Steel
stocks are in a class by themselves,
but the best opinion is that their future
will depend on developments in the
trade and for the moment those are
uncertain. It was encouraging today
to hear that the Pennsylvania Railroad
has placed the largest order for steel
rails ever given out in any one year
for that or any other railroad. Rail-
road buying is the mainstay of the steel
business for the present.
