OF NEW TARIFF MEASURE
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
Chairman Hawley of the House ways
and means committee said yesterday that
foreign criticism of the administrative
features of the new tariff bill was not
justified and that the changes in the
administrative sections were brought
upon themselves by foreigners.
Appearing before the Southern
States Agriculture Commissions tariff
conference, Hawley declared the new
method of validating products was re-
sorted to after Juggling Of invoices, .
and direct refusals to allow American
investigation of production costs made
it impossible to gain fair understand
ing Of comparative conditions in pro-
duction in this country and abroad.
The bill, he added, would not inter
fere with foreign trade.
