Bright, light shades in rouge

Delegates to the S9th convention of Connecticut Odd Fellows applaud ed Mayor Paonessa today when he opened their business meeting by ex- pressing a conviction that the prohi- bition act is responsible for much ot the crime in the country. and that the 18th amendment has been any thing but a benefit to the United States.

C0NGRESSMEN ASK
 TARIFF INCREASES
Middle Westerners Plead That Rates on Farm
 Products Are Low

Washington, May 15 @-House ways and means committee republi- cans who drafted the pending tariff bill still were concerned today with the objections raised by the repre- sentatives from 10 western farm states against the proposed agricul- turai schedule.
 Only fve mem bers of the group were heard at their first session yes- terday under the plan to consider suggestions for changes and advance those found acceptable as commit tee proposals with privileged status after the measure is taken up for amendment late this week or early next week.
 Many of the farm group members remained to be heard by the conn mittee today, together with some eastern representatives who are dis satisfied with various provisions in the bill and the committee appoint ed by the group interested in cattle production and grazing to work for higher rates on livestock and trans fer of hides and leather from the free to the dutiable list.
 The rate increases proposed thus far by the farm group have to do with cotton, wool. casein. figs and haxsecd. Both the committee bill and the proclamation issued yester- day by President Hoover putting in to effects proposals of the tariff commission under the flexible pro- visions of the present law provide for an increase in the haxseed rate from 40 to 5S cents a bushel. but Representative Burtness. republican, North Dakota. urged that it be raised to 70 cents

 Dr. Hugo Eckener. commander of the great ship, assembled his IS passengers at the kurgarten hotel shortly before noon and told them he planned to leave at that hour. Weather conditions, he said, were 50 favorable that he expected to make Lakehurst by Saturday night after a flight of from 6o to 70 hours. His probable route will be by way of Besancon to the mouth of the Loire. or if necessary, by way of Cape Finisterre. then straight west ward north of the Azores, reaching the American coast in the neighbor- hood of Virginia. or the District of Columbia.
 The departure of the Graf Zeppe- lin, which had been scheduled originally for this morning, was de- layed because of the lateness of the hour at which Dr. Eckener was no. ttffed that he had been given per. mission by the French authorities 1 to fly over France. The permit, how ever, restricted him to the houri from seven to nine. This, coupled with the shortness of time he had left. caused him to put the flight off 24 hours
 WOnnan's Plans a Mystery
 There was much mystery as to the plans of Mrs. Mary Pierce of New York city. who has taken pas sage aboard the Graf Zeppelin much to the distress of her relatives. Mrs. Pierce. through John E. kehl, American consul at Stuttgart, has received an urgent request from the secretary of state suggesting that she refrain from taking the trip. She promised Mr. kehl that she would not. but there was reason to believe her promise had been made chiefly to keep her relatives from worrying and that she still was planning to make the trip.
 There was much speculation among the guests at the kurgarten hotel and the other 17 passengers of the dirigible as to what Mrs. Pierce intended. The betting odds were de- cidedly in favor of her going. Every one who has observed her spirited
