REED SAYS TARIFF
 HOPELESSLY DEAD;
 PREDICTS FAILURE
(Contlnued From First Page)

ters as an inevitable course of pro- cedure, if a tariff law is to be en- acted before the regular session be- gins in January.
 Smoot Favors Night Work
 Chairman Shoot of the finance committee, who is in charge of the Dill, has favored this method of hastening a final vote for some time. There is, however, some opposition among the adherents of the demo- cratic-independent republican coali- tion which has proved it's strength repeatedly in opposing the projects of the administration republican group.
 The second week of debate on the individual rate schedules of the measure began today with half of the items in the first schedule, that devoted to chemicals, oils and paint, still to be taken up. Fourteen more schedules remain to be considered when the first has been disposed of and. after these, the free list must be debated.
 Today's daily controversy en- hraoed a. determined effort by the champions of agriculture to impose an increased duty on vegetable, animal and fish oils and fats. The independent western republicans were actively behind a move to fix the tariff on these commodities at 45 per cent ad valorem. as contrasted with various specific duties, cstimat- cd to fall short of that levy.
 Their project had support from the administration group as we'll as from their usual democratic allies. Jones of Washington. the assistant republican leader, and Thomas of Idaho, were active sponsors of the 45 per cent ad valorem rate.
 Philippines Discussed
 The dispute over the oil and fat dutias aroused again the controversy on imports from the Philippines, now duty free. The farm group con- tended that cocoanut oil from She islands was proving a serious com- petitor Of domestic cottonseed oil. The senate already had gone on record, however, as opposed to dis turhing the present free trade ar rGngement with the Archipelago.
 Referring to figures compiled by II. E. Miles Of the Fair Tariff league. Senator Tydings of Mary land, last night declared that the result Of the work of Senator Bing- hams "secretary lobbyist" Charles l.. Eyanson, was proposed tariff rates which would give Connecticut industries an annual revenue in- crease of s53, 3,000,000. He severely condemned Bingham's action in putting Eyanson. an official of the Connecticut Manufacturers associa- ton, on the government payroll as his secretary, and having him at tend the secret sessions of the finance committee, then considering tariff rates.
 Says State Prosperous
 Connecticut industries, Tydings said, are "among the most prosper ous in the country.' He quoted figures on individual concerns to support his contention and described the proposed tariff rates as merely typical instances of the effort to get increased rates merely to swell profits" and tributes to the effec- tiveness of Secretary Lobbyist Evan sons work.

appeal to property owners along Wilson
boulevard. which runs west from Ross
Ign through Clarendon, to make volun-
tary contributions of the rights Of way
for widening of the thoroughfare was
made today by Richard l.. Eacho. chair
man of the roads committee of the Ar
lington District Council of Citizens As
sociations.
Supervisor B. M. Hedrick has said
that the widening of the road is almost
certain if 1t is possible to obtain free
rights of way, and that he will do his
best to have the work done this Spring.
even If this is impossible" Eacho said,
but 1t is only reasonable to suppose
that the project is more assured if the
property owners come forward and VOL
UNFAIRLY offer enough footage to the
county free Of charge TO care for the
widening.
THE Wilson boulevard is the third
heaviest travelled road In the county"
he continued, land it is certainly in
worse condition than any other hard
surfaced road Of equal length in this
section. 1 am confident that Supervisor
iAeuiiCh wiz uo everything III MS power
TO see that this road is made to con-
form with the territory that it serves.
but it is neccs sary for him to receive
the full cooperation of the property
owners to assure the success of the
project"
Mr.. Eacho feels that the resultant in
crease in the value of the property fac
ing on the road will more than compen-
safe the property owners for the amount
of ground that they would give to the
county for the rights of way.

vision Co. of Washington was unani-
mously adopted by the Organized
Women Voters of Arlington County, in
annual meeting yesterday in the Central
Methodist Church at Ballston.
One of the chief objections to the pro-

trance to the National Capital and to
proposed elaborate park and boulevard
development, and it has been suggested
that possibly another site in the county
could be used, but the resolution of the

as health clinic for Arlington district
would soon be demolished, the meeting
adopted resolution urging the board
of supervisors to provide new and per-
manent structure for the clinic. The
coun has been paying rent for the
present clinic structure in the district
and the resolution advocates that the
next building be bought outright, that
tie clinic may be permanently located,
policy that is being followed in Wash
ington and Jefferson districts.

stltution of the organization as revised
