REED GETS REBUKE
ON LABOR GESTURE
Ashurst Takes Pennsylvania
Senator to Task ON Pro.
posed Amendment.
BY the Associated Press.

| By the Associated Press.
Advocacy by Senator Reed, Repub-
lican Of Pennsylvania, Of proposal to
give organized labor the right to in
tervene in customs litigation was termed
today by Senator Ashurst, Democrat Of
Arizona, as an insult to labor.
Denying the charge, Reed said labor
had made strong appeal for the pro-
posal as an amendment to the tariff
bill and that the Department of Jus
tice, while eficient in handling Gus
toms cases, was losing many cases for
the Government because facts were not
available from all interested parties.
AShurst asserted he had witnessed
many a strange spectacle in the Senate,
but the sight Of 1.-THE Senator from
Pennsylvania weeping crocodile tears
for labor is the strangest spectacle I
have ever SEEM"
Replies in Kind.
Reed replied that organized labor
had advocated the amendment strongly
in the pending tariff bill and said II
the Arizona Senator would consult rep
resentatives of labor organizations in
stead of "denouncing me for an mag
mary SubServience to the steel trust, "
IT will never consult the Senator
from Pennsylvania If want to know
the feelings of labor" AshurSt shouted
back.
During Ashurst's attack on the
Pennsylvania Senator, he was warned
by Senator Moses Of New Hampshire,
who was presiding, that he was near
infringement Of the rules.
The Senate rejected the Norris labor
amendment, as well as similar pro-
posed amendments, giving the same
rights to agricultural and consumers
organizations. The vote was A to Il.
Coalition Sees Hope.
The hopes of leaders of the Demo-
cratic and Independent Republican
groups to dictate the entire tariff bill,
had fresh support as debate approached
on the crucial rate schedule.

three times victorious in contests with
the Observation-Disclosures seen by its
leaders in the defeat of the Republican
amendment to permit customs APP
praisers in certain instances to resort
to an estimated value In levying ad

regular fLcpuOlACdA 4CdOCAc AASAotC0,
however, that the vote on this issue,
44-37, did not sustain the claims that
the coalition would hold intact through
consideration of the numerous changes
proposed in the imposts, which Is ex-
pected to start tomorrow or Thursday.
Proposal for Labor.
Confronting the last of the amend
ments proposed to the administrative
clauses of the bill, the Senate today
turned to the Republican proposal to
give labor as well as manufacturers and
Importers representation in customs
litigation.
A move to prevent notification Of
the coalitions victory over the admin
istration in taking the flexible tariff
powers away from the President, mean
while, has been initiated by Senator
Mcclellan, Democrat, Tennessee.
His proposal is that the Senate itself,
instead of the Vice President, designate
the chambers committee, when the time
comes, to confer on differences in the
measure with Representatives of the
House, which voted to continue the fiex-
ible tariff policy favored by the Presi-
dent.

ITO everybody but Latham Hooper. that is.
Latham stood uneasily aside and watched
the doctor operate. The doctor saw Latham,
but didn't pay any attention to him. At the
rate he was going he didn't have to. For by
the time his drum and retinue had reached the
alley back Of Commissioners street, his pro-
fessional prospects had never been brighter.
And there, merely to prove his miraculous
powers, he found so cents in Gladstone's pock-
cts. Most astonished of all at this was Glad
stone, who was only rarely able to accomplish
such feat himself. Then, not content with
miracles, DR.. Emerson clinched his reputation
by diagnosing Gladstone's ailments publicly.
Els you ever felt hongry befo' an after meals,
tired in front Of job of work, sleepy right
after you eats or de sun gifts hot?" he fired
without pause at his gaping patient.
"Sho isl" gulped Gladstone.
DIR. Emerson looked serious. Everybody
looked serious-except Sim Silver, the under
taker, who frightened shade too much for
Gladstones comfort
"Hmmm!" DR.. Emerson shook his head
glOomiy. In no time now Gladstone saw HIM

Gladstone unhesitatingly followed directions,
blinked, and shortly admitted: "Sho is feel bet

In the outskirts of the crowd Latham wit
messed the cure of his witless cousin. Some
body was fixing to do big business in La

one else did would come under the head of

ILLUSTRATED BY BERT SALC.

TRAIGHT down Strawberry street
came the boom boom boom Of a big
bass drum. Back of it, creating the
booming. came "Ducktcoth" Carpess
the color of a dark night, and lar 700
short for the long blue coat that Mapped aoout
his diversified heels.
Tn largo letters on either surface of the drum
WAS blazoned forth the public admission that
DR. Emerson read the future, located buried
treasure and cured all incurable diseases.
And back of Ducktooth marched the emil
nent physician and seer himself, in complexion
mitlnieht's only rival, Respondent in opera hat'
long tailed coat.
As the two-man procession crossed the rail-
road track and headed for the river bottoms
"Doctor" Emersons protruding eyes roved from
curb to curb scanning the faces OF the cfowo
of admirers that began to line his way at the
sound of the drum. But when his gaze leH
upon the knobby-jointed length Of Gladstone
Smith it roved no longer. Even piino Strah-
ger could tell without his glasses that Glad
stone had been born for what the doctor had
in mind. And in response to his beckonmg
finger Gladstone slid into the street mpor-

Gladstone backed up and swelled with glory.
An old dream was coming true. Out OF all
colored Damopolis he was picked to help around
q bass drum! Ducktooth reached up to new
attitudes and showed what boy could do when
he didn't have anything to take his mind and
muscles of his drumming. The crowds teeth
cleaned like the keys on baby grand piano,
and its members began to move delghtedly
