DEPOSITORY TO TIE TARIFF BILL
 GAINING POWER

WASHINGTON, May Is, (P)- Like a huge snowball rolling down hill, opposition to the tariff bill introduced into the house by the representative m m bers of the Ways and means committee is gaining power constantly. The low voice of the President was over heard through the intermission in protest against the measure as an example of unlimited revision uf which he earlier disapproved.
 He is not entirely dissatisfied and is represented as not desiring to use a "big stick" but he never theless hopes the senate will make changes so that the bill will be more acceptable to him. Spokes- men for President Hoover feel that the proposed sugar tariff is too high.
 The democrats are ii gh tins g against the tariff measure as we'll as the farm relief bill with the idea of creating political material for congressional elections of 1880. Their efforts have not been with out some success and the ad- ministration may find itself threat ened further.
 Protest is forthcoming fro m many interests on provision of a new bill which authorizes ap- praisels of customs to envoke American methods of import GUS toms duties where they are un- able to ascertain foreign values.
 Meanwhile the National AsSoci- ation of Manufacturers presented a plea to congress containing ' special methods of adjusting tariff rates to bring about a more sta ble and less disturbing scheme of tariff administration.

decades, and aroused in him desire to
venture forth into the world of today,
that he might see, for himself, what
humanity had been doing in the years
of self-enforced seclusion that had set
him apart from his fellow men.
Another tremendous urge toward his
mental resurrection was the sale of the
old homestead and consequent purchase
of another house by the family--Which
meant to him another generation.
When Washington Irving's Rip van

not even his good dog Schneider was

a point was scored by the Washington
