Interviewed by The Tribune today.
he said his main reason was the need
Of new county court house. He also
called attention to his offer Of q year

housing the corn and other shows

Il have been questioned daily, by

House Expected to Pass New
/ Tariff Measure Today and 5.
Send Il to Senate
REvIsEs RATES UPWARDS
Every Man, Woman and Child
IN Nation Affected by
Changes Proposed
Washington, May 2S.-(P,-rhe
mouse, today, passed the tariff
bill and sent 70 the senate.

Washington, May 2s. -N - SUBJ
stantial increases in import duties on
thousands Of commodities Of the farm
and factory are provided for in the
new tariff bill which before nightfall
Is expected to be passed by the house
and sent to the senate.
The measure. the first tariff legis-
lation In seven years. also recon-
mends sweeping changes In admins
trative provisions Of the law and a
reorganization Of the tariff commits
sion under q system designed to speed
up its work.
The bill reviscs, mostly upward,
rates In every dutiablc section ct
tie existing Fordney- McC Cumber law,
which It is designed to supplaat.
Every man, woman and child in the
country and nearly every foreign ma
ton In the world is affected by the
economic changes proposed by the
measure in the Seven.year- Re-
publican protective tariff structure.
Perhaps the most far-reaching
change Is the advance CT sixty-four
hundredths Of cent in the effective
duty on sugar, raising the present
duty Of 1.76 cents pound on Cuban
raw sugar to 2.4O cents.
Designed to Aid Farmers
Other rates advanced, designed to
aid the farmer and manufacturer, af-
feet such commodities as wool. cattle,
dairy products, meats, grains, textiles,
glass, paper, furniture, and clothing
Of all descriptions.
Important commodities long al
lowed free entry into the United
states are made dutiable, including
hides, leather, boots and shoes, ce-
ment, common building brick, shin
kles, cedar, maple and birch lumber.
The. measure also sets up an en-
tirely new rate schedule to embrace
manufactures Of artificial silk under
the official name of 'rayon." These
goods are protected In existing law
under the silk schedule.
Wool Raise Important
From q public standpoint the In
creases in the sugar rate and the
boosting Of the duty on raw wool
from 81 to 81 cents pound are re-
sarded as more important than the
others. The duties placed on shoes
and raises in rates on hundreds Of
other farm and factory products also
will have a E,aring on family budgets
unless producers absorb the higher
imposts instead Of passing them on
to the consumers.
While the measure Is understood to
be objectionable In some respects to
President Hoover, It meets his re-
quest for q reorganization OF the
tariff commission by providing au-
thority for him to terminate the
terms Of office Of the present SIX
commissioners at his will.
The recreated commission would be
composed Of seve. members instead

he thinks of Norris, who can blame him? Heaven knows he sent a long enough procession of emissares to Norris long before the republican rational convention. assuring Mr Norris that Mr. Hoover was d pro- gressive of his own stripe and would shortly be coming out boldly for the things for which Mr. Norris stood. It wasn't Mr. Hoover's fault that Mir. Norris had to be shown before he would support Mr. Hoover's candi- daCy.
 Mr. Norris is the most important figure in the senate today and he doesn't agree with Mr. Hoover on the points concerning which Mir. Hoover scms most interested. So it is easy to believe the stories which would have Mir. Hoover planning to throw the administration influence behind anyone whom Mir. Hoover believes able to defeat Mir. Norris. The only subject Of speculation here is why Mir. Hoover isn't willing to let Mr. Norris retire without batting him into another fight Stories have been coming from the general di- roCtion of the White House to the general effect that Mir. Hoover and the republican organization would start a major offensive against all insurgents in 1880, but Mr. Norris had promised to step out even before Mr. Hoover was elected.
 Few doubt that Mir. Mckelvic is Mr. Hoover's fair-haired boy in Nebraska. MT. McKelvie played Mir. Harding and Mir, Coolidge for a fed cral job and everyone knew he wanted one, MT. Mckelvie, claiming 10 represent the farmers, shouted

NORRIS MAY RUN
 ID SPITE HOOVER
Planned to Retire But Will Not
 Run From Fight

Washington, Nov. 2.-It begins to look as if the one and only George ". Norris of Nebraska, who has : been the most conspicuous figure in the sonatc's special session, would be with us for another six years after his present term expires in 1881. In that case the credit or blame probably will go to President Hoover. There are various signs and re- ports to the effect that Mr. Hoover would like very much 10 get rid of Mr Norris and that Mir. Hoover's champion and co-Worlcr in the un- dcrtaking will be Samuel R. Me kolVio, former Nebraska governor. who would like 10 run against Mir. Norris in the Republican primaries of 1920.
 He'd Planned to Quit Until he began to hear reports of this arrangement, Mr. Norris had rather intended 10 retir" from the senate, He had 10 he trcked into running again in 1924 and a year ol N deO ll' tDltI HIS IltIllS llltI if he ran for public office again it would be for governor Of Nebraska. as he wanted 10 work for an ideal government in his own state. But now Uncle George begins to hear reports that the president has marked him for the slaughter that Mir. Hoover wants 10 send his own trad marked candidate before the Nebraska voters and find ont whether they prefer a conservative, constructive" gent who will work in harness with the White House or an incorrigible independent like Mir. Norris
 And Uncle George has not the re- motest thought Of refusing to ac- ccpt a challenge such as that. In fact, there is no chance at all that he will drop out and let Mir. Me Kolvie walk off with the nomina- tiOn.
 All Of which promises q battle Of the century if Mr. Hoover indicates any interest in the Nebraska fight. If the standpat element in the Re publican party ships its big guns into the state 10 attack Norris there will he a large trek of the most inn portant prOgresslyes pouring into the state on their heels, and the plains of Nebraska will shake with some Of the loudest rumnles of inn paSsiOned Oratory ever heard.
 Heaven knows that Mr. Hoover's provocation has been great. Few mon have been more painful thOrns in the sensitive Hoover hide than MT. Norris And no man who has ever attained a high place in po- litical life has ever been as inde- pedent as MT. Norris.
 Uncle George was a thorn long before the two men ever heard of each other. He led the fight in the house against the arbitrary rule of Uncle Joe Cannon. He is the only man left in the senate of the Twill full" group which fought Wilson's war policy 10 the bitter end. He has fought reacUonary measures
New Britain herald., 1929-11-02

and reactionary men year in and year out.
 He saved Muscle Shoals from politicians of both parties who sought to grab it for Henry Ford or one of the various branches of the power trust. He went into Pennsylvania three years ago and campaisned in the senatorial elcc- ton for the democratic Mr. Wilson against the republican Mr, Ware be- cause he hated corruption. In the presidential election last year he committed the worst political sin of all and declared for Mr. Al Smith as against Mr. Hoover because he thought that Mr. smith was more honest and more progressive.
 You might have thought that the republican senators would have read Mr. Norris out Of the party and taken from him his important chairmanship Of the judiciary con- mittee, They didn't dare because every senator with prctenso 10 pro- = IH9iN iSiI SN ears ny | HCle htOfEc.
