LIQUOR LEAGUE
RACKET MAKES
DEBUT IN CITY
Solicitors Sought to Get
Members at Rate of
10 Cents a Person.

While a dozen eager-eyed appli-
cants sat about on the bed and
chairs in downtown hotel room
and others seeking jobs paying S35

Brown, Kansas City, representative
of the Liberal League of American.
Inc, today initiated Hoosiers in the
newest racket"
Husky voiced. Brown explained he
represents the Liberal League of
America. An elaborate prospectus
and membership roll explains pur-
poses and aims of the organization
thus:
To establish national, state and
city organizations calling for modif1-
cation of the prohibition law and to
petition congress for government
control Of liquor. impart informa-
ton to the members regarding the
dry situation, put out publicity, en-
ploy counsel and exert every effort
to change the law.
Pay 1O-Cent Fee
And last, but not least in impor-
lance, every person who desires to
become a member must pay 10 cents
as membership fee. In return
he receives a card which can be
exhibited as proof of membership.
The green prospectus, however,
does not say that the 10 cents is
divided up as follows:
The solicitor gets 6 cents; the city
manager l cent; the state manager
gets l cent and cents goes to gen.
eral maintenance.
Brown declared that at present
there is no state or city manager,
but that when things get we'll under
way he will appoint these chief
tainS.
According to the prospectus, j. S.
Marley is president; Leo j. Kelly,
secretary, and R. L. Blume is treas
urer.
All are of Kansas City, where
headquarters are located in 918
Scarritt building.
Business Bureau Investigates
AS a proof of the legitimacy of
the organization Brown advances,
what he says is copy of a report
of the st. Louis Better Business
Bureau which sets forth the nature
of the organization and declared:
Nothing contained herein is in
tended to recommend or condemn
this company, but it is furnished
merely in order to help you exercise
your own best judgment"
The Indianapolis Better Business
Bureau is conducting an investiga-
ton.
Every solicitor, who gets cents
for each name signed on the dotted
line must have some business man
sign bond for SIS to insure the
turning over of the roll of members.
Brown huskily tells how difficult
it sometimes is to get some of the
solicitors to turn in the names of
the members and incidentally the
4 cents per name the organizers get.
One applicant asked if it was all
right to solicit members in speak
cries and saloons and he was given
carte blanche.
Brown showed a newspaper which
declared there now are more than
400 1000 members; which represents
$4,000 paid to solicitors and $4,000

Associated Preaa financial Writar.

Associated Press Financial Writer.
One Of the odd quirks Of the tariff
controversy came into the discussions
this week, when Senator Smoot, in
the course OF q routine action, present.
ed and got adopted an amendment
abolishing countervailing duties ON COM
modities enumerated on the standing
free list OF imports. The action was
suggested by the State Department
About one hour after the vote the coal
industry Of the United States decided,
somewhat to the establishment of many
OF Its operators, that it was in danger
OF being rather seriously hurt by the
step.
1t is a surprising fact that. though
the United States Is the greatest coal
producer among the nations and ex-
ports or furnishes ship bunkers with
about 10000, 900 tons per year, which
means that q tariff on coal has never
been suggested in the regular way.
countervailing protection seems to be
demanded. This country has been
willing to let in coal from anywhere
in the world free, provided the country
OF origin lecied no tariff on the Ameri-
can product.
Under this arrangement American
coal is. moving free of duty into nearly
all portions Of the world, except Cam

so cents per ton on the American
product, and consequently incurs a like
duty on its coal exports to the United
States. Under the balance in trade
built up by this equalization of duties,
Canada. though an importer of Ameri-
can coal at most points, has developed
big coal supply to New England from
Nova Scotia mines, and another i'm
portant trade to Northwestern States
from Alberta and british Columbia
mines. The American producers from
West Virginia northward, and clear
across the country, say that the aboli-
ton OF the countervailing provision
would cut into their markets to the
extent Of millions of tons.
In memorandum Immediately got
ten out by the National Coal ASsocia-
ton for circulation among Senate mem
bers, 1t is complained that mo person
engaged in the bituminous mining in
duStry was given any notice of the pro-
posed action or any opportunity to pro-

test against It," and that it is highly
unsettling to encounter action without
warning.
"The effect Of this change would be
felt particularly in the Pennsylvania
and West Virginia fields" the memo
randum continues. go It would
give Canadian mines almost exclusive
Coast and the border States and indi-
rectly AFFECT every American coal-pro-
ductng heid which now sends coal into
either Canada or the Northern States
bordering on the Canadian line"
It is considered rather certain that
the Senate action viii be rescinded,
though in the complex economic situa-
tons upon which the tariff impinges
there are always doubtful points. From
the point of view of the State Depart
ment, the countervailing provisions ap-
plying to commodities which are on the
American free list interfere sometimes
annoyingly with attempts to negotiate
commercial treaties. Also rather few of
the countervailing provisions are re-
garded Of Importance by the producers
of the commodity to which they apply.
But the protest from the coal trade un-
questionably places the impost as to
that product on q different basis.
Fenton B. Turck, vice president of
the American Radiator Co. and head
of the national building survey confer
ence, spent time in Washington this
week closing up lines of organization in
the campaign Of the country's material
men to stimulate building expenditure
In the country during the coming year
All of the principal organizations af-
fected by building have linked them
selves in the endeavor to put some pres
sure behind an effort to get private
building started early, which is one of
the supplemental enterprises President
Hoover suggested in calling together
business leaders of the country.
Inquiry since the survey was set on
foot has disclosed one interesting fact,
Mr.. Turck commented, which is that in
the last eight weeks the reserves Of
building and loan associations over the
country have shown a marked increase
These are, in the main, funds commit
ted to local building, and the advance
in totals available for the purpose IS
naturally, gratifying to the industries
which utilize them.
There is a widespread willingness to
cooperate with any sound efforts we
have tried to develop" Mr.. Tlrck said
of his activities. THE basic purpose we
are confronted with is properly to allo-
