|DR|VES ARE WAGED
| FOR TARIFF VOTES
Republican Leaders Seek De-
feat in Debenture and
Flexible Provisions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Intensive drives for votes were under
way in the Senate yesterday prepara-
tory for tomorrow's critical test on the
tariff bill
Republican leaders were striving hard
to swing four or five votes their way
to enable them to gain decision
against the export debenture and legiS-
lative flexible tariff provisions, opposed
vigorously by President Hoover and the
House.
Democratic chieftains were marshall
ing all available strength to repeat
their former victories on the two
amendments They were promised the
support of the Republican Independents,
who helped the minority write the dis
puted provisions in the bill.
Presidents Hands on.
President Hoover has refused to take
hand in the controversy. He has
made his position clear on both amend
ments in formal statements and in
messages to Congress. and feels it is
not up to him to act further until
bill is sent to him.
The House has turned down the Sem
ate's debenture and flexible proposals
by big majorities and its conferees have
refused to negotiate further with the
Senate managers until the latter are
given authority to work out COM
promise.
The Senate conferees, pledged to in
sist on acceptance of the propositions,
will ask the Senate tomorrow to re-
lieve them of this tie.
Separate Votes Desired.
Democrats on the Senate finance
committee, met yesterday with Senator
Robinson of Arkansas, the minority
leader, and decided to ask separate votes
on the two items embraced in the reso-
luton on which the decision will be
made.
I'VE won on both of these proposals
before, and We hope to win again" SEN
ator Robinson said after the meeting.
Senator Simmons. Democrat, North
Carolina. conceded that a Democratic
victory on either amendment would put
it up to the House, and If that branch
persisted in its opposition the bill
would die.
The debenture amendment was
adopted by the Senate several months
ago by az to "a, with 19 Senators
paired or not recorded. The flexible
provision taking away authority from
the President to change duties was
approved. ~ to AZ, with six paired or

Nv the Associated Press.

HAVANA, May 1.-THE American
Chamber of Commerce of Cuba yester-
day wired Secretary of Commerce Rob-
ert P. Lamont at Washington pro-
testing what it called "the disastrous
effect the United States tariff bill will
have on Americas exports" should
Congress pass the pending bill.
American manufacturers in Cuba say
they will suffer heavily If the bill goes
through.
Lawrence B. Ross acting president of
the chamber, said, There has been
a tariff increase on number of Cuban
imports from the United States in
the last few days. expect to see
many more American exports affected
before the end of the month.
THE tariff on butter. lard and meats
and condensed milk-the latter an all
important commodity here-has been
boosted.
Cuba is beginning to strike back
at the United States. There is only
one word which describes the situation
"a word which dislike using. But
it certainly seems as though Cuba were
retaliating and would continue to re.
taliate by building up a tariff wall Of
its own"

STATE OWES MILLIONS
TO HEIRS OF MEN OF 1912
New York Suggestion That Federal
Government Pay Claims Has
Produced No Results

BY the Associated Press.
ALBANY, N. Y, May 17.-New York
State owes about IS, 500, 900 to heirs of
men who fought in the War of 1912,
Attorney General Ward revealed today,
but there Is little likelihood that any
body will collect.
Wards figures are based on an in
vestigation of State records, prompted
by the claim of heirs for $58.67 for the
services of one Carlos Carter in that
war.
Ward reported that early Legislatures,
after passing a law authorizing pay
ment to soldiers who served without
pay or provided their own uniforms or
rations, had forgotten 10 appropriate
any money to make The payments.
The act merely provided that the
claims should be legal whenever any
moneys shall be received by the State
from the Government OF the United
States"
The United States has been deaf to
this suggestion, and New York State
will continue to owe the $5,500,000,
Ward said unless the Legislature ap-
propriates money to pay the claims.

ROAD WIDENING
SUIT DISMISSED
Marlboro Court Refuses In.
junction in Baltimore
Boulevard Project.
BY GEORGE PORTER.
STAFF Correspondent OF The Star.

UPPER MARLBORO, July Am in
junction suit brought by two residents
of the town of Laurel to prevent the
State Roads Commission from taking
part of the sidewalk in front of their
home to widen the Baltimore Boulevard,
will be dismissed in accordance with an
opinion in the case by Circuit Court
Judge Joseph c. Mattingly here.
The opinion states that the bill of
complaint of Mr.. and Mrs. George w.
S. MuSgrave will be dismissed and the
State Roads Commission given permis-
sion to take a portion of the sidewalk
so that the boulevard may be widened
to 40 feet.
Second Victory.
The action of the court was the Sec
ond legal victory of the Roads Commits
sion of the week, Chief Judge Samuel
K. Dennis Of Baltimore having signed
an order Tuesday restraining Mr.. and
Mrs. John H. Selling. who also live in
Laurel, from interfering with the con-
struction of the widened boulevard.
Judge Mattingly's opinion traces the
history of the Baltimore Boulevard for
over a century, pointing out it was first
turnpike with an intended width of 60
rect, then county road OF uncertain
width, and finally, in Laurel, a town
street. The parties owning the land
binding on this, by their own survey
fixed the width at SO feet, and the town
OF Laurel seems to have acquiesced,
making no claim to a street of so feet.
The present boulevard is "a feet wide
through the town, and the opinion of
the court that the town has a 5O-foot
right-of-way allows ample room for the
proposed widening to 40 feet.
Widening Was Delayed.
After reviewing the evolution Of the
boulevard, the court points out that ut
must be remembered that this highway
was not new road or street dedicated
for the first time and to be accepted
by the mayor and council as q new
entity, but became a part of Laurel at
Its incorporation, with the right fixed
in the public, and has now been ira
versed as thoroughfare for more than
100 years"
The suit has delayed the widening of
the boulevard through Laurel for nearly
two months, having been fled May Is,
naming the mayor and council of
Laurel, as well as the State Roads Com
mission as defendants. On May 20 the
Roads Commission filed a cross-bill
asking the court for an Injunction to
restrain the Musgraves from interfering
with the construction Of the road. At
torneys Hershey, Donaldson, williams
and Stanley appeared for the commits
sion.
