i. S. TARIFF GROUP
DEFENDED IN TALK
Brossard Holds international
Relations Fostered by
Commission.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press. ..
PHILADELPHIA, May "A defense
Of the United States Tariff Commits
sion as a body free from partisan poll
tics and responsible for administering
the tariff policy of the country was
voiced tonight by DR.. Edgar e. Brossard,
chairman of the commission, in an ad-
dress before the thirty-fourth annual
meeting Of the American Academy Of
Political and Social Science. The COM
mission also was described by DR..
Brossard as an institution for fostering
better international relations.
If the Tariff Commission should &C
cept the advice Of certain critics and
determine the national tariff policy and
should write the tariff bills, DR.. Bros
sard commended, the commission would
be forced into politics. He suggested
PRONUNCIATION Of a definite policy by the
legislative body, based on the scientific
fact -finding of the commission.
On the international phase OF the
Tariff Commissions work and the pro
tests" filed against certain schedules of
the Smoot-Hawley bill, DR.. BroSSard de-
IT is quite NATURAL for other coun-
tries to be interested when the United
States revises the tariff law. The COM
mercial policy of the United States is
TO treat all nations alike. Equality for
all; discrimination against none; spe-
cial favors to none; that, in general, is
the American policy.
THE United States admits free of
duty a greater volume of products than
any other nation In the world, with the
possible exception of Great Britain.
Two-thirds Of all United States imports
enter free Of duty"
He declared that the United States
gets the INSTRUMENTATION treatment
from SO countries, and that only 8
countries give more favorable treatment
to other foreign countries than to the
United States.
Alfred Pearce Dennis, vice chairman
OF the Tariff Commission, told the
academy tonight that the American
| economic policy was patch work of
compromises, the result Of Earring, con-
| fiicting sectional interests"
William C. Redfield of New York,
former Secretary of Commerce, spoke
today on the dependence of the United
| States on foreign trade for part Of its
| economic success.
Tariff -makers, Dennis said, have
been compelled to subordinate the ma
| tional interest to the demand of To-
| calities
I'VE are in a new era of American
investment abroad. American capital
IN foreign enterprises is the ward Of
| foreign governments under which they
are established. II We breed antago-
nism we may expect American business
to be hopelessly harasSed in the four
corners Of the globe and we shall have
no recourse"

tween the two young club members par
ticipating Each club member gives

sumeS the better part of an hour. The

cital under the club auspices in a feSti-
val series. She, too. was well received.
Miss Latimer has very pleasing light
touch and her facile command of the
arpeggios and runs in the solo part Of
Beethoven's Concerto in C. Minor"
showed her at her best. She also played
the Mozart Sonata in A Major, No.
H." very well, especially the famous
Turkish march that is the finale.
Mrs. Hesselbach showed the richness
Of mature style and years Of background
in her playing of the orchestral part
Of the score Of the Beethoven on second
piano.
Miss Beck was at her best in the bril-
liant work in the treble part Of LISTS
Hungarian Fantasy" in which Mrs.
Heinl, like Mrs. Hesselbach, showed the
finish in style and comprehension Of
musical values that a good teacher and
experienced artist should possess. Miss
Beck played all her numbers with
dexterity.

tomorrow's recital will be Leah Effen-
bach, an Eastern High School student,

TO REMOVE
TARIFF |NEQU|T|ES
Administration Is in Control
and Vote on Conference
Report Is Expected.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

The administration, feeling that 1t
must ultimately assume responsibility
anyhow, is now engaged in trying to
remove from the tariff bill its most
glaring inequities.
The House of Representatives is prov
ing responsive and flexible. The ad-
ministration is really in control, and
the prospects are that within few
days the conference report on the tariff
will be completed and ready for final
vote.
The most significant action taken by
either House since the conference began
was the vote on Friday, whereby the
House of Representatives receded from
its position on the sugar schedule from
a rate of $2.40 per hundred pounds
originally adopted by the House to 81
thought that the rate might be fixed at
$220, but administration influence
brought about the low rate.
Prolonged Controversy.
There has been a prolonged contro-
versy over the sugar schedule, and At
one time the Senate was prepared to
retain the existing duty of $1.76. Cuba
has been very much disturbed over the
prospect of prohibitive tariff, arguing
that the entire island would suffer an
economic depression If Cuban products
were shut out by the barrier Of an
American tariff. Billions Of dollars OF
American money are invested In Cuba,
and the purchases by the latter OF
American goods are also considerable.
This is by no means the end OF the
sugar controversy, for with the increaS-
ing production and low cost in both the
Philippines and Cuba the producers
within Continental United States are
"a, aftxy he av1vfattC ea0f last the
competition destroy their business. The
new rate is therefore q kind of compro-
mise in the hope that some method
later may be discovered to curtail pro-
ductiun.
House Cuts Rates.
The House of Representatives in its
various votes on Friday generally revised
the rates downward. This is contrary
to what happened originally when the
House put the rates up fairly high
Many of the rates adopted were still
far below those of the Senate,
When the tariff bill Is finally COM
pleted, 1t will be found that the con-
ference committee, aided by the House
leaders, who in turn take their cue as q
rule from the administration, will have
written the new tariff bill. There is no
disposition in either House to make q
night on any schedule. Members feel
that they have made q record when the
various schedules were debated and that
they can point to the work of the con-
ference committee in the final stages
as something which could not be frus-
trated without imperiling the passage OF
the entire measure.
Senators and Representatives are anx-
iouS to get back home, as practically
all of them will participate in some way
in the Autumn campaign. With the
tariff bill out of the way 1t would be
difficult to maintain a quorum. and the
prospects now are that Congress will
adjourn about the middle of June.
