Passed by Senate, Measure
viii Be Considered
by Committee.
DEBENTURE WAR LOOMS
Ultimate Fate May Depend
on Democrats and
Farm Leaders.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, March 25. -
Emerging, tattered and torn, from a
seven months hectic journey through
the senate, the s5sO,OOoO 900 nameless
tariff bill embarked today on an
even more tortuous path toward
fnal enactment.
1t was returned TO the house for
cUrSory consideration of the amend
ments which revised the measure so
radically from the version sent to
the senate last May.
The Democrats, behind Repre-
sentative John Garner of Texas, mi
nority leader, served notice they
would demand the senate amend
ments be given serious consideration.
but there is little or no likelihood
their demands will be granted.
The Republicans. who control the
house with sn indominable major
fty. are determined to shift further
negotiations into a conference of
committees representing each house
Voting Not Expected
Therefore they intend TO permit
only vote on motion to send the
measure as a whole to conference,
without voting on the debenture
farm relief plan, repeal of the f1ex-
ible provision, or the sugar. lumber,
cement and other duties individ-
ually.
This means the next remolding
of the bill will be in the hands of
those who favor high rates and who
are against the, debenture. for the
present.
The conference committee to rep
resent the senate probably will be
appointed by Vice-President Curtis
today. It will be composed of Re-
publican Senators Smoot, Utah:
Watson, Indiana, and Shortridge,
California, and Democratic Senators
Simmons, North Carolina, and Har-
riSon. Mississippi. Smoot, Watson
and Shortridge generally are re-
garded as the highest protectionists
in the senate.
A committee dominated by men
OF similar tendencies will be ap-
pointed under Representative Haw-
ley rep, Ore) in the house.
Democrats in Minority
The Democrats will be in help
less minority and the mid western
Republicans will not even be rep
resented on the house conference
: COMMITTEE.
From this committee, the bill is
expected to be brought forth in a
few weeks, minus the debenture,
with a compromise on the flexible
feature which will satisfy the
Democrats, and with an arithmetical
adjustm mt of the rate differences
between the house and senate bills
The fight then will start all over
again in the senate with the ulti-
mate fate of the measure somewhat
doubtful, and resting on its ability
to curry Democratic support.
Seven Democ ITS voted for the
bill when the senate passed it late
Monday, SO to 81. The fact that
the bill contained the debenture
won support from outstanding farm
bloc leaders, and they will decline
to support 1t -7hen the debenture
is dropped. as they sll believe 1t
will be.
Warning Is Sounded
Notice that the vote was not final
was given in the closing debate by
Borah and McNiaSter.
"It the debenture Is taken out
predict the fight has Just begun"
said Borah.
The vote follows:

CHARLES CRAWFORD GORsT,
March rs.

A nature-study program Of an un-
usual type will bring to q close the
third season of the Community 1nSti-
tute at Central High School Wednes-
day, March 20, at Sis pm.
Charles Crawford Gorst, known as
the bird man." has developed and will
present a program on THE Musical
Genius of Birds" which is said to be
practically unique In the field Of nature
study.
Mr.. Gorst's ability to initiate birds
has had amazing results In the field
trips on which his talk Is based. In
the course of these trips he noted and
successfully initiated a musical range
Of 20 tones. From these notes he has
discovered and reproduced 800 distinct
songs of more than 200 birds. So per-
feet are the limitations of the calls that
the bird man" has observed almost in
credible events In the lives of bird
families. These experiences play a
large part in the program. which is
further illustrated by a group of large
pictures in color, SO arranged and light
ed that they may be studied in the
course Of the lecture.
A special matinee for school children
has been arranged at Mckinley High
School in the afternoon preceding the
evening lecture.
The sale of tickets for the evening
wiz begin Friday, March 81, at T. Ar
thur Smiths, the New Willard news
stand, A. A. A. headquarters and Frank
I'm Administration Building.

grounds, the operation Of which Is pro-
vided for this Summer in an item of
$50, 900 in the bill, would be handicap
ped or even completely wrecked, de-
pending upon the action taken in Con-
gress.
The $4,000 figure represents an in
crease of $4,000 over that provided last
year, so that If the continuing resolu-
ton makes available figures carried in
the current appropriation, the schools
and school Fairgrounds would be limited
in their activities to that extent. How
ever, the procedure of providing one
twelfth OF an annual appropriation in
q continuing resolution is being dis
cussed in school circles and, If this
procedure is followed for the vacation
schools, they would be given only
$4,000 to run for the six weeks to two
months period. This method would re-
suit in the virtual abandonment of their
program.
If the continuing resolution would
make available the same funds this
year which we're carried in the current
appropriation for teachers and libra
rianS, salary increases and salary ad-
justments in accordance with existing
law and totaling S206,240 would be lost
and the tncumbentS deprived Of their
increases.
Serious Embarrassment FOreseen.
While specific data are not forthcom-
ing in official school circles, 1t Is known
definitely that considerable serious en-
baraSsment to the local public school
system officers lies In their efforts to
engage the eight professors for the two
teachers colleges. Acting on the knowl-
edge that these salary items were not
disputed by Congress and assuming,
therefore, that they would be carried
in the final appropriation bill, the
school authorities have undertaken
tentatively to appoint incumbents to
these positions. The professors would
begin their duties here with the open
ing Of school in September and they
would be obliged to notify the institu-
tons where they are employed at pres
ent Of their intentions to come here.
Such notification should be made early,
and 1t Is possible that designations al
ready have been rendered by prospective
professors in the colleges here whose
appointments have been virtually de-
cided upon.

'ELL|OTT'S MUSEUM
BILL PASSES HOUSE
Sc, 500, 900 Enlargement
Measure Already Approved
by Senate.

The House today passed the Elliott
bill, duplicate of which has already
passed the Senate. authorizing an ex-
penditure Of $6,600,000 to double the
size of the present Museum of Natural
History in the Mall facing Tenth street.
Representative McClintic of Okla
homa, a Democrat, objected, saying that
instead of appropriating a special sum
the money for the new building should
be taken from the fund authorized for
the Federal building program in the
District. He suggested that part of the
$l0,000,000 allocated for a new Post
once Department building should be
taken, saying that the proposed new
Post ONCE Building is unnecessary, that
he objected to tearing down the pres
ent structure on the south side Of Penn
sylvania avenue between Eleventh and
Twelfth streets, which he considered
one of the handsomeSt and best con-
structed in the United States.
He compared 1t with the new Internal
Revenue Building directly in the rear,
which he described as a monstrosity,
and said 1t had roof like a chicken
house. IF that is art, then certainly
know nothing about art" concluded
Representative McClintic.
Representative La Guardia, Repub-
lican, of New York read letter from
Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes,
chancellor of the Smithsonian Institu-
ton, emphasizing the great need OF the
proposed extension. Mr.. Hughes said
the objects contained in the National
Museum actually cost $120,000.000 and
could not be replaced for four times
that amount.
Representative Greenwood, Repub-
lican of Indiana, Endorsed the bill, say
ing the museum is a treasure house of
objects Of national history of the United
States, and that it is an educational
institution for hundreds of thousands
of visitors
Mr.. McClintic asked that the bill be
passed over without prejudice, but It
was necessary for him to get two addi-
tional DIRECTORS, and the only other one
who objected was Representative STAFF
ford, Republican, of Wisconsin, so that
the bill was passed after Chairman Ell
lott Of the committee on public build
ings and grounds had substituted the
Senate bill for the House bill
A resolution to reimburse Navy Yard
workers for loss of pay on last Inagura-
ton day was objected to by Representa-
tive Blanton, Democrat, of Texas, who
said this would establish a bad prece-
dent by making Inauguration day a
legal holiday in the District.

JOHNSON TO SPEAK
OVER RADIO FORUM
Californian Is Expected to
Answer StimSon on
Treaty Wednesday.

Senator Hiram johnson OF California,
who has been leading the fight in the
Senate foreign relations committee
against ratification Of the London naval
treaty, is to speak in the National Radio
Forum, through WMAL, Wednesday at
$50 pm
The forum is arranged by The Star
and sponsored by the Columbia Broad
casting System. It is being presented
Wednesday night instead of Thursday
because Of the broadcasting of the re-
ception of Admiral Richard e. Byrd.
Senator johnson is expected to reply
in his radio speech to the arguments
advanced by Secretary Of State Slim
son, who strongly advocated the rati-
f1cation of the navel treaty in the
National Radio Forum last week.
Senator johnson has maintained that
the naval treaty does not give the
United States square deal because it
denies the American Navy the right to
build as many 8-inch cruisers as 1t
deems necessary.
The naval treaty is still before the
foreign relations committee and may
be reported to the Senate before the
latter part of this week. Senator john
son and other opponents of the treaty
are urging that consideration of the
treaty in the Senate be postponed until
next Fall. President Hoover Is insisting
upon early action by the Senate on the
treaty. 1t is expected that the foreign
relations committee will report the treaty
favorably when it acts on the pact
The California Senator is widely
known as a forceful orator. He was
Theodore Roosevelt'S running mate dur
ing the Bull Moose movement in 1912.

BOSTON, June Is (P).-Capt. STAN
ley v. Parker of the Coast Guard cut
ter Tampa testified at the Federal in
vestigation into the Fairfax Pinthis dis
aster today that the Tampa heard no
s o S from the Fairfax the night of
the collision, although the radio log
showed messages to Boston from the
Fairfax were sent for 20 minutes after
the crash and subsequent fire.
The Tampa, Parker said, was an
chored % miles away in a heavy fog
when the Fairfax rammed and sank
the Pinthls with the loss Of Al lives of
North Scituate last Tuesday night.
The Tampas radio log showed, the
captain said, that messages from the
FAIRFAX TO Boston points started at 7:o4
and continued at intervals until 7:24,
His testimony apparently contradicted
that Of the Fairfax radio operators. who
said general 8 o S was tapped out
Immediately after the collision and
continued for some minutes, but that
fusion Of the radio antenna by fire APP
parently prevented the call from ever
reaching the air. According to the
Tampa's log, however, messages to
Boston went out without difficulty for
at least 20 minutes after the collision.
Capt. Parker said that at no time
during the evening did he know the
Fairfax was In danger. The Tampa
operator, SuSpecting something wrong,
reached the reply Thanks" all
"Okeh," TO his query offering aid and
Parker said the operator considered
that reply so emphatic that he did not
inform his commander as ne would
nave done had he had good reason to
believe there was trouble.
