TARIFF OPPOSITION
Of HOOVER VOICED
Mills Hits Democrats Plans
for Revision Before
House Committee.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Undersecretary of the Treasury Mills
told the House Ways and Means Com
mittee today the administration is
strongly opposed to the Democratic
tariff bill
Responding to the invitation of Chair
man Collier Mills appeared at hearings
on the tariff as representative of the
Treasury, State and Commerce Depart
mentS. At the outset of his remarks,
when the hearings were resumed, he
said:
The Treasury does not approve of
this measure and sees no occasion for
it. It's intent is to deprive the PreSi-
dent of authority he now possesses.
Backs Flexible Provision.
Mills referred to that provision which
would take away the Presidents au-
thority under the present flexible tariff
provision. The bill would authorize
the Tariff Commission to report to Con-
gresS on changes in duties instead of
to the President.
The effect of this" he said, would
be to remove the flexible provision in
tariff rates"
He added Congress would hardly have
| time to consider each recommendation
and that if it did prolonged debate
would enSue in both Houses because OF
| efforts that would be made to amend
the entire act
Mills aSsailed the proposal for con-
sumer'S counsel to be connected with
the Tariff Commission. He said it
would result only in added expense, and
,.oted that information was gathered by
the commission already in the interest
| of the consumers.
Hits Economic Conference.
The Democratic proposal for a per-
manent international economic confer
, ence to bring about better trade re-
lations between the countries also was
attacked by the Undersecretary. He
asserted it confiicted with the first part
of the bill which, he said, took away
power from the President, while the lat
ter part gives him almost unlimited
power" to bring about a lowering Of
tariff walls.
He contended permanent organl2a-
ton is unnecessary because one already
exists under the League of Nations.
Mills declared the bill indicates the
American tariff rates are too high, and
said If this be So then this body and
not an international conference should
lower them"

REPORTED ACCORD
ON DEBTS DENIED
Programs of Britain, France
and Germany Declared
Still u settled.
Continued From First PageD


Foreign Minister Aristide BRAND
threatened to provoke the French gov
ernment crisis, during which France
will be unable to agree on anything
whatever What is true is that an
agreement of a bankers committee
with the Germans to prolong the stand
still arrangement on short t-term ad-
vanceS to Germany for one year has
caused the French government to
abandon it's efforts to obtain a post
ponemel< of the Lausanne conference.
Barring unforeseen delays due to the
French crisis 1t is now expected that
this conference will meet some time
between January 20 and 25, with the
French, British and German premiers
all in attendance. AS far as it can be
learned here the Germans still main
tain that the Young plan must be
scrapped and that Germany can hence
forth pay no reparations whatever.
Neither France nor Great Britain
entirely accepts this view, although it
has some partisans in London banking
circles. 1t is probable that France and
Great Britain will make every effort
to reach a common policy prior to the
opening of the conference, first through
q meeting of treasury experts and then
through a personal talk between French
Premier Pierre Laval and Mr.. Mac
Donald although a French cabinet
crisis may upset this plan also.
No Change on Issue.
Meanwhile on the main Franco-Brit-
tsh issue there is still no change. The
British still want a moratorium of four
or five years for Germany, and France
still thinks one or two years are suf-
ficient. The assumption in press re-
ports that a compromise on the basis
OF three years would be reached ap-
pears to be premature.
The French consider the decision of
the Bankers Committee in Berlin not
to turn short-term into long-term
credits as the Germans wished, but
merely to extend them by one year,
greatly strengthens the French view
that a reparations moratorium should
also be limited to one year from the
date of the expiration of the Hoover
moratorium.
On the other hand, it should be said
that some skilled observers, in view Of
the new conciliatory attitude toward
France Of the British foreign office,
consider Franco British reparations
agreement within the next couple of
weeks as probable

NEW YORK, April 8.-"The
L things you can do with a
tailored suit!" You're hearing lot
of such remarks these days about
this years crop of clean-cut, ready
for-action suits. And hundreds of
women are o. king that same
idea.
Tailored suit" by the way, can
mean a great many things this
year. Not just the old idea of a
perfectly plain suit with narrow,
notched lapels, single or double
breasted. This season you can fol-
low the general tailored pattern,
but be yourself in dozen different
ways.
Your jacket, for instance, will be
broad-Shouldered, fitted at the waist
and hip length. But its revers may
be moderately wide, or very wide.
Or, maybe you'll decide against
revers altogether and have collar
less jacket with scarf at the neck.
Then buttons give you great lee
way. You can have four, six or
eight :. strung in row down
one side, or marching double
breasted up the front. And we've
even seen suits with triple row
of buttons!
If you want to be military some
where in your wardrobe, a soldierly
suits just about the best thing you
could hit on. With epaulets, metal
buttons, and uniform pockets set
foursquare on the front.
We're seeing suits with dark
skirts and lighter jackets. Very
slick on slim figures of average or
above average height. And an extra
skirt that matches the jacket
makes another new costume.
It's notions such as that-chang-
ing a skirt . wearing blouses Of
different types using different
colored accessories which make
a suit count for three or four out
fits.
