ton Considered

Washington, Dec. 7.-Although the

means committee about the admins
tration'S opposition to the Democratic
sponsored tariff bill.
Referring to the provision which
would make the tariff commission re-
port to congress rather than to the

sees no occasion for it. Its intent is
to deprive the president Of authority
he now possesses"
The senate finance committee con-
tinued its investigation Of foreign
loans and Rep. Knutson.. Minnesota
Republican, offered house resolution
to investigate the connections Of
banks, trust companies and corpora
lions In connection with the sale OF
stock.
Before the senate group, James G.
Corliss, specialist on Latin-American
finance in the commerce department,
said many private loans were floated
in. this country despite adverse infor-
nation by his department and that
more than $500, 900 900 worth Of La
tin-American bonds floated in this
country since the war are in default.
Wednesday the committee heard
that the department had reluctantly
given its consent to $23, 1000, 900 loan
to Bolivia because Of troubled diplo-
matte relations with Latin-America.
In addition to this the state depart
ment rushed forward to deny re-
sponsibility for losses incurred in
subscriptions to foreign loans Of
which it had been informed In the last
10 years.

final vote on the reconstruction cor
poration bill by Thursday or Friday.

ing committee Is studying the mea-
sure continuously but will not have
It ready for action until next week.
Then the house will give It right Of
way.
: Before the senate naval committee,
Secretary Adams was more cautious
than last week when he told z house
group he favored more ships. He said
It is extremely doubtful" II the navy
department will ask appropriations for
more ships this year and that he could
not officially endorse the plan be-
cause President Hoover and the bud
get bureau had not passed On the
idea.
The bill under construction would
merely authorize construction ana ap-
propriations to pay for It would have
to be made later.

Suspicion that Oliver Thompson, husband of Mrs. Jerry Thompson, attacked last Monday night, might have returned to town unnoticed and have been connected with the assault was exploded today when telegram was received from him in Seattle, by United States Mar shal Albert White.
 While officially Thompson was never considered in the picture, in unofficial quarters there was some discussion of the probability that he had come back to town and had attacked his wife with whom it was known he had had trouble prior to his departure sev- eral weeks ago.
 The man, wiring the Marshal collect, offered to return here if money was available to pay for his transportation There isn't, it was said.
 No new developments had been reported in the case today. Offic- ials were still working hard to uncover some trace of the car driven by the two men Mrs. Thomp- son claims to have assailed her and attempted to put her "on the spot"
