EXECUTIVE TARIFF
POWER ADVOCATED

Hears Discussion of
Roosevelt'S Plan. -

International regulation Of tariffs

by President Roosevelt and Secretary
Of State Hull in requests for passage
of enabling legislation. was advocated
today by Prof. Charles E. Martin Of
the University of Washington, speak
ing before the twenty-eighth meeting
of the American Society of Interna-
tional Law at the Willard Hotel.
His address was followed by a dis
cussion of tariff regulation led by
Francis Deak of Columbia Law
School, New York City.
This afternoon the society was to
hear Clement L. Bouve, member Of
the District Bar, present a paper on
the legal status of aliens under Soviet
treaties.
Thompson TO Speak.
At tonight's session Huston Thomp-
son, former chairman Of the Federal
Trade Commission, will discuss the
securities law of 1888, and Martin T.
Manton, United States Circuit Judge,
will discuss reorganization and re-
habilitation of governmental loans.
George Nebolsine and Edgar Turling-
ton will lead the discussion.
Prof. Martin. explained that passage
of the tariff legislation by Congress
would carry with it certain implica-
tions, chief among which are rejection
of the policy of economic nationalism,
recognition of the fact that If we sell
abroad we must buy abroad, elimina-
ton of the fallacy that protectionism
means increased domestic trade, con-
tinuation of the policy of uncondi-
tional most treatment,
integration of foreign trade with re-
covery, and avoidance of the pitfalls
of Senate discussion and House
jealousy.

American Conference at Montevideo.
DIR. Rowe said that whereas at
previous conferences open and covert
criticism Of the foreign policy of the
United States was the rule, at the
Montevideo meeting the spirit Of
criticism was almost absent. This he
attributed to the greater willingness
of the United States to refrain from
armed Intervention in Latin America,

declaration that the policy of this
