Father Higgins Criticizes
Endorsement of HuII's
Reciprocal Pacts.

After a furry Of warfare between
its own members at last nights meet
ings the Catholic Association for
International Peace resumed sessions
this morning at the National Cath
olic School of Social Service, 2400
Nineteenth street NV. Three speak
ers were scheduled to continue the
general discussions under the head
ing of "A Constructive World Pro-
gram Of Economic Justice the topic
which last night inspired the Rev
Patrick Higgins. professor of history
at Holy Cross College, to attack the
convention authorities who had in
dorsed Secretary of State Hull's re-
ciprocal trade treaties.
Almost entirely in accord through
the day and evening were other
speakers on the program analyzing
the problems of sectionalism. nation
alism and other threats to world
peace. While they sang one har-
monious song of praise for the Roose-
welt administration tariff policy and
said that freer trade between ma
tlons would be sure to equaliZe the
breach between the "haves" and the
have nots" in world economics Faith
er Higgins protested against the Hull
theories, classified Mr.. Hull men,
ber Of the ''liberalistic" school ana
expressed strong disapproval of the
earlier speakers ideas.
Refers to New England Wages.
Rising to defend the general senti-
ment of his conferees at the current
meeting, the Rev. R. A. MCGOWAN Of
the National Catholic Welfare Confer
ence said that some of the American
industrial evils which Father Higgins
attributed to lowering of tax barriers
against foreign goods actually had
been created by competition from
within the United States. He referred
specifically to the New England textile
industry, which, Father Higgins said,
had lowered its wage standards to a
disgraceful level in order to meet for
eign competition. Father MCGOWAN
asserted that the real cause of this
drop In wages had been the competi-
ton offered BY poorly paid workers in

BALTIMORE, April l9.-Receipts
OF Maryland tobacco here during the
last week totaled 25l hogsheads, but
only one hogshead was reported sold.
Only a few of the hogsheads received
were inspected and offered for sale.
1t is still too early to quote definite
prices, because of the few sales made
so far this season. Present stock of
the Maryland product now in ware
houses totals $3.50 hogsheads.
Maryland farmers are preparing for
a larger crop this year than last.
This is due to favorable weather and
the early spring. Seed beds have

With no financial aid but with

Armstrong has brought about
amazing changes in the 36-acre
hill farm in Tishomingo county.
The land no longer is gully
washed and a GO-year-old log cab

that is productive, terraced to
conserve rainfall, and planted to
cover crops to prevent erosion ana
insure continued fertility.
