Roosevelt Asks Decrease
In Present Tariff Laws

WASHINGTON, March 26.-W.D
- President Roosevelt today
recommended that present tariff
walls be reduced so per cent as a
mans of promoting lasting peace
and full postwar employment
through gre ter international
trade.
In a special message to Congress
urging extension of the reciprocal
trade agreements program, he said
''trade is fundamental to the
prosperity of nations, as it is to
individuals. He endorsed pending
legislation by Chairman Robert L.
Doughton, (O.-N.C), of the House
Ways and Means Committee. He
said it would accomplish the de-
sired objective and ""mean more
exports and more imports" for this
country"
The Doughton measure would
extend the life of the Trade Agree
ments Act beyond its present
June expiration date and cut
tariffs so per cent below the
rates that prevailed last Januar---
l.
The present act, which became
law in 1884, permits tariff reduc-
tons so per cent below the rates
fixed in the 1890 Hawley-Smoot
Tariff Act. In some cases, the
additional slash proposed by Mr..
Roosevelt would mean a maximum

rs per cent reduction from the
1880 rates.
Pointing out that the United
States has reciprocal trade agree
nents with % countries, he said
with reference to those countries
that much of our original au-
thority under the act has been
used up"
He said I'VE are left in this
situation:
"Great Britain and Canada, our
largest peace-time customers, still
maintain certain high barriers
against our exports, just as we still
have high barriers against theirs.
Under the act as it now stands we
do not have enough to offer these
countries to serve as a basis for
the further concessions we want
from them. The same situation
confronts us, although in lesser
degree, in the case of the other
countries with whome we have al
ready made agreement; these in
GUM, Turkey, Sweden, Switzerland
clude France, the Netherlands, Bel
and most of the American re-
pubHcs."
He therefore urged that tariff
cuts so per cent below present
levels be authorized.
He suggested non-partisan ap-
proach to the Doughton bill and

Case Against G. c. Looney
In Improper Form,
Group Declares

The City Civil Service Commits
sion last night dismissed charges
against Officer C. c. Looney. who
was accused of cursing a white
waitress and assaulting a Negro
Army veteran while intoxicated on
the night of February %, when it
developed that the charges brought
before the commission had not
been presented in the form OF
written complaints.
Referring to the legislative act
creating the Civil Service Com
mission of the City of Whining
ton. Alton Lennon and w. K.
Rhodes, Jr., attorneys represent
ing Looney, pointed out that the
law provided that no matter
should come before the commits
sion unless written statements
were filed either by the persons
accusing the officer or by the Of
ficer himself.
It was the contention of the at
torneys representing Looney that
the affidavits gathered in the case
against the officer could not be
considered complaints.
Following the explaining of the
Legislative act by Lennon, No--
wood S. Westbrook, chairman of
the commission, called for addi-
tional discussion on the matter, and
asked if there was anyone pres
ent interested enough to represent
the City.
