HARDING GRANTED
TARIFF POWER AT
Washington, Aug. 21. (WASHING
TON Bt"REAU OP THE JOURNAL,)
Notable In the history of the McCum
ber tariff bill, and perhaps historic
for all time in tariff making:, was the
fight over adoption of the provision
granting the president power, after
hearings by the tariff commission, to
raise or lower rates 50 per cent above
or below those fixed In the bill.
The principal reason for that is the
rapidly fluctuating rates of exchange
orjd the sudden rise or fall of costs of
production growing out of the world
conflict. At the ejime time it gives for
..the first time ari opportunity to try
what - many advocates - of a scientic
tsriff believe should, be tried, the pro
vision for flexibility, in rates when
conditions change. It will be on trial
for two years, and if it works well,
it; can be continued by the congress
then in being.
ASKS FOE POWER
President Harding went to the length
of writing a letter to Senator McCum
ber to ask for this power. Without
that letter it would have been beaten.
Even then it would have been beaten
except for several liberalizing changes
made on the floor of the senate. The
conflict split the agricultural tariff
bloc, the most of which went to the
president's support after the modifica
tions were made. McXary and Stan
field of Oregon and Gooding of Idaho
remained irreconcilable to the end.
the only Republicans who refuged to
follow the president's request in any
form.
Senator Stanfield explained the po
sition of the irreconcilable group. He
said they do not want to grant author
ity outside of congress to change rates,
especially as they feel that in the
present bill the agricultural interests
have received better treatment than
e-er before. They fear that changes
detrimental to the farmers of the
West may be made.
Ll-UITS OPERATION
"Great pressure will be brought to
bear upon the president, we may be
sure," said Mr. Stanfield. "He will act
for what he thinks is the best, but I
do not believe congress should put this
task on the president. I do not believe
congress has the constitutional power
to delegate such power to the president.
In that I agree 'with Senator Under
wood and the Democratic leaders who
say that this is beyond the power of
congress;"
:The Bursum amendment limits the
operation of the presidential power to
Jaly 1. 1924. The Reed amendment re
quires open public hearings, with no
tice to parties interested. A committee
amendment presented to meet the
viiews of Senator Lenroot makes dif
ference in cost of production the rule
upon which presidential findings shall
bo made, instead of "changes in com
petitive conditions." Without these
amendments, it is said, the entire pro
posal would have been defeated.
OFFERS .AMENDMENT
Senator Gooding tried in vain to have
cost transportation taken into consid
eration. He cited manganese as an ex
ample of a Western product that can
iiot be. developed because it cannot
reach the Eastrn markets unless freight
rates are taken into consideration in
equalizing the costs between the home
and the foreign producer. On this line
he made no progress. McCumber and
Lenroot asserted that It was impossi
ble to take account of the freight rates,
nor would they admit that this would
always work to the disadvantage of
the American producer.
Senator Frelinghuysen offered an
advanced amendment in the direction
of scientific tariff making, calling upon
the tariff commission for semi-annual
reports to congress with data concern
ing costs of production and conversion,
prices and conditions, and also to state
what it considers proper rates to equal
ize differences at home and abroad.
HOW THEY VOTED
While senators often talk about the
desirability of exact - information and
expert advice as a help toward remov
ing the tariff from political swirls,
only 18 votes were found on this very
definite proposal. They were :
Democrats Ashurst, Hitchcock, Ken
drick 3.
Republicans Capper, Edge, Freling
huysen, Hale, Jones of Washington,
Lenroot, Moses, New, Norback, Pepper,
Kawson, Sterling. Sutherland, Town
send, Warren 15.
Later, by a vote of 26 to 27, the sen
ate rejected an amendment by Jones of
New Mexico, Democrat, which embod
ied the same principle but was more
comprehensive in directing investiga
tion of foreign commerce. Moses, New,
Pepper, Rawson, iSterling and Suther
land switched over after having sup
ported the Frelinghuysen amendment,
perhaps because It was offered by a
Democrat, and Lenroot was not record
ed. Those who came to support of
the Jones amendment .who failed to
vote for the Frelinghuysen proposal
were Broussard. Dial, Fletcher, Gerry,
Heflin, Jones of New Mexico, McKel
lar. Overman, Ransdell, Reed. Shep
pard. Smith. Stanley and Walsh of
Montana, Democrats',, and Bursum, JIc
Nary and Stanfield, Republicans.
LEGISLATIVE STATUS
IS ALL MUDDLED UP
(Continued From Pas. Ok)
measure must be modified consider
ably to provide a 'justification for a
change of the presidential mind. The
chances are Mr. Harding will veto the
bill and that it will be promptly made
a law over his veto, as two-third are
'available in both houses.
In the face of the known disapproval
by President Harding of the bonus
measure, and the repeated statements
of treasury officials that the bill would
add something like $4,000,000,000 to the
public debt, congress is going ahead.
Tb the, average observer this must
seem a curious state of affairs, but
the truth is the members of congress
do not share the pessimism of the. of
ficials in the executive branch of the
bill are stacking their judgment .of the
future against that of the secretary of
the treasury and the president, and are
tenaciously clinging tohelr own opin
ion. No amount of argument from ex
ecutive or advisers can budge con
gress. Its mind is set and the votes
ari pledged. The rest is purely per
functory. The only chance of defeat
ing the measure is after a presidential
veto, but even this will t .discounted
the.-moment the votes are counted in
the senate, for it will show conclusively
how many votes there are short of or
tn excess of the required two-third.
FEAR SOLDIER TOTE
Politically speaking' the adjusted
compensation measure is a doubtful
government. J They expect the coun
try somehow to carry the burden, and
they insist, especially in their private
talks on the subject, that the refund
ing operations of the government are
being carried' on much more smoothly
than the publio knows.' and that toe
financial capacity of the nation to ab
sorb the new debt is greater than is
commonly ' supposed. It is true .that
the government has managed since the
armistice to reduce the public debt by
mora than three billions of dollars, so
that an increase of four billion win
leave, the country mora or leas in the
same position as tt was when the war
ended. '. - ; - - fsV. -SAT
JfXtiOK CAH ABSORB t?.v
Members of congress are of the
opinion that the country can absorb
the new indebtedness and should take
a chance for the benefit of the soldier
element.-' In other' words, those in the
senate and house who favor the bonus
quantity. Both Democrats and Repub
licans are afraid to antagonize the sol
dier vote and yft they know that the
bill will just about kill all hope of a
reduction of taxes ill the next five or
six years, as the qums needed for the
bill are progressively Increased until
1926, when the estimated expense will
be $350,000,000. Besides this the gov
ernment faces a deficit In the coming
year of nearly 1400,000,000. The soldier
element feels that economies can. be
best made in other directions, however,
and that the soldier should get his
compensation which the American Le
gion spokesmen says has been too long
delayed anyhow.
REPUBLICANS TO SUFFER
The Republicans will suffer most
from their act. They will no doubt
learn the gratitude of the soldiers, but
when election time rolls around every
two years the fact that taxes are high
will be an increasing cause of discon
tent. The Democrats on the other harfd
have been afraid the Republicans
might dodge the issue of adjusted com
pensation for the war veterans and
leave the problem to be handled by a
Democratic congress. That's why the
Democrats have been so active in sen
ate and house in torcing the measure
through. The soldier bonus bill could
not override a presidential veto without
substantial aid from the Democrats.
But since the Democrats are not in
power .they will not be hurt by such
dissatisfaction as may arise over the
high cost of government' or the failure
of the Republicans to reduce taxes.
DEMOCRATS TO PROFIT
The Democrats will profit politically
by what the Republicans are doing.
Many Republicans concede this, but see
no way of curing the situation, for the
immediate danger which confronts
them is the soldier vote which they feel
should not be antagonized; as this is
within a few weeks of congressional
elections. They prefer to take their
chances on other forms of discontent
later on and meet each political prob
lem when it becomes acute.

Sightseeing Plane
With Thrqe Aboard
Missing 24 Hours
Keyport. N. J.. Aug. 21. (U. P.)
A fleet of seaplanes roared away from
the hangars of the Aero Marine Air
ways, Inc., today, and, sweeping low
over the surface of the Atlantic and
Lower New York bay, began searching
for a sightseeing plane carrying one
passenger and two mechanicians,
missing for 24 hours.
It is feared that if the plane "Baa been
forced to descend en the water, those
aboard will be found dead even if the
machine itself is iocated, as high seas
have prevailed all during the period
the craft has been missing.
The identity of the passenger had
not been learned this morning. A
wealthy man, it is understood, char
tered the seaplane for a trip to Fire
Island, off New York, with Pilot Miller
and Mechanician Thompson, he set
sail from the company's station at 7
a. m., Sunday.
The last seen of the plane was when
it passed over the battery, the lower
end of Manhattan island, at a high rate
of speed.

BOY KIDNAPED 10
YEARS AGO NOW
B TO FORTUNE
By raited Nsws) i
Chicago, Aug. 21. Robert William
Ross, 10. was whirling East Sunday
under the jealous, guard of representa
tives of wealthy relatives, to take his
place as the heir to millions.
Robert rode in a compartment . and
can have his meals served in state if
he wishes, which' is vastly different
from being a foundling at. St. Vincents
orphanage here, or, for that matter,
from being for nine years the kidnaped
foster child of a San Francisco police
captain and his wife.
The boy was abandoned on the door
step of the Guardian Angel's home at
Joliet just 10 years ago and sent,
when two weeks old, to St. Vincents
here. Behind hfe abandonment is a
romantic story of the tragic ending, of
the . love story of an Eastern heiress,
who, before her death told her relatives
of the birth of a son and a nine-year
effort to find him. ,
The details of this story are locked
in the hearts of the sisters at St. Vin
cents and the secret is safe, but the
finding of the boy in San Francisco,
his return to the orphanage here, the
desperate court fight by the illegal
foster parents, and - the youngster's
triumphant journey are court record.
After four ' days of heated argument
by prominent allies before Judge Tim
othy Hurley here, the court ruled that
the boy had been illegally taken from
the state by Mrs. Ethel Hand, while
wealthy relatives were hunting desper
ately for the baby nine years ago.
The baby was given to Mrs. Hand
on probation, St. Vincent's investigators
testified, introducing records. She took
it to San Francisco and left it with
her mother, Mrs. Permelia Ross, wife
of Captain William Ross of the San
Francisco police force, .who adopted the
child in California.
WOMAN IS FOUND
The frantic Eastern relatives, pledg
ing St. Vincents kindly sisters to se
crecy, started an unremitting search
for the boy. Mrs. Hand had divorced
her husband and had left Chicago.
For nine years the search continued
and finally Mrs. Hand returned, and
on publication of the announcement of
her re-marriage, she was found.
Mrs. Gertrude Healy, investigator
for the orphanage, hurried to San
Francisco and filed habeas corpus
proceedings against Mrs. Ross, who fi
nally surrendered the boy. But, being
devoted to the little chap, she almost
immediately started proceedings for
the return of Robert. J udge Hurley
upheld the contention of the orphanage
mat tne Doy naa been kidnaped when
taken from the state and had been il
legally adopted by Mrs. Ross in San
Francisco.
SECRET IS KEPT
Attorneys for Mrs. Ross arerued
holty against the return of the ,bey to
tne orpnanage. They could see no rea-
n why -the orphanage insisted on
bringing the handsome little fellow
back to ah institution when he had a
good home. St. Vincents said nothing.
But Sunday the real secret came out.
They were not trying to put the boy
back in the orphanage. They were
working for unknown relatives, "one
of the wealthiest families in the East."
ana late in the day he rolled away to
his new home, where, acocrdinar to
Mrs. Gertrude Healy, the orphanage's
investigator, "he will have everything
any child could desire."
' I can't tell the names of the rela
tives," Mrs. Healy told the United
News. "I can't tell the name of the
city in which he will live, except that
his new home is near Boston and on a
wonderful estate."

PEACE IS
Washington, Aug. 21. (U. P.) This
country's principal concern is peace
and the securities of peace. President
Harding declared today in an address
to 1000 citizen soldiers he reviewed on
the broad ellipse back of the White
House.
"There is no thought of armed war
fare and no design to carry on an
armed campaign in any direction,"
Harding said, explaining the effort of
the government to induce young men
of the country to enter soldier train
ing camps. t - .
"You are citizens of a republic de
voted only to freedonV the president
said, with the citizen soldiers sur
rounding him on. all sides.
PRAISE FOR COXGHES8
Harding praised the policy of con
gress in reducing the regular army and
providing for the training of citizens
during the summer vacation periods.
"It is a fine thing for the young man
hood of Ameiica to turn from the va
cation season and devote themselves
to military training," he said.
"You have benefited by the physical
training. You have benefited by learn
ing better discipline. You have bene
fited, as all Americans might benefit,
by learning a little more Impressively
the obligations of a citizen to . his
country.
"It is rather an Interesting thing
that the His of the nervous and mental
being can be cured by development of
the physical being."
URGES MORE TRAIXIJfG
After pointing out that last year
there were 11,000 men in the citizen
training camps and that this year the
number was increased to 28.006,. the
president said :
"If I could have my wish this num
ber would increase until more than
100.000 were annually studying and
preparing for armed service ; not that
we .ever expect them to be called up
on for' such service but solely for
additional defense and the preserva
tion of the government under which
we ail live.
"There is new assurance, there Is
new confidence, , there is new belief
in the perpetuity of this American re
public, when one can stand, as I have
stood this morning, and notice such a
company of ready volunteer defenders
as you have shown us in this review.
"We are concerned only with pease
and the security of peace, and I like
to think this great republic, reducing
its regular army in accordance with
its ideals, can have the assurance that
comes to it with such a spectacle as
this."

(By tTnrversal Service)
London, Aug. 21. The future ofLIhl
huge Northcliffe organisation, now that
its chief Is gone. Is the subject of ab
sorbing interest In London, the publl.
cation of his will being a matter of Im
portance not only, to thousands of men B
who worked for him, but also to tha i
general public. ' .
rntversal Service Is informed from
confidential sources that the contents
of the will are still unknown outside I
the publisher's immediate family circle.
It Is generally believed that the family
will ultimately dispose of Lord Korth
cllffe's interest In the London Times.
That he has laid no injunctions upon
the editors is apparently disclosed by a
Times editorial today which says:
' "Lesser men than he hav-e left elab
orate political testements in the fond
hope that future generations mighl
find therein wisdom for their guidance.
"Lord Northcliffe's bequest Is th
example he, set In seeking steadfastly
his country's welfare and pursuing
with fearless independence the ends
he sought rightly for if."
The Dally Mail, the Evenlne News
and the Weekly Dispatch are now be- 1
ing controlled by a directorate of the J
Associated Newspapers corporation, f
Regarding the Amalgamated Press, J
publishing 80 weekly and monthly per-
iodicale, it is definitely understoodthat "V
Lord Northcliffe's death will led to no
change. Although the public is gen-
erally unaware of the fact, this corpor-
ation was the most important source of K'
Lord Northcliffe s revenue and the ono
that -caused him the least trouble. A
He left the editorial, business and fl-
nanclal work Involved strictly in the
hands of his trusted lieutenants. Sir j
George Sutton, managing director, and j
A. E. Llnforth, the great financial ;

genius of the Northcliffe organization.
The Amalgamated Press has a capital i
of $15,000,000. of which one-half was held i
by Lord Northcliffe. Men who worked
with him for years, say that ho
amassed ' a fortune of not less than
25,000.000 In his 30 years as a pub-
Usher.
