(AP) Prediction that women's styles will change and call for longer skirts, with a resultant increase in the demand for wool, was made before today's session of the Na tional Wool Growers' convention. The growers also heard a fore cast of steady or rising wool prices during the next 20 years tariff tn which it is subject under Agreement on vnesiion oi ' Naval Reduction WASHINGTON. Jan. 20. (AP) In the face of opposition on the part of republican party leaders to revision of the tariff at this time Itepreeehtative Dickinson of Iowa, publican, today proposed an in- tff-ase in toe impuri raica uu muic tl.an a dozen farm commodities the transfer of a number of others from the free to the pro tected list. He introduced a bill to that end and it was referred to the ways und means committee which must uasa on tariff legislation but pre dictions based on the lineup of the house recently on the tariff ques tion ror tne most pan were mow it would not get far. lias Farmer In Mind Dickinson is a leader of the f.irni bloc in the house and his ( lopceai is aesigueu ivi uuc, farmer. While democrats and a number of republicans from farm sections are expected to favor a import of the measure from com mittee, democratic leaders have inclined to commit themselves to any program on the floor. Several days ago the senate resolution vhich called for a scaling down of "excessive" tariff duties a a ineans of . affording farm , relief, as tabled by the house by a rath r decisive vote, this result be ing considered by many as an in- ickrion that the house is in no iood to readjust tarif schedule. .Mr. Dickinson in a statement plained the effect of his bill on the fine shape for the contemplated trip hia favored 'real beer" as a step toward temperance, it was said, law. Declaring that the demand for wool among the women of the civ ilized world had virtually reached the vanishing point J. S. Stres- senger, member of a large Boston wool firm said that !'w16He we cannot expect that women will ever go back to the lorig skirts of 1 0 or 15 years ago, some day Ktrlea of women's clothing will chance and skirts will be some What longer and every six Inches additional length on a woman's skirt means in the aggregate, mil lions of yards of cloth." ! Again the time is coming when it will be more fashionable for women to wear woolen dresses in stead of silk and rayon, and that, will mean many more million pounds of wool, he continued. Robert N. Stanfield, former United States senator from Ore gon, declared that customs ap praisers at the various ports of entry were in office largely as the result of their political influence and not for their technical know ledge of wool, and recommended th aDDointment of expert ap praisers without political connec-j tions. The former senator urged the wool growers to support the Smoot grazing bill which would legalize the use of the national forest for crazing, and would set up a board to decide the grazing rate for these preserves.

With The Statesman HAVANA. Cuba, Jan. 20. (AP) The United States delegation to the Pan-American congress, will Interpose no difficulties to an open and frank discussion of American policies in the Caribbean and in Latin America generally. It was said authoritatively to day that should other participat ing countries urge such a review the United States mission Is quite ready to say to the assembled rep resentatives of the twenty Latin American republics that Washing ton feels there is nothing to hide nothing to regret in the govern ment's stand in that connection. In the absence of requests for such a debate however and so far no actual indication exists that any delegation will bring the mat ter up American representatives will maintain their present policy of going to the limit in accommo dating proposals and wishes eman ating from other missions while avoiding any appearance of desir ing to exert preponderant influen ces in conferences and delibera tions. Prepared to Stand Pat It was pointed out however, by the same authority that despite America's intention to leave noth ing undone to facilitate good un derstanding and agreements" at this conference the Washington government has not changed its position on many fundamental points of national policy regarding which its delegation here will doubtless, at the proper time, be adamant. Specific points whereon the United States will prove intran- sigeant were not designated but it was generally assumed that these include the proposal for the establishment of unconditional "One seven O seven, please. "Is this the Alpha Psi Delta house: Is Mr in? Please. "Is this Mr .? This is Miss Would you care to go to the Elstnore tomor row night? I believe they are showing 'Man, Woman and Sin' "Ob, that's fine. When shall I call for you? Seven-thirty will be just right. Goodbye." Conversations such as the above probably never have been heard emanating from Lausanne hall or any of the sorority houses at Wil lamette university, . but they are going to be common throughout most of February or else every body at tbe university is going to go dateless. Bill Mum ford, football star at the local Methodist college, threw a bombshell into proceedings Fri day morning at the student body meeting when he introduced a resolution setting aside the period from February 4 to February 21 as a time for strict observance of the leap year idea. All dates between students at the university are to be asked for by the women; they are to pay the incidental expenses, call for the men at their residences and escort them home safely after ward. This proposal, despite the fact that it temporarily robs man of his privilege of choice, met with universal approval on the mascu line side of the house, but the women were pretty well divided. At first none of them stood up to vote for it; finally about on third did. When the negative vote was called by the President Charles Redding, another third of the women arose. About an equal number indicated no preference The first event at which this inverted procedure will take ef feet, will be the post-exam jubi lee, February 4.

FIRE NETS THREE YEARS Arguments were heard in the state supreme court Friday in the case of Ellsworth Kelley. convict, who is attempting to obtain his release from the state penitentiary through habeas corpus proceed ings. Kelley was convicted of first degree murder in connection with the slaying of two guards during .i break at the penitentiary in August, 1925. Attorneys for Kelley alleged, that he was being detained illegal ly in the prison and had a legal right to shoot his way out of the institution. He originally was committed to the penitentiary from Josephine county to serve a term of 20 years for aiding and abetting in the escape of a pris oner. The circuit court for Marion county held for the state in the habeas corpus proceedings, with the result that Kelley's attorneys appealed the case to the supreme court. WASHINGTON. Jan. 20. (AP) Illinois seems destined t have only one half of Its constitu tional representation ln the United, States senate during the t present congress unless Frank tf. Smith resigns or mandamus proceedings are brought to compel the secre tary of state to provide for an election of a senator. Governor Len Small's an nouncement today that he would refuse to recognize the action of the senate yesterday in declaring Smith '8 seat vacant means that Il linois will have only one senator at least until December, 1929, un less an election is forced in Illi nois this year. Most Senators Concur Most ot the leaders ln the sen ate hold this action ln declaring the seat vacant vitiated tbe 192C election of Smith and put the governor on notice that the sen ate was ready to receive the cre dentials of a new senator to be appointed by him. This contention is disputed by friends of Smith who take the po sition that the governor cannot appoint until he had formally handed In his resignation. That Smith has indicated repeatedly he would not do. However, some of Smith's friends think he should resign and go before the people In the April primaries on a platform calling for approval of his primary cam paign contributions and expendi tures in 1926 which caused the senate to refuse to seat him .by a vote of 61 to 23. Should he win in that primary and in the general election, these friends take the position that the fight then would be one between the voters of Illinois and the sen ate and that Smith would be in a much stronger position in demand ing his seat than he would be If he held to his present credentials and asked the senate in the 71st (Continued on PI 8) FRIGID WEATHER HURTS PORTLAND SILVER THAW SETTLES OV SOME PARTS OF CITY DIVORCES 3RD NOBLEMAN Separation At Los Angele Brings Up Total For Woman Job at Newspaper Plant at Rainier Ends Unprofitable ST.

Just opened to traffic following a long tie up as the result of tha preceding storm again was in dan ger of being blocked. At that hour it was snowing heavily oa the highway. Between three and tour inches had already fallea during the day. "We've got four plows going continuously," Northrop tele phoned, , "and "we are going to work all night In an attempt to keep the-highway open. It looks pretty bad." Just how. successful the road crew will be will not be known un til tomorrow. At 11 p. m. tonight in Portland it war-raining and sleeting, with weather conditions virtually "per feet" for a ailver thaw. t The weather man gave but scant hope for an Immediate break ap la the cold snap. - Although - the t-- silver thaw reached a point late tonight that made driving dangerous, no ma jor accidents had been reported.
