WASHINGTON. Aug. 29.
'(AP) The house proposal to au
thorize President Hoover to re
create the tariff commission by
appointing new members without
waiting for the terms of the com
missioners serving to expire has
been retained in the tariff bill as
revised by the republican mem
bers of the senate finance com
mittee. The president recommended in
bis message to the special session
that legislation be enacted pro
viding for a reorganization of the
commission, and the text of the
reframed tariff measure made
public today disclosed that the
way had been opened for the ex
ecutive to bring this about.
Three From Same
Party is Maximum
The house provision authorizing
the executive to appoint new mem
bers without regard to party af
filiations, however, was stricken
out and the existing language pro
Tided that not more than three
commissioners shall be of the
same political party was restored.
The house had provided for a
commission of seven, designed to
prevent deadlocks of important de
cisions, with terms of seven
years, as against six members at
present with terms of 12 years,
but the finance committee major
ity bill calls for six members to
serve six years each. Their sal
aries would be 512,000 a year as
compared with $7,500 under ex
isting law.
Each incumbent would serve
until his successor was nominated,
confirmed and assumed office.
The president, however, could re
tain any member he desired.
Florida Man's Term
Expires Next Year
Under present law the term of
Commissioner Frank Clark, of
Florida, expires September 7,
1930; that of Edgar B. Brossard.
Utah, the same date in 1932;
Chairman Thomas O. Marvin, of
Massachusetts, 1934; vice chair
man Alfred P. Dennis, Maryland,
1936; Lincoln Dixon, Indiana,
1938, and Sherman J. Lowell, New
York, 1940.
All rates previously made pub
lic as having been tentatively
agreed upon were made perman
ent as far as the committee is con
cerned in the printed text.
SENATOR NYE, sheteemfwyp
Senator Nye, republican, North
Dakota, said It would be better to
have no tariff bill at all than the
pending measure. Senator Harri
son, democrat. Mississippi, de
scribed the bill as "even worse
than when It was passed by the
house."
Majority Report is
Slightly Delayed
Chairman Smoot of the commit
tee announced that the majority
J report on the bill which he had
planned to make public tomor
row or Friday would not be ready
until next Tuesday.
The committee republicans
heeded the protest of Buffalo mill
ers and struck out a new house
provision subjecting Canadian
wheat imported and milled in bond
. for export to Cuba to a tariff equal
to the amount of duty preference
which Cuba grants American
flour, which is 30 per cent. South
western millers had pponsored the
new clause.
The text also disclosed the eli
mination of the house proposal to
deny the 9 9 per cent duty draw
back on export flour made from
imported wheat, and restoration
of existing provisions making the
refund apply in cases where Im
ported wheat was mixed with not
less than 30 per cent American
wheat.
While most of the important
changes previously had been made
public, the text revealed a new
provision authorizing Porto Rico
t impose a tariff on coffee, In- i
eluding coffee imported, from the
United States.
While the same duties levied by
the United States are collected on
imports to Porto Rico, coffee is!
now on the American free list;
and the duty authorization, to ap
ply only on coffee imported by
Porto Rico was regarded as a step
toward assisting in the rehabilita
tion of the island's coffee plant
ers, who suffered heavy losses dur
ing last year's hurricane.
Another new provision would
forbid the secretary of agriculture
to bar importation of nursery
stock, fruits, vegetables, roots,
bulbs, seeds, or other plant pro
ducts unless they are infected with
disease or Injurious insects. Exist
ing law Is much more stringent
and department of agriculture of
ficials said they would fight for
elimination of the clause.
Organized labor
Representative Recognized i
The bill would change the pres- i
ent law to permit a representative j
of organized labor to appear in j
reappraisement cases and to In-1
spect documents of consignees and j
Importers, together with manufac- j
turers, producers, and wholesal- j
ers, and make unlawful the im
portation of any merchandise of;
foreign manufacture if marked
patented in the United States. !

revealed tonight that he had sent i
a special envoy to Cuba to study
the claims of Barlow against the
Cuban government for alleged j
seizure of his land. While he de- j
clined to disclose any further de- j

devoted more personal attention j
to Barlow's case than that of any
other American investor in for- j
elgn lands.

charges against him were false. !
