gestion from the republican chair

ods of tariff making.
Chairman Robert Lincoln
O'Brien, appointed by Hoover and
reappointed by Roosevelt, propos
ed that his party approve the Roo
sevelt reciprocal trade treaty plan

action at the republican national
convention in Cleveland.
Quickly. Representative Tread
way, ranking republican of the
houso ways and means committee,
let it be known that if he has his
way O'Brien will not be given so
much as a hearing. Others jrere
equally emphatic.
O'Brien's proposed plan would
denounce what he termed the old
fashioned congressional "log-rolling
method of writing tariff bills.

time was 33 hours, more than double the present
schedule. Transcontinental fart was $400, or ap
proximately 14 cents a mile, contrasted with five
and one-half cents a mile today. In 1927, the first
full year of operation, there were 12,597 pas
sengers and 1,485,000 pounds of mail carried, in
contrast to 747,000 passengers and 15,000,000

usual spectacle of decorous,
black-garbed priests banging
their prayer books violently on
their kneeling benches in St.
Peter's climaxed Rome's Good
Friday observance. '

clusion of the mourning services
conducted by Eugenio Cardinal
Pacellt, papal secretary of state
and high priest of St. Peter's.
Pope Pius was in profound re
tirement in his apartments, com
memorating Christ's death.
Elsewhere in Rome's many
churches similar services were
conducted. At sunset those chur
ches which bear the name of the
virgin Mary held the "desolata"
ceremonies dedicated to the grief
of the virgin mother as she stood
at the foot of the cross.

Illinois GOP Out
To Show Majority
CHICAGO, April 1 0.-flVCni-ted
at least in enmity to the
New Deal, republican candidates
in Illinois primary next Tuesday
were agreed tonight on one gen
eral hope they hojie to see a
whittling down of the democratic
primary showing to what they re
gard as normal size.
Two years ago the democrats
rolled np a primary strength
which for the first time In years
topped that of their rivals.
Otherwise, the closing days of
the campaign found the republi
cans battling Individually, but not
with the vehemence of their dem
ocratic fellows.
.The chance republicans pro
fessed to see to cut down the
democratic poll total, spurred a
lot of the wheel horses of the
party into action. Among them
was former Mayor William Hale
Thompson. "Big Bill" wag cam
paigning for the nomination for
his protege, Thomas V. Sullivan,
for the attorney - generalship,
