jump Patrolman Brown came on the
scene and calmed her.
AlthoiiKli he was aware of tho nossi-

By the time the engines arrived the

routed from their sleep, formed n
human chain by clinging hand-to-hand
and, led by Mendozza, made their way

L f
nbly for tho jewel
This arrangement worked smoothly,
she said, until Harder died. Lnter,
whlio shopping with Mrs. Harder, the
latter lost .$100 and "made mean In
sinuations," Miss Galblum testified.
Miss Gulblum said she wanted no
trouble and thnt she turned over the
lavalliere. Later sho demanded the
roturn of tho jewel, explaining it hail
been n gift, but Mrs. Harder refused to
return it.
May Start Now Suit
Judge Ferguson dismissed the suit
without prejudice to Miss Unlbltim,
explaining thnt there had not been suffi
cient proof to' show the lavalliere had
been a gift.
Tho Judge pointed out that the proper
procedure would be to start tin action
in replevin in order to recover the
lavalliere. Miss Galblum said she would
take the Judge's suggestion.

Wnslilncton, June 7. Congress is in
such a jam on legislation ns seriously
tn thrcntcn the success of President
Harding's Administration.
Tax reform, to which thc business
of the country looks for its hope of re
covery, lies behind various conflicts be
tween the House nnd the Sennto and
conflicts in botli houses between Repub
licans of divergent opinions.
The tnrni bill, which wus to nave
been reported by Congressman Ford
ney's committee to the House when the
special session convened on April 11.
Is far from completion. Unprejudiced
observers feel that the bill will hardly
bo ready before July 1.
In addition to the tariff dispute in
the House Itself, there are the conflicts
between the two houses on the Nnvnl
and Military Appropriation bills, on the
Borah diarmnment resolution nnd cu
the resolution declaring nn end of the
wnr.
Seek to Get Together
The joint meeting of tho Steering
Committee of both houses called for to
morrow is an effort of the leaders of
both houses to make the legislative
mill work, but tlic Steering Committees
have little control over either house
and it is doubtful whether they can
achieve any ngrccment which will solve
the difficulty.
Up to the present Mr. Hnrdlng has
interfered little with the progress of
legislation in Congress except to use
his influence to secure tlic ratification
of the Columbian treaty.
He has taken no definite stand on
the nnval und army appropriations nor
on the terms of the disarmament reso
lution. The tnriff and its relative place
in the program before or after taxation
legislation he seems to hnve left'to Con
gress. Up has no machine for getting a
progrnm through cither House nnd up
till now nt least is apparently following
the Toft policy of letting Congress
alone.
The division in tlic House on the tnriff
is serious. Tlic Wuys and Means
Committee of the House was hand
picked by Chairman Fordney, but even
in thnt small specially selected body so
bitterly contested nre the various sched
ules that only half of them urc agreed
upon.
Differ on Tariff Principles
Not only is there n disagreement on
details of the tariff, but there is a fun
damental ditTercucc of opinion on th
principle which should underlie tariff
making. Chairman Fordney is nil old
fashioned high protectionist, who wishes
to put u tariff wall about tho United
States. Representative " Longworth.
also a member of the Wnys and Means
Committee, is n protectionist who holds
thnt protection should be adjusted to
the new conditions nrising from the fact
that tho war lias left this country a
creditor nation vltnlly interested in the
development of its foreign trade.
Mr. Longuorth would probably be a
low tariff man. if rates of exchange nnd
the cost of production were clear enough
so that nny one could say just where
duties should be put so as to afford
protection to American industries where
it is needed and at the same time not
to exclude foreign sellers from our
markets, it being necessary that this
country should be open to foreign goods
in order thnt there should be a market
abroad for American products.
Iiiguortli Would Experiment
To solve this doubt Mr. Longworth
would make rates experimental, fixing
them high iu the bill, but giving thc
President authority to cut them down
or icinil them entirely in consideration
uf foreign countries opening their mar
kets similarly to American goods. This
is the reciprocity or "bargaining
tariff" idu.
But the special reason for it in Mr.
Longworth's mind is the uncertainty
jiibt where duties should be placed so
as to preeut this cnuntr from being
Hooded with foreign merchandise nnd at
