HIGHEST TARIFF GROUP SCORES NEW VICTORIES Bill *Pushed on Way to Enactment With Grundy Rates Intact. By ftcripps-Hmrard Xetcspapcr Alliance WASHINGTON, May 2—The highest tariff bill in history was on its way to enactment today with the so-called Grundy rates intact. Eventual victory was predicted for the protectionists as a result of the action of the house in accepting the conference report by a vote of 240 to 151, and the imposition of a 6-cent tariff on cement, which now is on the free list. The high tariff group solidified their gains by rejecting the Blease amendment, which would permit free importation of cement to be used for public works, by 221 to 167 These two ballots showed that advocates of the measure as revised in conference had command of their forces, and probably would win additional battles when the other controversial schedules are taken up today and Saturday. Debenture Plan Doomed These include such essential commodities as sugar, shingles and lumber, with silver as the fourth. ■The Longworth machine also is expected to kill the senate’s debenture plan and the proposal which strips the President of his power to raise and lower rates at will. The high tariff victories were obtained almost by party vote, only sixteen western Republicans and one Farmer-Laborite voting again the conference report. These were offset by eighteen Democrats from the south and New England. The only Republican from the east to oppose the conference rates was Representative La Guardia of New York City. He also denounced the cement duty as a tax which would cost the home renters and builders millions of dollars a year. In fact there was little serious discussion of the bill itself by either side. Little Serious Discussion The Democrats used the same sort of speeches always heard in tariff debates, and the Republicans : •- plied with a general defense of the protective system. Even the ancient “full dinner pail" argument was dragged out by Representative Frank Crowther of New York. Though leaders would make no definite prediction of the outcome on other schedules, it generally is believed the house would accept the 2.20 rate on sugar and the senate’s tariffs on lumber and shingles. The 2.20 figure is a compromise between the senate’s rate of 2 and the house duty of 2.40. Lumber and shingles were on the free list as the bill left the house. Longworth hopes to finish with the measure by Saturday night, when the senate will be called to vote on the rates as amended in the lower body. FUNERAL RITES SET Frank Eckert Will Be Laid to Rest Saturday. Funeral services will be held at 1:30 p. m. Saturday for Frank Eckert, 75, mechanical superintendent of the Indianapolis Star, who dropped dead in the garden at his home, 2926 Bellefontaine street, Thursday. Burial will be in Crown Hill cemetery. The widow, Mrs. Beatrice Eckert; a son, George Eckert, Alexandria; two grandchildren and one greatgrandchild survive him. DISCUSS ROAD CLOSING South Side Project Will Come Up at Chic Meeting. Closing of the Bluff road at the proposed Belt railroad elevation will be discussed tonight by the South Meridian Street Civic Club at a meeting at Druids hall, 1315 South Meridian St. John Kirch, president, invited city officials to attend.

BOOSTS MEATS PLAN Packaging to Prove Boon, Packer Says. Bu United Press CHICAGO, May 2.—Packaging of meats in quantities such as the average household will use to advantage will prove a boon both to the retailer and the housewife, in the opinion of G. F. Swift, Chicago packer. ‘‘The present meat retailers are the most natural channel of distribution for the packaged fresh meat cuts. They know what the people want and they know how to handle the product properly,” Swift said. “The housewife also will be buying advantageously; what she buys is ready for her oven or broiler. For the new housewife, too, packaged meats offer an easy method of learning just what the various cuts of meat are.” RIVER GIVES UP BODY Head of Glass Plant Believed to Have Committed Suicide. Bu United x°ress TERRE HAUTE, Ind., May 2. The body of Carey Granger, manager of the Turner Glass Company, Terre Haute, who was drowned early Tuesday morning, April 22, was found two miles below the Wabash river bridge in Clinton today. A coroner’s verdict in the case merely said that he died by drowning, but a suicide theory is generally accepted because of many statements Granger made during the last few hours of life, that it was the last time friends would see him alive. No further investigation was expected, although a bloody watch was found in his automobile.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
SPANISH KING | ACTS AS HOST TO HISTORIANS ‘ " Distinguished Scholars Arc at Meeting Being Held in Seville. BY WILLLIAM H. LANDER, United Press Staff Correspondent SEVILLE, Spain, May 2.—The third international congress of His-pano-American history and geography met here today in the presence of distinguished historians and scholars from the three Americas and Spain. The congress is being held under the patronage of King Alfonso XIII, who will preside at the formal inauguration Saturday, shortly before returning to Madrid. The duke of Alba is chairman of the executive committee. King Alfonso will be host at a farewell banquet to the city of Seville Saturday night, and afterwards he will attend a ball given by officials of the Iberian-American exposition, which is about to close. The greatest wealth of historical material dealing with the colonization of the new world is in Seville; and at nearby Huelva and Palos are places intimately linked with the life and career of Christopher Columbus. All these points will be visited by the delegates. One of the most interesting aspects during the congress will be the thesis to be delivered by the Peruvian historian-engineer, Luis Ulloa, concerning the discovery of America. Ulloa believes that Columbus, a Catalan and not an Italian, already had discovered America before he made his’ trip in 1942, under the patronage of Fernando and Isabel. OHIO PRISON QUIET Fire in Unruly Prisoners’ Stockade Brings Flurry. By United Press COLUMBUS, 0., May 2.—Quiet prevailed at the state penitentiary today after considerable excitement had been caused by a fire in a tent inside the barbed wire stockade where 800 unruly prisoners were confined earlier this week. Prison officials first believed a convict set the blaze, but it was said later a cigaret, apparently carelessly dropped, caused the fire. National guardsmen patrolling the stockade quickly extinguished -it. There never has been a time when the artist was so well off as regards paints. He can work in colors, scientifically made, which will make his picture last for centuries.
