HARNESS FLAYS TRADE POLICY OF NEW DEAL

Introduces Bill to End All Reciprocal Pacts, Ban Them.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, March 8.—A plea for passage of his bill to terminate all the reciprocal trade agreements and to take the power of making them away from the Administration was placed in the Congressional Record today by Rep. Forest A. Harness (R. Ind). “I believe that the grave injustices resulting from New Deal tariff tinkering cannot - be overemphasized,” Rep. Harness said. He charged that a steel mill in his home town of Kokomo could not compete with the barbed wire shipped into his district from Belgium. The Belgian barbed wire isn’t as good, he said, but contends that the wage scales make the extremely low price possible.

Lists Cities Affected

“The average Belgian steel worker makes 17c per hour, while the average worker in an American steel plant earns 82c,” he declared. Foreign glass from Czechoslovakia, Japan and England is working hardships on flint glass plants at Marion, Hartford City, Dunkirk, Red Key and Gas City, Rep. Harness charged. “I speak the overwhelming desires of farmers, workers and businessmen in my district when I urge an immediate revision of the destructive tariff policy which has brought about these conditions,” he concluded.

Halleck Raps Ban On Indiana Products

Times Special WASHINGTON, March 8.—Armed with a special report from the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, Rep. Charles A. Halleck (R. Ind.) today launched a drive to batter down barriers which ban Indiana dairy products from the District of Columbia and several Eastern states. The report was prepared by. the

Bureau for Secretary of Agriculture| Y/allace and published under the

title “Barriers To Internal Trade in Farm Products.”

Rep. Halleck took an immediate

interest in it because a truck full of cream from Lafayette, Ind., which is in his district, was stopped here as| being “bootleg” because of its delivery to a local dairy. Under District health regulations only cream from certified farms in Maryland and Virginia is allowed on the Washington market. : Attacks Barriers

The Indiana Congressman took| __

the floor in the House to present a District Health Department report showing that a test of the Lafaystte cream proved that it was “as good if not better” than any marketed here. “Such state embargoes as repre-| sented by this District of Columbia law are wiping out the economic

‘| advantages which made this coun-

try great,” Rep. Halleck declared. “Indiana has taken a step in the right direction by abolishing the beer law restrictions. Other states should follow suit and certainly Congress should not permit the Dis‘trict of Columbia to provide a hor-| rible example of interstate tariff | barriers.”

Less Popular but Ludlow Idea Still Favored By 6 Out of 10.

By DR. GEORGE GALLUP American Institute of Public Opinion NEW YORK, March 8.—The constitutional amendment introduced in the Senate last week requiring a national referendum before the United States can engage in a war overseas is approved, at this time, by a majority of American voters. ~ On four occasions in the last two years the American Institute of Public Opinien has = conducted cross - section surveys on the war referendum plan, and each time the plan has been in- . dorsed by the public. The latest survey, just completed, finds that although the referendum idea is less popular today than it was last year or the

f | year before, it is still favored by

nearly six out of every 10 voters,

f | most of whom say that “the poli-

ticians should consult the people because the people have to do the

The vote in the latest survey was on the following question: “Should the Constitution be changed to require Congress to obtain the approval of the people in a

b national vote. before the United

States could take part in a war overseas?” First Test in 1936 That war referendum issue was

dum bill was introduced in Congress last year, President Roosevelt and State Department officials vigorously opposed its passage, arguing that such a measure might tie the hands of the State Department in dealing with foreign countries. This opposition may account for part of the decline in sentiment favoring the referendum, but the latest survey results indicate that the referendum idea has by no nieans been

concerned. Difference in Age Groups

The survey finds no substantial |

difference in the attitude ot Democratic and Republican voters—

by a vote of 57 per ceni, Republieans by a vote of 54 per cent. There were notable opinion differences, however, by age; sex and income group.
