EMERGENCY TARIFF ADOPTED BY HOUSE BY 196 TO 86 VOTE WASHINGTON, Dec. 23 Orer the

y protests ot a defiant minority, the

house last night adopted the Pordney emergency tariff bill by a vote ot 196 to 86. The vote was taken at 8:45 V clock after eight hours of debate. , It was evident long before the rote as taken that supporters ot the measure, designed to protect some twenty odd farm products for a ten-mpnths' period, had the situation well In hand. But Representative Henry T. Ralney. . Democrat, ot Illinois, leading the opposition opened a bitter attack which increased .in intensity as the debate wore on. , , Paragraph by paragraph, he assailed the measure, while the Republicans with loud roars of "noes" sent his . proposed amendments down to defeat. A few Republicans supported him in his attack, but a score of his own party turned from their traditional stand against a high tariff to join the majority. Admits Bill Hasitly Drawn Opposition speakers charged that the measure would send the cost ot living higher, and branded it as class legislation. Defenders of the bill, onj ine oiner nana, saia 11 wouia save the agricultural Industry.' Chairman Fordney of the ways and " means committee, which reported the measure, in opening debate declared the measure was not scientific and . admitted it was hastily drawn, but asserted that it was the best that could be had at this time. ' Representative Garner, Democrat, of Texas, speaking lu support of the bill, said he felt It was the only way in which congress could extend the relief o urgently needed by the farmers. Representative Madden, Republican, of Illinois, however, assailed his colleagues for "opening' the way to a renewal of prohibitive living costs." Pointing his finger at the majority leader's desk, he said: ."You men will make two lamb chops cost $1.30 again and you will makei our suits ot clothe? cost 100 per cent more." Sees Plan to Split Party. Representative Garrett of Tennessee said he saw "In this bill a determined effort to divide the Democratic party, to make members of that party turn their backs on every principle of taxation for which the party has stood in its whole history." "I can not believo the Republican leaders seriously hope to get this bill passed," he added. , "I am convinced it is a fine piece of political strategy." In his attempts at amendment, Mr Ralney sought to show that the bill for the most part carried higher rates than the Payne-Aldrich tariff. He also warned of retalltory tariffs and embargoes by other nations. In this connection, an amendment by Representative Olney, Democrat, of Massachusetts, to admit wool in transit from Australia and South America at the time ot passage of the measure at prevailing rates of duty was voted down. American Legion I! 1 1 NEW YORK, Dec. 23. Protesting that the 20.000 sick and wounded veterans of the World War are being treated as "so many sheaves of paper at Washington" and as "numbers" rather than "men." F. W. Galbraith Jr., National Commander of the American Legion, has issued an appeal to loyal Americans to take some "human" interest in the welfare of the men who were once acclaimed as "the saviors of the nation." "Meanwhile legion men will visit every hospital In the United States." Mr. Galbraith said. "They will inquire into the care and well being of these men, and then this official visit will be followed by brotherly visits and the hand of fellowship, which is warm in the Legion, shall be extended in place of the hand of charity, which is not wanted and which is cold. These men shall be our 'comrades' not 'cases.' We shall ask the co-operation of every loyal American, especially in the communities where the hospitals 50 HENS LAID 3 EGGS A DAY. NOW LAY 36 Tells How to Make Idle Hens Pro. duce Money In Winter. "When I began using Don Sung In December, I was gutting only 2 or 3 eggs a day from 60 hens. Within three weeks I was getting from 3 to 4 dozens a day. I shall never be without Don Sung." Jermima Hedges, R. F. D. 1, Shumway, III. This 3 or 4 dozen eggs a day, at winter prices, was almost clear profit. Your hens should do as well. It's no trouble to use Don Sung, and you risk nothing by trying it under this offer.
