A N E W MEDICINE BALL CABINET ARMAMENTS AN D TARIFFS Foreign Secretary Henderson of Great Britain, although agreeing with .Mr. Hoover that armaments were a contrlbutary cause o f the world trade oepresslon, Im m e d iately referred to ex isting tariff conditions ln the follow ing words: \Among the different causes con tributing to the w o r ld depression the magnitude and the high level of pro tective tariffs rank first nnd foremost\ As respects M r . Henderson's sug gestion, Mark S u llivan points out that If the emphasis be placed upon the \high level\ the suggestion offers In theory at least n n opportunity for gradual relief, although any attempt nt reduction would Inevitably lead to discussion of the terms “high\ and “low\. Aa far as A m e r ica Is concerned, there has been & great deal of criti cism of the tariff as it now exists from Republican, Democratic and business quarters. Expectation of reduction by Congress looks fo r notion chiefly to lhe Democratic P a r t y and the West ern \Progressive\ Republicans. But even now, . Democrats fro m ) Texas and O k lahom a and \Progres sive” Republicans from Kansas, are preparing one of the most thoroughly organized drives for a tariff on oil ever s«en in this country. A similar drive is being prepared for a tariff on copper, backed by those states having copper mines In w h ich the cost of production Is high. This, like tho drive for a tariff on oil is an entirely new departure in tariffs. Furthermore It is supported as the ilrst one Is, by a group of Democrats and progressive Jtepbllcnns. I t is hard to t.elieve thnt these gen tlemen will have the .’aeart to insist on a reduction In tariffs on other .com modities while u r g ing their own tariffs on oil and copper. As Mr. Sullivan says, \Their earnestness for their own cause will perm it them to ho tol- e ia n t toward the ta r if f on other com modities.\ America, then, offers a rather un promising field for tariff reduction, nt least at the present moment. When one considers that Mr. Henderson's attack was aimed, not only nt the United States, hut nt nil countries where high tariffs nre In effect, Including Franco nnd Italy, the Impossibility ot imme diate co-operation b.vjomes apparent. Mr. Henderson w o u ld have a slight ly simpler task if he attacked arnia- rupnts, nnd let it go .'it that On that subject, at lenst the L’nitPd States sroms willing to co-operate in a prac tical manner. A GESTURE THE T H I R D FLAG Like the W h ite R a b b it a t sight of Alice, the new' German \pocket battle ship\ bolted at mention of the League of Nations. Determined to hear no more, she slid down the w a js six m inutes ahead of time, leaving Chancellor Bruening’s spcech In mid-air, along w ith Presi dent Yon Ilindenburg’s unsmasued bot tle ot champagne. A dazed crowd too surprised to cln.er, watched her go, w h ile the band stood by, forgetting to toot forth appropriate music. Such signs of independence speak well for the young ship, n u t she has a great deal to lean1. The gesture placed her In tlie class of “unchrist- sym p athetic ear, nnd agree to reduce misfortunes, is unimportant compared to the fnct that nn attempt is being made to reduce ^theni. It shows that the theater business, oven if in des peration. believes tliero Is still a chance 'fo r touring companies. The Theater Guild has undoubtedly strengthened this belief For several >tftrs now It has taken its most suc cessful productions on tour to Phila delphia, Boston and o'her cities in the East. This year It branched om, send ing companies to Geneva and other sm a ll cities. Producers and managers evidently desire to follow the Theater Guild In to the provinces Let ,’s hope thnt the T runk Line Association will lend a fined ships\ a source of uneasiness to sailors. Doctor J3ruen!ng nnd l ’resi dent Von Ilin d e n lu r g could have told her that patience and politeness, where tlie League of Nations is concerned, are better policy than a display of temper and independence. W h e n she Is as old as they aro, she w ill real- 170 thnt six minutes’ or six months’, delay is often preferable and more profitable than too sudden action. the rate s — if, and the “if\ is import ant, the managers w ill promise that no third-rate companies will bo given a chance to use them. ON THE ROAD AGAIN A Washington Daybook (B y Herbert Plummer, Stnff W riter of the Associated Press) Captain Sir George Hubert Wilkins ■nas the guest of honor at a farewell luncheon at tho C ity Club Tuesday. Richard S. Childs, president nf the d u b , wished C a p tain Wilkins \fiod speed\ and presented to him n small Mlk flag Two sim ila r flass hung in glass frames behind tho speakers ruble. One of them C a p tain Wilkins had carried in his Arctic flight, the other wi tbe Antarctic Captain W ilkins le f t yesterday for New London where the submarine, Nautilus, is im d e rgoing final tests preparatory to her departure for the Arctic. He plnns to make the Journey in mid-summer, w h e n there are few, if any icebergs, nnd when the danger 1 from pack lee is negligible. Although Captain Wilkins admits ihe difficulties and dangers of the trip, he and his supporters feel that It is less llnble to accident tlinn his air ex Iterations. Thov have a faith In ’he 3S new devices, designed to protect the N a u tilus from various kinds nf dlsas ter, which is ta lk in g In the average hum a n being. Furthermore C a p tains Wilkins and bis associates feel that the good which may come out of the trip justifies an> risks he and the crew must take He hopes to make a record ot the tem perature and the m a rine life along i thousands of miles of tlie under-sea journey, records w h ich may have an im p o rtant bearing on the mystery of •vhere the gulf stream ends. The United Slates will follow the progress of the N a u tilu s with interest and anxiety, hoping w ith Captain W il kins that his explorations will lie sue cessful and his am b itions satisfied, but hoping pven more strongly that next year will find the C ity Club's third sm a ll silk flag safely rpturncd to join '•he other two w h ich buns tiPhlnd tIi. tpeakers’ table lust I ucxia<.
