Aoiericaii Cottoo Mamifacti|jrers’ Association Meeting. Washington, D. C., April 12.— Befoie leaving Washington for their homes today cotton manu facturers who have been here at tending the American Cotton Manufacturers^ associotion meet ing were practically unanimous in the adverse criticism of the Underwood tariff bill, which makes a radical reduction in cot ton tariffs. Furthermore, such men as S. B. Tanner, of Char lotte, N. C. and Studart Cramer, the newly elected president of the association, made no secret of their determination to try to defeat the Democratic candidates for Congress next year if they allow the Underwood bill to be* come Jaw. Some “Leading” Threats. ‘ ‘Southern manufactures were much surprised when they found that the Democratic tariff mea sure proposes to reduce the cot ton schedule 50 percent,” said S. B. Tanner, of Charlotte, N. C. “President Wilson in his cam paign speeches said that there would be a GRADUAL reduction of the tariff. Our cotton people agi^eed to this and submittei schedules showing what we could stand. If Underwood bill be comes law we will have to close down our mill We can’t com plete with cheap foreign labor. “I as well other cotton men, have told our representatives in Congress, ‘You vvill put us out of business this year; we will put you-out of Congress next year,’ concluded Mr. Tanner.” May Not Pass, Says Erwin. Said W. A. lirwin, of Durham, “Eifty per cent, in my opinion, is more than the cotton mill can stand. The Underwood bill has not passed Congress yet, and may not pass.” Mr. Erwin, who has just re tired from the presidency of the association, said in addressing that body: Oppose Re(’n:tion of Cotton Bill. “A downward revision of the tariff, which the party now in power and having a majority in both houses of Congress is com mitted to, is fraught with hazard not only to the success, but very existence of some of our industrial and commercial enterprises. This revision is contemplated with the gravest apprehensions on the part of some of the mem bers of our association. How ever, in our opinion, the matter should be considered by the Am erican people from a fair and broad, viewpoint, and a great measure of hope be indulged in that the new administration shall deal with this most important matter on progressive and yet wise and conservative lines. This hope, we think, is fully warrant ed by the confidence expressed in the November election in the present administration by a great majority of the voters of our nation. Especially is general confidence centered in the wis dom and justice of that great statesman, the present head of our republic, whose wisdom would prompt him and v^^hose courage would not fail him in vetoing any measure which would threaten the industries that we have here assembled in annual convention to perpetuate and rejoice in.” • ; L. 0. Barnhart, of Concord, said: “The cotton schedules were already as low as we could stand. If this proposed bill goes into ef fect I will not be responsible for the result either financially or politically.” Talks to President. Several members of the Ameri can Cotton Manufacturer’s as sociation called upon President Wiison to talk about the proposed bill before leaving Washington. They were told at the White House that they could not expect any help from that source. Col. LeRoy Springs, one of the wealthiest cotton manufacturers in South Carolina, told friends, after he talked with Mr. Wilson, j that he received absolutely no encouragement from the Presi dent. “The President,” said Mr. Springs, “told us that it was up to Chairman Underwood, of the ways and means committee.” Sitamohs Cannot Help. A North Carolina manufacturer said that Senator Simmons had told him that he could not help the situation. He said even if Senator Simmons was so disposed, his committee would prevetit his aiding the cotton mill men. ' Ihe fas 63t and most furious lobby fight seen in W^hington witfiin a quarter of a century ended today - when the cotton manufacturers, who had arrived in WashinfiTton aliout the time the tanff bill appeared from the keeping of the ways and means committee, began leaving for their homes. The effects of the mill men to influence the ways, and means committee a^rid other members of Congress ana to coax the White House has certainly failed. To Keep Lobbying. Robert Miller, chairman of the committee on tariff legislation, urged the members of the asso ciation to keep “jabbing” on the senators and representatives from their respective states to use their influence to change the proposed rates.

New York, .April 10. - A Wash ington dispatch to the New York Sun Says: When asked tonight concern ing a rumor that he was engaged to marry Mrs. Seth Barton French Secretary of the Treasurery Mc Adoo said: “The report is entirely incor rect. I feel obliged to make this statement in order that Mrs. French may be spared the an noyance which such rumors must cause her.” Why He Couy/a't Go in. A small but very black negro was standing very erect at one side of the door of a house where a colored man had just died. The services were about to begin, when the negro clergyman ap peared at the door and said to the little fellow: “The services are about to be gin. Aren’t you coming inside?” “I would if I could,” said the little boy, ‘.‘but you see I’s de crape”—Ladies’ Home Journal. “Tink” Horn Badly Burned S.
