BRITTON (By Special Leased Wire) Washington, June 29. Southern Senator! are up in ami in opposition to the confirmation of the, negro, Henry Lincoln Johnion, Republican National committeeman for Georgia, at Recorder of Deeds for the Pistfict of Columbia. If be it confirmed it will take the Re publicans to do it, for the Democratic Senators are going to oppose having the Georgia -negro politician put back In the -position from which he was ousted when Woodrow Wilson became Presi dent. Johnson was appointed as re eorder of deeds for the District by President Taft, and when Demoern's came into power in 191.1 he went out, the position going to a white man, John F. Costcllo, member of tho Democratic committee for the District. The first news of th nomination of the Georgia negro by President Hard ing was heard by IjVnator Harris, of Georgia. He will fight it to the limit. It aroused his ire, as it did that of Senator Thomas Wnttjon, of Georgia. Senator Watson termed the nominntjon "a flagrant insult to the State of Geor gia," and the Georgia Senators found solid backing for their views, indigr.a tion being expressod by Senators Sim mons and Overman, Smith and Dinll ef South Carolina, TrnmmeJl and T Letcher of Florida, John Sharp Williams nd Pat Hanson, of Mississippi, Lndo.r wood and Heflin, of Alabama, and othir Southern Senators. !The opinion is that there will be aolid line-Up of the Democrats ags.iist the nomination. And as Senator Borah has given warm expression to his (opinion of the negto politician there lis a feeling that ha and othersiram !the West will Be found in opposition to the nomination, if the sdmtnistrn tiOB does not whiyp them into inc. Senator Hiram Johnson said he had no 'further interest in the linney or Jobn- . son eases. k Senator Simmons Not Snprlsc4 Senator 8immons expressed no sur fnriso at the nomination of the Goorria negro, for the signs indicated that some negro appointment wars coming aa an aftermath of the hqmillation of Frank A. Linney in bis surrender to the North Carolina negroes. It is thought that Senator Simmons feels that the nomination of Johnson was per haps the natural thnig to follow the enforced, surrender of Linney to the negroes before confirmation would be promised te him, the. force that causod Mr. Linney humiliation coming from ha Bcnubhaan National administra tion. The administration, it seems, is determined to force every white Be publican leader in the Scnata to bow down before and eater to the negroes is a condition to obtaining recognition And in especial the Republican Sena .tori from states in which the negro wields the balance of power are going tit da what the administration tells them te do. And it has told them that the Georgia negro must be confirmed Henry Lincoln Johnson, as Recordor of Deeds for the District of Uolummu, will nave something above 50 employees under hia-eontroL About 30 of these re Tonnar white women. From some of thaia already there have come expros lone akin to anguish that they will either have to give up positions which thev need, or take orders from a negro, Some have had friends see members ef the Senate in their behalf, asking that these Senators aid them in seeur ins? nositisns in other branches of the srovernment: or to aid in defeating the confirmation of the negro. The pain and humiliation that facet these young, women is the same that hat affected the-young women of the office ef the registrar of the treasury, young women from all sections and of the , two parties, as set out in their letter of protest against the appointment of " negro registrar of the treasury. ' Mar Rtalrt From Commit. There is a report that when Johnson ! confirmed he ia to resign from mem rutrahta in the Republican National committee, that this it one price he is te) pay for the Job of reeorder, at he is" too ir.neh in. evidence in the public ara aa a Republican National commit teeman. Johrscii, however, assured his ealored followers in Georgia some time ago that he would not surrender his position on the committee, no ia mucn la evldenco wbea the Republican com mittee meets, and shows that he feels hU importance. 8o unless all signs fail ., the negro is going to stick to the Re publican National eommittee just , as -ions- aa -he ia able to do so. "?It le a disgusting appointment," said Congressman Stedman today in talk ink with me about nomination of the negro, "nut tnat is wnas is w o 1 tmrtad f rora a Reottbliean administra tion." -Ad the view of Major Stedman is echoed by the other members of the NortU Carolina delegation, as well as by the DemoeraU generally of VM Hons. - The feeling among these that President Harding and the admi titration generally will pat. pressure to bear, where pressure. is nee-led, upon Bepublieaa Senators so as to put Over tha eonfiraauon ox jonnsen. oe- FIGHT prevent mm Mill '.. . - XCfitiiw4 A PW Four).

The radio controlled battleship Iowa, representing an enemy fleet attacking the Atlantic coast, was located in a few minutes less than two aonrt by army dirigibles today when about 50 miles off shore snd 90 miles north snd east of Cape Henry. More than a score of bombing planes, manned by Naval and Marine Corps personnel, rushed to the scene in response to radio mes sages from the blimps that the "enemy" had been located and hurled W dummy bombs of various sizes at ' the Iowa, registering two hits in the forecastle. Tho easo with which the air forces located the Iowa, knowing only that tho vessel was somewhere between Cape Hattcras and Cape Henlopen, a distance of about 215 miles, was a source of surprise to most of the Naval officers who witnessed the bombing and of gratification to the Army men. Weather conditions were ideal for the test, which was postponed yester day because of fog- At 8 a.m., the "rero hour," the Iowa was about mid way between Capes Hatteras and Hen lopen and 60 miles off shoTe, steaming diroctly toward tho coast. Accompany ing the Iowa were tho Ohio, the con trol ship, the battteshtpi Pennsylvania and Nevada, the transport Henderson, and a number of destroyers and mine sweepers, givinjf a more distinct im pression of a battle fleet as the vessels steamed toward shore. It was 9:57 when the observers on the Nevada sighted the first Army blii did. toe JJ . coming up rrom we irfinla espes, and 13 minutes laser the Army dirigible D- came into view. The blimps sent radio message to the air force commander on the u.p.m. 8hawmut off Cape Charles, to Langley Field and Cape May, Delaware,, wncre th airplane bombing groups' were sta tioned. A few minutes after the diri gibles located the Iowa, two F 5 L planes, scouting down rrom the leia- are capes, sigutea the utrgei ana wirelessed the vessel's position. The first bombing planes, a division of F-5-L, arrived on the scene at 11 :25 and dropped two concrete bombs at the Iowa, one landing within 200 feet of the vessel's bows and the other about an equal distance to ono side- The planes eireled round and round the vessel,' dropping bombs on each trip, and were shortly joined by other divis ions until more than twenty planes had attacked.

(By the Associated Press) The administration permanent tariff bill was introduced today the House of Representa tives and for the first time wa made public. No explanatory statements arrnmnanipfl tha intrntnKnn , i the measure as heretofore has been customary and no' official estimate was made ot the revenue it is expected to return. To Yield 704 Millions 1'noflinal estimates bv the ways and means committee, himever, placed the expected return as high as seven hun dred million year. Th I'avn. 1M. rich law in tho normal pre war year produced a little, more than three hun dred million dollars a veitr. Kxaminntion of the bill, which cov ers M(S printed pages, shows thst in some cases the rntes pronosed are hiirh- er than corresponding rotes of the Payne Afdfich law, white others are liwe r. An estimate of how the whole bill compares with the Payne Aldrich law would be possible only by tariff ei- pert making a detailed study, beeauss the schedule of .he new hill an In many rases not framed in parallel with the schedules of the Payne Aldrich law, but art differently constructed. ' Rmla Tariff flat I In comparison sjitli the Underwood " tariff law of the Wilson administra tion, tho new bill removes many articles from the free list, although 'it leave large list free of duty, including print paper, wood pulp, leather and harness, and agricultural implements, raises the duties on the great bulk of imports already being taxed. It has made no notable Additions to the free list. Comparison of the wool schedule with Schedulo K of the Psyne Aldrich biff, over wlncli a bitter fight was waged in Congress, showed material reductions in a miuiber of instances. In the items of hose and gloves the duty fixed by the committee was 30c a pound and 25 per cont ad valorem duty in addition. while in the Payne Aldrich bill the rate waa 44c. a pound and 60 per cent ad valorem. Clothing, aa fixed in the bill, carries 20c, a pound and 35 per cent, as against 44c. a pound and 60 per cent in the Payne measure. 1 tie same degree of si ading was made by roe committee in knit fabrics at 2jo a pound and 20 per cent ad valorem, against the former Republican rate of ,t.l tn 44 cents a pound and 50 to 55 per cent ad valorem. Wool Rate Lower Republican members of tho commit tee, refusing heretofore to give any intimation as to the exact provision of the measure, declared today that th rates on wool were much below the Payne-Aldrich schedule. Democratic members of the committee did not get access to the bill until late today and they were at work tonight in an effort to find out just how it compared. In tho rush to get the bill to the House, the committee had "no time to submit a report, but itT'i subject to change, it was snid by a Republicsa caucus. Only a few changes were made at the meeting today, the most impor tant being a turn about on the question of oil. After voting down last week a proposal to tax crude petroleum, the eomitiitue, at th eleveath hour, put n tax of X) cents a barrel on crude and 2.1 cents a barrel on fuel oil. The lumber schedule, as originally drawn, waa rut to pieces last night bf the committee, which finally heeded the appeal of liepublicaaa to hav isishod lumber kept on the free list. Shingles however, were taxed in the lumber schedule, but many other Heme ware) Dot. There was no lumber schedule by name, the numerical system being fol lowed. ' Retaliatory Tariffs In deciding to drop the retaliatory tariff proposal, the eommittee provide! in the bill that if any country imposed a duty on any of the free list lumber exported from the United State, the) President might enter into negotiations with it to obtain removal of tho tax, and failing ia his efforts, would be ens powered to declare qnl- rate en the product imported from such country. ' Most of the talk around the Capitol in the last week has been over lumber, which was expected to be the real bone of contention nt the drat party caucus. But the leaders in the light to have ft remain on the free list -indicated that such other differences as might exist on tho snbject would be adjusted.
