This is one of the few issues com

no division between New Dealers and
old-fashioned conservative Democrats.
The tariff has for more than seventy
years been traditional major is

from the Democratic party.
In the days before the World war,
iwhen the United States was still a

For the first time in seven yean a

More than two hundred party lepden

committee. It dhubt^ will be chang

crops have been procorad with lighter
seedings but not often. A good way
to seed lespedeza is to run a drag
harrow over the grain field and then
broadcast the seed. It is not neoessary
to cover the seed.
^‘Lespedeza not only makes the best
of hay; it also fits into crop ro

and is one of .the best erosion contix^

The adminittration has been very
anxkms to 'have its authority contin-
prineipie hwt keeouic negotsaitions
with several nations have been sus
pended partly because of the uncer
tainty as to rwhether they can be car
ried through in the absence of re
newed congressional sanction.
' The action of the house is not, of
! course final. The senate ‘has still to
ddbate and vote upon the reciprocal
trade agreement program. There is
likely to he much more heated debate
in the senate and f<M* e stronger show
of opposition, tor two jeasons.
There is -the senate’s jealousy of
any infringement upon its pceroga-
tivs, for one thing. A considerable
munber of senators of both parties
have expressed the belief that these
trade agreements, negotiated by the
secretary of wtate; are actually noth
ing more or less than treaties wkh
fordgn governiments. The conatitution
provides that the executive most ob
tain the advice and consent of the
senate to make a binding treaty with
any other nation. Therefore, the sen-
tpte wants to have a finger in theaie
trade agreements, and seems quite
likely to get it.
Won’t Miss a Chance
Another reason why fireworks may
be expected when the measure comes
up in the senate is the fact that two
senators, Taft and Vandenberg, are
active candidates for the RepuUiean
presidenitaal nomination. It is har^y
to be expected that etiher of them,
or any one of the other Republican
I isenatort, is going to miss a chance to
I jgo on record im^opposit^ to a tariff
liprogram which depqjrtyfrom the tra
ditional policy- of their party.
The chances are, however, that the
I Democratic majority in the 'senate
,wiU follow the example of the lower
house and give Secretary Htdl what
he .wants. This it the more likely be
cause of the high esteem in 'which Mr.
Hull is hMd by practically all mem
bers of both wings of his party.
Major Campaign Issue
RepiMkiui leaders are antkipating
that the eodtensioo of what they rs-
gard as a low tariff pottey can be
come ont of their major campaign
issues. It is 'considered to have valu
able poUtkal ammunition for use in
going after the farm vote, ainoe moat
,of tbs iteraa upon which the trade
agreements aks^ effective or peod-
kig permit importation ab greatly re

sideraiibkm of its political effect in the
