PUBLIC INTEREST
STIRS REP. SENATORS
Washington, July $17.—Early this
week It was stated that the proposal
to postpone consideration of the tariff
bill indefinitely had not received any
support among Reptfhlican senators,
That staatement Is true no longer.
A few regulation party senators
have turned a kindly deaf ear to the
suggestion. The number is small and
it still is a fact there is no' probability
whatever of this suggestion being acted upon.
The attitude of nine out of ten of
the Republican senators is that, having gone so far with the tariff bill,
they should go on tho end, and that, to
stop now would make the whole tariff
performance seem so futile it would
add greatly to the adverse judgment
from which congress and the party already are suffering.
Pressure AreadJ Felt
What is likely to happen is that a
group of so-called "middle-of-the-road"
Republican senators will cause considerable reductions in the existing
schedules and otherja'se make the bill
more acceptable to the country.
From now %on a steady and successful pressure by this group to meke
rates lower may be expected. As a result the bill will be pushed to a vote
rapidly.
This is the first response of the senate to interest shown by the public in
the tariff. Until recently the best
response of the country has been indifference,
In past years rarely has the public
shown interest in the tariff until the
wocl schedules are discussed. This is
difficult to explain. In the present debate it will be days yet before wool is
reached.
CAUSE MUCH DELAY
The bill is not ready for a vote. The
Democrats, who still have a good deal
to say, cannot be charged with being
dilatory. Republican alone have been
responsible for delay.
Chairman Fordney and Republican
ways and means committeemen began
hearings Jan. 1, 1.21. The bill first
was reported Into the house July 6,
1921. Thereafter the actual passage
was fairly -speedy. Senate -Republicans of the finance committee passed
more than eight months rewriting it.

HUBAM CLOVER
PROVEN WORTH
9 SENATORS FOR
WAYNE COUNTY
That Is, if Sec. Alward's
Plan For Rearranging
District 'Carries
Lansing, Mich., July 15,—Secretary
Dennis E. Alward, of the State Senate
who is also secretary of the Republican State Central Committee, has
worked out three tentative plans for
rearranging the 32 senatorial districts
as the constitution requires must be
done at next winter's legislative session. Other plans, as a matter of
course,' will bo submitted. Secretary
Alward is not recommending his plans
but makes them so as to start discussion of the problem which,is that if
Wayne County, under the new apportionment, is given the number of senators to which her population entitles
her, she will have nine members
where she now has five. If given
four more, then the number for the
rest of the state must be reduced by
four, for the constitution limits the
total number of senators to 32.
Based on 1920 Census
The apportionment must be made
with the 1920 Federal census as a
basis. This census showed Michigan's population to be 3,667,222. So
tlie basis for a senatorial district is
114,600. Secretary's Alward's plans
show that to give Wayne County nine
senators would be allowing her but
one for each 130,850 population, and
130,850 is more than 16,000 above the
ratio. If given eight, Wayne's ratio
would be still higher.
The upper peninsular, with three
senators, would have one for each
110,460 population; and Kent Countyy
if continuing to have two, a senator
on a basis of 91,520 population. Genesee, with a population of 125,668,
would be a district where it is now a
part of one. Saginaw County is how
a district by itself, though its population in 1920 was a little more than
14,000 below the present ratio of
114,600. Secretary Alward's plans
would continue Saginaw as a separate
district.
As It Works Out
Conceding nine to Wayne, three to
th.5-uppfei* --peninsular, Wo to1-• Kent,"*'tb-r.-aa_*---_f.*.H.,
one to Genesee and one to Saginaw.
Secretary Alward shows that the
other 16 districts in numerical order
and the population of each would be:

U- S. AID ASKED
BY DRUG FIENDS
Addicts in Tragic Letters
Plea,d For Government
Investigation
Washington, July 15.—Many drug'
.tide'icts among tlie 2,000,000 in America, are appealing for a Congressional
investigation of the narcotic drug sit-
uation.
They hope such an investigation
will remedy apparent defects in present regulatory legislation and will
lead to governmental research to find
a scientific cure for drug addiction.
Addicts are writing Rep, Lester D.
.Volk, who is leading the fight for
the_ investigation, prayerful letters
telling of their own tragedies and urging action.
"Contrast these letters," says Volk,
himself a physician, "with the statements which have lately come from
■jaritfhigh officials in which they say that
in all cases they can effect a cure;
that they will wipe out within six
months all cases of addiction; "that
the dru_r problem of the United States
is already solved. Ignorance of the
facts is inexcusable,
Rop. Volk gave out the following as
typical letters:

"AU that has ever been done for

IS CLARE TO HAVE
A CANNING FACTORY
Is Clare to have a canning factory
or is it not? This is a question for the
people of Clare and vicinity to settle
themselves. In justice to the officers
of the Great Northern Canning; Company some action should be taken at
once. Last Wednesday, evening the
chairman of the Chamber of Commerce
appointed a committee to investigate
the condition of the affairs of the old
United Breeders Association and interview the old stockholders in view of a
settlement. Up to the present time
no action ha§ been taken. The Mayor
is doing everything possible to
straighten up this affair, but is meeting with mighty poor support.

PUBLIC INTEREST STIRS REP. SENATORS Washington, July $17.—Early this week It was stated that the proposal to postpone consideration of the tariff bill indefinitely had not received any support among Reptfhlican senators, That staatement Is true no longer. A few regulation party senators have turned a kindly deaf ear to the suggestion. The number is small and it still is a fact there is no' probability whatever of this suggestion being acted upon. The attitude of nine out of ten of the Republican senators is that, having gone so far with the tariff bill, they should go on tho end, and that, to stop now would make the whole tariff performance seem so futile it would add greatly to the adverse judgment from which congress and the party already are suffering. Pressure AreadJ Felt What is likely to happen is that a group of so-called "middle-of-the-road" Republican senators will cause considerable reductions in the existing schedules and otherja'se make the bill more acceptable to the country. From now %on a steady and successful pressure by this group to meke rates lower may be expected. As a result the bill will be pushed to a vote rapidly. This is the first response of the senate to interest shown by the public in the tariff. Until recently the best response of the country has been indifference, In past years rarely has the public shown interest in the tariff until the wocl schedules are discussed. This is difficult to explain. In the present debate it will be days yet before wool is reached. CAUSE MUCH DELAY The bill is not ready for a vote. The Democrats, who still have a good deal to say, cannot be charged with being dilatory. Republican alone have been responsible for delay. Chairman Fordney and Republican ways and means committeemen began hearings Jan. 1, 1.21. The bill first was reported Into the house July 6, 1921. Thereafter the actual passage was fairly -speedy. Senate -Republicans of the finance committee passed more than eight months rewriting it.

Alward's Plan For Rearranging District 'Carries Lansing, Mich., July 15,—Secretary Dennis E. Alward, of the State Senate who is also secretary of the Republican State Central Committee, has worked out three tentative plans for rearranging the 32 senatorial districts as the constitution requires must be done at next winter's legislative session. Other plans, as a matter of course,' will bo submitted. Secretary Alward is not recommending his plans but makes them so as to start discussion of the problem which,is that if Wayne County, under the new apportionment, is given the number of senators to which her population entitles her, she will have nine members where she now has five. If given four more, then the number for the rest of the state must be reduced by four, for the constitution limits the total number of senators to 32. Based on 1920 Census The apportionment must be made with the 1920 Federal census as a basis. This census showed Michigan's population to be 3,667,222. So tlie basis for a senatorial district is 114,600. Secretary's Alward's plans show that to give Wayne County nine senators would be allowing her but one for each 130,850 population, and 130,850 is more than 16,000 above the ratio. If given eight, Wayne's ratio would be still higher. The upper peninsular, with three senators, would have one for each 110,460 population; and Kent Countyy if continuing to have two, a senator on a basis of 91,520 population. Genesee, with a population of 125,668, would be a district where it is now a part of one. Saginaw County is how a district by itself, though its population in 1920 was a little more than 14,000 below the present ratio of 114,600. Secretary Alward's plans would continue Saginaw as a separate district. As It Works Out Conceding nine to Wayne, three to th.5-uppfei* --peninsular, Wo to1-• Kent"*'tb-r.-aa_*---_f.*.H., one to Genesee and one to Saginaw. Secretary Alward shows that the other 16 districts in numerical order and the population of each would be: 17—Washtenaw, Jackson 122,059 It has been A fy*$ gatlonal G.iht.Saeie nual picnic^-"'}*-';.
