POSSIBILITIES IN
RECONCILIATION.

The Senate has at last concluded
its debates on the tariff measure.'
Some effective leadership, follow-
ing the breakdown of the progres-
sive Republican-Democratic coali-
tion, has brought the more of less
aimless discussions and diversions
to a close.
The thought is consoling, inas-
much as highly important legisla-
tion (principally the appropriation
bill) was in danger of being retard-
ed with serious consequences. How-
ever, legislative work on the tariff
bill was not ended, for the bill must
now go to the Conference commit-
tee of House and Senate delegates,
where the conflicting proposals of
the two houses must be reconciled.
There are more than a thousand
differences in the rates set by the
two houses. In addition, there are
highly disputed administrative
matters, the flexible rate provision,
in which the House favors Presi-
dential authority over limited
changes as the occasions arise, and
the Senate substitute, the Norris
anti-trust amendment, to permit
decreasing the tariff on industries
which become monopolized. Also,
ihere is the export debenture plan,
stricken from the farm relief bill,
but later tacked onto the tariff
measure by the Senate.
The fate of the tariff in the Con-
ference committee is problematical.j
The House can be expected to gainj
most, however. It will present a
more concerted front, its Speaker,
Nicholas Longworth is capable of
effecting a stronger leadership, and
three of the Senate delegates are
full-fledged Republicans, who prob-
ably favor the executive authority
over flexible rates, oppose the de-
bentura plan, and favor generally
the high industrial rates agreed to
by the House.
Predictions indicate that the
compromising in the Conference
committee will be extensive and
bitter. But should the Republicans
nf the two hnses conmhine (which

art? Tsch! Tsch! '
It is the rapturous labelling of
such trifles as art, their popularity
on campus, that drives other or-
ganizations to use other trifles,
(such as The Show Off and In Love
With Love) in order to keep in the
running for existance.
If Professor Thorpe really be-
lieves it was all a "gorgeous dream"I
then to be consistent, he must go
into spasms of ecsacy over Rio
Rita and The Desert Song, both the
high ideals which State Street in a
humble way tries to reach.
And if Mr. Henderson is correct
in his premise that the "Rather
rare beauty of the ladies of the en-
semble . . . and the infectious sense
of the theatre, the disarming and
very smart sense of gaiety that
permeates the production" are
"Outstanding virtues," then there

CONFESSION.I
Dear Joe: My fraternity was
one of those advertised by :the
Washtenaw Trib. Well, it at least
shows that we're only occasional
imbibers, and don't have a stock
continuously on hand, as do those
houses that make their own, and
whose members flag into their 81
o'clock flaunting the haunting odor
of homebrew. Let's hope they don't
pick up the sorority bootlegger and
expose her record-that WOULD
be embarrassing to the dear cis-
tern!

tionable. The variations in the
slow movement were somewhat too,
simply played, full justice to the
harmonic richness of Brahms be- f
ing sacrificed to the formula for
smoothness of ensemble. Unques-
tionably Giorni did not do justice
to Brahms' brilliant writing for pi-
ano in the scherzo which consti- I
tutes its main interest; he was shy
and in the background and one
had to strain to hear the part.
The Juon Caprice, diffuse ro-
manticism quite conventional and {
uninteresting except for momen-
tary flrtations with the modern
idiom, was played with adequate
vigor and rhythmic precision.
This concert closed the wholly
enjoyable series sponsored by the:
Chamber Music Society and it was
announced last night that continu-
ation next year depends on enthu-:
