Democrat List Spokesman Names of Countries as Retaliators. (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. - A de- mand for a revision of the month and a half old Hawley-Smoot tariff act was made today by Senator Swanson; Democrat, Virginia, who contended 17 countries already had retaliated against it and "universal depression in all lines of industry" had resulted from its adoption. In a statement issued through the Democratic national committee, the Virginia senator asserted "the best interests of the United States demand a revision of this vicious bill which is only beneficial to a very few special interests." Sees Further Depression "American agriculture will be further depressed if this tariff con- tinues and the markets of the world closed to the United States," he added. Foreign nations began "retaliat- ing" with higher tariffs while the bill was pending in congress, he continued. Since January 1, last, he said, Australia, France, Poland, Peru, Greece, Portugal, Finland, Canada, the union of South Africa, Germany, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Honduras, Chile, Cuba and Mexico had raised imports rates on more than a score of American commod- ities, principally automobiles, grains and food products. Blow to U. S. Trade Swanson saw in the recent Con- servative party victory in Canada a blow to American trade. Swanson said American exports reached the lowest monthly level for the past six years in June. He pointed to this as upholding the contention so often made in the tariff debates-that America's for- eign customers "are unable to pur- chase from us unless they can find somewhere a market for their com- modities."

(Special to The Daily) PATTERSON LAKE, Aug. 2.-En- tertainment of a total of 308 boys from the poorer section of Detroit will be completed this morning by the University Fresh Air camp when the boys of the third section, numbering 92, leave Lake Patter- son in two trucks and a bus for De- troit, where they are scheduled to arrive at noon. The students and instructors from Michigan, Illinois, Ohio uni- versity, and Oberlin college who make up the camp staff will be on leave from this morning until Mon- day morning, when the third sec- tion arrives. Some are accompany- ing the trucks to Detroit, some will spend two quiet days on the camp site, while others will be in Ann Arbor for a taste of "civilization" before returning to the life of noise, tan, and shorts and jerseys. Director Hornberger, instructor of English in the University, will stay at Patterson for the weekend to take charge of what details of preparation are necessary for the third section.

The request accompany- ing such publicity articles gives the publisher to understand that if he does not comply with the requests to insert the publicity matter in his publication, he may not expect display advertising. On the other hand, if he publishes the publicity matter as reading matter he may expect to be favored with display advertising.
