An appeal for Mich a slogan has ben
sounded by the Welfare Federation of
Philadelphia, the new organization that
will consolidate many of the charity and
social service associations in one agency,
and which is preparing for Its first an

The slogan must be in the hands of

ment. The sloean must visualize the follow
ing points :
First. By putting on one great ap
peal each year, there will be eliminated
the multiplicity of Individual appeals.
Second. The annoyances of multiplied
campaigns will be removed.
Third. Ihe economies effected by n
central money -raising effort will re
place much waste and duplication of
effort, time and funds.
Fourth. Tlu present 2 per cent of
the population of Philadelphia should
bo Increawl to a point nearer the 20
per cent of the population of Buffalo,
which, under the one-camDairn-a-
j ear plan, supports that city's charities.

OIL SCHEDULE HI

Treadway Amendment, Provid

ject of Debate
FINAL VOTE ON THURSDAY
Ily (lie Associated l'res
WaslihiRton, .Tilly IS. The House
resumed today consideration of the pro
posed oil tax in (lie Fordney tariff bill
and, by a vote of IV5 to -10. fixed n
limit of three and one-hnlf hours for
'debate. Discussion centered around the
Treadway nmendmeut. Introduced Sat
urday, which would tronsfer crude and
fuel oils from the dutiable to the free
list.
The vote might come at 2:30 P. M.,
Washington time, but there was demand
for n longer period for riebntc. It ap
np
ilgh
pen red possible thnt an extension m
be arranged later.
Leaders on the N nys nnd Means
Committee were seeking to get the oil
tax out of the way by mid-afternoon.
I'lider the special rule governing con
sideration of the Tariff Bill, a final vote
Is due late Thursday. In the mean
time, however, the House has to dis
pose of the oil question and take sep
arate voles on raw cotton and naphait.
Whether cotton should be transferred
to the dutiable list presents another
problem likelv to bring a stormv session,
nnd lenders said it probably would be a
repetition of the tight for n duty on
hides.
Consideration of the Tariff mil thus
far hns been in Committee of the
Whole House, and therefore, before the
final vote on the bill Is taken, it Is
possible for the membership to vote
again on the five contested schedules;
hides, dyes, oil. cotton nnd asphnlt.
For the reason that another vote can
be had. opponents of the dye embargo
provisions as well as those opposed to
a duty on hides have hljh hopes of
forcing the House to reverse Its pre
vious nctlon.

LEAGUE MAY CURB
MAKING OF ARMS
Sub-Commlselon Sees Necessity
for Ratification of Pact
Restricting Sales
U. S. BLAMED FOR DELAY
Ity the Associated Pre
Paris. July 18. Disarmament was dis
cussed today by tho subcommlsslon of
the temporary mixed c6mmlsslon for the
reduction of armaments, appointed by
the Leaguo of Nations, which began
sessions here Saturdny. The sub-corn
mission's sessions were private. They
will continue until it hns framed re
ports for the full commission.
The first question taken up today
was that of traffic In arms. The sub-
commission decided thnt one of the first
cssentlnls In this connection was to se
cure ratification of the convention
signed at St. Germain at the same time
as the Austrian peace treaty, prohibit
ing the sale of arms in Africa nnd
other places where such soles would be
likely to encourngo trouble.
Ratification by European Powers of
this convention is declared by mem
bers of the commission to have been
delayed becnuse the United States failed
to ratify It.
The sub-commission nlso discussed the
private manufacture of arms, xvhich is
attended by many dnngers, nnd looked
Into ways ond means of controlling
such manufacturers.
Another sub-cominlssion, presided
over by Reno Vivianl, ex-Premier of
France, took up the question of control
of armaments by mutual agreement.
Leon Johaux, labor representative from
France, offered his proposed amend
ment to the League of Nations cove
nant, covering this point, as the first
subject of discussion. The sub-commis
sion xvlll decide later whether to report
this amendment as one to bo considered
by the assembly of the league.
