tho (onimlttoo today that tho roclproc-1
Ity treaty with Ciiln. liy whleh IIh
pinducts enjoy a 20 por cent dlrferon
tint In tho sugar duties, expires next
month. Ho produced two cablegrams
from Cuban sugar and tobacco giowcrn
asking tho commltteo In defer action
nn these articles. Atkins urged that
tho tariff on sugir bo reduced und that
Cuba be given tho existing differential
mi this lower rate.
Would Reduce Price
Representative Champ Clark of Mis
souri asked ATkIiis:
"If j on get tho reduction In tariff on
sugar that ou seek, would tliero bo

"Tliero would ho a reduction In tho
retail price of about half a cent, I
should bay," was tho reply.
"How do ou know that tho Biignr
trust won't grub up that half cont?"
"If they could I would Join them."
An advocate for the free entry of
sugar was C. A. SpriclfelsMpreBldc'nt of
the Kcdernl Sugar Refining company,

formerly connected with tho American

that 23 per cent of the sugar beets

company, needs no tariff protection,
was asserted by Sprockets. He ad
mitted that he had bought sugar lands

tho Island would some tlmo become
