DEBENTURE ROW
APPEARS SURE
Conferees To Meet Mon
day In Effort to Adjust
Differences
WASHINGTON. May 18.—OPi—
Another roll call in the senate over
the export debenture provision put
into its farm bill over the objec
tion of President Hoover tonight to
be inevitable with a deadlock in
sight between senate and house con
ferees over the proposition.
The conferees will meet Monday
in an attempt to adjust the con
flicting views of the senate and
house. The debentures section is
the main point of contention and a
Jong drawn-out argument appears
certain. While three of the five
senate conferees voted against ex
pert debentures, they are bound to
support this controverted proposal
in conference with house members.
The export debenture plan was
put in by the senate by a vote of
47 to 44, with democrats lining up
almost solidly for it and 13 repub
lican independents joining them.
Under the rules, the senate will
have to act first on the conference
report returned by hte conferees.
There are indications that some of
those who voted for the export de
benture in the senate may shift
their drive for this principle from
the farm relief measure to the tariff
bill, thus permitting the farm relief
legislation to become a law.
GARNER PLANS
TARIFF FIGHT
Sliding Scale on Sugar To
Be Proposed If Oppor
tunity Appears
WASHINGTON. May 18—<AV
The house took a day off today aft
er eight days of debate on the
tariff bill, but farm state republic
ans continued to plead for higher
duties on agricultural products be
fore the ways and means commit
tee republicans in executive session.
Representative Garner of Texas,
minority leader, announced that If
opportunity arose he would propose
an amendment to the sugar sched
ule providing a sliding scale of du
ties instead of the 3.40 cents a pound
on Cuban raw sugar carried in the
bill. The present rate is 1.76 cents.
Under Gamer’s proposal which
may be offered on the floor only in
event the republicans decide to open
the sugar schedule for amendment,
the highest duties would be effec
tive after the New York price, minus
duty, had dropped to a low point.
The rates would be less as the price
increased and after it reached 5
cents a pound, no tariff at all would
i be collected.
The Texan said he understood his
proposed rates were not acceptable
to the “sugar peoplebut appeared
to him to be a “fair, just, and equi
table solution of the problem.”
The idea of a sliding scale sugar I
tariff is understood to be receiving
some study from advisors of Presi
.mm mm - .I aa
dent Hoover, who hmm tndteusHi
disapproval of the rates carried ta
the bllL
Meanwhile, tha spokesman for a
group of members from 10 western
states. Representative Dickinson, re
publican. Iowa, expressed belief that
duties would be obtained on bides
and Tapioca, now on the tree list
and said he thought the chances
were good for obtaining higher rates
on live cattle, casein and. dried milk.
Representative Woodruff, repub
lican, Michigan, and Brand, repub
lican. Ohio, urged higher duties on
dried beans, potatoes and aakms.
