Congress in Quiet Session Two Deals on Lowe Case and Sugar Tax
In Washington on June 2 the House adjourned after a restrained day as Lowe versus Wheeler consumed little attention while debate elsewhere touched on the Sugar Tax and prospects of reform. Speaker Keifer plans to call Carlisle duty bill next week with a Dunnell recognition if contests permit. Protests target Robert P Porter as tariff commission pick amid fears of a protectionist packing.
