Work of Congress Condensed Record of National Lawmakers
Washington July 26 reports outline a four point compromise approved by the president increasing sugar duties while maintaining the bounty for a year and adding a reciprocity clause to the coal schedule. Senators Vilas Gorman and others spoke as caucus efforts aimed at party harmony over tariff legislation. Votes on conference instructions and sugar differential dominated debate as lawmakers signaled confidence in a forthcoming agreement. Washington July 27 28 describe scenes in the Senate over instruction to recede from sugar and refine sugar duties, with Manderson and Harris arguing precedents. The House adjourned with dull activity as conference reports and sundry civil appropriations loomed for the week.
