Obituary notes and tariff debate in Washington June 28 1989
An item notes obituary notices printed free up to one hundred words and paid ads beyond that, then shifts to a Washington tariff debate.

Senator Bacon advocates lower duties to boost treasury by tens of millions over ten years, arguing long staple cotton used in high-grade goods justifies revenue gains.
