Senate Republicans Back Spooner Cuban Reciprocity Plan
Republican senators on the Cuban relations committee agreed to accept the Spooner bill providing reciprocity with Cuba and planned a conference to discuss terms. The substitute for House Bill 450 lowers duties to nine percent if Cuba grants preferred U.S. access, with a five year limit and a required U.S. investigation into tangible benefits before any opening. Beet sugar interests fear resistance to any Cuba legislation and doubt passage this session, while reciprocity supporters push for a conference and possible treaty option.

Wood to stay at White House amid Cuban policy notes
General Leonard Wood will reside several weeks at the White House after moving from his initial apartment. He told a Post reporter there is nothing new about charges that the U.S. paid General Gomez for political reasons. Gomez is idolized by Cubans, and U.S. support is seen as protecting his standing in his declining years. No Cuban sugar duties treaty has been negotiated yet. Hay and Quesada may draft a sugar-only document quickly, but no treaty is expected while other measures exist.
