Sugar Tariff Fight Survives Senate Vote
The Senate kept the sugar duty increase and cement tariff in the Hawley Smoot bill amid a heated session. The sugar rate rises to 2 cents a pound on Cuban sugar, with cement duties at 6 cents a hundred pounds, while the House sought 8 cents. Senator Blaine urged summoning Herbert Grant of the Mormon Church for questioning, a move resisted by Senator Smoot who argued the visit was for a boy scout event. No decision on Blaine’s lobby request was reached.
