duction in orr tariff affect an Ameri-

o the beet sugar industry it will be
answered when the National Associ-
ton of Beet Growers meet in Wash
ington in January. The treaty must be
ratified before January s. Its life has
been limited

pense of others. Such policy would
bring about war among the American
industries

suspicion that Germany is proc5 5eding
against Venezuela largely to assault
the doctrine. Many army and navy
officers believe that serious trouble
with Germany is brewing, and anxiety
over the Venezuelan complication is
in no ways reduced.
