TARIFF UPLIFT
 ON POST CARDS
Especial from United Press.A

Special from United PressA
 washington. June 1.-The tariff up- lift was applied by the Senate today to the picture postcard business of the United States. A large majority of the cards now sold in this country are made in Germany The business was unknown when the Dingley bill was created and as a result the Germans got a favorable rate for their cards under the classification of Photographic prints. Since that time the business has grown to mammoth proportions and the lithographers of this country overwhelmed Congress for an increase in the tariff so that they could get a larger part of the postcard trade. When the matter came up the duty of 15 cents a pound. was; reduced to cents. In the paragraph adopted to- day the rate on foreign made post cards is 6 to Is cents a pound and 20 per cent ad valorem.
 "It is an increase of S25 per cent. admitted Senator Smoot, of the F'i- nance committee, 'but nothing less would save the business for American lithographers."
 The Senate adopted paragraph 40s which related to various Photographic articles with a number of changes.
