CHAIRMAN UNDERWOOD Of the Ways
and Means Committee was interrupted
in his speech against the sugar tax by a
Louisiana member, who inquired Of Mr..
Underwood what he anticipated, would
happen to the sugar industry in Louisi-
ana if the tax was removed from sugar.
Mr.. Underwood replied frankly that he
did not know what would happen 10 the
sugar industry OF that state, but hoped
il would survive, as il had done on pre-
vious occasions. He added there was
one thing he did know, however, and
that was that the total production Of
sugar in Louisiana was less than one
tenth Of the entire sugar consumption
in the United States, and that he did
not believe in the principle Of taxing
80. OOO. 900 American citizens in order
that a comparative few sugar producers
might make an extra profit.

ayers Of both the Democratic and Repu-
blican parties. Mr.. Hardwick, Of
Georgia, replied. He said that what
Mr.. Kinds stated was true, but that the
same book also showed that the check
which had been sent to the Democratic
campaign headquarters had been return

the Republicans had been cashed and
