TRY SUGAR ALONE.
Democrat Leaders May Decide to Sc
gregate Schedules.

Washington, April Slow to steer
the new tariff bills through congress
is the question now confronting Demo-
crat administration leaders.
Early today the Democrats met in
caucus but Immediately adjourned to
await the message of President Will
son. After providing for working COM
mittees they will consider the tariff
bill as introduced by the ways and
means committee. The principal prob
lem confronting the house leaders who
are listening to members of the SEN
ate for the sake of harmony, is wheth-
er the bill should be reported in the
house in its entirety or schedule by
schedule.
Democratic senators who oppose the
sugar schedule with it's provision for
free sugar in three years objected to
consideration of the tariff as one bill
There was a probability today that
the house caucus might determine fin
ally to Segregate the sugar schedule,
taking up all the other schedules ana
the income tax as one bill. The i'm
position of a compensatory duty on
flour or the removal of all duty from
wheat will be one of the changes re-
commended in the new revision bill
by some senate Democrats, the plan
of the Underwood bill, to put flour on
the free list, while wheat retains a
duty of ten cents per buShel has been
attacked by senator's of both parties.

there are 500 picture show houses in

the film manufacturers and distributors
