Of the country against the attempt 70

nish conclusive evidence that the plae-
ing Of sugar On the free list was not
contemplated as q possibility by the
great majority of those who supported
the party ticket in the last campaign
The effect of this, seems to be to
state that the revolt Of Che Demo-
cratic voters in these states furnished
conclusive evidence that il was not
contemplated as Q possibility by the
great majority Of those who supported

/ does not seem to say anything about
an issue at all.
! The Chairman. One other question,
I I understood you to say to Senator
| Walsh that before this mat was. pub
lished and these advertisements q
! number Of the advertisements were
sent over to some board in New York
for these Advertisements to be passed
upon. Did ! understand you correctly?
Mr.. Carter. No. senator. can per-
! haps explain the thing These adyer-
Easements haze been appearing from
time to time. J. The material which
they contain would be sent on to New
York and submitted to the expert to
be arranged-for the typographical
arrangement and the kind of typec-7
land the method and the. material
would be submitted to these, gentle
} men in, New York so that they could
understand about it.
The Chairman. You mean to be
censored?
/ Mr.. Carter. Yes: in a, measure.
Working In cooperation with them.
The Chairman. They were sent to
them for that purpose--to be CEN
sored? 3.
Mr.. Carter. Not entirely to be CEN
sored-
! The Chairman. That was part Of
their work?
| Mr.. Carter. To be checked up for
rus. -
The Chairman. Then, If there were
any statements that were not true,
they would cut them out and not pub
lish them?
/ Mr.. Carter. That was one of the
i purposes.
The Chairman. Then understand
you to say that some advertisements
]. were not published in this pamphletg
4 Mr.. Carter. / am not sure Of that
]. I think there were some suggestions
that were sent up that were not
acceptable to the gentlemen in New
York.
TIE Chairma1, that being true,
some stateEneAts that you sent out
were not trtlea Z,
/ Mr., Carter No; not at all. l do
not follow that. said they we're not
! acceptable. ~ 81.
/ The Chairman. They were not ac-
Iceptable?
Mr.. Carter. Yes.
! The Chairman. Why not accept.
J able?
Mr.. Carter Perhaps because they
trended on phase of the subject that
they did not think advisable to follow
I, that might hurt some of our own
interests. For instance, Hawaiian In
terests differ from those of the beet
sugar producers and the Louisiana
sugar producers. We did not want to
put in advertisements that would hurt
those working with US.
| The Chairman. But you said those
advertisements were published in con.
cert between the beet sugar producers
and the Louisiana sugar producers
and you?
| Mr.. Carter No.. you misunder.
stood me, then. So far as those ad.
vertisements were concerned, we pre-.
pared those, that is our contribution,
and with their consent that we would
prepare such advertisements and pay
for them; and these have been ap.
pearing from time to time, and when
we decided to publish it in pamphlet
form we went to New York for the
mats. Now, these others can give you
better detailed Information.
! The Chairman. The fact is that
some of these advertisements were
not published in this circular?
Mr.. Carter. No, no; all the adver
tisements that were published are in
cluded in there, except one which was
left out by mistake
i Senator Cummins Before the adj
vertisements were put in they were
supervised by these people in New
York?
Mr.. Carter. Yes. We sent the sub
stance to New York before we adyer
tised.
4 The Chairman. Does this include
IAN the Advertisements you sent t.
| New York and published in the pa
ipers?
4 Mr.. Carter. All except one that wa.
left out by mistake. We are goin,
on publishing, you know.
The Chairman. Was that one. lief
out by mistake--the one read?
Mr.. Carter. IT is No. % that wa
left out, believe.
The Chairman. The one that rea,
: here is not in the pamphlet. / do no
: see it.
Mr.. Carter. That has been publish
ed since that pamphlet was printed.
