1t will be recalled that Mr.. Izzitt

Senator Grows Sarcastic at
Expense of Democrats

WASHINGTON. Aug. 1s.--That the
new tariff law is not likely 10 reduce
the prices of farm products. notwith-
standing that the rates on many have
been cut was acknowledged today by
Senator John Sharp Williams who
had charge of the debate on the bill
for the Democrats today. ~
Senator Gronna, of North Dakota,
had complained that fifteen important
products OF the farm had been free
listed In the bill. to the great disad-
vantage OF the American farmer;
that tho treasury department. will lose
approximately s2h,0oo.000 In revenue,
while Canada would be greatly bene-
flied by the admission OF her pro-
ducts to the American market. II
was to this complaint that Senator
Williams expressed the opinion that
present prices would not go lower on
these products OF the farm.
VIII Not BE Lower.
81 do not mean that the prices will
not be lower than they would have
been If we had not put the articles on
the free list said Mr.. Williams.
What / mean Is that extraneous con-
ditions are at work that will keep
prices up for considerable time to
come. l would not be surprised II
present prices go higher in the fu-
ture."
Senator Gallinger said this would
be disappointment to the people In
New England, who had been told by
the Democratic orators that the cost
OF living would be reduced.
Senator williams replied that II
would be reduced on clothing. steel
products and many other articles that
enter into the daily cost OF living. He
said the farmer would get cheaper

While 1t was known that the

at the office of the Permanent Expo

II was said in some quarters that

some surprise this week when Queen
Mary. instead of accompanying King

Hotel Butter and Coffee.

The butter served in hotels costs
more per guest than the coffee. This
is an easily proved statement. for
with butter costing so cents or more
a pound, and with 80 pats to the
pound each pat OF butter served costs
the hotel at least q cent and a half
for each pat.
Coffee generally averages 30 cups
to the pound, and few hotels are pay
ing today. with coffee at its highest
price In so years, more than 80 cents
and most Of them not over ~ or %
cents pound. while some restaurants
are serving coffee at still lower fig

She saw everyone who wanted to see

And when they had no writing gift,

woman who had brought her poor lit
