Al Jennings decision to keep Jack Delaney out of Harry Grebs way for at least a year is a wise one. Greb, who is rated as a faster man than Champion Jack Dempsey in the ring today it is figured by experts, will be about ready to tackle the titleh old CT in about that time. If these opin- ions are correct it will be good policy not to steer Delaney into the ring against the Pittsburgh light heavy weight for more than one years time. There will be no scarcity of good men for Delaney to tackle without going out of his class in the mean time.

TARIFF ON SUGAR
GIVEN INCREASE

Washing ON, Aug. S.-The senate
approved today an increase of three
tenths of cent u pound in the tariff
on sugar; rejected plan for the
government bounty of $9,500,000 fol
domestic potash producers and re-
scinded its former action in voting an
impost of two cents a pound on white
arsenic. Potash and white arsenic
were placed on the free list.
The sugar rate of 2.3 cents O pound
was a compromise between the 2.J
cents duty urged by Louisiana cane
and Western beet sugar producers
and the cents proposed by the house
and approved by the finance commit
tee majority. 1t is three e-tenths of a
cent above the tariff in the existing
emergency act and LOS cents above
that in the Underwood act.
The compromise was offered by
Senator Smoot of Utah, ranking Re-
publican on the finance committee,
and was accepted by the same vote
that the senate rejected the 2.5 cents
duty, 81 to G5. Democrats who voted
for the Smoot amendment were:
Broussard and Jones Of N,w Mexico,
Kendrick and kunsdell, while those
q who voted against The amendment
included Dial, Fletcher, Overman,

dell.
Before considering the bounty, the
senate voted, G6 to 1, to strike out
the provision by which Il tariff duty
would have been imposed on potash
for five years at the same rates that
it was proposed to pay the bounty.
The vote to place white arsenic on
the free list was 20 TO %, with ten
Republicans opposing the duty and
one Democrat, Kcndrick # Wyoming,
supporting it.
Because of the operation of the 20
per cent tariff differential allowed
to Cuba the 23 cents rate on sugar
would wolk cut at 1.S4 cents pound
on sugar from that country, which

The Republican agricultural tariff

because they foresee that the plan

would not be justified 6y, what might
be G lined financially.
This developed today during the

hope to be able to draft their report
for submission to the conference III

is merely to study the proposal with
regard to its. applicability and its
probable yield, without passing judg-
