c. 0. P. TARIFF
TO Be TRIMMED
Senate Leaders Agree to Cut the
Schedules to Secure
Passage.
INCREASED OPPOSITION CITED
Upper Chamber Will Accept House
Plan to Speed Up Legislation and
Get Measure lover the Top"
Before November.

Washington, Au~. SIN a concerted
effort to insure the enactment of pro
tective" tariff legislation before No
vember congressional elections, Re-
publican leaders planned to abandon
the high rates in the pending senate
bill when it reaches conference and
revert to the lower ones in the house
measure.
Senator Smoot of Utah was among
those convinced that the pending bill
cannot become a law.
The increasing opposition the SEN
ate bin has encountered within the
Republican party alone, has convinced
some of the most influential Republic
an leaders Of the upper chamber it
probably would be better not to have
a bill at all before November than to
force the senate measure through to
final passage
While the pending bill will be
passed by the senate under the pres
ent unanimous consent agreement re-
stricting debate, probably within three
weeks, 1t is expected to emerge from
conference subsequently in a shape
far more resembling the house bill
than the one written by the Republic
an majority in control of the senate
finance committee.
Hope to Stop Criticism.
BY going back to the house bill, Re
publican senator's are of the opinion
that an agreement can be reached be-
tween the tariff Republicans of the
senate and which will appease the
wrath of the Republican critics of the
pending measure, at the same time
satisfy those clements who want the
party's tariff pledge fulfilled
Two attempts made by Senator Har-
rison Dem.) of Mississippi to get SEN
ate action on his resolution proposing
an investigation of an alleged sugar
syndicate were defeated on objections
raised by Senator Smoot.
The syndicate, it was charged, was
formed to raise a tax Of S14,000,000
on the Cuban sugar crop for payment
to American sugar growers in lieu of
a high tariff rate.
Seven Firms Named.
The seven refining groups, whom
Smoot charged with being responsible
for war among sugar producers, were
listed as follows:
The American Sugar Refining COM
pany, w. j. MacNahan Refining and
Molasses company, the National
Sugar Refining company, the Pennsyl-
vania Sugar Refining company, the
Revere Sugar Refining company, the
Warner Sugar Refining company and
the Independent Producers of the
United States Refining company.
