TARIFF THE ooAr

Sugar is selling around $40 a
rcd and the tariff is blamed
for price. As a matter OF fact, the
tariff is playing no part In the pre-
sent cost to the consumer but 1t is
saving him hundreds OF millions a
year In taxes which the foreign pro.
duet must pay into this country.
When sugar goes UP to q point
where the foreigner could knock
off his tariff and still sell sugar at
a profit, it is no protection to the
beet sugar industry against price
cutting by the foreigner. In other
words, If the price of sugar Is 800
a hundred, the foreigner can reduc
his price to $500. pay his tariff and
still sell sugar at q profit. He does
not do this, however. because he
does not have to as the price Of
sugar is set by law of supply and
demand The tariff merely protects
the American sugar when the price
is so low that without 1t the sugar
industry would be wiped out.
If the price OF sugar stays at the
present figure 1t will mean many
millions Of dollars extra for west
ern sugar beet growers when the
harvest comes in next year. II the
price of sugar does not stay up SO
that the beet farmer can make
some money. it is going to be Inn
possible to secure the raw material
that will enable the factories to pay
him a price that will encourage
beet production. 1t cannot be II,
cured any other way.

suit of q compromises in which both
the French and British made con
cessions, ana the text was drawn IN
AFTER long consultation In such &
way as to allow them to withdraw
from the uncompromising attitudes
previously maintained without giving
either side.
The crux of the compromise was
the decision to leave aside for the
moment all controversial phases Of
the reparation question and to take
up hrst the most urgent need---the
renovation of Germany's finance
and next the question OF getting hold
OF the enormous balances Germany
has abroad. 1t is hoped that when
these subjects have been thoroughly
examined, the allies will have found
q basis on which they can agree in
regard to other features Of the re-
paration problem. such as the meth
cd of payment by Germany and the
amount that is finally to be demand
ed of her.
American participation In the
committees Is regarded by the Allies
as essential, though 1t Is not thought
the American delegates must neces-
sarily be officially nominated by the
United States government. If OBJ
jections are still found in Washing
ton to the scope Of inquiry, there is
strong hope that the American Off
Gals will at least be willing TO sug-
gest the names of a leading financial
authority and leading banker for
each committee.
The resolution adopted today says
the committees shall be composed of
representatives of the ''allied and
associated" countries. It is UNDER
stood the British would have prefer
red to add some neutrals and also
allow the participation of a German
representative, but that they gave
way on that point in exchange for
elimination of the restrictions which
Premier Poincare had insisted upon.
limiting the inquiry TO Germany's
capacity within a definite number of
years.
Emphasis was laid tonight on the
fact that the resolution does not in
terpret article 234, which is taken to
mean that the committees themsel-
yes are left practically free to decide
just how far to carry their work I'M
der that article. The resolution is
regarded in itself as an invitation for
the United States to come into the
investigation. The opinion among
reparation delegates tonight was
that no special invitation would be
issued. since the reparation commits
sion is not situated so as to treat
officially with the governments.

The American government Itself,
it was pointed out. would not parti-
cipate in any event and it was added
that no American citizen of stand
ing that would give his connection
with the inquiry and weight would
accept membership on the expert
commission if he knew that his gov
