ST|MSON OPPOSES
ISLAND SUGAR CURB
Restriction Of Free Imports
From Philippines Held "Be-
trayaI of Trust"


Secretary Stimson has informed the
House ways and means committee that
II proposed restriction Of free sugar i'm
ports from the PHILIPPINES is carried
out 1t would be inevitably interpreted
as betrayal of trust by the United
States toward a dependent people"
The State Department head told the
committee that the proposed restric-
tion was entirely unnecessary to protect
American beet or cane sugar interests,
as free entry Of PHILIPPINE sugar into
the United States does not and can
not affect the price of sugar In the
American market"
Lays Moves to Cuban Interests.
Mr.. Stimson said the issue lies be-
tween Cuban and PHILIPPINE sugar
rather than between PHILIPPINE and
domestic sugar. He, added that the
present attempt to restrict sugar from
the PHILIPPINES comes directly from
those interests which have invested in
Cuban sugar."
Publication Of the testimony of Mr..
Stinson, who appeared before the COM
mittee in executive session Thursday,
caused quite q stir at the Capitol as
1t was the first time since the Repub-
lican members went behind closed
doors to write the new tariff bill that
any. OF their proceedings were oficially
made public.
It was said at the committee ofices
that since Stimson's testimony was pub

withhold it from the press.
Representative Garner Of Texas,
ranking Democrat on the committee,
the minority members Of which have
been excluded since public hearings

one they love is having another BIRTH
day and they hope many, many. many
more
So they prepared little ceiebra
tion. Just as they did each year! For
each year it grew more important that
there must be little celebration for
their beloved Dolly.
SO this year they gaye-a very small
party-just for those who loved Dolly
best of ALL They would give big
party later on but those who loved
her the most wanted one little cele-
bration all their very own for Dolly.
They gathered around little table
and they sang this song, making up
funny little tune as they went along:
Dolly. we love you, you ought to know
that,
And we know that you know 1t, too
You're neither too thin nor are you too
fat,
You're perfect just being you.
Dolly, we love you. you're our own
precious one.
You make us so glad and so gay,
You're full OF action and full OF fun
And you make US feel just the same
way.
Dolly. we love you, and we mean Whist
we say,
when now as We sing this song,
We wish you so many happy returns
OF the day.
Many, many "appy returns OF the day.
Then they gave Dolly their pres
| ents, but not very many-just few
little things, for this year they had q
surprise for Dolly. She was to pick
out her little gifts herself on the next
| day, for they knew there were several
little things she wanted which she
| could pick out just right.
After that they hadPeach Ice cream,
for they thought 1t was a good thing
to have the Ice cream of flavor
which was like Dolly-and Dolly was
just like little peach, too!
They had cake with candles and
they made speeches and cheered, and
Dolly sat at the~Aead of the table witt
wreath about her head and at ths
back Of her chair ribbons gayly wers
tied there.
Green ferns were decorating the
table and q carrot made mostly out o.
marshmallow stood upon the table
too. for Dolly was very fond of marsh
mallow.
And as the smiles Of all looked 81
brightly happy In the candlelight Dol
ly's heart glowed warmly that she wal
so loved and the hearts Of the Others
that they had Dolly to love.
For what Is nicer than on birth

when they wanted to let her know
how much they loved her.
And so 1t began. They called her
Dolly at first when they wanted to
show her in just one more little way
that they thought she was the dearest
person and the sweetest person and
the loveliest person.
And then they wanted to let her
know In just one more way that they

But 1t didn't seem to them that
there was ever a time when they didn't
