ARGUE OVER FORM
OF SUGAR TARIFF
Association Wants Flat
Rate, But High One

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.-Sena-
for Smoot and the Spreckles Sugar
Co. representatives today argued be-
fore the Senate finance committee,
which is amending the house tariff
bill in favor of their respective 'slid-
ing scales" Some compromise be-
tween them seems probable.
Opposition to the sliding scales,
both of which provide for much
higher duties than those now in. use,
developed from F. A. Dillingham;,
representing the American Sugar
Producers Association. The Asso-
citation demands flat rate, in fair
weather or foul, of cents a pound,
nearly double the present rate. The
producers of foreign sugar of course
are opposed to raise in tariff.

RevOlutiOnaries
Gain in Shop Poll

PRAGUE, (By MaiD.-The shop
council elections took place yester-
day in the rubber factory Matador
in Petrzalka near Bradshaw. The
revolutionary unions secured 6 seats,
representing a gain of Q; the Tchec-
kish National Socialists secured 3
seats, formerly 2; the Tcheckish So
cialists who formerly held one seat
lost this seat and now have no
representation. The social democrats
carried on their propaganda on the
basis that the G. P. had collapsed
and that the only remaining working
class party was the c. d. p, with
the result shown above. The fascist
elements in the factory which were
very active, failed to gain single
seat.

.NUNITION filled
ship SENT FROM
Reich TO CHINA
Disclosure Is Made by
ROte Fahne

BERLIN, Aug. THE "Rote
Fahne" publishes notice from Dan
zig to the effect that the steamer
Fake" of the North German
Lloyd, whose home port is Hamburg,
left the port of Gdingen on the 10Th
of July with an enormous cargo
of munitions, destination Shanghai
The crew of the steamer, after
learning that the cargo was ammu-
milton, left the ship. AS other Ger
man sailors also refused to trans
port munitions for Chang Kai-shek
and against the Soviets, the captain
engaged a Polish crew, and left the
harbor last Friday.
Two years ago the revelations in
the Communist press with respect
to the enormous transports Of wea-
pons and munitions, via Hamburg,
for Chang So-lin, raised a painful
sensation all over the world, and
Stresemann concluded Gentle
mems Agreement with the German
shipowners and exporters, to the
effect that neither weapons nor am
munition were to be sent from Ger
man ports. The German capitalists
evade this agreement by simply do
ing their business in weapons thru
foreign ports. The "Rote Fahne"
comments that we have here a
striking proof of the arming of the
Chinese war provocators by the
German bourgeoisie. This is not
neutral, as it pretends to be, but in
terferes actively in the imperialist
struggle against the Soviet Union.

Sharp Split in Young
Plan Conference

THE HAGUE, Holland, Aug. T.
The American delegate to the Young
Plan conference, E. C. Wilson, re-
fused to speak today after all the
other delegates had taken sides one
way or the other on the demand
of Philip Snowden, British "labor"
chancellor of the eXchequer, that
the plan be revised to give England
large share and France smaller
portion of the huge indemnity ex-
torted from beaten Germany.
There is an apparently well found
ed rumor that Wilson will now de-
mand a share of the unconditional
payments" for American claimants
or those bankers to whom they have
sold their claims.
Sharp Split.
Cheron, of France; Mosconi, of
Italy; Hymans, of Belgium, and the
japanese delegate, Adatchi, vigor-
ously denounced any yielding to
Snowden's demands. Wirth and
Stresemann of Germany gave mild
support to those demanding no
change in the plan.
On the other hand, Titulescu, of
Rumania, speaking in the name of
most of the smaller countries of
Europe involved in the war, followed
Snowden. 10" .,a... p, 20"
Two commissions were organized,
with two delegates from each coun-
try on the financial commission, and
only Britain, France, Italy, Ger
many, Belgium and Japan on the
political commission.

ROME, Aug. liking Victor
Emanuel of Italy today bestowed a
posthumous medal on DR. Finn
Malmgren, who accompanied Mobile
on his airship Italia in the North
Pole dash last year.

breaker Krassin had rescued most
of the crew two fascist officers who
were with Mobile had either killed
or eaten him, or devoured part Of
him after he starved to death.
Victor Emanuel now pays deli
cate compliment to the Swedish

BIG INCREASE
IN SOVIET TRADE
HERE IN JULY
Agricultural Tools
Make Up Bulk

The Amtorg Trading Corporation,
the Soviet Trading Agency in the
U. S. A., placed orders during the
month of July to total of 500, l00,-
600, the largest amount of purchases
made in any single month since the
organization of the company five
years ago, it was announced yester-
day by Saul G. Bron, Chairman of
the Amtorg. Purchases by the
Amtorg for the entire Soviet fiscal
year 1925-26 amounted to $13, 49,
900 and for last year to $33,100,00O,
while for the ten months ending July
81, 1929, the orders placed aggre-
gated S51, 100000. The total Soviet
American trade amounted to $115,-
100000 last year, as against S48,-
100000 in 1913, while this years
total bids fair to establish a record.
A significant feature of the Am
torg's operations during the past
months was the fact that about 80
per cent of the orders placed in
volved credits, larger share than
in the past. Complete equipment for
a power plant to be constructed in
conjunction with the Stalingrad
Tractor Plant was ordered on five
year credit basis from the Westing-
house Electric International Com
pany and the International Combus-
tion Engineering Corporation.
Among other firms with which or
ders were placed on long-term
credits were Allis-C Chalmers Com
pany, Worthington Pump Company,
Ingersoll- Rand Company, Link Belt
Company, international Harvester
Company, John Deere Company,
Caterpillar Tractor Company, the
Hercules Motor Company.
Of the orders placed in July agri-
cultural equipment purchases,
for shipment to the Soviet Union
during the first ten months of the
current Soviet fiscal year, begin
ming October 1, 1928, amounted to
$23,200,000, double the purchases Of
the entire preceding year. Agri-
cultural equip m mt purchases,
amounting to $21, 100000, exceeded
last years purchases by one-third
and were nearly three times the pur-
chases of two years ago. Automo-
tive products purchases increased
so per cent over last year
Aside from tractors the largest
purchases for July were made 'for
the Soviet oil industry. Orders for
eight cracking plants to be installed
at Batum and Tuapse, the terminals
of the two recently completed oil
pipe lines, were placed with the
Winkler Koch Company, of Wichita,
Kansas.
The first large order for automo-
biles in connection with the recently
contaminated agreement was placed
with the Ford Motor Company. Con-
siderable foundry equipment was or
dered for the Stalingrad Tractor
Plant and for the Amo truck fac
tory in Moscow. Machine tools, min
ing equipment, mills and ore crush
ers and chemical products were
among the other important items
purchased by the Amtorg during
July.

May Spread.

Ben Hirsh, president of M. Vile
& Co., returning from England yes
terday, stated that it is feared
among British manufacturers that
the cotton mill strike will soon
spread to the wooden mills, where
the employees are very much dis
satisfied.
The importers of British cottons
in New York stated yesterday that
the market here had failed to stock
up because they had received reas-
surfing statements during the past
month that the Lancashire strike
would be short. 1t is presumed here
that the mill owners were relying
on the Macdonald ministry and the
reactionary union leaders to sell out
the strike quickly, and are now
caught without stocks.

CAPETOWN, British South Africa July 25, (P)-Whe nthe Lion As sociation for the advancement of science meets here July g it's delib- erations will be in territory which has come to be more than ordinary interest to men of science
 Anthropologists and archeologists have found South Africa a rich field for their investigations into the origin and early records of man kind, and paleontologists regard the fossil beds of the region as po-- tential sources of many important discoveries yet to come.
 It was at Boskop, in the Trans vaal, that the famous "Boskop man" was found; that is to say, enough of his jawbone and brain ease were found to lead scientists Ito deduce that here once lived a Stone age man akin to the Cor Magnon race, the earliest race of modern" men known in Europe.
 It was in cave at Broken Hill mine, in northern Rhodesia, that the "Rhodesian man" was discover ed in 1921, surrounded by primitive stone and bone implements. The extraordinary brow ridges in the skull of this fellow, his ape-like }pelvis and other characteristics, led to his classification as a creature half way between the Neanderthal
 man and the gorilla"

believed to have been Leonard M.
Hadley, As, address unknown. He
was found unconscious in a side
road Wednesday night near Cooper

right side was paralyzed.
A coroner'S inqueso will be held.
The body will be kept in the city
