That the carbonated beverage in

That the tariff commission reported

That the investment in Cuban sugar
is largely American and that this.

That further tax on Cuban sugar
merely operates IS a bounty for
Hawaiian and Philippine sugar and
that Hawaiian sugar furnishes the
real competition for the beet interests.
Domestic sugar producers have not
been SO vociferous. but they reply:
That foreign sugars have been

sugar was selling at its lowest price in
history.
That II relief is not granted the

Washington. May 25-The big lcgis-
lative fight in Washington right now
Is over the sugar tariff.
All the rowing over farm relief
legislation seems like SO much shadow
boxing. insofar as the ultimate re-
suit is concerned. There Is no great
doubt anywhere that the administra-
tion's $500, 900 900 farm measure. with
out the debenture scheme. will
eventually become the law.
The only other thing congress Is
worrying about is the tariff and it is
worrying about that a great deal.
Il is worrying all the more as ru-
mors spread to the effect that Presi-
dent Hoover is likely to veto the Re-
publican tariff bill BY the time the
Senate gets through lacking on a few
more higher duties. According to
those who have the best reason to
spread the word around. Hoover is
opposed to any sugar tariff boost.
4 Real Battle
Pop-gunS and cap-pistOls are eX-
ploding on all sides over other Sec
lions of the tariff bill. but the real
artillery is booming at the proposed
increase Of the duty on foreign sugar
to three cents a pound. The attack
Is being led by American sugar pro-
ducers operating i'll Cuba. with able
support from the American Bottlers
of Carbonated Beverages, the Cuban
government. the American Chamber
of Commerce of Cuba. the American
Federation Of Labor and an assort-
ment Of other organizations and
members Of congress.
On the other side are the beet. cane
and corn sugar producers operating
entirely in the United States. who
will benefit by any increase. and
members of congress from sugar-pro-
ducing states and the American Farm
Bureau Federation.
Sugar comes into the United States
from Cuba. Hawaii, Porto Rico and
the Philippines. but most of 1t comes
from Cuba. With a preferential of
20 per cent Cuban sugar now pays
a duty Of l.76 cents a pound: with the
proposed thrce-cent duty 1t would pay
"a cents.
The low tariff group arguments in
clude these:
That the proposed rate would mean
an increased direct sugar tax" of
about $50. OO0. 900 a year for consum-
ers in addition to the existing tax
Of $283. 000. 900.
That it would be in no sense farm
relief, but would only benefit. Amcri-

Orr and Leslie to Plan Con-

Lawrence F. Orr, chief examiner
of the state board of accounts,
planned today to arrange a con-
ference with Governor Harry c..
Leslie to get the Armory building
investigation under way.
The accounts board has been
charged, under a law PASSED by
the 1929 legislature, to carry on a
complete investigation of the
building of armories under the
CLOSED corporation" plan.
Investigation was launched 'oy a
special senate committee, which did
not have the power to enter into
building costs. This power has
been conferred on the baord of &C
counts and each Of the twenty-three
armories built or financed through
the Peoples State Bank is to be
thoroughly investigated. Orr said.
A $4,000 appropriation was
stricken from the bill when Leslie
assured legislators that he would
finance the investigation from his
100000 emergency fund.

NEUNCIE, Ind, April When
AFA Mrs. Myrtle Flanagan,
chorus girl with a stock company
playing at local theater, died
here Feb. %, local newspapers &C
corded her sympathetic but the
usual formal notices. There was
no hint then that behind the
death, there lay a tragic story of
mother love.
In the courts OF Camden, N. j.,
the romance and tragedy have
been barred.
BY an unusual will, Myrtle, s.
year-old daughter of Mrs. Flana-
gan, has been willed to her grand
mother, Mrs. Ruth Palfrey, to keep
the child from falling into the
custody of its father, who deserted
his family soon after the child's
birth.
He was Handsome Billy"
Flanagan, an actor and singer.
He and his young wife had trodden
the foOtboardS since childhood.
A FTER marriage, Flanagan
IA quit the stage and together
the couple lived happily in Cam
den, where he was engaged as a
bookkeeper. He sang in a church
choir and radio.
Then one day, Mrs. Flanagan
saw her husband entering O. Cam
den bank. He waved at her and
told her he would return shortly.
Instead he left through another
door and his wife never saw him
again.
Her meager funds exhausted,
Mrs. Flanagan returned to the
stage, joining a stock company
as chorus girl.
She became i'll while playing
in Kokomo, but was able to con-
tinue to Muncie with the COM
pany. Here, she suffered an at
tack of acute appendicitis and
underwent an operation. She died
two days later.
Her child had joined her here
and after her mothers funeral,
was returned to her grandmoth-
er's home in Camden.
Camden lawyers have filed
adoption papers in behalf of the
grandmother.
Another stipulation in the
strange will was that the little
girls name, Myrtle Catherine,
should be changed to Dolores,
which in English means sorrow.
