TARIFF DEMANDS
 HIT FARM BELT
Makers of Spraying "Dops' Ask for High Rates

Washington. Jan. s H,-Consider- ation of the chemical. oils and paints tariff schedule today brought another batch of witnesses to the house ways and means committee hearing on proposed rate revisions. Declaring prices of white arsenic. whose by-products are used by farm- CTS and fruit growers for spraying purposes. were below the cost of production because of foreign tm- ports. w C. Bacorn, of Jardine, Montana, urged a duty of four cents a pound on this product, which is now on the free list.
 Questioning of the witness de- veloped that the commercial price of calcium arsenate. a by-product of white arsenic. and used principally by cotton growers. would be in- creased 1.45 cents a pound under the proposed tariff.
 J. W. Boyer, Monsanto Chemical Works. St. Louis. got into an argu- ment with the committee when he hesitated to state the cost to his com- pany in producing theobromine, from which a caffein is obtained. After a warning from Chairman Hawley that unless such data were forthcoming the witness would stand little chance of getting the item con- sidered when the rate-making began. he declared the cost was $2 a pound and the import price $l.l5. He asked a duty of Sl a pound instead of the present 25 per cent ad valor- em.
 Contending that not enough of the material was produced here to keep plants operating. Martin Cantine. Saugerties, N. Y, urged restoration of caffein to the free list. The pro- duct, used by coated paper manufac- turers. now bears . duty of 2h cents a pound.
