SAVING EACH
ss. ~. "

Payment Of q $lO,OOO,OOO an
nual bounty to American sugar
growers will be proposed by the
Republican insurgent bloc in the
Senate, 1t was learned today.
The plan will be put forward
as a compromise solution for the
problem vexing the forces war.
ring over sugar duties. The In.
surgents would authorize a bounty
OF less than a half cent per
pound on the American sugar
crop. They will defend the bounty
as certain to save the American
consuming public approximately
$4,000, 900 q year against any in
crease In the general sugar tariff.
They would fix their bounty at
the difference between the exist
Ing duty on Cuban sugar.
Save $5O,OOO,OOO
The insurgents pointed out that
the increased tariff on Cuban
imported sugar, If effective, would
raise the cost Of sugar to the
American consumers something
like $50, ,0OO, 900, since $4,000, ,OOO,-
900 pounds Of sugar is imported
annually from Cuba, the duty
free Philippines and Hawaii.
Senator LaFollette (R.) of Wis
sin was slated to introduce the
bounty plan as a rider to the
pending tariff bill.
Democrats were rallying behind
the proposed amendment of Sen
at Harrison CD Of Mississippi for
retention Of the existing $l.76
rate on sugar. He predicted its
adoption "if Eastern Republicans
will unite with u.s."
Senator Smoot (R.) of Utah
chairman Of the Senate Finance
Committee and chairman also Of
the subcommittee which worked
out the sugar duty in committee,
predicted an important American
induStry-the beet sugar industry
would go to the wall unless ade-
quate tariff protection was af.
forded.

HEAR JOHN D.
IN TALK|E

CLEVELAND, Jan. II uN6J.
John D. Rockefeller's story Of
success was told here last night
from the Cheese Box Still" chap
ter up to yesterday unfinished
biography.
Rockefeller's Standard Oil Com.
pany became so years old yester-
day. Some Of the men at the ban.
quet celebrating the anniversary
were silver-haired and went
through the great company's grow
ing pains along with John D."
Speakers traced the growth Of
the company from It's early stage
to its present status as the largest
business organization In the
world.
Tell John DIS Start
Rockefeller began his oil bust.
ness on Walworth Run, a hillside
west Of the Cuyahoga River. He
had an oil distillery there that
was so small it was called a
"cheeSebox still" He was q
young commission merchant and
in the Pennsylvania oil fields
they knew him as Serious
Johnny" At "a this serious
young man had accumulated q
small fortune, $1,000, so he
came to Cleveland looking for a
place to invest 1t. That was
in 1862. He and his partner.
Maurice B. Lark. pooled all they
had and bought the oil refinery.
Tockrr"".''' r'I.'5 not ne pres
ent at the celebration last night.
He was at O:mono Beach, Fla.
He sent his regrets to w. T. Hol-
lidays. president of the Standard
Oil Company of Ohio, parent Of
the vast Rockefeller interests.
Greeted by "Talkie"
But John D. spoke to his
Standard Oil men, just the same.
He used the latest theatrical
revolutions-a talkie made espe-
cially for the occasion in Florida.
On the screen the oil man was
smiling and radiant and he was
applauded as he spoke his words
Of greeting.

as defense material was pre-
Sented to the commission yester
day by B. F. Weadock, special
counsel. Questions Of motives,
methods and ethics were ignored
and none of the facts were dis
puted.
No Link Proven
Weadock said only that the
newspaper deals related to the
International Paper and Power
Company alone, that there was
no evidence in the record con-
Meeting the associations Of utili+
ties with that company, and
that he understood the papers
had since been sold,
AS to lobbying, Weadock de-
clared the fright of petition" still
exists, and the utilities had the
right to present their views to the
country'S lawmakers. He added:
"This record is free from any
criticism Of that, so we need
not go into It,"
The commiSsion's record was
built entirely on facts as to what
the 100000 power lobby was and
how it worked, officials pointed
out, and was never INTENDED to
embrace either criticism or the
merits Of issues dealt with.
AS q result of commission dis
closures, utility leaders withdrew
from the committee making a ma
tional survey of higher education

Electric Light Association, Wea-
dock told the commission.
Aim misunderstood"
He said there had been "misun-
derstandings" of the surveys pur.
pose, which he described as the
bringing of utilities, universities
and the public into closer rela-
ton"
Commissioner Edgar A. McCul
loch, presiding, excluded this
statement as argument" rather
than evidence. He admitted into
the record the report made by
the educator members of the com.
nittee, and it was announced the
commission will check the queS-
tionnaireS through which they OBJ
tanned their information.
Surveys Of textbooks through
out the country by utility propa-
gandiStS were defended by Wead-
ock as within the utilities rights,
provided what we do with the
information after we get it con-
forms with proper ethics" He
asserted there were "only a very
few instances" in which anything
was done. and then through
school authorities or publishers.
Claim Challenged
A further assertion that no
book was altered was at once
challenged by Chief Counsel Roo
ert e. Healy, who cited testimony
to the contrary.
The utility relations of sol
college professors mentioned in
the record were technical and
professional with a few excep-
tions," Weadock declared. He
dismissed this section of the rec
ord with general statements that
there was no evidence Of any
professors opinion being changed
and that "the opinions of the
educators Of this country are not
purchaSable by anybody"
Evidence was offered, but not
admitted, that two educators had
retained their educational posts
after the investigation.
