Operators Aroused

cept possibly his arbitrary deci
sion to forbid all oil and ga,

than a week after he was placed
in office.
Indicative OF the aroused senti-
ment IN Montana is the telegram
sent to President Hoover on
Wednesday BY the Rocky Noun.

up until 80 days ago took no
part IN the tariff agitation. The
telegram follows:
Telegram
Referring to statement
issued by Secretary wilbur
making declaration against
tariff on oil. very respect
fully desire to express the
view OF this association that
such an utterance was not
only unjust and an incorrect
portrayal Of facts. but like
wise a blot on the republican
administration and the plat
form Of tariff equity and
justice advocated BY you
prior to your election.
Authoritative and virtu-
ally undisputable surveys
point to a supply OF crude oil
IN the United States suffl-
cient Tor at least the next
zoe years. Furthermore the
Montana fields and refin-
cries are handicapped and
restricted BY the burden Of
importations to the extent
that they are producing and
operating at less than one
third capacity, resulting In a
grave unemployment aitua-
ton, reflected in loss Of re-
venue to this state and its
people.
We most respectfully ask
that you give this matter
your personal attention to
the end that Secretary VIII

claration. which Is at least
wholly misleading and not q

Lord Derby has estimated that It costs

But that Is only the beginning Of the
expense for the owners. The prominent
trainers who look after the horses of
the leading owners receive, apart from
the ordinary charges, 10 per cent Of
the stakes won. Certain jockeys also
receive 10 per cent Of the stakes In
addition to retaining and riding fees.
It often costs an owner 500 to place
his horse at the starting post In a
minor race where the place money Is
only $25 for the second, with nothing
for the third. Except on few courses
which give complimentary admission,
owners must, If they desire to enter

The Tariff Commission Is investigat-
ing the import duties on all forms OF

The inquiry, under the flexible pro-
vision Of the Hawley-Smoot tariff act
OF 1890, was announced yesterday after
the commission considered report on
preliminary survey Of the industry.
The commissioners declined to amplify
the formal announcement, but the in
vestigation will open up all the items
of the schedule that was the bitterest-
fought section of the new tariff act.
A formal application for investigation
Of the duties on refined sugar was LAID
before the commission last June with
the signatures Of virtually every branch
of the domestic industry. The petit
TONERS included the American, Savan-
nah, Pennsylvania and National sugar
Refining Companies. the United States
Beet Sugar Association and score OF
other manufacturers and producers.
At the same time the commission
received about 5000 separate petitions
from beet growers for investigation OF
the duties on raw sugar. Both requests
were met by the action announced yes

Congress Raised Duty.
Congress raised the duty on retlned
sugar in the 1880 act from $l.91 to
$2.l2 per 100 pounds (for 100 per cent

creased the rate on raw Cuban sugar

$1.76 to % per 100 pounds.
A representative Of domestic pro-

the demand for the investigation OF
the refined sugar schedules was con-
tention by domestic producers that the
Hawley-Smoot schedule placed them al
disadvantage with producers manu-
featuring In Cuba.
The domestic refinerS assert, he said
that it requires lot pounds OF raw
sugar to produce 100 pounds OF the re-
fined product. or quantity OF raw
product for which the domestic manu-
facturer must pay $214 duty, leaving

duty levied on the same quantity Of
sugar manufactured at home and II
