IMPORT LIMITING
ON SUGAR URGED
Farm Bureau Federation Rep.
resentative Would Expand
u. S. Market.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A recommendation that the American
market be expanded for American pro-
ducers by limiting the sugar imports
from Cuba, the Philippines and Puerto
Rico was made at sugar hearing to-
day by Chester H. Gray, representative
CT the American Farm Bureau Fedora
tion
There is no need for limiting do
mestic sugar production, he contended.
and no need for imposing processing
taxes or making benefit payments or
institution Of a program of acreage
withdrawal.
The American sugar industry, would
be best served-in his opinion-by max
ing no change in the preferential rate
On Cuban imports unless that schange
be to make the Cuban rate the same as
the world rate.
Approximately $50 representatives of
the sugar industry, including producers
from the Philippines, Cuba, Puerto Rico
and Hawaii, were attending the sugar
hearing under the auspices of the agri-
cultural adjustment administration in
an effort to work out trade agreement
based on quota system to increase
the general price level and stabilize all
units of the industry.
Representatives Of the sugar industry
were urged today by Charles j. Brand,
co-administrator Of the agricultural ad-
justment act, to bury the hatchet OF
competition to arrive at a trade agree
ment for the benefit of the industry.
Brand said in formulating trade
agreement the problem must be ap-
preached from new angle of Give and
let live" and not dog eat Cog"
Everybody must make some contri-
button" he said in asserting that any
code entered into would be fairly ad-
ministered.
Brand outlined the principles Of the
agricultural adjustment act under
which the agreement would be made
and suggested the selection of Service
committees" from within the various
groups to prepare the quota plan.
He also suggested a sugar industries
board or council which would speak for
the industry as a whole and would
work with the Farm Administration.

biennial convention here, YESTERDAY
unanimously adopted q report In which
It was asserted that various develop
ments had 'to a great degree demoral-
lied the spirit of the employees of the
Government service"
The report. read to the delegates by
George w. Hill of Baltimore, fifth vice
president, said in part:
The recent cut in salary Of Is per
cent, the continued agitation of COM
pulsory furloughs up to 80 days, the
compulsory retirement of 30-year en-
ployes, some of whom represent the best
men In our service, plus the reorgani-
zation plans, have to great degree de-
moralized the spirit of the employees Of
the Government service.
We entered the Government service
thinking that as long as we efficiently
performed our respective duties that we
had place for life, and now, after hav-
ing given the best years of our lives to
the service, some are faced with the
prospect of being thrown out on the
business world where there are approxi-
mately 100000 unemployed. There can
be no denial Of the fact that economic
hysteria completely supplanted sound
business Judgment in the minds OF the
great majority Of our statesmen during
the past two years"
Numerous resolutions will be consid-
cred by the delegates today, chief OF
which is one proposing afhhation with
the American Federation Of Labor. The

ROBINSON PRAISES
PARTY'S RECORD
Campaign Pledges Fulfilled or
Ready for Final Action,
He Says.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
All the Democratic party's platform
promises either have been fulfilled or
advanced to a stage which promises
early ultimate results" Senate Demo-
cratic Leader Joseph Robinson said yes
terday. Robinson praised the admins
tration for IAN Incompatible record"
in keeping campaign pledges.
In a statement reviewing the record
Of the administration and Congress, the
Arkansas Senator said there were signs
of "a decided improvement in business -
Robinson listed the partys campaign
pledges, one by one, with statement
of the action taken on each.
Heading the list was the pledge to cut
governmental expenditures 25 per cent,
which he said had been accomplished
by effecting annual savings of about a
billion dollars" This also fulfilled the
promise to balance the budget, he as
serted.
Finds No Parallel.
Robinson said Congress made q rec
ord unparalleled for speed and effective
action" and that he knew "of no other
instance of equal cooperation by leg
islative body with the executive"
There have been differences of opin-
ion regarding detail, but they have been
quickly composed and the desired result
obtained" he added.
The Congress has not been a rubber
stamp. The most obvious necessity of
emergency legislation has been speedy
passport for its enactment, while other
measures less urgent, or seemingly so,
h hooro dahofad IN hla do
tail"
Among the pledges he claimed had
been fulfilled were farm relief, Federal
aid to the unemployed, spreading en-
ployment, development of water power,
protection of the investing public and
firm foreign policy.
Defends Money Policy.
Commenting on the platform pledge
for sound currency and an international
monetary conference. Robinson said:
In the opinion of many, conditions
which had not been anticipated by the
previous administration made necessary
the grant of extraordinary powers to
the President with respect to the con-
tent of the gold dollar.
Authorization for the issuance Of
Treasury notes secured by Government
bonds and for the purchase by the
Treasury of Government obligations,
is supported by numerous precedents.
'Manifestly the platform declaration.
which declared for an international
monetary conference to consider the re-
Mobilization of silver, did not commit
the administration to the obligation 20
maintain the gold standard, in spite of
the fact that nearly all other CONNER
cial nations of prominence might
abandon it."

Newspaper Code Might Bar
Dilettante Journalists,
He Thinks
He Thinks
By WestbrOOk Pegler

Most of the newspaper boys and
girls will prefer to be classed as pro-
fessional people under the code of
the NRA, even though this status
would assure them no greater bene-
fit than the privilege of being called
out of bed in the middle of the night
to go to work.
Most of the newspaper people are
merely employees of very practical
merchants, but as long as these mer-
chants are permitted to call their
business an institution and to COM
mand special privileges for it, the
hands will like to regard themselves
as members of a romantic craft.
The publishing business, in return
for the privileges which it enjoys by
reason of its special position in indus
try, naturally owes something to the
public. Just what it does. owe. has
never been identified in any code,
however, except, that generally the
press is asked to serve no interest
but the public interest. This is a. very
ambiguous requirement and two pub
fishers might claim to be entirely con-
scientious, each according to his own
lights, when they are in violent and
abusive opposition on all matters of
controversy.
1t is curious that at this time, when
Mr.. Roosevelt is exhorting the en-
ployers of the country, including the
publishers, to cooperate with the
NRA, one of the most conspicuous
rivals of the newspaper and magazine
writer is the Roosevelt private and
official family. The Presidents secre-

Roosevelt and their daughter, Mrs.
Dali, are regular occupants of space
which always was occupied by profess
SIGNALS up to the time when the cleo
ton returns appraised the publishers
that they were great natural writer's.
A few weeks ago, when the President

written them with his finger in his

An organization has been formed
in New York to ask that the publish
ers, when they have work to assign,
give the jobs to regular, experienced
members of the profession. Probably
this is intended to eliminate the I'M,
fair competition of dilettante journal
lists, such as the sons and daughters
of the boss social affairs. It GER
tainly can not be taken to ask the ex-
clusion of such veteran journalists as
Mrs. Franklin d. Roosevelt; nor the
tried and experienced reporter, Anna,
her daughter; nor Jimmy, the water
front man, all of whom can hold their
heads up in the company of Primo
