POLICY ON SUGAR !.
TOBE KNOWN SOON
Violence in Cuba Adds Dii-
ficuIty to Disposal Of
Problem.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
New outbreaks of violence IN Cuba
over the week end threw an added
factor of difficulty into the govern
ment's ponderings over the United
States sugar problem today as an an
nouncement Of policy was awaited
momentarily.
The administration Is faced also
with the added fact of the imminent
harvest of sugar in the island and
the insistence Of action by American
sugar interests.
President Roosevelt has devoted
considerable time during the past
few days to the sugar problem and
other administration officials have
driven hard toward a solution Of the
problem.
Wallace Is Silent.
Secretary Wallace and his assist
ant, Rexford g. Tugwell, after a con-
ference with Secretary Hull and
group of Senators from sugar-produc-
ing States declined to discuss the
meeting or any conclusions decided on.
A declaration on the Governments
policy toward domestic and insulsr
sugar producers is in preparation,
however, and sources close to the ad-
ministration believe. it will be made
public early this week, possibly tooay
A program prepared by the Farm
Administration calls for inclusion of
sugar as a basic commodity in the
agricultural adjustment act as its
main point A bill providing for such
an amendment to the act IS now be-
fore Congress.
Benefit Payments.
II passed the measure would su-
thorize the levying Of a processing
tax on sugar of probably Il cent per
pound to make benefit payments TO
producers who would sign contracts
agreeing to not increase production
during 1884. Such payments would
be made to both domestic and insular
sugar producers.
To supplement such a program it
is believed the President will fix sugar
quotas for the various islands and
possibly reduce the import duty on
the commodity. The Tariff Commis-
sion has suggested reduction from 2
cents to 1.49 cents per pound.
The Cuban quota is expected TO be
set somewhere between the 1000 900
tons requested and 100 00O-ton fig
ure offered by the United States.

The nearby State of Virginia was
one of the few commonWealths to go

-FOUR OTHER MEN
Hailed BY SENATE
MacCracken Shares "Dis-
tinction" With Barry, Sin.
clair and Stewart.

Four other citizens before William
p. MacCracken, jr., have had the du-
bious distinction Of being hailed be-
fore the bar of the United States
Senate.
Just a year ago this month, David
S. Barry, then sergeant at arms OF
the Senate, was summoned before
that august body to explain a pub
lished article in which Larry said
that some members of Con 'ess could
be bribed..
Barry was not formally cited for
contempt, but was threatened with
criminal libel proceedings. This move
finally was defeated by vote OF the
Senate Judiciary Committee, but Bar
nv was ousted from his Senate post.
He was succeeded by Chesley w. Jur-
ney, who Friday night served a con-
tempt citation on MacCracken.
Probably the most famous contempt
proceedings ever instituted by the
Senate grew out OF the Teapot Dome
oil scandals. As result OF these pro-
ceedings, launched separately, Harry
F. Sinclair, oil magnate, served 80
days in the District Jail and Robert
w. Stewart, one-time chairman OF the
board of the Standard Oil Co. OF In
diana, won acquittal on charges OF
contempt OF the Senate and Of per-
Jury before that body.
Sinclair Cited In 1927.
Sinclair was cited for contempt in
1927 when he refused to answer four
questions propounded by the late
Senator Walsh OF Montana, chairman
of the oil inquiry. The questions were
whether Sinclair had conferred with
Albert w Fall on the Teapot Dome
lease in 1928, whether Sinclair had
lent" anything to Fall, whether Sim
clair had contracted with the late F.
G.. Bonfils. Denver publisher. with re-
spect to Teapot Dome and whether he
had agreed to allot part Of the Dome
to another publisher. John c. Shaf1er
Of Chicago.
Sinclair served his three month
sentence in 1929. this term running
concurrently with a six-month SEN
tence imposed for shaGowing the jury
in the first trial of Fall and himself
for conspiracy.
Stewart was cited for contempt in
1927 after he had been charged with
perjuring himself before the Senate
OIL Committee.
Negative Answers Given.
The perjury Charge grew out Of neg
ative answers given by Stewart to
three questions: Whether he knew
anything about the distribution OF
Liberty bonds representing profits OF
the Continental Trading Co., Ltd
whether he received any of the bonds,
and whether he had had any CONVEX
sation about the bonds or any knowl-
edge about their distribution.
The oil official answered mo- to
each question, whereas, the Senate
charged, he had received personally
$3.50. 800 worth of the bonds. part OF
which were traced to Sinclair and
Fall.
Stewart conducted long legal fight
in the Federal Courts against both
charges. with Frank j. Hogan. now
serving as attorney for MacCracken
as his counsel. He was acquitted by
the juries, but afterward was removed
from his office in the Standard Oil
Co. by action Of John d. Rockefel-
Ter. jr
Apparently the first person to be
cited for contempt by the Senate was
Elverton r. Chapman, New York
broker. who served one month In jail
in 1896 for refusing to answer Sen
ate questions about sugar specula-
tions.
