Br land Says Position Of Ally Not Essential The foreign minister argued that America, because she was an ally should not receive less consid eration than any creditors of France. The opponents of unconditional ratifioatlon rallied all their forces for an attack, but the government beat it off by a margin of 26 votes. Political observers after the votes hd been counted forecast that the chamber would ratify the debt accord, without conditions, within 24 hours. Passage ot the Delignt motion meant that reservations would probably be kept outside the text of the ratifying bill, itself and con sist merely ni recommendations to the government. Government Backs Measure As Compromise It was supported by the govern ment as a kind of compromise, in order to satisfy the strong groups wheih want to make French debt payments dep; dent on Germany's payment und:.- the Young plan, and at the same time to make the actual text of the ratification bill unconditonal. The opposition can still make a fight on the vote for the actual text, but observers thought this vote would only increase the lead Of the government. Deputy Delignt's motion recom mended to the government that every precaution be taken that sums accruing from Germany un der the Young plan be made avail able yearly for reimbursement of France's foreign debt.

TARIFF UP FOR FURTHER TALK ductlon reaches excessive levels and prices declined. President Hoover favors a su gar tariff that would serve , the dual purpose of protecting the domestic producers and consum ers. Senator Smoot's plan is de signed to accomplish this by sta bilizing the price at around 6 cents a pound wholesale, bnt It re mains fo majority members of the finance committee, which he heads, to endorse the proposition before the chairman decides to press it. Some republicans on the com mittee are understood to look with favor upon the principle of a tariff fluctuating with prices, but they have refused to commit themselves definitely until the Smoot plan Is put before them for study. It Is the chairman's nitention to submit the proposal to the ma jority when the sugar schedule is reached in the committee's exec utive deliberations on the house bill beginning Monday. . If the sentiment is for the eliding scale, the chairman has promised the democrats that he would call wit nesses for testimony on it. Meanwhile, speculation contin ues as to the attitude the Cuban and domestic producers will take on the scale idea. Testimony has been that American cane and beet sugar interests are opposed to It on the ground tha it is an ex periment with uncertain benefits. Recent reports quoting Cuban the spokesmen have indicated that island growers were willing to work with the domestic sugar interests In an attempt to arrive at a solution that would assist both slides. . Chairman Smoot said today he knew nothing of any change in policy by the Cu bans, except what he had read in the newspapers, but htat there muts be a change if the situation is to improve. Interest in the foreign protests against the house bill also has re newed today at the capitol with the receipt of a complaint from Czechoslovakian commercial and industrial organizations against increases proposed on f more than ; a dozen commodities. Senator Thomas, of- Oklahoma, a minority member of the finance committee, requested Chairman Smoot to have all the foreign complaints printed in pamphlet J most if.iu iui me luiuimuuua ot senators.

(AP) Interest in the controvers ial sugar tariff was revived to day after disclosure that hte slid ing scale plan of Senator Smoot, republican, Utah, provides a max imum duty of 2.40 cents a pound on Cuban raw sugar, the same as the flat rate in the house bill. The proposal calls for gradual reductions In duty as the whole sale price of Cuban sugar pyra mids at New York.
