Sliding Scale Idea for Tar
iff on Sugar Won't do
At All, Claim
WASHINGTON, Aug. f. (AP)
Democrats lost no time today in
attacking the proposal of Senator
Smoot of Utah for a sliding scale
for sugar tariff rates which was
carried by the Utah senator to Vir
ginia for discussion with Presi
dent Hoover at the executive's
fishing preserve in the Blue Ridge
mountains.
Senator Harrison, ' democrat.
Mississippi, a member of the fi
nance committee of which Smoot
is chairman, described the pro
posal as a fine scheme to fix and
manipulate prices," and Senator
Connally, of Texas, also a demo
cratic member of the committee
asserted that the sliding scale was
sure to cause a higher rate on su
gar than at present.
Interest Aroused By
Conference With Hoover
Considerable interest was man
ifested in Washington in-the visit
of Senator Smoot to Mr. Hoover's
mountain lodge where it was re
garded as certain that the sugar
schedule would form the principal
topic for discussion. Smoot's
committee will hold a hearing on
the proposal next Wednesday and
committee action is expected to
follow promptly. There are indi
cations that a number of promi
nent republican senators, includ
ing Senator Borah of Idaho, also
are not wholly satisfied that the
Smoot plan will prove efficacious
for meeting the president's wish
to frame a sugar schedule which
will benefit both the producer and
consumer.
Uncertainty Marks
Completion Date
Whether the tariff bill wiU be
ready for senate attention on Au
gust 19, the date set for that body
to re-convene. Is held to depend
on progress made by the finance
committee next week. Chairman
Smoot has ordered night sessions
to speed up the work, but there
has been some discussion of noti
fying (he senate membership that
three-day recesses will be taken
between August 19 and Septem
ber 3 in order to give the com
mittee more time.
Senator Harrison said in his
statement, Issued be hoped for
from the conference between
Smoot and the president. A sim
ilar conference, he asserted, was
held by the president with house
leaders when the tariff bill was
before that body.
Sarcastic Comment
Flung By Harrison
"No one at that time heard of
the president raising a protest
against any part of the house pro
gram," Harrison said. "It may be
that it is the aroused force of
public opinion that has caused
this important conference in Vir
ginia; or it may be that Senator
Smoot wants to" sell his sugar
coated plan to the president."
- Senator Connally said the ob
jective of Chairman Smoot -was to
increase the price oT sugar and he
added th.at the sliding scale would
do this.
"Its design is to fix the price,"
Connally asserted. It also will fix
the consumer. The sliding scale
will slide upward rather than
downward. When stripped of
words and theories, sugar will cost
more than it costs now. That is
what Senator Smoot wants. Is
that what President Hoover
wants; is that the president's plan
to 'protect the consumer?"

By CURTIS
Ball players have a big advant
age over actors.
A theatrical troupe must either
learn a new show or move on aft
er everybody In town has seen the
one they've been giving.
Bat a ball team never has to
rehearse a new show, because
every one Is new no matter how
hard the players try to repeat
their last performance.
Which is our way of leading up
to a remark that although It will
be the Senators and Mt. Scott
again at Olinger field today, we
predict there will he a lot more
fans out to see it than there were
for last Sunday's game.
Now that the jinx is broken
and some of our gnesses have
turned out right, we pick the
Senator to win today.
By the way, part of the scenery
will be new for today's show,
after all the work that the Amer
ican Legion boys have done and
will do this morning, dolll
place np for the convention
events.
.Good as Mr. Harris of the
gers is, we bet he takes particu-
lar notice every time Billy Sul
livan steps np to bat.
We'll also predict that George
Scales, Mr. Scott's rlghtV fielder
who plays basketball for Willam
ette university in the winter, will
watch his step around first base
this Sunday, if he gets that far.
Last Sunday he cheated himself
out of one hit by failing to touch
the bag, and was caught off the
base another time.
The Wolfers play Kelso. There's
one tie in the standings that will
be broken, and the result will
mean something to Salem It Long
view, as haa been forecast, drops
back after releasing some of its
high priced help.
Before the season started, the
two Washington towns in this
bail circuit were red hot, and
reports came forth that there
were big sinking funds behind
both teams. But attendance
hasn't been what 'it should, and
the sinking funds sank rapidly,
or so we hear.
One thing about sinking funds.
they don't help the split that the
visiting teams get; and that's why
Salem, without a sinking fund but
the best baseball town in the
league, got so many home games
this half. Anyway, that's the low
down that Manager Frederickson
of Mt. Scott handed out when he
was here a week ago.
Today's the day that the Sa
lem and Iflahee clubs stage their
battle on the Salem fairways.
The 'Sllverton American Legion
junior ball team ought to draw
half the Willamette valley to Fri
day's game here with the Gyro
Cardinals for the state champion
ship game. Sllverton recruited
its team from Mt. Angel, Brooks,
Gervais, Hubbard, Molalla, Wood
burn and Sllverton Itself.
"Californian Wins in Tennis
