TARIFF BATTLE
AROUND SUGAR
AND SHOES SEEN
Washington (LP) Sugar and shoes,
two Items which affect every man,
woman and child in the country,
are to be made the center of the
senate tariff contest, It was Indi
cated as the various forces were
organizing for what may be the
biggest senate fight since the league
of nations dispute.
The Independent republican and
democratic group has asked the
Peoples Legislative service to dig up
all favorable facts about these two
subjects and other rates In which
they are to be primarily interested.
Hearings on both schedules are
open Monday In the senate finance
sub-committees.
The basic sugar rate provided by
the bouse Is three cents a pound
with a 20 per cent discount allowed
to Cuban sugar, inis rate com
pares with 2.20 cents in the existing
Jaw. The increase would necessarily
Increase the price of sugar.
The basic shoe duty is 20 per cent,
with 35 per cent against certain
high grade shoes from Czecho-Slo
vakia, used mostly by women. This
Increase would also Increase shoe
prices materially, as shoes now are
on the free list.
The Peoples Legislative service
will figure out what these two Items
and others would cost the consum
ers In millions of dollars and gather
such other data as will be of as
sistance to those who intend to
fight the schedules when the tar
iff bill Is brought before the sen
ate August 19.
It is considered likely the sugar
fchedulc will be changed by the
finance committee before the bill is
reported. A sliding scale, designed
to be more moderate in its effect
than the flat rate, Is being worked
out by some of the experts and may
be offered in the bill. The inde
pendents however will fight any Increase.

Celia Myers have asked the
Cambridge City Council to
buy them new shoes and

They were crossing a street
which was under construction
when they became stuck In a
heavy coating of fresh tar.
They stepped out of their
shoes, but before they could
reach the nearby sidewalk,
they again became stranded
and bad to abandon their
stocking, as well. They final

bare feet.

BOSTONIAN HEAD
OF SCHEME FOR
FERTILE SARAHA
London, (IP) D wight Br am an,
Boston engineer, has convinced the
French government that he can
make the arid Sahara desert blos
som like a new garden of Eden.
With this hurdle overcome England
Is watching his further moves with
great interest because of Its im
mense irrigatlonal projects In the
Sudan and Egypt.
Braman's plans call for one of the
most stupendous engineering feats
ever performed in securing an In
land sea In the heart of the Sahara.
This sea, fed by canals from the
Mediterranean, will furnish water
for evaporation and thus Increase
the amount of rainfall. Irrigation
water will be obtained by tapping
164 rivers and two underground
streams, the flow of which will be
augmented by the increased rain
fall. The canal from the sea feeding
the artificial inland super-lake will
be large enough to handle heavy
ships providing cheap transporta
tion for the newly developed land
in the Sahara.
At the mouth of the canal, which
will be In the Gulf of Oabes, Bra
man plans to construct a harbor by
throwing up a large breakwater. The
harbor will be made one of the
pons of calls for Mediterranean
vessels.
The site of the Inland sea Is salty
land, for the most part below sea
level, and is southwest of Tunisia
and west of the Gulf of Gabes. The
sole purpose of the Inland sea Is to
provide moisture to Increase the
rainfall thereby augmenting the
flow of the rivers In the Aures and
Atlas mountains.
A series of dams will control the
water in these rivers, while .three or
