One delightful attribute of this prize visit to countries abroad which makes it different from the ordinary scheduled “tour” is that the individual likes of the orators themselves will govern much of the route and the schedule. In other words, an itinerary is not planned now which will necessitate raliroad-like recision on the part of the orators, but nstead, a plan is evolved which will permit additional stop-overs at places which the boys and girls will find par- | tieularly interesting. The chaperons of the party will bear in mind the over-all time limits and a few basic stops amd the rest will be worked out in friendly coriference with the orators. But all that is yet far ahead.

The House passed the tariff bill after increasing the duty on im- ported .sugar. The Senate finance committee has reported the bill to the Senate with compromise rates on sugar, something between the rates in the ex- isting law and the rates rl'opoled in the House bill. The effort of a ¢onsiderable number of the Senators is to keep the sugar duties at a level no higher than that of the present tariff act. Because of the very large quantity of sugar consumed ‘in this country and because of the fact that a great part of this sugar is imported there has been much public interest in the action by Congress on the sugar schedule. ‘The domestic sugar producers are de- manding an increase in the duties and importers are opposing such an in- crease, along with many of the large consumers of sugar.
