COALITION EXPECTS TOWIN SUGAR FICHT Lumber and Oil Victories Re- store Confidence to In- surgent Group. (Continued From Pirst Page.) the American consumers. They argue that this is about $20,000,000 less than the increase which the Senate commit- tee’s amendment would have brought in the sugar bill had it been adopted. The vote on sugar is likely to be close—closer than it was when the Harrison smendment was adopted, it was said today. But the opponents of | any increase are more confident of de- feating the compromise proposal now than they were a few days ago. | Boot Compromise Sought. There is a drive on to line up Sena- | tors to vote for a duty on leather and | boots and shoes, with representatives of the boot and shoe industry in Massa- chusetts and the tanners leading the parade. It is well understood that if a duty is to be levied on leather and boots and shoes and leather goods. But | too, on hides. Indeed, the House bill | carried a duty on hides and so-called | “‘compensatory” duties were included on | boots and sohes and leather goods. But | in the Senate it was insisted that the | compensatory duties would far more than offset any good which could’ come to the American farmer from the pro- | posed duty cn hides. So the duties | were all taken off, and these articles | went back to the free list. A compro- mise is sought which can command the support of & majority of the Senate, but it is doubtful that the movement will be successful. Senator David I. Walsh, supporting a | duty on boots and shoes and leather, ! submitted to the Senate yesterday pe- titions signed by 15,000 workers in the boot and shoe industry, asking a duty on these articles. The delegation of manufacturers and others interested in | ohtaining these duties, now here from Massachusetts, called on a number of Benators yesterday, including Borah, Norris, Oddie, Copeland, Howell, La Fol- atfe and Nye. It is understood, how- ever, that they did not receive much encouragement. A delegation represent- ing the franers is expected here tomor- row. ‘The mayors of five cities are in the delegation. Senator Norris of Nebraska, one of the coalition leaders, said yesterday he | belisved much had come from publicity regarding the drive to levy duties on lumber and oil. He insisted it would be helpful in the fight which the coalition will wage to prevent an increase in the sugar duties. Final Action Earlier. i By disposing of the proposed amend- ments on lumber and oil, the Senate has cleared the way for earlier final action on the tariff bill than was ex- pected, it was said. Some of the Sen- ators who have taken a leading part in | the debate declared Luurdly they be- lieved that it would le to vote on the bill itself before close of this week. Senator Simmons of North Car- olina, however, does not agree to this. He said he believed it would take an other 10 days or two weeks to get to a vote on the bill. There seems to be a general disposition in the Senate now and"permit other legisation, long ‘de: and permit other n, e~ layed, to come up for consideration. Many of the appropriation bills are now on the calendar. The movement to bill from the coalition, at in so far as duties on lumber, ‘Sugar, oil and hides and shoes are con- cerned, seems to have failed. The coal- itionists did not tumble to the danger | until about the time that a vote was to be taken on the lumber amendment. Senator Nye of North Dakota, one of the coalitionists, held the floor for four hours, while the coalition leaders beat the brush and brought back in lumber duty. It was a near thing, however, and the lumber duty was de- feated Thursday night by a vote of on’lg 39 to 34. ad the lumber amendment been adopted, it is not at all improbable | and that the su amendment and the amendment for a duty on oil and for duties on hides might have prevailed. Lobby Inquiries Effective. The Senate lobby investigating com- mittee had a hand in deflating the pool. ‘When it called the promoters of the oil amendment before it and obtained from them statements showing how they were seeking to bring about such a pool, the effect was immediate. As a matter of fact, the lobby committee has been a Vllnlblu: u,ateb of the Senate wl!lfl;m ever since it was set uyp. Through its estigations and public hearings and the publicity given them the lobby com- mittee has had no little effect on the| voting in the Senate itself on rates of tariff duty. It had its effect on the sugar duty advance when that was first Voted on in the Senate. line | the Senators who had agreed to support the | The THE SUNDAY vania, would not vote for it. But this is denied by leaders on both sides of the chamber. There is a feeling that the bill should be sent to conference and prediction was made flatly today that the votes would be forthcoming to send it to conference. How many Democratic Senators will vote for the measure is not known. Many of the Democrats who have, as members of the “coalition,” succeeded in rewriting the bill are to vote against the measure, it is said. Some of the Democrats have not made up their minds what they will do. Should the sugar duty increase prevail, some of the Democrats who otherwise may vote for the bill will assuredly vote against it. It was pointed out, however, that the Democratic members of the Senate will be able to ter themselves effectually in opposition to the bill when it emerges from conference and comes before the Senate for its final approval, if they desire. The Senate, in session only for a couple of hours yesterday, is to meet again tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock. ‘The leaders Dm'me to continue with night sessions week if it seems necessary to bring the debate on the amendments and the bill to a close. Goff Charges Delay. The only speaker on the tariff bill yesterday was Senator Goff of West Virginia, who charged the coalition with delaying the measure. He ripped into the Democrats and Republican inde- pendents for what he terms their “man handling” of the tariff bill. He said they were delaying the measure so they could lay the blame for business Regarding the administrative provi- sions, Goff said the coalition had “de- stroyed the flexible provision. They have done nothing toward the abandon- ment of foreign value with all its evils abuses, and they have denied the right of American producers and Amer- ican labor to help prevent the import- ers from securing their own value on imports into this country and their own classification on foreign merchandise.” — (__FINER USED CARS ) | Now Two Convenient Locations | I 1529 14th St. NW. and 1825 14th St. N.W.

J. 308 STAR, WASHINGTON, MEETING CALLED | ON SOVIET ISSUE All Sects to Participate in Service for Persecuted Russians. Clergy and members of all religious bodies in the National Capital were in- vited in an announcement authorized by Right Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washington, to participate in a mass meeting next Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock in Constitution Hall “to express deep and understanding sym- pathy for those of our brethren in Rus- sia who are suifering persecution for their religious conviction.” Bishop Freeman will preside at the meeting and make a brief introductory address. The principal speaker will be Dr. Edmund A. Walsh, S. J., Jesult priest, and vice president of Georgetown Uni- versity and regent of the School of For- eign Service. Dr. Walsh is considered one of the best informed men in the United States on present-day conditions in Russia. Saved Life of Churchman. During the religious persecutions sev- eral years ago, when Archbishops Butchkevitch and Cieplak were both condemned to death, Dr.’ Walsh, then in Russia as director of Papal relief work, was able to save the life of the latter. He knows personally many of the great bolshevik leaders, and in recent years has made an intensive study of the anti-religious policy of the | Soviet Union. He is also the author of an outstanding book on the fall of the | Russian empire. According to the tentative program made public by Bishop Freeman, the invocation will be delivered by Rev. Joseph R. Sizoo, pastor of the New York Avenue Presb; Church, and the scripture lesson will be read by Dr. Abram Simon &L the Washington Hebrew Congregation. Rev. Ze Barney T. Phillips, rector of D.
