- BASED ON TARIFF | Efforts of Sugar and Cotton | States to End Competition | “1s Behind Independence. ' is BY DAVID LAWRENCE. Back of the effort to let loose of the ippines is a tariff problem and not sentimentalism. The overwhelming vote in the House ovérriding President Hoover's veto is diffectly traceable to the desire of Con- grgssmen from beet sugar and cane sugar growing States to be rid of Philippine competition. ‘Also the competition with cotton bag- given by jute, produced so abun- tly in the Philippines, develcped ad- diional votes for the measure so that l&gflher it may be said that the pro- tegiionist principl® espoused now by bzh parties is responsible for the heavy vofe in favor of independence. : Tariff Is Graduated. #ctually, it would teke 10 years un- the proposed legislation for the Philippines to be freed, but in the in- tefmediate period a graduated tariff goes into effect and this is wiat Rep- tatives from sugar and cotton tes are mostly concerned cbout. cenwhile, if the measure were to begome a law over a veto, the contest ‘would ctffutionality of cllowing the sale cf asgets by Congress without the approval ofthe Americen people thrcugh a spe- o amendment to the Constitution.

The Democratic leadership of the | Senate; headed by Senator Robinson | of Arkencas, is loth to vield to Lcng and to give him the premg of winning such a fight in the nate. The Louisiana “Kingfish,” as he calls him- self, -is a -“frechman” in ths Senate, having taken his ceat in that body less than a yeer ago. The Democratic leadeszhip is thinking not only in terms of the present session of the Senate in dealing with Senator Long, but of what may happen in the nexi Congress and the special session which seems now sure to be called soon after March 4. The unlimited debate rule of the Senate, plus the fact that the present sessicn ends by statute on March 4, has given the Louisiana Sen- ator all the best of the maneuvering up to date.

There are some very influential banking houses that are | opposed to this feature of the bill and are having their effect on the situation.
