At the mame time the report to! the president of the tariff commis aion, which Harding directed to find out whether the tariff was responsi. bie for the price increase, was post [poned until next week because of a sharp division in the commisaton. | Some members, it was stated, be Heve the tarif¢ is in part responsable | while others hold it had nothing to/ do with the rapid in sugar] prices. The commission's meeting with! Harding has been deferred in an ef-| fort to reconcile the difference. The data Seymour wan prepared to givo the cabinet was understood to deal with the handling of sugar imports in New York. Whether it forms the basis for governmental ac. tion was to be discussed by Harding and hly advisers. | CUBAN PRICES _ GOING HIGHER) NEW YORK, April 13.— Cuban to a new FREDERICK & NELSON | FIFTH AVENUE AND PINE STREET FEATURED SATURDAY: | 1,000 Pounds Molasses Kisses SPECIAL 25¢ POUND Wrapped Kisses, made from purest ingredients, automatically pulled, cut and wrapped.
