TTB t Pf0 1 faoU M6AM 'V "Washington. Dec. 14. A flat tanff fluty of twenty per cent ad valorem on livestock, cattle hides and fresh and prepared meat was asked by the Senate finance committee today by Colonel I. T. Pryor, of San Antonio, Tex., speak ing for the American National Live stock Association. The rates in the Fordney bill are one cent a pound on cattle under two yeai'3 and one half cents a pound on those over two years with a rate of two cents a pound on dressed beef. Hides are retained on the free list. Air. Pryor said the American cattle industry had to be protected from simi lar industries in Mexico, South Ameri ca and Australia if it was to expand to meet the needs of the country. From cattle the committee turned to lonsr staple cotton. Dwight B. Hear;!. publisher of The Arizona Republican at Phoenix. Ariz., opened the presencation on behalf of the Pima Cotton Growers Association. He urged a duty of twen ty cents a pound on long- staple cbuon as compared to the seven cents i'i the emergency tariff. "It is hoped through this tariff legis lation." said Mr. Heard, "to stabilize the price of American Egyptian cotton at from forty cents to forty-five cents per pound, this justifying the continuo tion of the industry. Confronted with a cost last season of 32 6-10 cents and the importation of Egyptian cotton at 26 cents, the American producer nas naturally made a determined effort to hold his crop until tariff production can be secured. "It is estimated that, if the protec tion asked for is granted, a sufficient acreage will be developed in the South west within the next five years to pro duce all the cotton of this type used by American manufacturers." Mr. Heard told the committee that, aside from the difference in the cost of production of long staple cotton as between the United States and Egypt, the transportation cost, from Alexandria, to New England manufacturing points was $9.90 less per bale than the lowest rate from Phoenix. Ariz., in the center of the American Egyptian district, to the same manufacturing points. S'MATTER POP? SOME SWEET BABY!
