' The senate had another eleven-hosession today with the tariff bill, but again made comparatively little progress- - Its mostSS Imto portant act on was the approval, 2$, of a committee amendment proposing to remove ammonium nitrate from the free list and tp make it dutiable at 1 cent a pound, Four Republicans, Borah, Idaho; Capper, Kansas; Da Follette, Wisconsin, and Norrlsr Nebraska, voted 'agxtnst the amendment, and two Democrats, Broussard, Louisiana, and Kendrick, Wyoming, supported it Explaining the amendment Senator Republican. North Dakota, in charge of the bill, ammonium nitrate was one item on which the committee had "wobbled,' proposing first that It be on the free list. He- - explained that this item was regarded me being in the twilight lone" between the free list and the protection list, and told the senate that the placing of a duty on it would make necessary a compensatory duty on ex. . plosives. After the vote Senator King, Demo-ca- t, Utah, who led the fight against the proposal, said he wanted to congratulate the Republicans of the agriculture-tari- ff bloc 'for- standing by the' farmers, and others who use explosives and dynamite and for making this present to the trusts. "Senator Frelinghuysen of New Jersey, a Republican of the finance committee, urged the amendment declaring that the duty was necessary to protect from the German nitrate trust the nltratd industry built up In this countrv during the war. He added that the Issues would havs a bearing on the Muscle Shoals project. At the suggestion of Senator Simmons, Democrat, North Carolina the senate deferred action on ammonium phosphate and ammonium sulphate. Senator Simmons said consideration of these items st this time would open up the whole fight over free fertiliser materials and that time would be aaved by postponed action until the senate reached the potash ached-ul- e with Its proposals for duties on that commodity. Senator Gooding. Republican, Idaho, chairman or the Republican agricultural tariff bloc, made his first address In the senate today on the bill.' He attacked the Underwoodpending Simmons tariff wet, praised the emergency tar.ff law and declared there never had been a time in the history of the when we needed protection morecountry than we do today to safeguard out ports from importations of cheap foreign project' Asserting that the Democratic was more of a free trade party now party than with a touch of black. some to supply needs for your home, your sum- -' veranda, your personal needs and consplendid dunce to buy lovely gifts for just , price.
