LIMIT IS URGED FOR PHILIPPINE SUGAR IMPORTS U. S. Growers Ask Quota of 700,000 Tons for. Islands. Bu T nitr a Pm iWASHINGTON. June 28.—Limitation ot Philippine sugar Imports into this country to 700,000 tons a year, with a preferential tariff rate of 30 per cent on imports above that amount was urged before the senate finance committee today by David A. Pipes, president of the American Sugar Cane League. Pipe's expressed concern over the possibility of expansion of Philippine sugar imports. ‘‘lt is dangerous in the extreme to leave the Philippine importation wide open.” he said. The witness supported the proposal for a 3-cent world rate on sugar'which would amount to a preferential duty of 2.4 cents against Cuba. He proposed, however, that when the world sugar price falls below 2.5 cents a pound an additional duty should be levied, equal to the amount the price falls below 2.5 cents. Pipes opposed proposals previously suggested before the committee for a sliding scale based on the United States selling price. Out of 132 sugar mills in louisiana sixty-five are now idle. Pipes declared. He testified that he did not believe any of them had made money during the last five years.
