The duty on squash was Increased from 25 per cent to two cents a pound. Cucumber Proposal Rejected Finance committee amendments to apply a seasonal tariff on egg plant evmunbors-undqr which tbnthreq cent duty during the winter mirths would be cut to one-half a cent were rejected.

Senators Fletcher and Trammell. Democrats. Florida, opposed the seasonal tariff on the same grounds on which they argued successfully against a winter reduction in the levy on tomatoes. Import of these vegetables, they contended, came from Mexico and Cuba during the winter when crops were ready for market and a lower rate at that time would be a discrimination against their state. Approval also was given committee amendments to raise the tariffs on hay from four to five dollars a ton of 2,000 pounds and on straw from one to one dollar and a half a ton.

Some prospects were seen of completing sugar debate before the end of the day. Leaders genet ally, however. held little hope the problem could be dispatched so readily.

Chairman Smoot of the finance committee, is expected to support the 2.90 finance committee rate. Levies on three additional farm product imports were increased last night. The present rate on fresh tomatoes was increased from one-half a cent to three cents a pound; this being the house bill rate as contrasted with a two one-half cent rate proposed by the finance committee.
