![["The document from SCHWABE COL acknowledges the receipt of a letter from Loose-Wiles Biscuit Company regarding a provision in Senate Bill 1270 that would allow the Secretary of Agriculture to contract for Cuban Sugar crop one year in advance. The document states that the provision was deleted from the bill by the Senate and the House did not have the opportunity to act on it. Therefore, the provision is not in the bill that is now in the hands of the President for signature.
