Has Retarded Peoples
Hard Rubber Co.
The New actory In the
EJ East End.
How Colombia's Rubber Has
Been Wasted.

The plant of the Peoples Hard Rub
ber will not be in operation as early
as was expected. There has been
delay in securing building material
and the work has been retarded. At
the company's Office it was stated that
t was not known just when the fac
tory could be put in operation.
Messrs. Haber, Stein and others In
terested in the new rubber factory for
East Akron, have lately held con-
ference with Architect F. o. Weary,
regarding plans for the plant. These
are now being prepared. The capacity
of the shop will be about half that
of the Buckeye Rubber Co.. it is said.
The new company plans to begin on a
somewhat smaller scale than certain
reports have stated, but plans to grow
and will no doubt do so.
That the rubber sesources OF Col
ombia have been wasted by natives
cutting down trees for rubber instead
of tapping them, there seems to be
no doubt. The India Rubber World
says: The rapid decline in the Coloml
bian production of rubber gave no
concern to consumers, for the rea-
son that discoveries of rubber were
being made elsewhere at rate which
gave a steady impetus to the worlds
total production. New fields have
been opened constantly elsewhere in
Eouth America, and the enormous out
put from Africa has occurred almost
wholly since the palmy days of rub
ber collection in Colombia.
But the situation in Colombia is
referred to here as affording an object
lesson which, ultimately. must be con-
sidered seriously throughout the rub
ber world. The caucheros Of Colombia
had no sooner devastated the richer
and more accessible rubber districts
Of that country, than they descended
TO Ecuador, and, following the prin-
cipal streams, repeated their work of
destruction In that country. Thence
they entered Peru, Bolivia and eastern
Brazil-everywhere without molesta'
ton, carrying on the work Of extin'
gushing the rubber tree.
Eleven years ago the United States
consul at Para, Major Kerbey, re
ported to his government:
The Peruvian rubber or cauchc
forest are already fast disappearing
and the nearest are now far away
The practice of telling the tree tt
collect the rubber has destroyed al
the trees near the rivers, except fal
up OH the Ucayali and Javary rivers
It is affirmed that extensive tracts
of forests have not yet been touched
but that they are difficult of access OF
account of the distance from th
rivers and the lack of roads, 1t 4
perfectly safe to assert that In tn
near future all the available cauch
forests of Peru will have disappeare,
unless other methods are speedil.

that Congress has power at any time TO
take the constitution out Of the terri
tories. This may not even need the for
mality of enactment, as a special sub
SeQuent statute repugnant TO a prior
general statute obviously repeeIs the
latter (the Cherokee tobacco case. II
Wall, G16), and therefore, according tc
the other side, Congress must have
right tomorrow to create an order OF

after Congress- had by joint resolution
annexed the islands as part of the
territory of the United States it had
certainly legislated enough to make
them cease to be foreign.
Mr.. Smith cited a treasury decision oil
April II, 1900, holding that Porto Rico
was not a foreign country within the
meaning of the drawback clause OF the
Dingfey law and asked why Hawaii
should have been cons. dered a foreign
country at that time.
The provision Of the annexation act
which continued in force the customs
regulations of the republic vas clear
violation of the uniformity clause OF
the Constitution. In case the islands
were considered foreign. he said, any
tax collected there upon goods coming
from this country would be in effect an
