RAPS At STANDARD
AND STEEL TRUST
A Resolution Aimed at These
MonopoIies introduced in
House Yesterday.
CONCERNS PRESENT RATES
REPRESENTATIVE WILLIAMS
THINKS PARAFFIN SHOULD
COME INTO THE UNITED
STATES FREE OF DUTY.


Washington, June 25.-A resolution
aimed at the Standard Oil and at the
steel trust, was introduced in the
House by Representative Williams,
(Miss.), he minrity leader today. 1t
calls upon the secretary of the treas
ury for information bearing on the
subject of additional duty imposed on
cold-rolled steel of one cent per pound
and upon the duty on paraffin which
is now assessed at the Russian rate
which is high one.
1t is contended that paraffin should
come in free because although made
from Russian products, it is imported
from Belgium. 1t should come in
free under the law because Belgium
admits American parafiin free. NOT to
admit it free, Mr.. Williams contends,
is solely for the benefit of the Stand
ard Oil Company. The additional
duty on coldrolled steel,Mr Williams
contends, is illegally imposed, and he
holds it to be rebating in favor of the
steel trust.
