TOBACCO TRADES
EXPOSITION IN NEW YORK

New York, Sept 3.-Persons who
believe tobacco to be "a filthy weed"
will carefully avoid Madison Square
this week, where the second National
Tobacco Trades exposition was OPEN
ed today. The exhibits are the most
extensive of their kind ever shown,
and illustrate the evolution Of the mar
cotic from the seed to the various
products. Smoking contests, to be held
eSvh afternoon and evening, will be
a novel feature of the exposition.
and handsome prizes will be awarded
the winners.
Uncle Sam has given official cognl-
zance of the show by sending a com
prehensive exhibit from the depart
ment Of agriculture, including smok-
ing and testing machines, seed sepa-
ratoFs, seed bed sterllizers and the
paraphernalia used by the govern
ment experts in their researches and
experiments These experts are scat
tered throughout the tobacco growing
sections, and the government recon-
penses the grower In case Of loss
through the experiments of the ex-
certs.
Potted plants of every variety Of to-
bacco are included among the exhibits
at the exposition There Is also an
extensive exhibit of the numerous
kinds Of machinery used in the man
ufacture of smoking and chewing to-
baccos, cigars and cigarettes. including
a cigarette machine i'm motion which
turns out thousands of the paper "cof-
fin nails" every day. Several Turk
ish cigarette makers, both men and
girls, clad in their native costumes,
also illustrate the methods OF hand
manufacture. A rare and unique dis
play of pipes of all countries and

national action regarding railway
transportation, and will necessitate
the creation by the nation of the great
corporations which are to handle this
great commerce.
Under national Incorporation, the
questions relating to inland water
ways, railway and ocean transporta-
ton will be solved. There will be
great corporations, whose lines will
extend from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific, and others whose lines will ex-
tend from the lakes to the gulf. Such
corporations will, in transporting
terways, through steamboats, and
They will own great steamship lines,
which will carry our products to all
the markets of the world. They will,
subject to the approval of the inter-
state commerce commission, be ena-
bled to make such joint rates by land
and sea as will make their ships prof
table, notwithstanding the increased
cost of American construction and adj
ministration. There will be no need OF
ship subsidy to advance our merchant
marine. These corporations will be
under full governmental control.
Their issue of stock and bonds will
be subject to the approval of national
officials. The national legislation COW
ering them will guard not only the in
terests of the shippers and producers,
but also the interests of the railway
investor, whose investments should be
stable and should be free from the ca
price of the stock market. 1t will
embrace the relations between the
railroads and their employees. provid
ing for the Cancellation of disputes and
the adjustment of difficulties. 1t will
recognize the fact that they are pub
lie servants, entitled to q fair compen-
sation for their service. 1t will frankly
recognize the economic necessity of
consolidation and combination, and
the essentially monopolistic character
of the business and will regulate con-
solidation, combination and monopoly
with true regard for the interests of
the public served by it, the property
rights of the capital employed in It,
and the human rights of the labor en-
ployed by it.
I'VE cannot take a broad view of
the powers of the national govern
ment as related to carriers by water
and refuse to recognize those powers
as relating to carriers by mail. Trans
portation is a national question. The
common carriers engaged In Interstate
and foreign commerce must be ma
tional agents. The laws creating them
must be the laws of the nation. The
regulations which control them must
be the regulations of the nation"
The address on the conservation Of
the forest resources of the nation was
delivered by Clifford Pinchot, United
States forester. Later there were re-
sponses by representatives of the ma
tional organization. Another feature
of the morning session was an ad-
dress on the national forest policy by
former Governor Pardee of California.
The afternoon session was devoted
principally to addresses. DIR. w. j..
Magee of the federal bureau of soils.
and one of the members of the inland
waterways commission was one of the
principal speakers.

NEW DENATURED ALCOHOL.
LAW BECOMES EFFECTIVE

washington. Sept. New laws
regulating the manufacture Of dena-
tured alcohol. and authorizing the es-
tablishment Of central denaturing
bonded warehouses other than those
at distIlleries. went into effect today
IT is hoped by government officials
that the industry will be given impe-
tus by the new regulations. Up 10 this
time the results under the denatured
alcohol law have been disappointing.
The measure became operative jan
uary l. OF this year. and during the
first month 573,564 gallons OF dena-
tured alcohol were manufactured.
During the following month the pro-
duetIon was only 294 500 gallons. and
since then the output has steadily de-
creased until now Il averages about
175.000 gallons a month.
on the face Of the statistics the con-
stantly lowering production Is not en-
couraglng TO the believers In denatur-
ed alcohol, although they have not
yet given up hope. Il Is the belief
of the internal revenue officers that
the use OF alcohol will gradually be-
come more general. and that the
amended law will result In the cstab-
llshment Of small manufacturing
plants all over the country.
