Other changes la the cotton

The paragraph covering cotton cloth

Payne "Joker' Restored.
The original provision of the Payne
bill providing for the method by
which the count Of threads in cotton
cloth should be determined. and which
was alleged to be "joker.' which
would increase the duty on cotton

has been practically restored.
The only exception made in the pro.
vision SO far as the count Of threads
Is concerned. is the requirement that
each ply Of two-or-more-ply thread
shall be couIsted as thread. The
ways and means committee, claiming
that this provision has been put in
the Payne bill without the intention

adoption Of. N amendment by the
