by employing a larger organization
and maintaining much capital and

Them" continues the statement.
Advantages Cited
The possibility of borrowing money
more cheaply abroad and the encour"
agement given bv the German govern
ment to expectation of merchandise are
cited as an advantage under which
these concerns work.
Mr.. Payne asserted that scores Of pc
titions had been received by the COM
mittee asking that the increased duties
be retained in order that the working
people of the country might make the
stockings used in the United States.
Increased
duties on women's gloves were justin
able for the purposes of protection and
revenue. He cited the conditions re-
sulting from the protection afforded
the American manufacturers of mems
gloves by the Dingley bill.
prior to 1894 they were making or
10 per cent of the mems gloves" he
said "but they said that the duty was
so low that they were being driven out
of business Today they demonstrate
to us that they are making over 80 per
cent of the mems gloves worn in this
country, having redeemed their prom
Use. and the cost to the consumer is
much less than it was prior to 1894.
"They came before the committee
early in the hearing and proved to us
that it cost no more and required no
more skill to make a woman's glove
than a mans, and claimed that if the
same rate of duty was given them, in
time they would make the same per-
centage of women's gloves, and that
this, industry would employ at least
80, 900 people"
Causes Lively Debate
A lively discussion was precipitated
over the amendment by Mr.. Scott OF
Kansas to fix duty of 10 per cent
ad valorem on raw hides, which was
finally lost on division, 106 to Is.
Among those supporting the amend
ment was Mr. Burleson, Democrat, of
Texas, who said that evidently the
amendment suggested the only way to
get cheaper boots and shoes.
Referring to Mr.. Clark of Florida,
but without mentioning his name, he
declared the position he had taken

WASHINGTON, April e.-Accusing
the largo department stores of having

en- and "hystericaI men" against the In
creased duties provided by the Payne
tariff on women's gloves and hosiery,
Representative Payne today, In state
ment which will be printed In the Con-
gressional Record, asserted that the Inn
porters who oppose the duties were in
terested in firms abroad which make
gloves and hosiery.
He presented various arguments In
an effort to justify the increased rates,
contending that the difference In cost OF
labor In the United States and abroad
was not covered by the duties In the
Dingley law.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CHILDREN
BRING GIFTS FOR POOR
Salvation Army and Training School
Profit by BeIated Christmas
Celebration

PASADENA. Dec. 2s.-Enough sup
plies to feed several poor families for
a year, though the diet might be con-
sidered d bit one-sided, came from the
classes Of the Westside Congregational
church Sunday school late this after
noon at a belated Christmas celebra-
ton. Each class brought some article
like box of apples, a sack of flour On
a basket of potatoes for the poor, and
the result was that the 200 odd young
people literally carried in supplies by
the wagon load.
The committee in charge, consisting
of Mrs. Thayer, Miss Salmon, Miss Ty-
Ter and Miss Alice Chaplin, planned to
make the children appreciate that there
is a blessing in giving more potent
than in receiving. That was why the
children brought gifts as well as took
them away. The exercises were
held in the church auditorium, and
then the gathering adjourned to the
Sunday school room, where there were
two trees, box of candy and a dish of
ice cream and cake for each child and
an especially well regulated postoffice,
for the postmaster, Santa Claus, had
a gift for each and every child.
The contributions brought by the
children will 90 to the Salvation Army
and the Children's Training school.
