COTTON SEED OIL MEN worry.
Fear French win Greatly Increas

Fear French VIII Greatly Increase
- So. Duty.
Washington. Nov. 16.-TheAmerican
cotton seed oil interests Is greatly
perturbed over the prospect that the
French Parliament will enact legisia-
ton greatly Increasing the duty on
cotton seed oil which Is almost exciu-
sively an American product. The
American Cotton Oil Company has
taken the matter up with the State
Department representing that the
French export tariff commission has
already recommended to the Parlia-
ment that this action be taken and that
the Parliament seems greatly inclined
to favor this course.
According to !nforma ton received
here the plan of the French Govern
ment Is to greatly increase both its
maximum and minimum rates on cot
ton seed oil so that should this Gov
eminent. through negotiations. become
entitled to the minimum rates. the pro-
ducers in this country would still be
confronted with practically prohi-
bitive rate In any event, the duty
would be so high as to practically pre-
vent the competition of American cot
ton seed oil with peanut and other
similar oils largely produced In the
French colonies.
In view Of these representations. the
State Department has been obliged to
call the attention of the French Gov
eminent to this discriminatory attitude
in the expectation that he French Gov
eminent may reconsider its purpose.
The State Department mas also been
obliged to make vigorous representa-
lions to the Government of Roumania,
which. 1t is learned. proposes to assess
a double duty on agricultural machin-

THINK A1rrMPT Is BnING MADE
no LIMIT P0WEN3.


washington, Nov fe-Because OF the
,contention OF many of the members
that an attempt was being made to
limit the power OF state railway COM
missioners, an acrimonious discussion
marked the opening OF the annual
convention OF the national association
OF railway commissioners here today.
The discussion arose over the recon-
fr1endstion Of Committee that the
convention endorse the idea OF a
federal Slaw giving the Interstate COM
rnerce commission authority TO pre-
scribe uniformity In classification for
Interstate traffic and urging state
commissioners to make exceptions
sparingiy Commissioners Gothifn. of
Ohio. contender that those who voted
for the report bound themselves TO
maintain the classification fixed By
the communications on Interstate ship
rnents. He was supported by Commits
sioner Burr of Florida. -
Commissioner Clark. of the Inter
state Commerce Commission. and chair
man of the committee which made the
report, declared the Ohio commissioners
was Unfair in placing such an inter-
probation upon the report ~
He said the COMMITTEES simply de-
sired to call attentionto the necessity
OF exceptions not being made.
In. the Southern classification to-
day. SIS per cent are exceptions and So
per cent are the. orisinal. declared Mr.
Clark M II.
The Ohio commissioner wanted the
convention to- strike out a portion Of
the report but he was voted down by
Is to SO. The resolution OF the com
nittee was then adopted. A. III. Smith.
vice. president Of the New York Gem
trail lines spoke on the progress Of the
safety In railroad operation.
Mr.. Smith asked for public co-opera-
tion to reduce the dangers from tres
pass on railroad property. During the
past year. he pointed out, 5000 tres
passers lost their lives
TT seems. OF no avail that thousands
OF the worst class are arrested" he
said One line arrested over 5000
trespasrers during the year and sccur-

washington, Nov 1s.-Acoording to
the records kept by the Technilogic
Department, the Cherry disaster will
rank as the second greatest in the
country. Only one other. that at Mon
ongah. w. Va. In which s56 miners
lost their lives, can furnish a greater
death list. At Monongah. when the
mine was penetrated the bodies of
some who had probably lived forty
eight hours were found. Rescuers
equipped. with helmets and resustitat-
ing apparatus might have saved them
IT is declared
Every rescuer now is equipped
with enough oxygen to keep him alive
in gaseous mine for two hours. The
oxygen is carried In two cylinders on
the back and is feed into the helmet
through rubber tubes. The carbon
dioxide thrown out in the breath Is
caught up in two tanks Of potassium
hydroxide and dissfpated there. There
is medium for carrying the oxygen
in consistent circulation. In addition
TO his own equipment each rescuer
carries tank OF oxygen and an ap-
paratus for resuscitating the victims.
At the government station at Pitts
burg and its branches at Urbana,
Ill, and Knoxville. Ten. as many
as 500 miners have been instructed
in q week in the use OF the apparatus
with the result that three OF the
largest coal companies In Pennsyl-
vania have established stations with
oxygen equipment of their own and
all others are being urged by the
government to do so.
The equipment of mines IN Europe
with the oxygen apparatus has helped
reduce the death rate among miners
there to .015 per cent of those en-
pioyed. In the United States the
death rate Is .o4s6 OF those employ
