OPPOSE SMOOTH SCHEME TO
SEND STOCKINGS UP IN
NEW TARIFF BILL
Housewives and Mothers the Country
Over to Protest. by Letter to
Conference Committee.

NEW YORK, June 23.-(Special)-
Urging all mothers and housewives to
rise to resent the threatened attempt
of congress in it's conference committee
to raise the price of cotton stockings
by an increased tariff tax hundreds Of
thousands of warning letters were
sent from this city today. That the
stocking trust has almost succeeded in
its bold bid for power to make the
price of these everyday necessities to
all Americans through an increased
tariff has just been reported from
Washington to the leaders of this
widespread women's movement here
Unless the heads and housekeepers of
every family in the land at once file
at the capital their protests against
this tax on the stockings of the poor,
it is declared, the will of the women
of the country in this matter will be
thwarted
Lulled into false sense of security
by the prompt action of the senate in
reducing to its former rate the higher
hosiery tariff, which the house had
been led to raise some 80 per cent, the
women of the land have almost been
pushed into a political pitfall by the
shrewd agents of the stocking trust
at Washington, it is declared While
every consumer was commencing the
senators for delivering the people
from the clutches of one more trust,
it is reported, the men who would fat
ten on the control of the prices which
SO,000,O00 Americans must pay for
their stockings have been actively
working to compel a compromise in

old Dingley rates have furnished
enough protection to double the BUSH

official figures, any such compromise
must enormously increase their pres
