FRAUDS IN FOOD MEASURE.

ol weight.
The greatest fraud being perpetrated
on the American consumer TO-DAY is the
selling Of food stuffs BY volume, instead
Of by weight" declared DR.. Harvey ".
Wiley, Chief Of the Bureau Of Chemistry
Of the Department Of Agriculture. in an
address on Foods" last night.
Dr.. Wiley's lecture was given before
the Home and School Association of
Washington Normal School. No. :. in the
Sumner Building, Seventeenth and NJ
streets northwest.
Severely aTaigning the manufactures
who have steadily opposed the amend
ment offered by Representative Mann. Of
Illinois. to the pure food and drug act
10 compel the sale Of foodstufYs nv
weight, Dr. Wiley drew a vivid picture
Of the evils OF the present system, and
Of the persistent efforts OF those who
have the welfare OF the public at heart
70 change the existing order of things in
that respect
Every time Representative Mann has
tried 10 get his amendment passed by
Congress, continued Dr. Wiley. he has
been unable TO set q favorable vote.
WhyE Because greed and selfish man
ufacturers have flooded their Representa-
tives with appeals against the passage
Of the amendment
I don't want to reflect on the whole
body Of manufacturers. but I can't see
how any honest man can sell food mate
rials under weight IN these days OF high
prices Of -four and bread. IL is of the
greatest importance that we should know
how much We are getting for our money.
This is not simple question Of food.
but Of morality.
There is going TO be great revival
in this matter within the next decade.
The campaign is being taken up by news
papers, magazines, societies. and
churches, and now the battle is being
carried with increasing vim into the halls

CITIZENSHIP FOR
PORTO R|CANS
Official Report Urges 1t as an
Act of Justice to Those
Who Desire Ii.
by Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON, December 12-Citi-
zenship, without serious inconvenience
TO the individual, should be extended
to those who desire it in Porto Rico,
according to Gen. Clarence R. Edwards,
chief of the bureau of insular affairs,
in his annual report today to the sec
rotary Of war.
Whether this be done by an act con-
ferring in itself United States citizen
ship in the whole body of citizens of
Porto Rico, or by an act enabling them
by the performance individually Of
some simple preliminary acts to become
American citizens without delay, is a
mere matter of detail for congress to
work out, said General Edwards.
at is hoped that the grant of citi-
zenship may be regarded simply as an
act of justice and performed in an open
and unequivocal manner" concludes
the chief of the bureau
The commerce of the island shows on
the whole a continuous and encourag
ing growth, it is pointed out in the re-
port. The exports for the fiscal year
Just passed amounted in value to over
100000, 900 and the imports to over
S26,000000. The imports from the Uni
ted States amounted to over $23 ,000,-
600.
General Edwards comments at length
~. -, ho
United States, whereby goods from the
Philippines, except rice, may be shipped
to the United States free of duty under
certain limitations.
sit is believed that the people of
the Philippines have every reason to be
content with the new tariffs, and that
There will result from them that pros
perity in the islands which should be
the result of their relation to the Uni
ted States,'' says General Edwards.
"'The net result so far has been to
increase the price paid to the grower
for his leaf tobacco ten per cent. The
price received by the producer of sugar
has increased twenty-five per cent.
These are increases which may be at
tributd wholly TO the true trade rela-
tions, fluctuations in the world mar
kets having been eliminated.
General Edwards says the rate up
to date of the importation into the
United States of Philippine cigars has
been at the rate of about 10000 900
per year, or one-half the limit for free
| admission. The effect on the Amer
lean industry, he adds, of this importa-
tion "may well be judged by the fact
that these cigars may be found only
| with the greatest difficulty.
The imports of the Philippines dur
Ting the last fiscal year, was over $27,-
| 100000. American goods constituted
| seventeen per cent of the total value
| of Philippine imports. General Ed
wards predicts that under the new free
trade conditions this percentage will
| be largely increased.
General Edwards points out that with
the minor exception of the trouble with
the Moro outlay, Jikiri, on Jolo Island,
the constabulary maintained quiet and
order in all parts of the Philippines
without the active intervention of the
army.
