AERONAUTS TO WORK
AROUND FORT MYER
Army Officials Believe Post on Potomac Is Better
Adapted 10 Experiments Than Is the
Post in Nebraska

All aeronautic experimental work by
the Army Signal Corps during the com
ing summer will be done at Fort Myer.
The experiments viii range in scope
from work with the ordinary captive
balloon TO the aeroplant tests by the
Wright brothers and Herring All ex-
periments and tests will be under The
direction Of Lieut.. Frank p. Lahm. His
associates in the work will be L.ieuts X
S. Samberger. R. D Foulois. and John
G. Winter. 1t is probable that several
other officers viii be detailed to aero
nautic work before the tests are con-
cluded.
A special detachment OF signal corps
men, trained in military balIooning.
will assist at the tests The nucleus
will be the ten men formerly in com
mand of Sergeant Ward, who have as
sisted in the aeronautic work for the
last two years.
Experiments this year will be on a
larger scale than ever before. and they
will extend from the latter part of this
month until autumnal equinox. No
work will be done at the station at
Fort Omaha. Neb. All appearances at
this post. constructed especially for

COMMERCE LAWS
SUBJECT OF LETTER
WickerSham Tells of Loop
hole Which Gives Pack
erS Immunity.

4 letter received by the Interst2 te
Commerce Commission today from A.
torney General wickersham bearing
upon the Immunity bath which he
has Just given to the Chicago beef
packers for an Illegal system of over
charges in claim adjustments, has
started the commissioners and their ex-
perts upon close inspection Of the
Interstate commerce law, with a view
Of meeting, if possible, the recon-
mendations Of the Attorney General.
In so far as the commission has been
able to discover, there is nothing in the
law giving 1t the power to prescribe the
character Of the investigation to be
made by railroads OF claims for
damages for loss of property during
Transportation. But Il will study very
carefully section 20. under which the
Attorney General seems to find author
ity for his action. That section gives
the commission the power, in its dis
erection. to prescribe the form OF ac-
counts. but there does not appear to be
any authority to either fix a value upon
the goods carried by the railroads or
to require railroads to prepare a sched-
ule OF values upon commodities, tire
value OF which fiuctuates with the
market
Although not a word can be obtained
from the members Of the commission,
on criticism of the Governments act
in relieving the beef packers from fur
Their liability in a practice which would,
according to the Attorney General,
have been held to be rebating IL the
amount received bv the packers had not
been ''inconsequential in comparison
with the total freight charges annually
paid to the railroads." IL Is the impress
sion that the commissioners would have
held the packers TO a strict compliance
with the law If the question had
been left 70 them
The abandonment of the Federal in
vestigation in this case has revived the
talk that the policy of the new Adj
ministration, in its antitrust and re-
batting cases. will be TO put on the soft
pedal and warn tranSgressOrS against
the continuance of Illegal practices in
preference to prosecutions
According to the view of those pub
lie men who have carefully studied the
Attorney Generals letter and the in
terstate commerce law, there can be no
remedy for such offenses other than
prosecution or an amendment Of the
law by Congress.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1909-04-12

and aeroplane work Fort NIyer has the
advantage Of convenient location.
The big Baldwin Dirigtble No. 1 is now
at Fort Myer. Within the next week
or two it viii be unpacked and assem-
bled. reNdy for use as soon as the
weather modihes and the prevalent
early spr.ag winds subside. The first
flight of me season will probably be
made with the dirigible, weather permit
ting. If conditions continue unfayorable
for its operation, Lieutenant Lahm will
do some experimenting with Balloon No.
10. in which he was so successful last
year. The two new free balloons pur-
chased from Captain Baldwin with the
6irigible will also be tried out.
The Wright brothers VIII be in Wash
ington with their aeroplane not later
than June l. Herring is also due by
that time, but Signal Corps officers are
not filled with great assurance that he
VIII present an original machine Of his
own. There mas been some talk OF his
either delivering the Silver Dart, or a
Wright machine, on his contract.
in view Of the decision of General
Alien to cOnfine all aeronautic work to
Fort Myer, it is considered probable
that CAPTAIN Chandler viii be ordered

future

show just how much of an imported
article goes into the manufacture OF the
goods he exports, and that, therefore,
he may get his rebate If he uses mate
rails of equal value. It is not even
necessary that he should use the same
kind of material; if tire cost of the
article is the same the provisions Of
the law have been met and the Treas
Ury is called upon to yield up the
amount Of duty It collected. For exam
pie:
A chocolate manufacturer might i'm
port thousand tons of crude sugar
10 be used exclusively ia the American
markets. He pays a duty on his i'm
pCrtation. Should he, within the next
three years export materials containing
chased in the United States. he could
go TO the Treasury with his import GER
tificates and withdraw the money paid
for his imported sugar, despite the fact
that that particular sugar did not
enter into the manufacture of the ar
ticles which he exported.
Harm Is Predicted.
Isiness men who are members of
the House. and who have given the sub
jeot much thought, predict that the
harm which will be worked by the pro-
vision is almost unbelievable. 1t will
place a premium on the purchase Of
law AltdAtA lsAAS hbiOdn a. pLtNtS NAiACii
the producer of the same raw mate
rails in the United States cannot meet,
and therefore work to the detriment
of the home industry.
1t will give the manufacturer who ex-
ports O tremendous advantage over the
manufacturer who sells in the domestic
market exclusively, and who viii have
to pay duty on the same raw ma
terial that his competitor gets duty
free.
TIE third and most important result
OF such a law would be that ii would
make * absolutely impossible TO esti-
mate the amount of revenue which the
Government may realize on its imports,
and it is predicted that the drain on
the Treasury will be so great that Con-
SreSs VIII have to pass a law modify
ing the drawback provision.
Tobacco an Example.
Another example of hoiv the draw
back system will work is seen in the
case of tobacco. great amount of
unmanufactured tobacco is imported
into this country which goes into
7nufactures.
Upon this tobacco, Of course, a duty
Is paid, and a rebate check is issued
against it. This country exports a
great many cigarettes and under the
provisions of the Payne bill any man.
ufacturer of cigarettes can pull down
the duty he paid on his imported to-
baccO used for domestic consumption
by shipping abroad domestic cigar
cites equal in value to the amount OF
the raw material imported.

DRAWBACK PROVISION
LOOSE, SAY EXPERTS
Payne Tariff Bill, 1t Is Said Permits Importers to Get
Rebate on Home Produced Ex-
ported Goods

Unless some watchdog of the Treasury
In the Senate makes a fight against the
drawback provision of the Payne tariff
bill the Government, when the bill be-
comes a law, viii be called upon TO make
some enormous expenditures. A careful
study of the paragraph. according to
Capital experts on the subject, discloses
the fact that an American manufac-
turer can draw from the Treasury the
duty he paid on imported articles. pro-
vided ne exports goods equal TO the
amount of those imported. It is not
even necessary that the articles manu-
featured for expectation contain one
particle OF the goods imported.
The drawback provision in the bill
reads as follows:
ION the expectation of articles
manufactured or produced in the
United States. either in whole or in
part of imported materials, or from
domestic mat erials of equal quantity
and productive manufacturing quail
ity and value. such question TO be
determined by the Secretary of the
Treasury, there shall be allowed a
drawback equal in amount to the
duties paid on the imported mater
ials used. or where domestic mater
ialS are used, to the duties paid on
the equivalent of imported materials,
less the leEdl QGQuCIlOn OF one per
cent. Provided. That the eXpOTta-
ton shall be made within three years
after the importation of the foreign
material used or checked against"
Condition to Arise.
The real condition which will arise
unoe. the new drawback provision, say
the experts. is this:
An American manufacturer might i'm
port $4,000 worth OF cutlery from Eng
land with the express purpose Of using
It in the American market. Under the
drawback provision of the Dingley
law he would be compelled 10 pay the
regulation duty and could not in any
possible way get a rebate.
The Payne bill, however, works in an
entirely different manner. The manu-
facturer could import $4,000 worth OF
cutlery, pay duty on it. sell 1t in the
American market: then ship $40, 00C
worth Of his own product abroad and
go 10 the Treasury Department and
draw down the duty paid on the i'm
ported articles which were sold in the
United States, merely because az
equivalent in value or quantity lPC
been exported. Under the Dingley Law
the manufacturer had to furnish proof
of his exports before his claim for 2
drawback would be recognized
Theory of the Bill
The theory on which the Payne hi!
works in this connection is that 1t is :
difficult matter for a manufacturer tc
