AWAITING REPORT OF TARIFF
BOARD

The tariff board has announced that
it will submit its report to President
Taft on the first of the coming month,
and its conclusions on the subject of
wool tariff is being awaited with great
interest in this section of the country.
1t is not probable that the board
will include any recommendations in
its report, for that is the sole preroga-
tive OF the president, in his message
to congress. In his Cheyenne speech
Mr.. Taft stated that upon receipt of
the report of the tariff board he would
Immediately transmit a message to
congress, with such recommendations
as he felt were jutified by facts and
figures gathered in all parts of the
world. He also stated that he believed
in protecting the manufacturer and
producer, at least to the extent of the
difference in cost of production and
manufacturing at home and abroad.
While no information has been re
ceived from an authoritative source as
to he probable report of the tariff
board on the wool question, it is i'm
probable hat President Taft, in view
of his remarks above quoted, will see
his way clear to recommend to con-
gress a reduction in the duties at pres
emit imposed by schedule X.

adopted on the occasion of the French
invasion of 1872. The process Of in
undating the country then was mat

the mere turn of a KEY at The Hague.

The hospital was a private institu-

by Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Draper, its
owners, who were pllilantnropists.

enforcement of international Copy
right to Be Commenced.

The American Red Cross has re-
auested the solicitor general of the
United States to advise it as to the
proper steps for the enforcement OF
that section of its federal charter re-
lating to the use of its emblem and
name for advertising purposes by
manufacturers, retailers, physicians,
charitable organizations, BARRIERS and
others.
Tt is believed that many persons who
use the emblem or the name of the
Red Cross for advertising purposes do
so in ignorance that such use is for
hidden by law, with penalties for VIC
iation which in aggravated cases may
be fine of $500 and imprisonment for
one year.
The United States has treaty with
all the civilized governments of the
world to prevent the use of the EN-
blem and name of the Red Cross ex'
cent as above stated, and this law Is
| intended as a means of complying
with the terms of the treaty.
There are evidences that public sen
timent is responding to this movement
to respect the peculiar significance Of
the Red Cross and to protect it against
abuse. The American Medical asso
citation, the American Hospital asso
citation and the Association of Military
Surgeons have put themselves on rec
ord in favor Of the movement. Am
balances in New York have given III
the Red Cross and have adopted tn,
green st. Andrews cross instead. TIT
Retail Druggists association and tn
Master BARRIERS association have pass
ed resolutions urging their member
to refrain from the use of the sym
| Dol of the Red Cross.
From many sources are coming pro
tests against the use of this emblem
