EXPERTS UNDERTAKE TO
Determine WHAT is BEER
Brewers and Barley Raisers Present
at Opening Session of the
Pure Food Board.

Having long ago settled the vexed prob
lem of What is whisky the Agricul-
tural Depar tments board of food and
drug inspection, headed by DR.. Harvey
". Wiley. today undertook to determine
What is BEER
Manufacturers Of beer and other malt
beverages and barley raisers from ali
over the country are here attending the
hearing conducted by the board. and
many others have sent their views by
mail
The object of the boards inquiry is to
bring malt liquors within the scope of
the pure food and drug act and to deter
mine just what shall and what shall not
be contained in liquids sold under the
labels lager beer book beer. ale.
porter. stout and malt extract. The board
has propounded a series of questions as to
ingredients fermentine, coloring. car
Donating, etc. The application Of foreign
names to domestic products also is to be
inquired into.
Barley raisers and maltsters are respon-
sible for this effort to determine What
is beer:" The Consumers National

Equity, the latter composed largely Of
farmers. are aiding in the movement.
1t is claimed that much Of the beer
sold in this country is made OF corn or

names lead consumers to think them.

TO SETTLE OLD CLAIMS.
Over 81, 900 900 Involved in British
American Treaty..

The claims OF American citizens against
Great Britain, which will be arbitrated
under the recently negotiated pecuniary
claims treaty between the United States
and Great Britain, amount to S4330On
while those of British subjects against
the United States total 81 966, coo
These claims cover q great variety OF
matters. Some OF them are a century
old. and have been the subject OF diplo-
matte negotiation for generations. BY the
irony of fate the original claimants in
many cases are dead, and whatever bene-
fits are derived from the arbitration will
fnure to their descendants.
One of the most famous claims to be
arbitrated is that Of the heirs OF William
Webster. an American citizen. who set
tied in New Zealand in 1885, prior to the
proclamation of British sovereignty. Web
ster claimed title by purchase from the
dicate that he paid about $4,000 for this
land. The British government has recog-
nized the validity of Webster's title to
only 1856 acres, which he had granted
to British subjects. Tie question has
been before the State Department and the
British foreign Office since 1853
Many OF the claims are filled with
tragedy and patiIos. The steps TO settle
all the questions involved by arbitration
is regarded by both governments as a.
happy climax to a. long period of veXa-
tious negotiations.

HISTORY Of THE BEET
AS A SUGAR PRODUCER
DEGREES of Emperor Napoleon
Figure in Hearing Before
House Committee.

Investigation of the so-called sugar
trust was resumed by the House COM
mittee today. Chairman Hardwick an
nounced that he was mistaken in his re-
cent statement that the Havemeyer es-
tate owned stock in the California Ha-
waiian Sugar Company.
Truman G. Palmer, secretary of the
American Beet Sugar association. testi-
fed regarding the history Of the beet
sugar industry. He said that while only
4.35 per cent Of the worlds supply OF
sugar came from beets in 1S4O. the in
dustry developed SO rapidly that in 1900
beets furnished t2 per cent.
Falls Off Without Bounty.
In 1910 the percentage had dropped to
5o1s per cent, he said, as a result Of the
agreement of European countries at the
Brussels conference in 1902 TO stop
bounties on beet growing.
Running back as far as Napoleon S
time. Mr.. Palmer recalled the French
ed1ct of 1911, requiring French farmers
to plant 10000 acres of beets because
or the benefit of beet growing to the
soil. but Chairman Hardwick had some
recollections along that line, and said
Napoleon forced beet production be-
cause cane countries were blockaded
against him. Mr.. Palmer then suggest

WHAT MEXICO NEEDS.
Education One of Greatest Necessi-
ties, Thinks Ambassador Wilson.

The verbal reports that Ambass a dor
Henry Lane Wilson has made to the
President and Secretary Knox regarding
conditions in Mexico are on the whole
very encouraging. The ambassador found
that number OF the poems were charged
with exaggerated ideas as to the per-
sonal benefits they would realize from
the revolution. Naturally it has been
somewhat difficult for the provisional
government to reconcile them to the fact
that there cannot be q wholesale seques-
tration of private lands and their division
on agrarian principles among the popu-
lace. With an assurance that non-tax-
able private estates OF vast size are here
after to bear their share of the burden of
the maintenance Of the government, 1t is
believed that complaints against that
long-standing evil in the end will be sat
isf1ed
The crying need of the Mexicans is
larger measure of public education. Mr..
Wilson is of the opinion that even the
most ignorant Mexican ia thoroughly fit
ted to receive an education which will,
make him a better citizen in every re-
spect. 1t is understood to be the policy
of Madero, should he be elected president,
to urge upon the Mexican congress an
immediate enlargement Of the present
limited system of state schools.

tanned in such shipments. as the case
might be. The court holds that the pro-
