WHAT CONGRESS HAS
NEGLECTED TO DO
BY MILO E. WESTBRoOKE

XIHEN the foundation of our Govern
w ment was laid out, back in 1887 the
Constitution of the United States of Amer
lea, Article l, Section g. Paragraph 5, gave
the legislative department authority as
follows:
The Congress shall have power to coin
money. regulate the value thereof, and Of
foreign coin. and fix the standard of 7Oeights and
measures.
Under the power invested in Congress by
the Constitution, our Government CONS
money, which has been the medium OF ex
change for more than a century; but, for
some reason or other, it has never taken it
upon itself to "fix the standard of weights
and measures. This results in more or less
confusion, due to the fact that many of the
States have fixed the standards of weights
and measures and in a more or less degree
are at variance with one another. For oX-
ample, the laws of Massachusetts, require
that when cranberries are sold by the bushe
thirty-two pounds shall constitute a bushcl
while Michigan requires forty pounds tor
bushel. Thus it may be seen that man
NAV ship ten bushels of cranberries from
Massachusetts, to Michigan. and as soon as
they enter the latter State there are only
eight bushels.
In Nevada fifty-six pounds constitute the
weight of bushel of tomatoes; while in
Missouri and Oklahoma only forty
pounds are necessary to make bushel. ! hus
if a man should ship ten bushels of tomatoes
from Nevada to either Oklahoma or Mis-
sour. as soon as they cross the State
line there would be twelve and four-ninths
bushels.
/ he tariff act Of 1909, to facilitate the col
lccting of customs, fixed certain standards
Of weights and measures, among which IS
fifty-seven pounds to a bushel of onions.
A man may pay duty to the Collector at the
port Of New York for ten bushels of onions,
and ship them into Maine, New Hampshire,
Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, North
Dakota, Minnesota, or South Dakota, and as
soon as they enter any of these States he has
eleven bushels, because the State laws re-
quire only fifty-two pounds to the bushel.
Let him ship the same quantity of onions
into Indiana, and he will have nearly twelve
bushels as forty-eight pounds are all that IS
required to a bushel in that State. In Penn
svlvania and Rhode Island, he would have
eleven and two-fifths bushels, because fifty
pounds constitute the weight of a bllShel OF
onions there. Some States do not require
any particular weight to the bushel; while
others require fifty-four, fifty-three, or fifty
SIX pounds.
Other cases where confusion arises in in
terstate commerce are that some States re-
quire "heaped MEASURE others Struck
measure the heap sometimes being re-
quired to be "as high as the article will adj
nit, and elsewhere "as high as may be

A harmless remedy, made from COM

care for teeth to keep them from dis

metics and creams to improve the COM
plexion, and yet neglect your hair,
when gray hair is even more ~conspicu-
Gus and suggestive of age than
wrinkles or a poor complexion? OF
the two, it is easier to preserve the
natural color and beauty Of the hair
than it is to have a good complexion.
All that is necessary is the occasion
