Tho Word "Studio,n

Studio is one Of the many foreign
words that have acclimatized them
selves in the English language. 1t is
a recent import from Italy. unknown
to Johnson's dictionary and apparently
not occurring before the nineteenth
century. but it has supplied a want.
Study" which is the real English for
studio suggests a room for reading
and writing, and "workroom" lacks
distinctveness. The French get along
with ''atelier." which literally means a
place In which small planks are pre-
pared-in other words, a carpenter s
shop.

GOVERNMENT CONTROL
Of SUGAR COMMODITY
Secretary Knox Makes Report
to Congress of Customs
Abroad.

Sugar. universally consumed and uni
versally taxed, is subjected to govern
.ment control and regulation as to price
in almost every country, and to varying
trade methods as well, reported Secre-
tary of State Knox in letter which
President Taft today forwarded to Con-
gress
The letter. important at the time in
connection with the sugar tariff revision
bill which the House ways and means
committee begins framing this week. was
brought out by the House sugar trust
investigating committees request for
foreign data. 1t summarizes consular
reports which Secretary Knox called for
from every part of the world, showing
ternal revenue by means of import duties
and by taxes on sumption in the form
of national excise duties and local or
municipal charges.
General Advance in Price.
Retail prices of sugar, varying even in
different localities in the same country.
generally showed an increase throughout
the world between July and November
last, attributed to the shrinkage in the
Cuban cane crop and prospective short
crease ranged from 1 to : cents a pound,
averaging about = cents on ordinary
white sugar. The great range of price
quotations is shown by the Il cents a
pound charged in Italy and Spain and 5
cents in Glasgow, Scotland.
Secretary Knox said that in Spain.
where the July prices ranged close to 1O
cents, actual decreases even took place
in some cities. In Russia, where large
surplus stock had been carried over from
kept the prices unchanged. The sugar
combination in Sweden. which had been
enforcing high price prior to the general
deficiency in the sugar supply. found 1t
difficult to make increases.
Russia exercises absolute control over
the prices Trade guilds in Japan and
Brazil individually assert the right to
manipulate prices. The Argentine Repub-
lie fixes pr.ces by law. In Canada, Mon
treal refineries control the situation. In
the prices just low enough to make i'm
ports Improbable.
Solely as Source Of Revenue.
The United Kingdom, the Netherlands.
Belgium, Switzerland, Greece and Peru
treat Sugar solely as source of revenue.
Sweden, Roumania, Japan. Mexico, Bra
ziI, Chile and the Union Of South Africa
subject sugar to high import duties to
protect and develop domestic industries
with secondary regard to the revenues.
Russia. Spain, Italy, Canada and Dem
mark treat it as means of fostering ma
tive production and of providing for ma
tional revenues.
Austria Hungary, Germany and France,
signatory to the Brussels conference
which abolished bounties on production,
may be said to form a class by them
selves in their treatment of sugar in re-
lat.on to import duties. Thus, Austria
Hungary, Germany and France hold In
allowance their regular tariff rates in so
far as they exceed the 53 cents a hundred
mounds avoirdupois which the conference
permits as the maximum import duty
allowed above their excise duties Some
of these also remit the excise taxes on
sugar when imported and France and
Portugal give sugar from their colonies

PUBLIC UTILITIES BILL
REPORTED TO SENATE
Accompanied by Brief Report
by Senator GaI|inger Urg-
ing Its Passage.

Senator Gallinger today reported the
Gallinger public utilities bill to the Sem
ate, with the recommendation from the
Senate District committee that it be
passed by the Senate.
A brief report was also submitted, in
which Senator Gallinger says, in behalf
of the committee:
The demand for a public utilities law
for the District of Columbia is almost
universal-the citizens associations
the Board of Trade the Chamber of
Commerce and the citizens generally
favoring it. 1t is along the line of leg
islation in most of the states. The
present bill recognizes the demand as
just one, and attempts to meet every
possible contingency that exists by
placing in the hands of the commission
the power to regulate thoroughly all
the public utilities of the District. If
enacted it will remove from Congress
many troublesome questions that now
engage it's attention, and will provide
a means of settling many controversies
that Congress has not the time to Civ
consideration to. The assistance of the
corporation counsel and the Commits
sieners of the District was utilized in
the framing of the bill. and 1T meets
the approval of those officials, and is
not opposed by the utilities that it
proposes to regulate. The letter of ap-
proval of the Commissioners is ap-
pended"
Two Proposed Amendments.
There are but two proposed amendments
to the bill that are Of any importance.
The first one exempts the Norfolk and
Washington Steamboat Company and all
companies engaged in interstate traffic
upon the Potomac river and Chesapeake
bay from the operations of the law. This
is done for the reason that those COM
panies are under the Jurisdiction of the
interstate commerce commission, and
hence have no proper place in this bill.
1.-The other amendment strikes out the
provision on page "a relating to the
acquisition of stock or bonds in one
corporation by another corporation
engaged in the same or similar busi-
law or unless authorized to do so by
the commission. The code of law for
the District of Columbia provides as
follows: 1T shall not be lawful for
any, company to use any OF their funds
in the purchase of any stock in any
other corporation. -
This provision seems to absolutely pro-
hibit the joint ownership of stock. and
as bonds do not carry any vot-
ing power it was thought by the commit
tee entirely safe to leave the matter as 1t
is under existing law. 1t was especial
ly~ thought desirable not to place in the
power OF the commission authority to.
permit the joint ownership of stock by
different corporations"

HAND AND POWER PRESSES

SAMPLES OF WORK EXHIBITED
Union Chairman Declines Invitation
to Pick Out Good From
the Bad.

Sharp clashes between S. E Beach,
chairman Of the executive committee of
the Plate Printers Union. and Director
j. E. Ralph of the bureau of engraving
and printing enlivened the hearing be-
fore the Senate committee on printing to-
day on the proposal to substitute power
presses for hand presses in the printing
Of Uncle Sans currency.
The most militant of the witnesses that
have appeared in behalf of the Plate
Printers Union in opposition to the SUBJ
stitution of power for hand presses. Mr..
Beach insisted that power press work
was uniformly bad and hand press work
uniformly good: and ii was that opinion
that brought on the verbal clashes. Mr..
Beach was describing the technical proc
esses in printing on hand presses and
on power presses. and illustrating, step
by step, the superiority he claims for the
hand press over the power press.
"When you refer to the inferior work
of the power presses. do you refer to
the Canadian notes here in evidence as
an Illustration of power-press work?' Di-
rector Ralph interrupted to say.
Il never worked for the American Bank
Note Company, which makes them" the
witness replied.
