IRONING HELPS

The following is a va1ua b1e hint for ironing sheets. Instead of sprea ding out the sheet to iron. fold it in half then quarter and lay it on the ironing board as though to iron. Now iron the rest of the clothes on top of the sheet turn it occasionally before taking a new small article to iron so as to reach every part, then fold it and begin on another sheet. In this way the sheets are ironed with very little trouble

New York, Aug.-On not a single

tariff boards Investigations Of the cot
ton schedule was there an actual re-
duction Of the tariff by the Payne
Aldrich law.
The samples were selected with
great care by the combined judgment
Of the boards experts, indorsed by the
leading jobbers Of the United States
as being representative of all classes
Of fabric In use in this country, each
sample being chosen because 1t was
typical Of the most used material Of
its particular weave or class. Ninety
five all cotton and five silk and cotton
samples comprise the 100 that appear
in the tariff boards cotton report.
Forty-seven Of the ninety-fye In the
all cotton class pay 1850 per cent
higher duties under the Payne-Al-
drich than they did under the Dingley
tariff.

OF these forty-seven classe OF ma.

three o. four New England mills com
monty grouped as the "Lippitt.
McColl interests" This is the clique
Of New England manufacturer-politi
clans who we're permitted by Senator
Nelson w. Aldrich to write the cotton
schedule to suit themselves.
OF the nine Lippitt-McCon fabrics
the Payne-Aldrich law lacked up the
average duty from 1857 to 60.33 pei
cent. In other words, the promised
revision downward" on these goods
was really a revision upward amount
ing to 64.97 per cent of the Dingle!
rates.
The remaining t%hirty-eight classes o
all cotton fabrics on which the dut,
was increased we're not generally tn,

thirty-eight fabrics were assessed al
average duty of 1886 per cent Unde

26,07 per cent. Of the former rate a

IBID you ever sit around outside
- your house on a Sunday after
noon, or of an evening, maybe,
and watch the paint, and see it
go, when it ought to be holding
on tight? .
Some paints are so poor that you can almost
see them as they dry out, and crumble, and
powder, and blow away.
Why do they do this? Why does this happen?
Something the matter with the materials-too
much lead, maybe, or poor oil, or not
scientifically ground and mixed-might have
been good materials but not balanced right
for wear.
AT thie store we make it our business to KNOW what
paint will wear-because it pays us to handle the kind
that pays you. And that's why we handle MOUND

FACTS SUPPRESSED AND ISSUES
EVADED BY TAFT TARIFF BOARD
BY ROBERT KENNETH MACLEA,
Formerly Consulting Expert Of the Tariff Board

Under the pressure of promise to fight chicanery and fraud in tariff
legislation, I deem it a public duty not to withhold the facts in my posses
shn relative to the investigation of the cotton manufacturing industry Re-
gretrul that my experience with the board warrants such conclusions, l am
compelled to present the following indictment:
The Lexington intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1901-1949, 1912-08-30

That the tariff board,
in it's report on manu-
features Of cotton

lie and to the government, but inimical
to the special privileges of a few New
England manufacturers who were per
mitted by Senator Aldrich to write the
cotton schedule to suit themselves.
The Lexington intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1901-1949, 1912-08-30

cost data on weaving necessary to enable
1t to make an intelli-
gent comparison with
u,r,,,n1 costs at home; that the
INEkACI board was offered op-
portunities for obtain
" ing such data, but did
not use them; that such
foreign data as were obtained were in
some cases suppressed and in others were
inadequate for honest comparison, al
though so utilized.
VII.
That the tariff board betrayed the con-
fdence Of American manufacturers by
publishing data that
should have been held
for confidential informa-
lNEAIR ton Of legislators; that
competitors were given
thereby valuable trade
secrets, while the for
eign manufacturers divulged nothing Of
similar character OF Importance.
VIII.
That the tariff boards
DlSlNGEN. questions yltaIly aTest,

misleading.
TX.
That the tariff board has proved not to
be the 'nonpartisan" and scientific in
strument promised by President Taft;
that its members displayed ~insxperience
in business, Incompetence and extrava-
gance. I have been forced reluctantly
after q years intimate association to ac-
cept the opinion that the tariff board has
been nothing more than
- an effective cog in a
''standpat" political ma
PARTISAN chines that some of the
men who clamored most
loudly for q tariff board
and some Of the men
appointed thereto worked all the time
complacently in the knowledge that the
creation OF the board was a scheme to
prevent genuine tariff reform as long as
possible by cumming the cards and de-
laying the game" a charge frequently
made, but which I for a long time dis
credited.
That such facts as the tarir board has
reported sustain the charge, as to both
the wool and the cotton
schedules, that the con-
NnMVIeT, sumner has been robbed

duty. On these three samples the re-
ductton averaged $50 per cent on the
former duty-a reduction from 1850
per cent under the Dingley law to
l1O.44 per cent under the Payne-Al
drich law. On one Of the silk and cot
on samples there was an increase
amounting to 21,98 per cent The fifth
Of the silk and cotton samples was left
unchanged
On the ~forty-ive Of the ninety.ive
all cotton samples there was no change
in duty.
On the three remaining samples
completing the total Of 1000 no com
parison is made because Of apparent
lack of authentic foreign prices.
Mr.. Taft Was Mistaken.
And still President Taft said in his
speech at Boston, April rs last:
TT (the Payne-Aldrich bill was a
vastly better bill than the Dingley
bill. If I had refused to sign the
Payne bill It would have maintained
the Dingley bill with higher rates than
the Payne bill"
When Mr.. Taft made this statement
he must have known that It was IN
true. AS for the wool schedule, he
knew that the rates were not higher
in the Dingley law than in the Payne
Aldrich law, for right after signing
the latter bill did he not denounce its
wool rates as "indefensible?" And,
as for the cotton rates Of the Payne
bill, he knew they were Just as in
defensible" as the wool rates, for at
the time he made this statement IN
Boston he had the tariff boards report
on cotton before him.
It is true that the cotton report OF
the tariff board did not make this IN
formation Available at a glance to Mr.
Taft or to congress or to the public
The tariff board carefully avoided Civ.
