OATMEAL FACTORIES
SAVED FROM RUIN
c. M. Rich Says Action of Senate in
Changing Underwood Bill Pre-
vents Plants Closing.

Expressing a feeling of entire satisfac-
ZION with the Senate programme as il
now stands with relation to tariff legis-
iation. e. NJ Rich, of Keokuk, Iowa,
who is in Washington for a visit of a
few days, yesterday declared that the
decision of the Senate Finance Com
mittee TO adopt countervaiIing provisions
in the agricultural schedule. literally will
save from destruction d number of thriv-
ing American industries.
Mr.. Rich, who is president of a cereal
company, with plants in keokuk and
Davenport, said that he is only one OF a
large group of independent miIlers of
oatmeal who saw ruin apparently close
at hand when the original draft of the
Administrators new tariff measure was
published.
IF the Underwood bill should have
prevailed without amendment" he said.
last night, there would have been moth
ing FOR US to do except retire from bust
ness in the United States. A few Of our
stronger members might have closed up
in this country. moved to Canada and
there built new plants and resumed oper-
atoms. but a majority of the fifteen in
dependent mills in the United States
would have gone TO the wall
If the Underwood bill should have
prevailed as drawn, with a duty OF 10

manufactured product (oatmeaD on the
free list, the Canadian manufacturers
would have continued to have access to
the cheaper raw material; could have
continued to ship their oatmeal duty-free
into the United States, and We would
have been forced out of business. Ten
bushels of oats are required for the pro-
auction of one barrel of oatmeal, and II
\ is easy to see that the independent mill
ers could not long have continued to
meet the ruinous competition from the
other side of the line. because the duty
OF 10 cents a bushel on oats Igrain)
would have meant an advantage of one
dollar a barrel in favor of the manu-
facturers with plants in Canada.

Senate Finanre Committee. with its pro-
vision that meats. meat animals grains.
and flour shall be admitted free only
when the country of their origin gives
free entry TO similar American products.
will have the saving grace of leaving all
of us on an equal footing. and Congress
will not be in the position of having
forced our industry out of the country
and into a country where it would lose

Representative William Borland of
Missouri delivered an address. in which
he spoke of three classes of criminals
the habitual criminal, the occasional
criminal. and the defective criminal.

in this country with which the police
were having much trouble.

SIDELIGHTS ON
POLICE CHIEFS

OF the several hundred police chiefs
here for the convention one of the most
interesting characters is Chief Henry
Curran. of Nashville, Tenn.
In addition to having one of the best
regulated departments in the country.
Chief Curran attained fame June 4, 1905.
at Detroit, Mich, when the police con-
ventiOn met there. by throwing a colored
man out of a restaurant when he at
tempted to cat ut the same table. A
warrant for Curran's arrest was sworn
out. but before it could be served the
chief grabbed train and beat il for
Tennessee. In the meantime hundreds
of Southern men and women contributed
to a fund amounting to almost $4,000
to defend Curran IN the courts should
he be brought back for trial.
Another thing has made Chief Curran
famous among his brother chiefs; his
ability to tell where a negro is from
by the color. hnkiness, and length Of
the hair, and shape of the head Yes
terday at the Raleigh Hotel the news
of the chiefs power leaked out among
the colored walters. One for curiosity
asked the veteran: Mister can you tell
where Use from?'' Take off your hat,
Niger" commanded Chief Curran The
waiter did so. ''Why I would say that
you were from Pensacola, Fla" said
the chief And the chief was right
Great Gawd, mister. how does you do
that?" the waiter inquired. The chief
figured ont this way: Negroes from
Pensacola and that particular section of
Florida have peculiar redish hair.
1t was learned yesterday that had this
convention been held in New York that
Commissioner Waldo would have been
a candidate for head of the International
Association of Chiefs of Police. but as
the gathering was decided for Washing
ton the commissioner. out of courtesy
to Maj. Richard Sylvester, who has
headed the association for many years,
would not have his name considered.
A canvas of the chiefs here brought
out the information that Maj. Sylvester
will be reelected by a handsome ma
jority.
Among the interesting chiefs at the
convention is George Black. head of the
Police Department of Wilmington, Del.
At the annual convention at Toronto.
Canada, last year. he presented an in
teresting paper on THE Whipping
Post" which caused a great deal of
favorable comment. Yesterday he spoke
at some length with respect to vice
conditions in Wilmington, favoring segre-
cation. and declaring that his city had
the best regulated houses of i'll repute
Of any municipality.
One of the most convival chiefs to be
found in the lobby of the Raleigh is
William H. Rodenbaugh. head of the
police force of Norristown. Pa He has
been chief for thirty years, and has
many Interesting tales concerning police
affairs in the Pennsylvania city. Chief
Rodenbaugh will either present a paper

ton during the latter part of the week.
