INTO GARMENT MAKING
Mr.. Berger Declares Low
Wages Menace to Health
and Welfare of All.

Investigation Of conditions in the gar
Woodworking industry in New York was
proposed in a resolution today by Repre-
sentative Berger. the socialist member
from Wisconsin. The resolution would
authorize the appointment of special
committee of seven members to inquire
into the conditions surrounding the gar
matchmaking trade and trer recent strike.
In the preamble of his resolution Mr..
Berger sets forth that the New York
clothing industry supplies the trade OF a
large section of the country through in
terstate trade; that the wages in the In
dustry are SO low that healthy surround
ings and decent standard of living have
become almost impossible"
Vice and Crime Bred.
'It is further charged" continues the
preamble, that vice and crime are bred
Of the needless misery coincident to the
manufacture of the nations clothing. and
further that said manufacture is carried
on in filthy and insanitary places satu-
rated with germs Of consumption. SMALL

gious diseases"
Mr. Berger's resolution sets forth that
clothing made in such conditions is a
serious menace and danger to the well
fare and health OF all"
In a statement accompanying his reso-
luton Mr.. Berger said that he desired to
show .the close connection which the in
tolerable economic condition of the gar
ment workers bears to crime and vice on
the one hand, and how these economic
conditions revenge themselves upon All
the people because the people allow them
to exist.

HE|KE MUST ENTERCELL,
SUPREME COURT HOLDS
Tribunal Also Places Restrict
ed Limits Upon the ''Im-
.munity Bath"

BY giving restricted limits to the ''im-
munity BATH" somewhat in vogue since
the days of antitrust and rebate prose-
cutions. the Supreme Court of the United
States today held that Charles r. Heike.
former secretary of the American Sugar
Refining Company, had not been given
immunity by the government and must
serve his eight months Imprisonment and
pay his five-thousand- dollar fine for al
legged conspiracy to defraud the govern
ment of sugar customs.
Testimony Not Relevant.
Justice Holmes. in handing down the
courts decision, said that it seemed the
immunity act was coterminous with the
constitutional provision against a man
being compelled to testify against him
self. He said. however. it was not nee
essary to define exactly the limits of
immunity because the testimony Heike
gave did not concern" the crime for
which he was convicted, nor was It rele-
want thereto.
Heike testified at a grand jury investi-
cation, under the Sherman antitrust law,
into the affairs of the American Sugar
ecuted in connection with the sugar.
weighing frauds at the customs docks in
Brooklyn.
Heike claimed he was immune against
this prosecution by virtue of an appro-
priation act of 1909, which provides that
those who furnished evidence In anti
trust or interstate commerce investiga-
tions should be granted Immunity. The
government in reply cOntended that this
act granted immunity only against pros
ecutions under the antitrust law and the
interstate commerce laws and not for
prosecutions for conspiracy to defraud the
government.
Another Contention.
The government also contended that
to procure immunity the testimony given
at the investigation must be of an in
eliminating character.
The conviction of Heike was the out
come of series of proceedings growing
out of the sugar weighing frauds. The
government established that holes had
been bored into the government scales
on which the American Sugar Refining
Company's sugar was weighed at the
Havemyer & Elder dock In Brooklyn
so that a wire could be pressed against
the beam and the weight Of the sugar
cargoes reduced. The company was re-
quired to pay the government over
$1,000. 600 in customs out of which it had
been defrauded.
The government claimed that Heike. as
secretary and treasurer, could not have
possibly been ignorant OF the frauds be-
cause he not only had before him the
government weights, but the weights OF
"city' weiGhers on the same docks by
whose weighing the sellers of the sugar
imported insisted their goods must be
sold.

Democratic and Compromise Bills.
REMOVAL OF DUTIES IS URGED
Editor of Trade Journal Among
Witnesses Heard by House
Ways and Means Committee.

Democratic plans for downward revi-
sion of the wool schedule of the tariff,
one Of the most complicated features to
come before the extra session of Con-
gress, were under fire today before the
House committee on ways and means.
General expectation among House
democrats is that the committee will re-
port at the outset of the extra session
virtually the same wOOlen schedule as
was Incorporated in the wool bill that
passed the House at the first and second
sessions of this Congress. was amended
in the Senate last summer, compromised
in conference and vetoed by. President
Taft. The average ad valorem duty of
the schedule in the present law is. almost
GO per cent. The democratic bill that
serves as the tentative basis of the pres
ent consideration provides very much
lower duties. 1t would tax raw wool
% per cent ad valorem. instead of the
higher varying rates on three classifica-
tions in the present law.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-01-27
Questions Ability of Committee.

Mr.. Wood refused to make any specific
recommendation as to raw wool, though
proposing the maintenance of the pres
ent tariff protection on woOlen goods. He
pictured big problems confronting the
democrats in attempting to carry out
tariff reduction plan, and questioned
the ability of the committee to SO classi-
fy the different commodities as to apply
rate that would exactly At each kind
Of wool.

Duties It Would Provide.

1t would put an ad valorem duty on 20
per cent also on wool wastes and rags,
2j per cent on cOmbed wool or tops, 30
per cent on yarns. as well as blankets
and the cheaper flannels for underwear:
rates ranging from 3J to 30 per cent on
cloths. ready-made clothing. knit fabrics,
f1annels not for underwear. wOmen's dress
goods. weddings, gOrings and articles
not otherwise provided for.
AS compromised in conference between
the two houses last August, the duty on
raw wool was shifted from the proposed
20 to % per cent ad valOrem. which Presi-
dent Taft in his second veto declared was
insufficient to meet the difference in the
cost of production Of the low-priced woods
here and abroad in the case of FOUR
f1fths of the total wool clip of this coun-
try.
His contention was that the minimum
ad valorem should be 35 per cent and
that the proposed lower rates would
throw thousands of Workmen out of en-
ployment. The democrats, still contend
ing that the proposed rates approach the
best revenue-producing points and would
encourage production and consumption.
OverrOde the Presidents veto in the
House, but failed of the necessary two-
thirds in the Senate.
The witnesses today represented the ma
tional associations of wool manufacturers,
growers. importers. clothiers and inde-
pendent manufacturers.

Removal Of Duties Urged.

John p. Wood of Philadelphia, presi-
dent OF the National Association of Wool
Manufacturers. told the committee he
had accepted in good faith the assurance
that the contemplated tariff revision
would injure no legitimate business. He
said that while rates on some articles ex-
ceed protection requirements. the tariff
board had showed the manufacturers
realized no advantage from it, as domes-
tic competition regulated prices within
narrow limits of profit. The association
stood generally for the present tariff
