Palmer, a democrat. of Pennsylvania
that we ought to legislate on what you
fear or on the basis of the contrary his
tory of the last eleven or twelve years."
y on might put weapon in their hands
to enable them to make price to keep
out foreign producers, with whom we
might go down.
Mr.. Palmer responded by asking if the
witness thought there was any danger in
the present state of public mind of the
corporation driving the independents out
of business. The witness said that
tariff reduction in favor of foreign COM
petitOrs might give the corporation IAN
excuse" to drive out competition, and that
he wanted the tariff to keep that ex-
cuse away from the corporation.
He testified to his belief that the steel
today greater than Great Britain and
Germany combined, and that with all
that it represented o. per cent of the
steel-prOducing capacity of this country.
1t could defend it's position absolutely
even if the tariff was wiped out: that it
felt absolutely secure and can take care
of itself from legislation. no matter what
may arise.
He said there was a shortage of steel
today and that the corporation was lat
the helm What he was afraid of, he
said. was that the steel corporation would
go out after the California market.

The Retail Merchants Association is
protesting against letting contracts for
goods and material used for the inaugu-
ration to merchants and firms outside of
Washington. President Joseph Stras-
burger of the associat ton declared last
night that the local merchants and man.
ufacturers could supply all the goods re-
quired, and pointed out that Washington
business men contributed a large per-
centage of the inaugural fund.
Mr.. Strasburger spoke particularly of
the contract for medals. which, he said,
he had heard was to be let to a Phila-
delphia firm by the committee on medals
and badges. without giving Washington
merchants an opportunity to bid. The
contract for the medals was let to the
Philadelphia firm four years ago, when
Taft and Sherman We're inaugurated.

mittee could not be located last night to
give his opinion of the matter.

Everyone who is troubled with sore,
Sweaty, or tender feet-swollen feet
smelly feet, corns, calluses or bunions
can quickly make their feet well now.
TIZ makes sore feet well and swollen
feet are quickly reduced to their nat
ural size. Thousands of ladies' have
been able to wear shoes full size
smaller with perfect comfort. R. H..
Cheney, Grundy Center, Iowa. says:
Il put on new pair of shoes the first
of the week and have worn them every
day since. l could never do this be-
fore using TIZ, and they are a half
size smaller than l have been wear
ing"
TIZ is the only foot remedy ever
made which acts on the principle of
drawing all the poisonous exudations
which cause sore feet. Powders and
other remedies merely clog up the
pores. TIz cleanses them out and
keeps them clean. 1t works right off.
You will feel better the very first time
it's used. Use it week and you can
forget you ever had sore feet. Even
If you should let yourself be fooled in
to taking a substitute for TIZ, you
can't fool your feet. TIz is for sale at
all drug stores, department and gen.
eral stores, rs cents per box, or direct
if you wish. Money back if TIZ
doesn't do all we say. For free trial

Webb Bill Is Drastic.

Sacramento, Cal, May IAN oper
rlght-of-way for final action in the sen
ate today on the Webb anti-alien land
act was prepared Wednesday by floor
leaders in the upper house and before
tonight a concrete expression of the
legislatures attitude toward Secretary
of State Bryan's diplomatic visit will
be at hand in the shape of a vote on
the most drastic land holding act yet
proposed.
Secretary Bryan spent the day In
San Francisco, not returning until late
last night, 1t was not known whether
he had received further instructions
from President Wilson regarding his
propositions to the legislature.
Further Delay Not Wanted.
In his absence the original plan to
permit no further delay was carried
out and when the senate adjourned
last night the Webb bill, which stands
on the file as the accepted substitute
of the original -Birdsall
measure, was due to be reached with
in few minutes after the upper
house convened this morning.
A few amendments may be offered,
but they will be resisted with the
full force Of the administration lead
ers, who stated that they expected the
act to be passed in its present form.
Discussion Takes Wide Range.
There was wide discussion Of the
new bill although but little criticism
was forthcoming from the standpoint
Of California.
In comparison with various drafts
that preceded 1t, the Webb act Is said
to be more drastic and effective in
reaching the Japanese farmers of the
state than any other proposed meas
ure and at the same time least objec-
tionable of all from an international
point of view.
Senator Thompson declared last |
night that the bill provided for "the
Immediate and direct solution of the
Japanese problem" and to this ex-
,ent 1t is the most rigid and uncompro-
missing measure that has been sug-
yested.
