TO FOREIGN PLUMAGE
Audubon Society Seeks to Prevent
Importations of Feathers for
Millinery Purposes.


Henry Oldys of Silver Spring, Md,
chairman of the tariff amendment COM
mttee of the Audubon Society of the
District of Columbia, and other officials
Of the society are heading a movement
to close American ports to the plumage
of foreign birds, so largely used in mil
linery, of which the United States is the
largest purchaser.
Schedule n of the Payne Aidrich tariff
act provides a duty OF GO per cent on
dressed plumage, and 20 per cent on UNI
dressed plumage. Mr.. Oldys is sending
out literature giving reasons why there
should be provision inserted in the tariff
acts about to be passed at the special ses-
sion of Congress prohibiting the importa-
ton of the plumage of any wild bird.
Societies Unite in Movement.
Judge Job Barnard is the president Of
the Washington society, and Miss Helen
p. Childs OF Chevy Chase, Nd. is the Sec
rotary. All the other Audubon societies
of the United States are joining in the
effort to obtain the prohibition. The pro-
posed measure has the support of the
Department of Agriculture, the Camp Fire
Club, the American Ornithologists' Union.
the American Society for the Protection
and Propagation of Game. the Agassiz
Association and many famous leaders in
the bird-protection movement.

scene of the fire by direction of Chief
Wagner. There was no water supply
in Maryland upon which the firemen
