WHY THE POWDER R0SR is ON


o'" countries Must Be Supplied
COL I. q. Buckner, vice president {
the DUPONT Powder Company in an inter
view a few days ago said;
THE United States is now doing til
greatest powder business in the world
Just at present the duPonts are unusual
ly busy. The European war has give
the powder business to the United Statel
OF all the countries in the world only
lew make powder. Germany and En-
land supplied most OF the powder used b
the countries OF South America and It'll
other countries of Europe. In all Sout
America there is but one powder plan
and it could not begin to supply the de
mand.
"When the wal broke out the plant
in England and Germany could no long
er supply the needs of their customers
They are busy making powder for them
selves. They could not send any away
France makes its own powder but is hes
never exported any considerable quaint.
ty. n
1.-The nations which have been depend
ing OH England and Germany for thei
supplies OF powder are now in need o.
powder, and we are the only ones whid
can furnish it. AS a consequence we a,
unusually busy. We are guarding tbs
plants. We always do. Should I wal i
to visit a powder plant / would be con
PEELED to get a permit from tile man whot
business it is to issue permits. If a gov
eminent officer comes hear Oil oficia,
business, he must get a permit. Any OF =
who goes in must get "a permit and H.
must give up the matches in lis pocks
before he goes in where we are making
powder. We are doing nothing excer
what we are always doing"
Asked concerning the report that the
dupont Company had a new process ii
manufacturing ~smokeless powder, Colon
Buckner laughed and replied:
1--WE are always making improvement 3
in the manufacture Of powder. We kee
about 800 Of the best chemists in {
country constantly at work trying to make
improvements and if they did not make
them we would not keep them.
I'VE are not guarding against spies,"
added the colonel, ''but we are guarding
against any one going in the plants who
have no business there. We are too busy
just now to take any chances. 1t is a
matter Of safety to ourselves and to those
who might be SO inclined to go in"
Col. Buckner gives an intimation Of
spies looking at the dupont Powder
Plant. During the past summer there
were two large steamboats, anchored in
the middle OF the river between Penns
Grove and Carneys Point. In converse
last July the editor of the Penns Grove
RECORD learned that he was a citizen of
Germany. While having been born in
this country he returned to Germany
with his mother, 0 o after the death of
his father, was educated In Germany and
served in the German Army.
In the latter part of August after the
European war began we met the man and
asked him when he intended to return to
fight. He replied that he had 0 been
called on.
Why a citizen OF Germany should want
to be on the highest and nearest point
possible to DUPONT Powder works for the
small pay of a boat Waterman is only
conjectured.

REBELS STATE POSITIVELY DE LA BARRA WILL NOT MEET

Accuse Him of Double Dealing with Madero-Other Names Have Been Suggested by United States.

Washington. Jan. 26.-"Francisco 1 de La Barra, as Huerta's successor would not be acceptable to Gen. Car ranza or other rebel leaders ' sald Roberto V. Pesqueira. confidential agent in Washington of the constitu- tionalists tonight.
 "lIadero failed" said Pesqueira, "because he generously accepted the Vretended support of the reaction aries whose first manifestation was the unsuccessful and ruinous govern ment ad interim of De La Barra who never ceased secretly to conspire against the Madero government and who finally overthrow it through the blackest treachery known in modern times With this element there can be no compromise; the people will not have it. Should a compromise be forced, the struggle nevertheless would continue because public opinion in Mexico as in the United States de mands government by the governed. Compromise with Huerta or a sue cessor of his selection would be repudiated.
 We have no fear of intervention on the part of the United States be- cause aside from the faith we have in the policy of President Wilson. we know that the thinking men of this country - the great minds-realize that Mexico is in the making and is passing through a period Of evolution preliminary to the establishment of stable and democratic form of gov ernment"
