PANAMA TOLLS ARE
UNDER DISCUSSION

Washington, Feb. 25.-American
diplomats who negotiated the Hay
Fauncefote treaty had no thought of
eXempting the United States when
they agreed to the provision stipula-
ting that "alI nations" should use he
Panama canal on equal terms, ac-
cording to Henry White, former am
bassador to Great Britain. Mr.. White
was secretary of embassy at London
in 1898, and in the absence of Am
bassador Hay opened the negotiations
for repeal of the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty, which the Hay-Pauncefote
pact supplanted. In an address on
diplomacy before the George Wash
ington university he declared that
there could be no doubt that the words
"all nations" was intended to include
the United States.
"Nobody," said the former ambas-
sador, ''not in touch with diplomatic
affairs could realize what a deplorable
thing it was to know this country was
going back on it's word. There never
could be any doubt that the words all
nations included the United States
No one views with deeper humiliation
the fact that we have no merchant
marine. / would, therefore, do any,
thing that could be done, with pro-
priety, for the resuscitation of our
merchant marine, but | do not be-
lieve in violating our pledged word"
Mr.. White praised President Wilson
for his stand in insisting upon the
repeal of the section of the Panama
canal act giving free tolls to American
vessels.
Definite action to bring the repeal
question squarely before congress is
expected within the next two weeks.
In the meantime supporters of the ad-
ministratio both in the senate and
house, are working to prevail upon the
legislators who have not made up their
minds as to the course they will pur-
sue to support the president in the re-
peal of the toll exemption provision.
Senators O'Gorman and Chamber
lain purpose to fight against repeal
until the last, but many Democratic
senators are assuring the president
that they will vote to reverse the ac-
ton of congress.
Representative Adamson, chairman
of the house interstate and foreign
commerce commission, plans to have
a repeal bill reported from his COM
mittee.

Sinful Woman.

What's the first thing people say
When a man goes wrong?
There is one conclusion they
Who make up the throng
Always straightway come to when
Any man goes tumbling down.
When he robs his fellow men,
When the ones who praised him
frown-
When his honor and his pride
End in bitterness and shame,
Do we not at once decide
That some woman was to blame?
When a Christian falls from grace
All the world declares
There's a woman in the case
Who has spread her snares;
When a banker fees we know,
Though her name may not be
heard,
That some woman brought him low,
And we pass along the word.
For the wrongs men do, the shame
That they have to bear who fall
Woman always gets the blame,
Woman is behind it all.
But when some man rises high,
When he wins applause,
When for him the banners fly,
Do we guess the cause?
Do we tell each other then
That some woman made him great,
That for her he rose DER men,
Toiling early, striving late?
Yet, without her who would win,
Who would care to do his best?
Why blame woman for the sin
And withhold from her the rest?

The Shawl Industry of Kashmir

Kashmir, India, has been famous for
it's shawls from the remotest antiquity,
says the Consular Report, and until
about 40 years ago the shawl trade
gave employment to more than 10000
people whose products brought into
the country over $1,OOO,OO0 per year.
During the last few years, however,
this industry has seriously declined,
owing to change of fashions. France
was formerly the best market for
Kashmir shawls, and the setback to
the Kashmir shawl industry dated
from the calamities that visited France
during the Franco -Prussian war. Many
of the best shawl weavers have left
Kashmir and settled elsewhere, while
others have taken to carpet making or
embroidery. The shawls now made in
Kashmir are inferior in quality.
The wool of which Kashmir shawls
are made, known locally as "pashm,' y
is really a fine kind of hair obtained
from the down or under fleece of a
handsome species of goat that thrive5
on the hills and in the valleys of Kash-
mir and Tibet. The shawl designs are
various, but French patterns and new
colors, such as magenta, are begin
ming to prevail over genuine Indian
designs and colors, and the goods are
rather cheap and snowy instead of be-
ing real works of art as heretofore.
The process of shawl manufacture IS
briefly as follows: The pashm
is cleaned and treated with rice paste,
spun into yarn by spinning wheels and
then dyed, lac being used as NOR
dant. In fourishing days of the in
dustry, about Ga different tints could
be given The yarn is then adjusted for
the warp and for the weft, the former
being double and the latter single. The
warp is then fixed in the loom, the col
ored yarn being wound around small
sticks which may be about 1900 in
number in richly embroidered shawls.
The weaver himself has no idea what
he is to produce, but he manipulates
the sticks according to the dictation of
pattern maker.

REDFIELD TELLS OF
GREAT IMPROVEMENT

Wheeling, w. Va, Feb. 25.-
Marked improvement in conditions in
the industrial and commercial regions
of the country has come, reviving
courage and destroying alarm; re-
moval of tariff duties has resulted in
a tendency clearly and openly in the
direction of reduction in the cost Of
food and clothing, and climatic condi-
tions, not business depression, are re-
sponsible for the number of unem-
ployed in New York City and other
large industrial centers.
This was the message delivered to-
night to the nation by William C. Red
field, the administrations spokesman
on commercial and industrial prob
lens, before the Wheeling board Of
trade. Every statement the speaker
made was fortified by official statis-
tics and reports. Mr.. Redfeld defend
ed the tariff act, lauded the currency
law and with decided emphasis as
sured his audience that the govern
ment intends to help and not hinder
legitimate business.
at was not strange that the serious
depression all over Europe as we'll as
in South America should have been
slightly reflected upon us in the latter
part of last year." he said.
at is not surprising that careful
men moved cautiously in business mat
ters pending the necessary readjust
ments from the new tariff or that
they should have hesitated until the
final form of the currency bill was
known. 1t is not strange. either, that
the men should want to know the at
titude of the government toward legit-
innate business.
"But there is no ground here now
for worry. The surplus of freight
cars has ceased to grow. 1t com
menced about the middle of January
to decline and has decreased by about
5000 cars.
"The tendency is clearly and openly
in the direction of reduction of the
cost of food and clothing through the
removal of the tariff tax.
"The new tariff has not thus far re-
suited in any material increase Of i'm
portation of manufactured articles to
compete with the products of our own
factories, but rather its important eff
feet is yet to come.
"The re-opening of the idle mills
throughout the central west has inn
proved conditions. 1t is certainly true
that many of those who We're out of
work when the year opened are now
busy again and the tendency is to EN-
ploy more"
