1t the committee recommended an
"anti-dumping" clause, declaring in
its report that it was to guard the
producers Of the United States against
the decentralization Of American mar
kets caused by low, priced foreign inn
portations."
The clause provided in substance
that upon exported foreign articles
not on the free. list also manufactured
in the United States, special duty of
not to exceed fifteen per cent should
be levied whenever the foreign price
was less than the fair market value at
home.
The house passed this provision.
The Republicans tried unsuccessful
1y to amend it, and then to man vot-
ed for it. The senate finance COM
mittee struck it from the bill, and in
spite of united Republicans to amend
and restore it, the tariff bill passed
the senate without the anti-dumplng
clause, eventually becoming law in
that form.
The anti-dumping clause thus
thrown into the discard by the Demo-
Gratis was very evidently q necessity,
the demand for which was acutely
emphasized by the passage Of the law
from which it was finally eliminated.
In recommending anti-dumping leg
1slation now, Secretary Redfield has
not merely turned the limelight upon
legislative blunder of his party He
has justified the position of the Re-
publicans and virtually championed

POTATO BREAD
Baking Experiments Being Made BY
Experts.

Baking experiments to test the value
of making bread from potato meal
mixed with wheat flour are now being
undertaken by the U. S. Department
OF Agriculture in the bureau OF Chem
lstry. This is to test the possibili-
ties of the potato in the same manner
as Germany and Austria are now adj
vlslng their people to do. The in
creased cost of living throughout the
world has emphasized the fact that
flour made of other substances than
wheat, or of these substances mixed
with wheat, might provide people with
healthful food quite as nutritious as
the pure wheat flour and at the same
time cheaper
Austrian bakers are now compelled
by law to use at least 30 per cent po-
tato meal in making their bread The
bread of the bureau of chemistry has
been baked with from 25 to SO per
cent potato meal and the remaining
per cent flour.
The most satisfactory loaves in COM
blning economy and appearance were
those made with the minimum percen-
tage required in Austria or less. The
loaves made with more than 80 per
cent potato meal were not satisfactory
being heavier and less attractive in
form. The bread made with potato
meal has a rather coarse texture and
dark appearance, but it pos
sesses distinctive and pleasant flaw
or. 1t also retains moisture for a
much longer period than ordinary
wheat bread.
The Bureau Of Chemistry used the
imported potato flake in some of the
experiments and in others used meal
made by slicing, milling and drying
potatoes on small scale in its own
laboratories. It should be stated that
such ordinary potato flour" as is now
on our American markets is not the
same as German potato flour" or
Waltzmehl, which has given such sat
isfactory results in the experiments
The question has been raised as to
whether the ordinary cooked potato
might not be substituted as satisfac-
torily for the prepared potato meal.
The experimenters believe that it
might serve the same purposes if used
in just the right proportion, but would
be difficult for the average housewife
to determine, as there is great danger
| of using too much, thus producing a
soggy loaf. However, the custom of
adding little potato is already used
by many housewives to keep their
bread moist, and this practice can very

RETAIN FORMER ATTITUDE
Evidence Mt Salmon River Project
Hearing Brings No Change.

Little was introduced before the
state irrigation and drainage commits
sion at its hearing Tuesday on the
Twin Falls-Salmon river irrigation
project which would tend to induce
the commission to recede from its for
mer attitude, as announced exclusive
ly by The Statesman several days ago.
At that time it was stated the COM
mission would recommend that the
project be reduced from seventy-three
thousand to thirty thousand acres.
Following the hearing the commits
sion was engaged Tuesday night in the
preparation of report will contain
recommendations as previously an
nounced. The commissions actions
will not be binding on the state or any
court of law, as 1t has only advisory
powers. The affairs of the Salmon
river project are now in the courts,
however, and 1t is generally believed
the ultimate solution of the projects
difficulties will be in line with the
commissions recommendations
Someone to Lose.
That there must be loss to those
interester is admitted by both the
company and the settlers. The ques-
ton to which the commission desires
a solution is how the loss should be
distributed.
Harold Nj. Sims. OF Hollister, secre-
tary of the settlers association and G.
NJ. Hall, manager of the project, were
1.-THE only witnesses who appeared be-
fore the commission. Mr.. Hall gave
technical testimony as to the run-off
of the stream, the loss of water in
transit and other data regarding the
system.
No Proposition Made.
Mr.. Sims said the bondholders had
made NO proposition to the settlers
He said the settle1s did not want to
accept less than 2 ga acre feet. as
guaranteed them in their contracts,
but he thought settlement could be
reached whereby the loss would be
distributed between the settlers and
the bondholders He said that since
the settlers had at considerable ex-
pense obtained asdecree from the fed
eral court under which they were to
be allowed the water specified them in
those contracts, he did not believe
they would be willing 10 accept less.

THE NORMAL'S RECORD.

"State Normal is Given Clean Bill of Health" is the caption over story in Little Rock newspaper of the re- port of the legislative visiting com mittee to the institution at Conway.
 And it is as gratifying to the peo- pie of the entire state as it is to the people of Conway that the State Nor mai has always been given a clean bill of health. It's record for the sev- en years of it's existence is spotless. Not only has there never been raised the slightest suspicion of dishonesty in it's administration, but there has never been a charge of extravaganza or incompetency.
 By wilfuiiy trampling over the law as some of our state institutions unfortunately have done-the State Normal School might have needed buildings, facilities for teaching force which would have enabled it to enjoy very much larger attendance. But it's board of trustees, president and faculty have contented themselves with what the state saw fit to pro- vide. Prudently, carefully-even parsimoniously-its appropriations have been guarded, so that every bi- ennial period has witnessed, instead of deficit, the turning back into the treasury of an unexpended balance.
 The same policy of frugality and economy has been urged upon the Normal's students, who constitute one of the most democratic bodies of young men and women ever assem- bled in the state.
 The growth of the institution may not have been so rapid as it's more enthusiastic friends have desired. but ]! it is established on a sure foundation, one that is certain to endure. The administration of the State Normal School has been of character that is all too infrequently found among state institutions.
