textile INDUSTRY FACES
A SERIOUS DYE Shortage
American Manufacturer Claims 27O
Mills Will Be Forced to Close un-
less Dyes Are Obtained.

Westinghouse gloomy view of the
immediate future Of the American tex
tile industry was presented at the
White House and the state depart
ment Wednesday by committee rep
resenting 400 mills, and headed by for
mer Representative Metz of New
York. Unless some relaxation OF the
recent British blockade order in coun-
Gil is obtained and German dyestuffs
reach them within six weeks time,
Mr.. Metz declared, 27O mills will be
forced to close and 100000 operatives
be thrown out of work.
The situation is complicated in the
extreme. and while negotiations are In
progress with the British government,
apparently there is little prospect OF
framing an agreement that will be
satisfactory to both Great Britain and
Germany.
Under q previous agreement with
Germany, ships carrying American
cotton to German ports were permit
ted to bring back dyestuff cargoes
The new British order, however, has
struck at this traffic in both direc
tons.
When the textile representatives
called at the German embassy after
their conferences with government of
ficials, the ambassador, Count vor
Bernstorff, suggested that there would
be no further trouble about dyestuffi
shipments If the United States woult
threaten an embargo on exports o
war supplies to Great Britain unless
interference with trade between Amer
lea and Germany in foodstuffs, cottol
and noncontraband goods ceased.
The ambassador reiterated the re
cent declaration of the Berlin foreigl
office of Germany's willingness to dis
continue the sinking without motto
by submarines of British merchant
men if Great Britain would stop me
testing noncontraband cargoes coz
signed to German civilians.

WAREHOUSE CORPORATION
BILL VETOED BY GOVERNOR
State Has Already Assumed Control
and Supervision, He Says, in Civ
Ing Reason for Rejection.

Austin, Tex.-House bill 575, provid-
ing that warehouse corporations shall
be subject to the general incorpora-
ton laws of the state, but not the
statute relating to and governing
warehouses especially, was vetoed
Tuesday by Governor Ferguson.
"The state already having assumed
control and supervision of ware
houses" said the governor in giving
his reasons for the veto, II do not
think any concern doing this charac-
ter of business should be exempted
from the general law covering the
same subject. Equal rights to all
and special privileges to none seems
to be very pertinent to the considera-
ton of this law. The bill is therefore
disapproved,"
The governor approved senate bill
274, authorizing mutual assessment &C
cident insurance companies to place
admission fees of not exceeding SO
each in the expense fund, and provid.
ing that such admission fee may also
apply as a credit on the initial pre-.
MUM. The bill also authorizes cor.
corporations organized under this law
to engage in the business on the as
sessment plan of insuring against dis
ability resulting from sickness or dis
ease and to pay a. funeral benefit Of
not exceeding $10O on account Of
death of member resulting from
sickness or disease. The bill is now
in effect.

SAYS
is AN INHERITANCE
AS Unalterable as Stature,
Says a Famous
Scientist.

BOSTON. Aug. 21.-The August
number of the Proceedings of the
National Academy of Science con-
tains an article on the Inheritance Of
Temperament, by DR.. c. b. DavcH-
port, Of the station for experimental
evolution, Carnegie institution, Wash
ington. in which are disclosed the re-
suits of statistical study into the
cases of 90 carefully described family
histories.
Temperament is hereditary and as
little alterable as stature, says Doctor
Davenport, and in seeking to explain
the great diversity in temperaments
he makes the hypothesis hat there
are involved i'm the inheritance OF
temperament two factors; one which
induces more or less periodic eXCita-
bility and whose absence results in
calmness, another which makes for
normal checrfulness and whose ab-
sence permits more or less periodic
depression, these factors being in
herited Independently and occurring in
any combination. Persons may he
divided into calm, nervous or chol-
eric. according to their degree Of eX-
citability, and into cheerful, phleg-
matte, and melancholic, according to
their degree OF cheerfulness or its
opposite, and there were then nine
classes of temperament formed by
combining these two classes, namely,
choleric-cheerful. choleric- phlegmatic,
holeric-melancholic, nervous-cheer-
full, nervous-phlegmatic, and so on.
The statistical study Of the eighty
nine carefully described family his
tories seems to bear out Doctor Dav-
exports hypothesis, because the diff
ferent classes OF temperament ac-
tually occur with about the relative
~frequence which would be expected
from the hypothesis and the usual
laws of inheritance.
