COMPANY
NOT SHORT OF DYE
Officials Say Present Short
age Will Not Effect
Local Plant
OTHER CITIES
FEEL SHORTAGE

It is said that unless the Federal
investigation by the Department Of
Commerce. now at work in New York.
finds some way of relieving the
scarcity OF dye-stuffs, due to the war
and the Vaccinations of spectators,
many mill workers will be thrown
out OF employment.
Such will not be the case in VIII
mington. however. An official of the
Joseph Bancroft and Sons Co, this
morning when asked as 10 the effect Of
the holding back of German dye stuffs
upon their plant said that while the
situation was annoying that things
we're not as bad as they have been
pictured by some When asked If the
situation unless changed within a
month would cause a lay-of of em-
ployes at their plant the official said
that II would not.
Throughout the country. particularly
in the manufacturing districts of the
Middle Atlantic and New England
States. the number OF workmen affected
will exceed several hundreds of thou
sands, according to officials of the
PHILADELPHIA Masters Dyers' Association.
The blockade declared by England and
Germany have completely cut of the
supply of German dyes, upon which
American manufacturers have for years
depended. The last importation reached
this country in March A large guam
tity Of these, according to authorities,
were bought up by market spectators
who diluted them and then tried to foist
them on the helpless manufacturers Ion
ridiculously high prices. One variety
of black, for instance, that had always
sold for about thirty cents a pound, has
recently been offered for &c.
Manufacturers have sent many
complaints 10 the Department Of
Commerce. The reply was that so
far as resumng importations was
concerned nothing could be done at
this time, but that an investigation of
the practices of spectators could he
started. AS result. Thomas n. Nor
ton. a special investigator for the bu-
reau OF foreign and domestic COM
merce. has set up headquarters IN the
New York Customs House and, with
the assistance of a number Of clerks
and deputies, win begin work imme-
diately.
A number Of dye and textile manu-
facturers met IN the Manufacturers
Club early in the spring and pre-
dlcted that several industries would
be crippled by autumn unless the De-
partment Of Commerce either found
some way Of resuming importations
or a substitute for the German pro-
ducts. D. f. Waters. president Of the
Master Dyers' Association, declared
today that those predictions are being
fulfilled almost 10 the day.
"All dye manufacturers IN this part
Of the country are fast running out oil
materials" Mr. Waters said "Soon
people will have TO wear more white
things. In Philadelphia about 1000
men are employed in dye factories
But the dye factories are not the only
factories that will be affected. All
Those industries, such as hosiery, un.
derwear. rug and carpet making. viii

\ manufacturers will attend the SEES
