AT POISON BULLET AID
Red6eld Got Presidents
Consent Before Rebuking Machine
COMPANY for 'Atrocious' Publicity.

Secretary of Commerce Redfeld yester-
day sent a Letter to the Cleveland Auto
matte Machine Company bitterly rebuk-
ing It for printing In connection with its
advertisement of projectile-ulaking ma
chinery a description OF the destruction
wrought by the machines product. He
also addressed a letter to the Hill Pub
fishing Company. publishers Of the Amer
lean Machinist, rebuking 1t for accepting
for publication such an advertisement.
At Secretary Redfield's ONCE 1t was
stated that the letters had been sent to
Cornish. N. H, last week and returned
to Washington with President Wilson's
approval stamped upon them.
In a letter to the machine company
Secretary Redfeld refers to the adver-
tisement as "atrocious" He says:
1T is. / confess. difficult for me to I'M
derstand how any one who was not CAL
lous in q high degree could have drafted
such a statement for publication with a
view to selling his own wares. much less
how such q one could have insisted upon
its publication after he knew that OBJ
lection was made thereto. You urge the
cruel and agonizing nature Of the death
caused by certain missiles as an evil
dence of their effectiveness, and suggest
this as the basis of sale for the ma
chine which makes these hideous things.
At q time when every instinct Of pa
triotism calls for calm and self-restraint.
