Dog at Mount Carmel, Pa, Will Be
Given Heavy Brass-Studded Col
lar by Postmaster General.

The faithful work of SAM" a stray
dog. which has assumed the task OF
guarding bags of mail at Mount Car
mel. Pa. has been recognized officially
by the Post Office Department Within
the next day or SO the dog will have
locked upon his neck a heavily brass
studded collar bearing a plate engraved
with the words, II. s. Mail Presented
to Uncle Sans Faithful Friend by Al
bert S. Burleson. Postmaster General.
October Is, 1916
Sans special self-assigned task is the
guarding of a parcel post wagon, while
the carrier is delivering. He never
misses trip. An admirer wrote to the
department suggesting that as Sam is
nobody's dog. recognition such as might
insure him consideration should be ac-
corded.
Postmaster General Rurleson, finding
time in the midst of a great political
campaign to recognize the dumb servi-
tors faithful work, wrote to his friend.
commencing her most heartily for her
interest in the dogs behalf: voicing his
appreciation of the quiet. patient and
accomplishing devotion shown by the
animal. and informing her that he
would send the collar for her to lock
upon SANS" neck. The key will then
be thrown away.

Question Arises as to Whether
Treasury Shall Not Apply Extra
Tariff al Penalty.


The discovery by the State Depart
ment OF blank form, issued by the
Canadian government, to: govern the
sale by Canadian agents to American
concerns OF mica, which not only re-
stricts the sale of the mica involved In
the transaction to Germany but also
requires the American purchaser not
to sell to Germany any other mica in
his possession, has been laid before the
Treasury Department = =; - &. -
The question arises whether the Treas
ury Department. under the circum-
stances, is not required to apply the
provisions of section 802 of sthe tariff
law. imposing a special tariff Of double
the regular rate. The provision reads:
THAT II any article produced In a for
eign country Is imported into the
United States under any agreement
understanding or condition. that the
importer thereof or any other person
in the United States shall not use. .pur-
chase or deal in. or shall be restricted
in his using, purchasing or dealing in
the articles of any other person, there
shall be levied, collected and paid
thereon, in addition to the duty other
wise imposed by law, a special duty
equal to double the amount Of such
duty"
