ARMoR PLATE COMPETITION

When the Tillman bill to estab-
lish a government armor plate
plant passed the senate it was said
that the object was merely TO in
trOduce competition, and not to
destroy or harm established in
dustry The belief, Of course,
prevails that the private manu-
facturers have through many
years overchargedthe government
When the senate committee had
The Tillman bill under considera-
ton the Bethlehem Steel COM
pany announced a willingness IT,
reduce the price of armor, should
the proposed plan be rejected, but
the bill went through. The com
pany has repeated the offer to the
house, which now has the bill be-
fore it.
The Bethlehem steel company
offers as follows: I'VE will man
ufacture one-third or such ad-
ditiOnal quantity as may be
awarded to us of the armor plate
required for the contemplated five
year naval program, estimated at
approximately 10000 tons, at
price of 1895 ton for side armor
as compared with the price or
1925 now obtaining" The COM
pany does not make its bid wholly
out of patriotism, for if patriot
ism had governed the officials
they would long ago have shown
it in the dealings with the navy
department. 1--WE make the fore
going proposition explains Mr..
Grace, president Of the company
rather than have our plant put
out of existence" This fear has
been repeatedly expressed by the
three chief companies manufac-
turing plate the Bethlehem, Car
negie and Midvale. 1t is estimat-
ed that private equipment valued
at S20,00O,OOO is affected. Mr..
Grace goes on to say, in defense
of his company, that I'VE are
today selling armor to the United
States government at lower
price than England, Germany.
France, Austria and Japan are
paying"
The true comparison is not be-
tween the price which this coun-
try pays and that Wilhelm Japan
pays, but between the price
charged by the Bethlehem, Car
negi and Midvale companies and
the actual cost of manufacture
with a reasonable profit added. 1t
has been shown by more than one
secretary of the navy that exces-
sive prices have been demanded
by the companies, and that there
has been little or no variation in
the quotations submitted. The
Bethlehem company offers to in
ventory its plant, which is fair
and which might be done. How
ever, when it comes to operation,
perhaps the Bethlehem company
may have something to learn. The
railroads simply could not econo-
mize until they had to. The
Bethlehem company may have
similar revelation under the
stimulus of competition.

The earth's atmosphere Ii now be.
aieved to have three fairly distinct
strata, the flrst. extending up to about
i forty-Gve miles. having nitrogen as tho
leading constituent, the second. with
its upper limit at about l25 miles, be-
Ing chiefly hydrogen. and the third
at a still greater height. consisting OF
a very thin gas. which has been named
"geocoronium."
DR.. Alfred Wcsener has attempted
to explain the striking differences Of
color In meteors or shooting stars"
and says that meteors coming from
outer space are not sufficiently heated
In the exceedingly light gas to become
luminous.
Their fall through the hydrogen lay.
-er causes them to become incandescent
and before they reach tho lowest
stratum most OF them arc completely
dissipated. 4 few of the largest, how.

the earth's surface.
1t Is found that the deep falling me-
teors pass through three stages Of
,color-yellow-white. green and deep
red-and 1t Is concluded that the green
Is due to incandescence Of the hydro
gen and the red to that Of the nitro

Washington Butter Markets
Cut to Meet Competition

Tacoma - On the verge Of break
for some time, the Washington butter
market Wednesday weakened and the
price toppled to 80 cents. Local job
bers attribute the drop to the breaking
of the California and Oregon markets.
They say If the Washington market
did not follow in line with its neigh
boring competitors there would be an
influx Of butter from the other two
states. To avoid that situation, prices
were set down and the home trade will
be accommodated by the local product.
Further changes in local prices are
not predicted, although the production
is said to be larger and the cream
production more active.
Fresh ranch eggs continue to get
weaker. Prices are now down to 2l@
22 cents a dozen, the cheapest they
have been for some time. Dealers re-
port receipts rapidly increasing daily,
with the demand about the same. They
are hopeful of strengthening of the
demand.

"Use Own Judgment"
Advice to Woolmen

Pendleton-The National Woolgrow-
ers' association refuses to advise Ore
gon woolmen whether or not to sell
their 1915 clip at the present time.
In letter received here by Senator j.
N. Burgess, of Pilot Rock, who is the
Oregon member of the executive com
mittee of the association, from Secre-
tary S. w. Mcclure, he says:
my advice is that around 5000, 000
pounds of inter-mountain wool has now
been contracted. Fine wool is selling
at from two to three cents above last
years, with cross breeds at from two
to five cents above last year.
"On Monday several crossbred clips
sold at Dillon, Mont, at 81 cents, and
it is reported that the Wood Livestock
company's clip has sold at 80 cents,
and also that 80 cents has been offered
for some quater-blood clips in Western
Wyoming. hope you will give this
information to your sheepmen, but this
association refuses to advise whether
to sell or not to sell. He must use his
own judgment entirely in this matter. !"
