Filipinos Fight
Leaf Tobacco Trust;
Ask Federal Help

3 Correspondence of The Associated Press)
Manila, P. l., Sept 26.--Smaller ci.
gar manufacturers of Mainland
they are legion, principally Chinese
have appealed to the government to
break, what they call corner on leaf
tobacco, which has forced the prices
of this article to famine level. Two
European firms, which have put close
to $2,000000 into the purchase of Leaf
tobacco, are accused Of being back Of
the corner. One of these firms is
importing extensively. to Holland,
while the other is holding its stock
locally for big prices.
The New Philippine National bank,
in which the Philippine government is
the largest stockholder, has come in
for criticism at the hands of a section
of the local press for financing the al
legged corner, but it is known that one
Of the firms involved is not client
of the bank. Directors of the bank
furthermore declare that if evidence
can be secured that any loan made
was to foster corner, the loan will
be cancelled forthwith.
Director of Internal Revenue Raj
ferty, who is the government official
closest to the tobacco industry, de-
clares that the unprecedented demand
in the United States for leaf tobacco,
and the increasing American demand
for Philippine cigars were responsible
for the record-breaking purchases and
prices in the Philippine tobacco trade.
He pointed out that up to July ~,
there had been an increase of 440 per
cent in the shipments of Philippine
leaf tobacco to the United States. This
indicated the immense demand and
was a reason for high prices and scar
city of tobacco leaf. Competing buy
ers from Manila are flocking into the
tobacco-producing provinces and of
fering the planters, double the price
paid last year. Never before in the
history of the tobacco business in the
islands have crops been disposed Of
so early in the season.
The, boom has spelled prosperity for
the tobacco planter--a prosperity
doubly welcome because of the de-
preston which followed the outbreak
Of the European war and cut off the
consumption of Europe, one of the
biggest buyers of Philippine leaf to-
bacco.
But the cigarmaker has not shared
in this prosperity. Raw materials of
every kind have gone up in price and
tobacco leaf has advanced enormous
|ly. The American demand keeps his
plants busy, but at loss, since the
greater part OF his export is a cheap
grade of cigar. In the higher grade
cigars, he makes money.
A number of cigar manufacturers
have appealed to the collector Of in
ternal revenue, pointing out that high
prices and cut-throat competition are
forcing ruin on many Manila factories.
The collectors statement suggests
combination to regulate competition
and ntimates that if the present ruin
GUS conditions are allowed to con-
tinue, the government may intervene.

London Likes New
Wound Dressing
Correspondence of The Associated Prcss)

correspondence of The Associated Prcss)
London, Sept. 26.--Opinion among
surgeons and nurses is practically
unanimous in favor OF the advantages
Of new method OF dressing large and
painful wounds, whereby thin layer
of perforated celluloid is substituted
for lint as the first covering for the
raw wound. The plan was tried sue
cessfully first by Sir Allmoth Wright
at St. Mary's hospital, Paddington,
and now promises to become gen
orally adopted.
The celluloid, first rendered soft
and pliable by being soaked in 20 per
cent solution Of carbolic acid and
then washed in week salt solution,
is laid on the raw wound, the per-
forations being so numerous that 1t
seems mostly holes. Fine lint soaked
in 5sper cent solution of common
salt in sterile water is then placed
over the celluloid, after which firm
bandages are applied. Owing to the
celluloid much firmer pressure can be
used than with ordinary dressings.
One surgeon, explaining the advan-
tages Of the celluloid dressing fur
ther, said: "1n many cases the heal
ing of large wound is actually re-
tarded by the general bodily depres-
sion resulting from the pain caused in
the dressing of it, Again, gauze band
ages, when laid directly on the raw
wound, must inevitably. in the pro-
cess of removal, tear away from their
site certain of the tiny new cells which
are formed by nature in affecting the
cure. Every cell thus destroyed has
to be remade, and SO healing is de-
layed,"

Cavalry Men Now

Mounts Stay Behind

Correspondence of Tho Associated Press)
French Front, Nov. 20,--Fourtecn
months have passed since French cav
airy has appeared on the battlehelds
of the Franco-German front as a
mounted force The last occasion of
their employment in their real work
was September 2S, 1915, when sin
gle squadron Of hussars crossed the
German lines in Champagne and
brought back some prisoners.
The French general staff, however.
has not permitted the splendid horsed
regiments, composed OF cuirassiers,
dragoops, hussars and mounted rifles,
to remain idle, They take their turn
with the infantry regiments in the
trenchesl where they do exactly the
same arduous duty as the foot SOL

behind the front to exercise with
their mounts.

Germans on several occasions and
generally with success. Trench war

there, among whom the pot Of some
thing like $500 was divided.
No special Christmas tips were

MoroS Learn Tile-Making
From Imported JapaneSe

Correspondence OF The Associated Press9
Manila, Sept. 30.--The latest step in
the advancement OF the Moro is a
plan to introduce among these Mo-
hammedans, the art OF this manufac-
turc. A number Of Javanese tile max
ers are to be imported into the Moro
country, to settle near schools and
settlements for at least six months.
They will open tile making schools
and it is expected that the Moros will
soon be able to manufacture roofing
tiles as chcaply as the work is done
III Java.
The ,Moros, like other Philippine
tribes, use straw and thatch as roof
ing material 1t is not costly, but it
is highly inflammable and is an in.
Vitation to destructive fires, Tiles will
eliminate the fire danger and not in
crease the cost Of construction.

a Thanksgiving dinner at Thanksgiv-
ing time.
Probably the largest pot distributed
by any club to its employees was that
given by the Commercial club men,
bers. This fund amounted to over
81 800 and kept the house committee
busy for some time checking and di-
viding it into separate envelopes for
the employees in various departments.
The members subscribed very liberal
ly, as they had done in other years,
and thus made up substantial fund.
This was distributed among about six
ty-three employees. All the girls en-
ployed at .he club received their ap-
portionment as well as all the walters
in the dining room, al. the help in the
kitchen, all the porters, pages and
billiard room attendants.
