SUMNER VISITORS
INVADE LONG BEACH
-W.S.S.-

Long Beach, Cal, June 11.-This
famous seaside resort will again IA
.vor its great host of summer visitors
with a municipal band during THE
summer months and daily concerts
are given twice daily on the sandy
strand near the Hotel Virginia. This
lis one of the few resorts on the Pa
cific coast maintaining its own mu-
nicipal band and no charge is made
to visitors.
| According to Lynn w. Ballard, sec
retary of the Chamber Of Commerce,
more visitors have arrived during the
month of May and the first of June
than have ever before been noted at
this resort and he declares that this
will be the biggest season in the his
tory of Long Beach. Every train
and street car brings large num-
Der of visitors from inland cities of
various parts of Southern California,
A rizona, New Mexico and Texas.
Owing to the great influx Of sum-
rner visitors to Long Beach, there
has been a large demand for descrip
tive literature of the resort and the
Chamber of Commerce has been kept
busy mailing out illustrated folders
to prospective visitors. All who de-
sire to go away this summer should
write for this information, as well as
hotel rates, etc, and in buying tick
e.s it is a good idea to purchase them
aiding direct to Long Beach, as this
will eliminate the necessity of re-
checking baggeg in Los Angeles.

INCREASE DYE
MANUFACTURES
---W.S.S.--
(By Associated Pcess)

WASHINGTON. June "a large in
crease this year in the domestic pro
duction of alizarin and vat dyes, which
include some of the best and fastest
colors known to the textile trade, is
foreseen by the tariff commission as
4 result of the sensuS of the coaitar
products industry.
. DYES produced in the United States
in 1917 equalled in amount the annual
imports before the war, but differed
in the quantities of the various closes.
The output of alizarin and vat dyes
was less than three per cent of the
amount usually purchased. The lack
of development of manufacture prom
ises to be remedied to considerable
extent in 1918, for number of firms
have begun the manufacture of dyes
on a large scale.
Coaltar products produced in the
United States last year amounted to
54,367 1894 pounds, worth sos, ,22S,
not including explosives and synthetic
phenolic resins. Dyes amounted to
nearly 46,000,000 pounds, valued at
57,796027, medicinal chemical 2,236,-
161 pounds, worth s. 5,560,237; and fla
vors 779,416 pounds, worth 1868, ,456.
There were 81 establishments engaged
in the Manufacture of dyes alone.
In the classes of dyes which if i'm
ported would be dutiable at so percent
plus five cents pound, the American
manufacturers have shown remarkable
progress, producing 43,S1O,359 pounds
at total value of S57 ,639 800. That
this represents something of an excess
over the American needs is evidenced
by the fact that during the fiscal year
1917 American-made dyes to the value
of S11,7O9,2S7 We're exported to other
countries Thus the exports exceeded
the pre-war imports in total value, al
though not so large in tonnage nor in
the variety of the dyes.

BRITISH ARMY
CAUSE OF PEACE

(By Associated PresS)

With the British Army in Mesopo-
tamia, May / (By maiD-The peace
ful penetration of the Euphrates coun-
try from Feluja to Hilleh began in
April last year, month after the
British army entered Bagdad. Before
the Turk was finally routed on the
TigrIs, Great Britain had begun to
tap the resources of the Euphrates.
For months during the hot weather
the roads from Hilleh and Museyib to
Bagdad were obscured by the dust
of camel and donkey conveys bringing
in corn Arab levies were raised to
police the roads, villages and towns,
and the country was cleared OF bands
of marauders. This year, owing to
the success of the Euphrates irriga-
tion scheme, the supplies from the
1 Euphrates side will be enormously in
/ creased and the transport of the
country will be hard put to it to bring
in the grain. The British engineers
have been at work on the irrigation
scheme connected with the sHindieh
barrage, or dam, which was finished
before the war, but the Turk neglect
ed to profit by it. The canalization
work connected with it was left in
complete, and the area to be cult
waited was never brought under irri-
cation.
The Euphrates divides at Hindieh
into two branchese, the Shatte1-Hilleh
to the east and the Shatt-el-H -Hindieh
to the west, and the two channels OF
the river meet again a few miles
above Samawa.
The function of then dam was q
