sAkgR 70 . CALLED.
esnats Body 70 Ask Action After Hear
lng War Secretary.

Washington, Jan. 9.--In order to
press the senate legislation, which 1t
regards as necessary to improve the
army purchasing system, the senate
military committee decided to SUSPEND
its war inquiry after hearing Secretary
Baker the latter part, Of this week
on war ordnance and supplies.
Mr.. Baker was invited last night to
appear Thursday. and when his exam
nation is completed the committee
plans to report to the senate on the
progress of its Investigation and rec
ommend legislation which Chairman
Chamberlain is expected to outline in
the report. A bill to create depart
ment OF munitions with civilian head
already has been introduced by SEN
ator Chamberlain. but details of other
proposed measures have not been dis
closed.
Examination Of Charles Eisenman,
vice chairman of the supplies COM
mittee of the Council of National De-
tense, was completed today. and the
committee will wind UP the clothing
branch Of its inquiry tomorrow by
questioning A. L. Scott, Of the supplies
committee. and David Kirschbaum, a
Philadelphia manufacturer.
After championing its bills in the
senate, the committee will return to
the inquiry and take up cantonments,
aviation, the medical corps and other
subjects.
In his testimony today Mr.. Eisenman
defended the work OF the supplies COM
mittee, its policies and personnel, and
criticised the war departments pur-
chasing system, which, he said. was
handicapped by red tape" and the
lack Of officers trained In business.
The committee, he said, had saved the
nbt less than $75,00o,000 on
purchases, and he emphatically denied
that any members OF the committee
had sought advantage thru their OFF,
cial positions for companies in which
they were financially interested.
Capitalization Of authority in the
war department in making purchases
for army environments, Mr.. Eisenman
said, was a prime evil Of the general
purchasing system. A plan for decen-
was submitted to Quarter
master General Sharpe, the witness
said, and was approved "in spirit. but
not In practice"
Eisenman presented new statistics OF
cloth secured for the army by his COM
mittee to substantiate his assertions
that an oversupply had been furnished,
which claim was not in accord with
previously given the senate
committee by General Sharpe.
Nathaniel Stevens. Of North Ando-
yer, Mass. president Of the National
Of Wool Manufacturers,
another witness. told the committee
the use Of shoddy in army garments
has not made them inferior or less
warm.

as completely by surprise as was the
nation by the presidents declaration of
war aims and peace program, In
dorsed in the main the position OF
America in the war which the president
outlined to the world.
The only note of criticism or objec-
ton which was manifested after the
president had delivered his address re-
lated to his reference to trade condiI
lions, many republicans In both houses
believing that he advocated free trade
for the world, thereby denouncing
tariff barriers. To such a policy they
can not adhere and some predicted that
to it the United State would not be
committed.
The Objectionable Section.
The section Of the presidents war
aims which aroused objection reads as
follows:
"The removal, SO far as possible, Of
all economic barriers and the estab-
lishment OF an equality of trade condi-
lions among all the nations conserving
to peace and associating themselves to
its maintenance"
what else can that mean except an
elimination of all tariffs?" Senator
Smoot asked. III that is what 1t
means this country will never be COM
mitted to such policy In any treaty
Of peace.
THE United States will not have
economic free trade fastened upon 1t
at any peace conference" declared Sem
ator Curtis, Of Kansas.
Senator Harding Aroused.
1T the president means by removal
Of economic barriers the establishment
Of world free trade, can not agree
with him." Senator Harding. Of Ohio,
said. III the president had talked about
removal Of political trade barriers or
diplomatic determinations, that would
have been different thing. AS I read
the message. the president advocates
elimination Of all trade tariffs. and that
l am opposed TO and believe the coun-
try will be opposed to It."

Making Nails.

An excellent illustration Of the DIFF
ference between old and new methods
Is the ordinary common nail. For
merly the metal was cut into strips and
then forged into shape with hammers.
and an expert took about one minute
and 4 half for each nail. Today they
are made OF steel and are lighter
and stronger. Strips are cut with
steam shears and fed into automatic
machines. One man tends three ma.
chimes, dropping . nail every second.

Wool Situation Bright.

A short time ago some public state
ments were made that there was no
shortage Of wool, but those familiar
with the conditions know that there is.
Farmers realize that considerable
wool vii lbe needed the coming year.
and they have purchased thousands Of
sheep and lambs from which they ex-
pect to get clip in order to cut down
this shortage.
They expect good price. and II Is
certain that they, will get 1t, because
the demand Is in excess Of the pro-
duct. avlues the past year scared to
a record level.
Not only Is there shortage Of wool
in the United tSates. but the CROP tax
en- the world over, Is the smallest in
years. This is due partly to the war.
which curtailed production and In
creased the need for this by product

The man in the country is getting

eral seasons before the demand will be
supplied, and he must not stop at one
year, but must keep in the industry
