SHOWS HOW U. S. BEAT
GERMANY IN DYESTUFFS
Exhibit at Woodward & Lothrop's
Displays Results of American
Ingenuity in War Time.

How the ingenuity of American
chemists met the shortage OF dye
stuffs, occasioned by the war. and ac-
cepted the challenge of Germany by
finding substitutes which cover the
entire industry, thereby eliminating
the need of Hun products of this ma
ture. is shown at an exhibit or the
National Aniline and Chemical Com
pany, Inc, at tho store OF Woodward
& Lothrop
On exhibit by the American concern
are the efforts made possible by
necessity, which have cost Germany
her dye trade in this country and
with it's millions of dollars each year,
which that country enjoyed and
thrived on prior to starting the war.
1t is contended by the exhibitors that
the fifty intermediates. which are the
bases of dyes, and which are now
being made in this country. are
equal. If not superior. to those for
merry furnished by Germany. The
display, the exhibitors point out, Is
held to show Americans that their
country is not dependent upon Ger
many for dyestuffs. Before the war
there were no Intermediates from
which the finished products could be
made, and the duty on dyestuffs was
about 20 per cent.
The display is comprehensive and
contains a small laboratory showing
how the dyes are made and tested.
There are also shown samples of the
finished products on wool, cotton, silk
and leather. Also exhibited are ex-
posure tests of American and German
dyes on cotton and wool, showing that
in many cases the American goods
have proved of faster colors than the
German made.
The exhibit contains a portrait of
Sir Williams Henry Perkin, who dis
covered the first coal tar dye, and
piece of the first cloth dyed by him
in 1860. It is q silk of violet shade,
and has retained its color since that
time.
Members of the Senate and House
will be guests at the exhibit on
Thursday evening from Z to 10 o'clock.

TRUSTEESHIPS PLANNED
FOR THE UNDEVELOPED
Five Big Powers Agree on Prin-
ciple Affecting Future Status
of Such Regions.
Cablegram to The Evening Star and
Chicago Daily News. Copyright. 1919.

Chicago Daily News. Copyright. 1919.
PARIS, January 21.-The five big
powers seem to be agreed on the
principle of trusteesfip. which means
that the various undeveloped regions
of the world whose future status
must now be settled will be given by
the league of nations in trusteeship
to various Individual powers for ad-
ministration.
A trusteeship differs from a pro-
tectorate in that the trustee nations
will be responsible to the league of
nations for the manner of administra-
ton. Thus, regarding the perplexing
question Of Asia Minor it has been
proposed to make the following dis
tribution of trusteeships: Palestine
to England, Syria to France. the
region of Smyrna to Greece and the
region west of Alexandretta TO ltaiy.
This proposal is naturally merely
tentative.
The United States and England
seem to be working closely together
at present, while the French and
Italian points of view, originally
strikingly conservative. seem to be
evolving in liberal sense. :,,
1t is understood that France will
take the initiative in proposing the
solution of territorial disputes by the
application of the principle of self
determination and the principle of
protecting the rights Of ratio and
religious minorities. The nations
having the largest technical equip
ment at the conference, and hence
the greatest working facilities, are
England, France and the United
States.

View Of Peace Of Justice.

Hence a peace Of Justice would be
only such a one as neither boycotts
us nor lays upon us intolerable finan-
cial burdens which would make US de-
pendents for all time, nor one which
creates untenabIe borders and robs US
of lands which we require geograph-
ically and economically.
"Mr Wilson and the British states
men have announced their war aims
to be the abolishing of autocracy and
militarism and of making good the
harm the war has done to Belgium
and France. I expect confidently that
they will now demonstrate the up
ri2htness of their intentions. and that
they will not create the impression
that war psychosis now rules there.
just as it ruled with US during the
war"

PEACE Of JUSTICE
Prince Lichnowsky Opposes
Boycotts and Heavy War
Levies on Nation.

BERLIN. January 21 (by the Asso-
cfated Press).-Prince Lichnowsky,
former German ambassador to Great
Britain, today gave the following
statement to the Associated Press:
"a peace OF right and justice, pro-
vided it is not merely to be a phrase
behind which a peace of violence con-
cea1s itself, as pax Britannica, can
only be such a peace as neither en-
slaves nor mutilates the conquered
and which leaves him the possibility
of recuperating, Of paying his debts
and of entering with complete con-
fidence into the peaceful competition
of society of nations. A league OF
nations which has its roots only in
statutes and is not in the hearts Of
peoples is worthless.

Not only ethnograpl1y. but also
geography, should be taken into con-
sideration in establishing borders.

tories, which owe their prosperity

Resolution Of 1917.

'sThe resolution of 1917, to which I
have alluded. declared in emphatic
terms the right of each dominion to
an adequate voice in the foreign poll
icy and foreign relations with which
the proposed league Of nations is in
timately and vitality concerned.
"It is neither necessary nor desir-
able to forecast the exact method by
which this essential purpose shall be
fulfilled in framing the constitution of
the proposed league.
"In addition to the distinctive rep
resentation OF the dominions at the
peace congress, their delegates also
have a place on the panel from which
the five delegates representing the
British commonwealth of nations as a
whole are to be selected from time to
time BY ono or both OF these methods,
as may be determined after due con-
sideration, the dominions may receive
the recognition and exert the influ-
ence which their national ststus de-
mands in the proposed society Of ma
tions."
Canada, Australia, New Zealand and,
to lesser degree, South Africa will
claim the right to enter the league on
the same basis as Belgium and other
similar powers. In some quarters this
is taken to mean that should the occa-

Statement by Sir Robert Borden.

Sir Robert l. Borden. premier OF

tonight the following statement re-
garding the claims of Great Britain's
self governing dominions to place in
the league Of nations as autonomous
nations Of the imperial common
wealth:
I'm the imperial war council in 1917
I had the honor Of moving in behalf
Of Canada a resolution which was ac-
cepted by the United Kingdom and the
other dominions and which declared
that the readjustment of the constitu-
tional relations Of the component
parts of the British empire should be
based on the full recognition of the
dominions as autonomous nations Of
the imperial commonwealth.
'"The principle thus established has
been illustrated and carried into ef-
feet by the peace conference. in which
the several dominions have distinctive
representation as members Of the
worldwide Britannia commonwealth,
which, in one sense, is itself league
of nations.

CLAIM LEAGUE RIGHTS
Canada, Australia and New Zea-

Country.

PARIS. January 81 (by the Asso-
ciated Press).-Canada. Australia and
the other self-governing dominions of
Great Britain have begun AN effort for
individual representation In the pro-
jected league Of nations.
They claim the right to enter the
league with the same status as other
nations The question is now being
discussed by the British and dominion
officials and it will be for the British
government to say whether it shall
ask the peace conference to accord
the dominions individual membership
in the league.
The admission by the peace confer
ence Of the right Of the dominions to
a separate representation at the ses-
sions Is held to have been in itself
tacit recognition of their nationhood.
Tho new proposal. however. goes
further, and 1t is considered that its
acceptance would be - formal nal
dominions' existing autonomy with
the British empire and OF their
equality with other nations. Unofii-
cially it is stated that England will
probably approve the plan. although

Reception is Warm.
There is no question about the
warmth of the receptions in Sioux
Falls and in the three speeches at
st. Paul and Minneapolis. Despite
the rain, immense crowds turned
out, but as usual the curb watch
ers looked on undemonstratively.
The auditoriums. however, pre-
scented a cheering mass whose smil-
ing faces or repeated outbursts of
applause or spontaneous remarks
as they filed out showed clearly
that they liked Mr.. Wilson's style.

river, for the north portion of the
county. The amendment Of
fered by Supervisor Upton,
contemplated a route following the
Monmouth road to the camp
grounds. and west from that place
to Taylor Ridge. This receiced
three votes. Supervisor H. F.
Schroeder was called to the chair
while Upton promoted this issue.
All supervisors opposed to the
routes eventually accepted, failed
to state their grounds for objection
with the exception of Young and
Upton. However, yesterday and at
previous meetings several super
visors have strongly opposed al
lowing the board to record itself
as advocating any route, without
specifying their points of view.
Is Continuance of Policy.
Yesterday Supervisor ". H.
Schillinger of Rock Island, who
has been the leader of the faction
meetings when the issue has been
before the board, said precedents
showed similar action had been
taken by the board in 1914. At that
time certain routes had been rec
commended, two of them for hard
surfacing, and that the ones desig-
mated had been adopted by the
highways commission nearly intact.
He said the action of the board in
favoring this resolution now would
be a continuance of the old policy,
in pointing out the highway really
best for the improvement to be
made.
This settles the question which
was given so much discussion in
the special midsummer session,
when it's opponents succeeded in
tabling it until this meeting. Sup
ervfsOr Nichols eliminated a three
hour road discussion yesterday aft
ernoon by calling up the tabled
Turkey Hollow resolution at
O'Clock, after which the discussion
continued nearly an hour.

against further war that is electric
in its flashes the moment the pos
sibility of more conflict in the
world is held up to them.
Brings Down House.
Mr.. Wilson paints a picture of
war and he brings down the house.
He refers to the bereaved mothers
and wives and asks what they got
out of the war. He inquiries what
the American boys in France
fought for, and when he suggests
that they fought to set up some
kind of international organization
that would put stop to the war
business, the roars of approval are
outstanding marks Of comprehen-
sion and sympathy.
If there is any doubt of the stand
of the northwest, the strong inclin-
alton from the start of Senators
Nelson, kellogg and McCumber
toward the covenant is the best in
dex of the clarity with which they
have read the public mind of their
constituencies. Minnesota and the
Dakotas gave Mr.. Wilson a great
reception because they approve
this cause-not necessarily the po-
IiticaI leader who espouses it. The
president, on the other hand, took
pains to disclaim any political pur-
pose of a domestic character in his
journey and went much further in
the tWin-cities toward pointing out
the possibilities of the League of
Nations as a political issue than he
ever did before. The president said
il he were a "scheming politician"
he would welcome the issue. But
he wants the people to believe that
he has no idea of that sort in the
hack of his mind.
And judging by the way Repub-
Iicans as well as Democrats in this
section have embraced the issue
irrespective Of the party advan-
tage or disadvantage, one gets the
impression that while a few politi-
clans and here and there an editor
or two really believe this is a third
