President Wilson's Address to
Congress on Industry Attracts
Favorable Attention, Is Report.

The dyestuffs situation in Europe
dising viewpoints and as affecting the
domestic industry has just been made
the subject of an oral report to the Sec
retary OF Commerce and the president
of the Chemical Foundation by Henry
Wigglesworth, trade commissioner to
Europe. Mr. Wigglesworth expressed
the opinion that the licensing system
conditions in the United States, as 1t
appears to offer an elastic method Of
meeting any unforeseen adverse condi-
tions that may assail industry.
Presidents Views Commended.
The commissioner says that the ad-
dress of President Wilson to Congress
in which he pointed out the need of ap-
propriate legislation in regard to the
dye industry attracts favorable atten-
tion abroad, particularly wherein the
message says the German chemical in
dustry was and may well be again a
thoroughly knit monopoly capable of
exercising a competition of peculiarly
insidious and dangerous kind.
1.-The need of means to properly safe
guard the home industry when discrimi-
mated against" reports Mr.. Wiggles-
worth. lis, therefore. necessary and can
hardly be a tariff or revenue question,
since the security of the several nations
during the war has shown incontroverti
bly, the need of national independence in
the chemical field. particularly as re-
lates to competition not wholly OF a
strictly economic character
The commissioner emphasizes the fact
that other nations recognize the close
| connection between the chemical indus
try and the production of poisonous
gases for warfare. He was told that
within forty-eight hours 80 per cent OF
the chemical producing facilities in Ger
many could have been diverted from
peace-time chemicals to the output Of
warfare gases and high explosives.

but he held 1t we'll under control.
His temperament was a restless and
excitable one. but his heart was full
Of tenderness and in all his relations
with his family and his friends he
was admirable.
He wrote for the workingman un-
der the title Of "Parson Lot" and
told him that he must free himself
from the power Of his own wicked
inclinations before he could pass un-
der the cruel power of bad social con-
ditions. His death occurred in his
beloved Eversley January %. 1875.
shortly before he had been made
canon Of Westminster. and he was
buried in the frst chapel of the
famous abbey at tho right OF the
main entrance.
Kingsley was only twenty when he
met Fanny Grenfell. and she was
the love Of his life. He found In
her a constant inspiration, and from
study of her he came to this CON

The coal miners union in national

so per cent advance in wages and a
week Of 80 hours. Disloyal foreigners,
German agitators and INSCRIPTIONS
organizers are responsible for this
alarming situation.
The people who use coal can not af-
ford to pay the enormous prices to
which this outrageous demand Will
raise coal The limit has been exceed
ed by this demand to such an extent
that 1t ought to cause a revolt on the
part Of the public that will send every
foreigner back to where he came from.
In Germany the people are working
IA hours a day and six and seven days

of the allies work 80 hours week
against their "a hours? How long will
1t be until they win supply the markets
Of the world so much cheaper than we

leading them to precipice where they
will fall to their death. carrying this

pRoFIrEERlNc IN KENTUCKY.

The investigation by the commission
appointed by Governor Black Of the
high cost of living in Kentucky has
had at least one concrete result and
that is proof that S. Thruston Ballard,
Republican candidate for Lieutenant
Governor and millionaire miller of
Louisville, has been charging the peo-
pie OF his home city and State s1.10 a
barrel more for -four than the people
of far away Louisiana. 1t has been
reported that, in addition to this dis
count given the people of New Orleans
of $1.1O below the price he is willing
to sell flour to the people Of Louis
vile. the Ballard mills also pay the
freight on the -four to New Orleans,
which as everybody knows. is quite
some distance from Louisville, involv-
ing freight rate OF hardly less than
so cents q barrel
This Is profiteering with a vengeance
with the people OF Kentucky as its
victim
