 VAT DYES ASSURED
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, Dec. 15. - A six months supply of German vat dyes, to tide American consumers over un- til the time when American manufac- turers hope to have available a full line of these important colors, is as sured. according to a cablegram re- ceived today from the head of the Ger man dye syndicate by Dr. Charles H. Herty, chemical adviser to the Amer ican section of the reparations com mittee of the peace conference. Parts of these dyes are to be supplied on highly advantageous financial terms by the Germans under the compulsory features of the peace treaty, payments being made in marks at the present depreciated rate of exchange while the remainder will be sold by them in dollar prices, figured at approximately the peace time value of the mark.
 Arrangements for the supply had been made at an inter- r-allied confer ence with the Germans at Versailles on october 1, but the long delay in taking advantage of the stipulations gave the Germans opportunity to de- clare the optional part of the contract cancelled. As a result of strong diplo- matic pressure through the state de- partment, the German cable message today announced that the option would be extended.
