 ID BE UNDERTAKEN
Data Now Being Assembled With View to Drafting Revision Bill as Prom
 ised by Repubs
By AssooIaSed Press

Washington, June 20.--General hearings lcoking toward a. general revision of the tariff will be started by tfne House ways and means committee soon after July 4, Chairman Fordney of the committee announced today at the close of hearings on the request of the potash and dye in- dustries for protection
 Statistics and data, MT. Fordney said, HOW are being assembled and the conn
 lnittee proposes to go extensively and exhaustiyely into the whole subject with
 a view to drafting a bill revising the
 tariff in accordance with the campaign
 promises of the republican majority in
 Congress. A ways and means committee, of
 which Representative Green, republican,
 of Iowa, is chairman will begin hearings
 Monday on the pearl button industry. Regarding protection for the dye i'm dustry today, Dr. Charles H. Harty, former president of the American Chem ical society, said German dyes, disguised as Swiss products, were seeking entrance to this country.
 T am satisfied" said Dr. Harty, that can prove that s1, ,4eo,ooo of the s1,s3f ,5S4 licenses issued for imports from Swift serland in April represents dyes coming | from Germany and by proving them of enemy origin I can block them from com ! ing into this country unless they already have been brought in"
 l Southern truck growers and fertilizer manufacturers appeared in opposition to | the proposed duty on potash and their plea was supported by Representative | Hiutchison, republican, New Jersey, and Byrnes, democrat, South Carolina
 l J. " Geraty, a truck planter of South | Carolina declared that if the proposed duty were made effective the cost of pot ash would be prohibitive to farmers. He | told the committee that truck farmers of | the south were able to produce nearly normal crops the first year the German supply was cut off because of the ac- Icumulated amount in the land, but said | that for the second year the yields fell off 90 per cent, and that this year crops on land for which potash was necessary i would be only 25 to 90 per cent of nor nal The American product, he said is inferior to foreign potash He said similar conditions existed in the potato growing districts of Maine, New Jersey and New York and added that Georgia peaches and Louisiana strawberries fur nished northern markets this year were below normal in quality because of thu
 lack of or inferierity of potash.

nesses desired by Lewis and whether 1t would grant his request that the At torney General be required to present velumineus records, which the latter said would fill the committee room.
 NO RECORD OF LEWIS
 In connection with the seizure and sale of the Bosch magneto plant, MT Palmer charged MT. Lewis did not object to the price at which it was sold, but to the fact that it was bought by Americans. He told the commit tee that there was no record of An- drews, and that the custodian's organ ization first heard of him last June wheL he went to the Bosch company representatives in New York and de. manded a fee for legal service. He got $500. the Attorney General said, on the ground that he was counsel for the general manager of the coms pany, who was German subject.
 Mir. Lewis charges against the Al torney General related to the sale of the Bosch plant, in the organizat tioH Bosch magneto company, whose clerk showed considerable advance from January to June.
 Mr Palmer showed that similar stocks made him advances and de- clared he was glad some good Amer jeans made money out of the Bosch purchase.
 There was some reference to Mir. Palmer's administration in the House today during consideration of the sus- dry civil bill Chairman Good of the priations committee declared that while he had made no inyestiga- ton he had heard in some instances ot exorbitant fees being paid in connoc- tion with the sale of enemy alien prop erty.

KING TRUE DEMOCRAT

T have felt many points of sympathy between the people whom I have the pleasure of representing and the people whom you represent. They are Yery democratic people, and it has been very delightful to find, sir, that you are true democrat.
 All real masters of the sentiments Of the people are parts of the people, and one of the things that gives confidence iu the future of Belgium is the conscious ness that one has of the self reliance and indomitable spirit of her people They need to have a friendly hand ex- tended to them, but they do not need to have anybody take care of them
 "A people that is taken care of by its government is a people that it's govern ment will always have to take care Of but the people of Belgium, if have caught any glimpse of their spirit ane their character, do not need to have any body take care of them. They need, be- cause of the catastrophe of this war temporary assistance to get the means to take care of themselves. That mo ment they have these means the rest O us will nave to take care to see that they do not do the work they are addicted te do better than we do. The minute WI cease to offer this assistance they, vii become our. generous and dangerous rlv. als, and for my part l believe I cal truthfully say that the people of the United States the people of Belgium tt recover their power, to be rivals. to bt rivals in those friends in which they have for so long time proved them selves masters.
 .It is thereA-e with a peculiar feeling of being among a people that l un1er- stand that I have found myself under your .guidances, sir, touching shoulders with the people of Belgium today"

 SYMPATHY OF US.
Declares King Albert Real Democrat, Statesman and Ruler of a Very Demo-

By Associated Press

Brussels, Thursday, June 1s.-At the dinner given tonight in honor of Presi- dent and Mrs. Wilson by the King and Queen of Belgium, with Cardinal Mer- cier and other distinguished guests pres ent. the President, addressing King Al bert, spoke as follows:
 Let me express, sir, the very deep appreciation with which I have heard your Eemarks. You truly say that have come to Belgium to express my own deep personal interests and sympathy sympathy with her sufferings and inter ests in her prosperity; but I would have no personal consequence if it were not my privilege for the time being to repre- sent the people of the United States.
 What gives me confidence in express ;ug this sympathy and this interest is that I know in expressing those senti- a,ents that I am expressing the feelings of the people of the United States.
 There has never been in the United states more general and universal com yrehension of sympathy with the affairs of another nation than that which the people of the United States have had for the affairs and the people of Belgium.
 T have had the very great advantage of seeing the little that 1 have had time to see of the experience of Belgium under your guidance. and l know how true it is, sir, that you speak for youI people. One of the delightful experiences of these last days has been to hear the acclaim from the heart which every where greeted le roi. Their first cry was for their King, the second thought was of 10 and I glad in my heart that it should be so, be- cause I know that I was with req statesman and real ruler No man ha. any power, sir, except that which is given him by the things and people hs reDreSentS.

ALL ABOUT DRECO
Did This Pensacola Man So Much
Good, He Wanted Them All
to Know About 1t.
Relieved His Constipation, Aroused
Lazy Liver, Strengthened His
Kidneys and Rebuilt His
Entire System.

This new medicine Dreco did me so
much good that I wrote letter to
my kin-folks about it, and have told
lots of my friends at the shipyards
about it too said Mr.. w. w. John
son, who resides at Station A, Pen
sacola, Fla.
For years / have suffered from
constipation, gas on my stomach SO
bad at times that 1 would have to
loosen my belt; pains in my back and
limbs. Often had dizzy spells so bad
I thought L would have to quit work
till they passed off. My nerves went
all to pieces, and / didn't know what
a reaL good nights sleep was; it had
been so long since l had one. No
matter how careful / was about what
/ ate, it would be all the same, for
Immediately after eating, / would
bloat UP with gas. and had dull.
heavy feeling in the lower part of my
stomach, and choking sensation in
my throat. / had to quit eating many
things for fear of the results.
Many medicines have been adyer-
tised here in Pensacola that sounded
like they suited my case, and I spent
many a dollar seeking relief, but
somehow when 1 read about Dreco, it
seemed like this was going to be diff
ferent, SO I got a bottle of it, and I
can tell you that it really is very diff
fercnt from the others, for. from the
very start, / began to improve. My
bowels began to act regular and in a
natural way; it soothed my stomach
and put a stop to the gas. My sleep
began to refresh me, and my nerves
became quiet. I noticed that my APP
petite began to improve, so I began to
eat the things wanted, but had been
afraid to touch before, and never had
any bad after-effects. have now
taken two bottles of Dreco, and have
gained in weight. and feel like a diff
ferenr person. Yes, sir, you may but
this in the papers, for it may help
some one else who is suffering as
did. l have already sent lot of my
friends to buy Dreco."

trees that begin to grow in January
because of warm weather are the
chief sufferers since they are likely

The station recommends that the
