OPPOSITION RAISED
TO IMPORT DUT|ES0N
GERMAN DYESTUFFS
New England Senators Say They
Want German Dyes for Their
Textile Industries.
DENY MONOPOLY CHARGE
Special Dispatch From Every Evenings s
Washington Correspondent

Special Dispatch From Every Evening s
Washington Correspondent
Washington, March 24.-New England
Senators have arrayed themselves against
Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
New York in connection with the pro-
posed dye legislation. Senator Moses of
New Hampshire today said the textile
workers of New England wanted access
TO the German dyes on the best terms
possible and were opposed to the embargo
embodied in the bill recently reported by
the finance committee.
Another New England Senator said
the proposed embargo, If authorized by
Congress. would make the du Points of
Delaware masters of the entire dye in
dustry of the country. He said he was
entirely against any such proposition and
would not support "A measure which prom
ised monopoly to any special interest
Or any State.
Senator Watson of Indiana, who lis an
ardent champion of the embargo plan for
keeping the German product out Of the
country. said it was absurd to assert that
the finance committees bill would give to
any interest any special advantage in the
dye markets of America.
The du Points of Delaware are by no
means the only manufacturers of dyes,
said Senator Watson, "and to say they
will be given a monopoly is absurd. If
the State of Delaware is able, through
foresight and energy. TO establish the bulk
of the chemical industry Of the country
within her boundaries, then more power
to the little commonwealth. But there
are lots Of dye manufacturers in the
United States, all Of whom will be free,
under the finance committees bill, TO go
ahead with their business I
The finance committees bill provides
for the licensing of all dye importers by
the Federal tariff commission. Only
such DIVES as cannot be made IN America
will be admitted and then only for use by
the party or corporation applying for q
license TO import them.
Senator Moses said this plan was un-
American because it stopped citizens of
this country from making their purchases
where and when they desired. lie de-
clared he was unalterablv opposed TO the
license system and still more antagonistic
to the embargo plan.
When the hill was reported there were
no enemies in the offing, but the textile
men of New England appear to have
worked up considerable opposition, SO
that the measure, if ii gets through at all,
will be required To weather very stormy
seas. Senator Calder Of New York is
standing by Senator Watson and other
champions Of the embargo and license plan
1t is the only way 10 save the infant
industry from stranCulation, said SEN
ator Calder delaware has not obtained
a monopoly of the dye business. and to
say that the bill Is drawn IN the interests
of the du Points is to talk foolishly.'

General Tasker H. Bliss, American
representative in the Supreme War
Council. not only denied categorically
that he had recommended the brigading
Of United States troops with foreign
armies, as testified by Admiral Sims,
but declared that ''the truth is exactly
the reverse.
General Bliss made his denial in a
letter to Secretary Baker, who trans
mitted it, together with a copy of the
original order assigning General PERISH
ing to command the forces overseas, to
Secretary Daniels. He in turn sent both
on to Chairman Hale of the Senate Naval
Sub Committee, at the same time max

General Bliss wrote. "but the truth is

eyes, sir, certainly can recommend
Tanlac, for, to be perfectly frank
about it, l don't believe l would be
alive today if had not taken it," said
Daniel F. McHugh, 1413 North Fourth
St., West, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, while
discussing the merits of Tanlac re-
Gently. Mr.. McHugh has a wide cir
Gle of friends. He is a member of
local No. Sc, Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen, had been local chairman
R. l. & P. Railway for twelve years,
and is also publisher Of 'Trainmen's
Standard Rules" which has a wide
circulation among railway workers.
Continuing, he said:
"Tanlac has not only relieved me
of my suffering but l have gained
twelve pounds in weight besides. For
four years l have suffered from ca
tarrh of the stomach and a general
nervous breakdown, and have also
been troubled with my kidneys a
great deal. l could not eat the least
thing without having dreadful pains
in my stomach and the pressure of
gas against my heart would cause it
to palpitate something terrible, and
at times l would turn so deathly sick
would have to sit down to keep
from fainting. My nerves were in an
awful condition, and even the rustling
of newspaper would completely up
set me. My condition finally became
so bad I had to quit work and was
confined to my bed for three months.
During these four years l tried
every sort of treatment and medicine
heard of, and as nothing seemed
to do me a particle of good I had
about given up hope, when finally, on
the advice of a friend l decided to
take Tanlac. My improvement was
simply wonderful and I continued
taking it, until now I feel just like
new man. l am back at work and
can eat anything l want without be-
ing bothered afterwards. My kid
neys are in good condition, my nerves
are steady as steel, and in fact, feel
better than I have in years. l never
miss an opportunity to praise Tanlac."
Tanlac is sold in Willmar by Carl
son Bros, in Raymond by Albert
Keinhuizen, and in Atwater by A. L.
Larson, and by ]. P. Olson at New
London.
