ASK HEAVIER DUTIES
Increased Import Tax OH Non-EXpOscd
Sensitized Films is Advocated

Washington, Dec. 23.-Increased
import duties on motion picture films,
sensitized but not exposed, was urged
before the senate finance committee
today by Charles II. Cole of Boston,
speaking for the Bay State Films Co.
Boston; the Eastmas Kodak Co.; the
Ansco Co, and the Powers Films
Products all of Rochester, n. y.
The witness said foreign competi-
ton, largely German already had re-
suited in the closing Of two Of the five
film factories in the country.
In place Of the 90 per cent, ad
valorem rate in the Fordney bill, Mr..
Cole asked for a specific rate of three
quarters of one cent a foot on posi-
tive films and one and one quarter
cents q foot on negative films If speci-
fic rates are not granted he urged an
ad valorem rate of 35 per cent on
American valuation or so per cent on
foreign valuation.
Mr. Cole said this duty would
euualize the difference in manufacture
Ing costs in this country and Europe
but would permit imported films to be
sold in America at profit.

FIELD MUSEUM
PLANT PRODUCTS
Collection Growing and New
Points Discovered

Chicago, Dec. 23.-The collection OF
plant products at the Field Museum
here is being augmented by repre-
sensations and models of living plants
based on living material Obtained as
far as possible where it naturally
grows at its best. They have, besides
their faithful realism the virtue OF
always showing the plant at the par
ticular stage which is botanlcaily
most Significant something which
even a greenhouse cannot do. Spe-
cial, important features, if minute,
are to be seen enlarged, as are the
microscopic plants.
This collection is growing and will
in time include a sufficient number OF
typical plants from all divisions OF
the vegetable kingdom, living and eX-
tinct, to give the visitor a compre-
hensive idea of its scope and great
variety. Among them will be not only
| the well known economic plants OF
the world but also some of the re-
markable, botanical rarities like the
parasitic "Rafflesia" c. Sumatra, a
plant of the tropical forest, without
stem or leaves but with flower the
size of half a barrel which no botan-
nical garden has ever been able to
rear the widely different but equally
curious and almost extinct 'Tumboa'
Of the South African desert, relic of
another age, the vegetable sheep Of
Australia and others known Ivy repu-
tation to botanists, but which only
| few white men have ever teen.
The most recent addition to the eX-
| hibit is a reconstruction of the top Of
a cocoanut palm. AS placed in its
| case, this Is to De seen from van
tage point ordinarily enjoyed only by
birds or monkeys, or by small woody
| haired boys in quest of nuts. The
long trunks has of necessity been cut
away and even some Of the twenty
| foot leaves could not find room in the
case, but the visitor sees before MIN
at the level of the eye the fruit.ng
and towering portion of the tree. Ee
may see the whole process of flower
| ing from the first appearance of the
bud and its opening as a flower clus-
ter through every stage of the devel-
opment into the big green fruits and
| into the more familiar dry, mature
nuts which hang in clusters of a dozen
| to fifteen from the loWermOst leaf
axis.
In an adjoining case may be seen
no" the cOCO-palm sprouts from the
nut and some details OF its structure
and products. These include the
"copra," the dried coconut meat OF
commerce; CoconUt oil expressed from
it which forms a valuable vegetable
fat of increasing Importance with the
impending decline in the worlds pro
| ducton Of animal fats, highly es-
teemed for fine soaps and widely en-
tering into the composition of butter
substitutes. There are fermented
drinks made from the coco palm sap
tuba" and "toddy" soap and candles;
vessels made from the inner shell OF
the coconut; rope, cord, mating anG
brushes made of the ibrous outer
husk or "coir"; wood Of the coco
palm, known as 'porcupne wood
and articles made of it; matching and
native dress material from the leaves
etc, there being apparently no part OF
the tree which does not find some
