rom The Tribane's Washington Bureau
WASHlNGTON, Aug 9-Foreseeing
the possibility of months OF delay in
passing the tariff bill unless the hear
ings are cut short. the Senate Finance
Committee to-day decided to limit each
witness to fifteen minutes. This action
was taken against the protest of Sem
ator La Toilette. The limitation does
not apply to hearings on dyes and valu-
alton.
Senator Curtis declared that unless
some rule was adopted to curtail the
hearings, the tariff bill would not be re-
ported out for four months. Senator
La Toilette said this was better than to
get out an imperfect bill.
The committee heard more witnesses
on the question of a dye embargo.
Henry B. Thompson, head of the ad-
visory committee of the War Trade Sec
tion of the State Department, which is
enforcing the dye embargo, who has
large cotton mill interests, explained
to the committee that he is interes ted

Premier argued 'to maneuver the
German population out of Germany
wiil rccoll on its authors, and the
British Empire will never support
such settlemcnt'
Frances main argument against
ceding almost the whole of tDper
Silesa to Germany is the fear that
Germany's already greater population
will be increased thereby, and that
the industrial districts also will pro
vide a means for forging weapons for
the revenge on which the Pan-Ger
mans already are insisting.
The British Premier touched this
point, adding: Il fully appreciate the
great weight attached by France to
the consideration of her security.
II have twice seen France invaded
and l believe the Supreme Council will
give great weight to the French feel
ing in this respect
However, France viii not add to
her security, but will add to her danger
by the course she is proposing in i Up-
per Slasla
In the late war France was saved BY
the justice Of her cause, which brought
the Allies to her Standard
The Allies will always stand by her
If she is unjustly attacked.
But the nations Of the British EN-
pire will not be dragged into war
which might come, in their opinion,
from the oppressive use of superior
power or the abuse of justice in the
hour of triumph by any of their allies
France will be secure so long as she
can say that when she had the power
she used it in accordance with modera
tIOn and euuity'
Premier BRAND, receiving the press
tonight at the Quai d'Orsay, said:
The days proceedings have beer
excellent and have fulfilled our hope
for an amlcable outcome.'
Premier Lloyd George gave the Brit
ish viewpoint and then said:
Il have explained the French theory
If both theories were PIT into prac
tice, we must abandon all hope Of al
agreement, but we have decided tina
after the theory must come 1he prac
tice. We are both ready {" make con
cessions. We have been forced to con
slider the industrial district of Uppe,

that Mr.. Lloyd George hal threatens
