DYES AND DEFENSE
(From the Denver Times. }

The color Of the clothes you wear
may seem to have little relation TO
the national security Of the United
States. but as a matter of fact the
two are intimately connected.
Upon the development and perma-
nent establishment Of the dye indus
try in this county depends our abil-
ity to defend ourselves in the next
war. The industry which produces
the dye for your clothing is the same
industry which produces the war
gases on which the armies Of the fu-
ture will rely for their ammunition.
You may say. perhaps that
there Is to be no next war;. Let
us devoutly pray that this may
be so. We all have faith that
the coming disarmament con-
ference may hasten the day Of
universal and perpetual peace on
earth. But in the meantime the
world is torn by disorder and conflict
here and there. Human nature has
changed but little. And while with
in the hearts and minds of imperfect
men lie the seeds of national and
racial dissension. that country lives
in fools paradise which ignores
the issue Of national defense.
At the present time. a powerful
and insidious lobby, inspired by Ger
man dreams OF commercial con-
quest and engineered by adroit
agents with pronounced German af-
fliations and interests, is moving
heaven and earth to prevent mo
United States from declaring an em-
barge upon German dyes. II the
lobby Is successful, German competi-
ton will eventually put the Amer
lean dye business completely out Of
commission, and we will be reduced
to the helpless condition OF before
tho war. At that time, 1t will be re-
membered. we could lick our own
postage stampa, but we couldn't dye
them.
To the busy man who has reie-
gated thoughts OF future wars into
the background. II win not seem
such a far cry from the innocent
manufacture Of dyes TO the creation
OF death-dealing gases when he real
ICES how astounding the development
OF chemical warfare was during the
World War. The conflict began with
100 por cent use Of ammunition OF
the usual type; it ended with a 55
per cent consumption OF gas shells
1t is very plain, therefore, that the
next war will be a chemical war. II
will be won in the laboratory.
The dye industry in this country
has grown immensely since the war
but It Is admittedly on no such foot.

ruinous competition of Germany. Th'

In one plant alone, in Germany,
80, 900 men are employed. This num-

The plant referred TO is the Badische
Works. the mainstay Of the German
Cartel or trust. This was one year
after the armistice was signed. To-
day, they have nearly completed an
additional plant for the manufacture
Of vat dyes. They arc keeping their

amount of money he could earn in
seven days at the rate he was then
receiving.
Some years ago father OF good
reputation and well known in Pitts
burgh looked into the eyes OF his
firstborn when the little fellow was
hours old. There is nothing in the
world that makes a man feel his re-
sponsibiliites quite so much as his
first glances at his first-born baby
boy. Musing, the father said to
himself: "I am not rich man; 1
am only young man on a salary,
but will do this for my boy: Today
I'll put S21 in bank for him, when
he is a year old I'll put 500, when
he is two I'll put s19, and so on
until he is 21.
He began doing It. The 21 years
are not up yet, but more than a third
OF the time is and having continued
all these years the prospect is that
he will continue. When the boy is

Not alone in the results that the

growth. but better still, in the re-
suits that the habit OF thrift and

DIsCoRDANr VOICES ON DYES

(From the Massachusetts Herald)
Certain stories regarding the dye
industries OF America and Germany
appear to be dictated by the inter-
ests Of the story-tellers. They are
poved incredible when compared
with trustworthy reports. The Ger
man dye factories cannot be 10Th
flourishing and perishing at the same
time. Some stories have to be re-
jected. Among the discordant voices
is that OF Herman A. Metz. OF New
York. who recently visited his dye
manufacturing friends in Germany.
He says that the German dye fac
tories are operating at less than so
per cent OF their capacity, that they
are experiencing much difficulty
with their labor and in obtaining
raw materials. that they are not
turning out anything new in the
color line because they have neither
the money nor the facilities to con-
duct the essential experiments. and
that they ARE far from being in the
fiourishing condition pictured by
some of our high-tarin advocates"
