Not Concession to Delaware

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July L.
one Of Deiaware's greatest industries

concession to Delaware. The ways

Fordney said. had in mind the pro-
lection OF the Nation when II placed
three year embargo on the i'm
portauon OF dyestsuffs.
Mr.. Fordney declared that II Del
aware got any incidental benefit
from such legislation she was en-
titled to II because citizens of the
Diamond State were among the
first to inaugurate the new Ameri-
can chemical industry.
1T has been said that certain i'm
portant Delaware citizens had in
nuenced the Ways and Means Com
mittee in its determination 20 give
necessary protection to Americas
newly born dye industry" said Mr..
Fordney. This is a slander. We
acted as we did because there was
no other way Of saving the industry
from strangulation in infancy.
Moreover, IL is very necessary 10
be prepared for every contingency
God forbid that we should have an
other war. but II we do we should
have the chemical industry on such
foundation that we will be able tc
control the manufacture OF explos-
ives which depend for their exist
ence upon an intimate knowledge OF
dye processes.
"Of course our citizens are not go

to be overwhelmed by the foreigi
maker. Delaware didn't decide thi
matter, but IL she gets any incidenta

HOUSE PROVIDES
4O-6O PAY PLAN
Bill Brings New Difficulty in
Adjusting District Fis-
cal Affairs.

More difficulty in adjusting the
fiscal dispute between the House
and Senate in relation to the Dis
trict appropriations was forecast
yesterday in the legislative, execu-
tive and judicial appropriation bill,
which provided that the District pay
so per cent and the government 40

men and police.
In the sundry civil bill. which was
reported last week and passed We'd
nesday, the ratio was $3.50, and
Senator Curtis intimated that an
agreement was about to be reached d
between the Senate and House con-
ferees on the Jones-M -Mapes bill.
Though Senator Curtis did not say
definitely the agreement would be
on the 500 basis, by which the
gOvernmenet would share equally
the District expenses, he allowed
this to be inferred by allowing the
$3.50 arrangements in the sundry
civil bill to go through when the
question was raised by Senator King
of Utah
With the legislative bill, which
was reported yesterday by Senator
Warren, chairman of the Approrria-
tions Committee, and the sundry
civil bill at odds. it is apparent that
a change of sentiment occurred
following the meeting several days
ago of the Conferees on the Jones'
Mapes, or $3.50 bill. The District
appropriations bill has not yet been
reported out OF conference, and it is
probable that some adjustment will
be made during final consideration
of this measure

INQUIRY ORDERED

Minnesota Governor Hears
Postal Machine Was Junked
In Germany.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. 1o-Gov
Preus today ordered Lieut.. Col.
Garis. of the Minnesota Aviation
Section. to investigate the accident
which resulted in the death of three
in a government airplane at La
crosse. Wis, late yesterday. In,
formation reached the governor
that the plane was one of several
that had been "junked" in Ger
many. rebuilt and shipped to Amer
lea, and placed in government air
mail service.
The plane, JL-6. dropped 500 feet
killing the two pilots and a me
chanic instantly. Those killed
were: W. L. Carroll, Minneapolis;
Arthor Rowe, Chicago; Robert B
Hill. Havana, Ill.
Representative Madden of Illinois
whose resolution brought about q
Congressional investigation of the
purchase of the German planes by
three government departments
said "it was a terrible shame tc
think that our men should be sent
up in them when the postal authori-
ties knew the construction wa:
faulty"
It's an outrage when we have
about $500 American planes lying
about in different places. The de-
partment discovered some time age
that the construction was faulty
and claims to have rebuilt them to
obviate the danger OF fire.
The Postoffice Department said
the German planes were an advance
in the air science and that they were
also bought because they could run
Eve miles on a gallon of gasoline
while American planes could make
but two and one-half miles.
The fact is, however, that the
German planes burn benzol; they
won't run on gasoline. The benzoI
costs about so cents a gallon and i.
more infammable than gasoline
The Navy Department and the War
Department each bought three OF
these Iplanes for experimental pur-
poses, but as yet have done nothing
with them"

BERGDOLL ESCAPE
BRINGS DECISION
FOR FULL INQUIRY
Committee Determines to
Fix Responsibility for
Army Laxity.

An investigation by a special Con-
gressional committee that will sift
to the bottom all circumstances sur
rounding the escape and flight to
Germany of Grover Cleveland Berg
doll, millionaire Philadelphia draft
dodger, was recommended by a
unanimous vote of the House Mill
tary Affairs Committee yesterday.
The committee also will clear up
the mysterious disappearance of D.
Clarence Gibboney, Bergdoll's law
yer, reported to have been drowned
in the Bay of Campeche, Mexico,
December 2S.
The Military Committee instruct
ed Chairman Kahn to ask for a spe-
cial rule to Immediately bring up
for passage in the House a resolu-
tton authorizing an inquiry.
The committee feels enough has
been developed to demand a thor
ough inquiry" said the chairman.
Lsxity Revealed.
The big point in the investigation,
Chairman Kahn made plain, will be
the apparent laxity OF the War De-
partment in taking precautions to
prevent Bergdolrs escape. The
question of undue political influence
used in securing his release from
Fort Jay prison will also loom
large.
The committee was impressed
more than anything 'se with the
laxity of precautions which should
have been taken in handling a man
like Bergdoll," declared Chairman
Kahn. Three times Mai. Hunt,
commandant OF Fort Jay, was warn
ed that Bergdoll was a dangerous
man and would try to escape.
Even two sergeants detailed to
guard him suggested that they be
permitted to handcuff him. But
Maj. Hunt refused. He said Berg
doll should not be made conspicu-
Gus. The guards were told to carry
out their orders quietly and then
forget the whole affair"
To Hear westcott.
One important witness at the pro-
posed investigation will be Judge
John w. Westcott. of Morristown
n. J. He is a close friend of Presi-
dent Wilson and made the nominat-
ing speeches at both the Baltimore
and st. Louis conventions.
Evidence before the committee
shows that the judge received ST.
200 out OF the $4,000 turned over
to Gibboney by Bergdoll. This fee
is said to have been paid to him as
an advisory counsel"
The action was taken by the COM
mittee after a preliminary hearing
at which Charles D. McEvoy, Fed
eral district attorney at Philadel-
phia- was the only witness. Mr..
McEvoy, who conducted the legal
investigation of Bergdolrs escape
and prosecuted his mother and sew
eral friends for conspiracy, gave the
committee a detailed history OF the
entire affair.
