statement at all"

DYE EMBARGO
GOES To 0SENATE
FINANCE BODY
Final Arguments for
and Against Bill Are
Heard by Committee.
Chemist Says Germany
Would Control Trade
Unless Congress Helps

Washington. Aug. 9.-Final argu.
ments for and against a dye embargo
in the next tariff law was laid before
the senate finance committee Tuesday
ending another long fight waged over
the plan which has been resurrected
on congress four different times since
the war. The committee plans Wed
nesday to hear members of the tariff
commission on American valuation
provisions of the Fordney tariff bill
and then to determine whether the
two propositions shall be recommend
ed to the senate.
The case of those supporting the
embargo was concluded by DR.. E. H
Killheffer, a chemist associated with
one of the larger dye making concerns.
who said the committee was confronted
with the alternatives of assuring q
dye industry by means of an import
ban. or allowing it to be destroyed by
foreign competition. Ruin would come.
he added unless restrictions we're pro-
vided, adding that German dye manu-
facturers recently had told while on a
visit there of their intention to de-
feat the ambitions of American eye
makers to establish a great industry
here.
On the other side of the question,
George Demming, of Philadelphia. rep
resenting the association of hosiery ard
underwear manufacturers, contended
that there was a danger confronting
textile makers. if they were compelled
to depend on American dye manufac
turers for their supplies. They could
not sell products, he added. which lost
all semblance of colors once they had
been laundered Such situation, he
continued. eventually would result in
American dry goods houses going to
foreign lands for their stocks.

Valuable Diamond Needless
Belonging to Mrs. Mahoney
Found In Husbands Pocket

Seattle, Aug. 9.-After the police
here Tuesday had interrogated James
u. Mahoney, following the Identified
ton of body found in trunk in Lake
Union here as that of his wife, Kate
NJ. Mohoney, missing since April 16,
they announced for the first time when
Mahoney was arrested here May 8, he
had in his pocket diamond necklace,
the property of his missing wife valued
at $4,000. 1t also was reported that
DIR. Frank e. Woods. the dentist, who
identified the body by its teeth, said
he had seen Mrs. Mahoney wearing the
necklace when he last treated her,
April 16, the last time according to
the police, on which she was seen alive
Captain of Detectives Charles Ten
nant said he had been withholding the
discovery of the necklace as detail of
his circumstantial evidence against Ma
honey, but saw no reason for keeping
it secret longer.
Captain Tenant added that the police
had found among Mahoney's effects
other pieces of jewelry believed to
have belonged to Mrs. Mahoney, but
none as valuable as the necklace.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1921-08-10

Mahoney's mother, Mrs. Nora Ma
honey, and his sister, Mrs. Dolores
johnson, were questioned at length by
the captain of detectives. 1t later was
said they had been asked about the
movements of Mahoney and his wife
in April.
They were believed to have gone
east on wedding trip but as soon as
Mrs. Mahoney was reported missing
late in ApriEthe police proceeded on
the theory that she had never gone on
the trip but had met her death in Seat
tie. From the first they maintained
that her body was in trunk in Lake
Union and the trunk discovered yester-
day fitted the description they previous
ly had announced. Detectives also had
asserted that they had evidence that
the body had been treated with quick
lime and this suppositon, too, was
borne out when the trunk lid was lift
ed Monday.
Mahoney was still held on the several
pending cases of forgery connected with
his alleged fraudulent means of obtain
ing access to his wife's property.

STRONG DECLARES
WILLIAMS DID NOT
KNOW ALL DETAILS
Reserve Board Member Says
Former Comptroller Charges
Made Through Ignorance.

Washington, Aug. 9.-New York
banks which obtained great sums OF
federal reserve loans during the money
stringency last fall were closely super
vised, Governor Strong, of the New
York reserve bank, testified Tuesday
before a congressional commission. He
introduced the confidential and almost
daily reports at the time upon "banE
number g." which he identified as the
institution which kept $130,OOO,OOO in
reserve loans and was engaged large
ly in speculative operations.
John Shelton Williams, former comp
troller of the currency and chief of
the reserve systems critics, when call
ed before the commission recently re-
ferred to such a bank as having been
unduly favored.
Investigated Cause.
"We ascertained the cause of credit
demand because we wanted to know
whether loans were justified" Govern
or Strong said, "and if the money was
necessary to legitimate needs of the
business of the country, we furnished
it. If the stock exchange loan accounts
of banks appeared to be rising we
would warn bankers that reserve mon
ey was not lent for that purpose One
of these institutions estimated for us
that it might need as much as $780,
100000 merely to handle an export
shipment of cotton.
"'Now the comptroller (Mr. vii
liams) did not know these things. 1t
didn't concern him, and 1, for one,
never discussed it with him.
Governor Strong said he "hesitated
to make the statement" that stock ex-
change loans would be restricted in
the emergencies because it isn't our
function to control stock exchange
movements and market places where
a place in the great economic fabric OF
the country"
Points to Expansion.
He repeated denials that the in
creased reserve interest rates forced
breaks in commodity prices and said
the reserve system chad fostered and
increased the sentiment that producers
and business enterprises should be
carried through the emergency" He
pointed to expansion of reserve loans
which took place during the period, as
proving that the New York bank "far
from restricting loans. extended credits
to the point which has drawn criticism
upon US"
Governor Strong asserted that the
lending in 1920 of $24O. 100000 from
the reserve system for agricultural
,redits indicated that. by the multipli-
cation of bank credits probably So

CONGRESS HOPES
FOR VACATION BY
END Of NEXT WEEK
Both Houses to Remain in
Continuous Session Until Tax
Revision Bill Is Passed.

Washington, Aug. 9.-Congress, in
the light of Tuesdays developments,
hopes to begin a months recess about
the end of next week.
After a conference with President
Harding. Republican leaders of the
senate and house indicated that both
would remain continuously in session
until the house has passed the tax re-
vision bill which Chairman Fordney, of
the ways and means committee told
the president would be reported Mon
day.
In House by Aug. 20.
In that event. Representative Mon
DELL of Wyoming, the Republican lead
er. announced that it could be put
through the house by August 20, or
possibly day or two later. The pres
ident at conference with Senator
Lodge and Curtis is understood to have
opposed a senate recess before pas
sage of the tax measure by the house
and the plan urged by many senator's
for three day recesses beginning Mon
u.
VERY soon after the passage of the
tax bill by the house." said Mr.. Mon
dell, II believe we can stand in recess
for at least 30 days while the senate
financial committee is working on the
tax and tariff bills. This will be ex-
pediting the public business, for in that
way the finance committee can work
uninterruptedly and make greater
headway."
Funding Bill Goes Over.
Complete enactment Of the farmers
relief program prior to the proposed
adjournment, passage by the house of
the tax revision bill and Of a measure
to extend the emergency tariff bin un-
til the permanent measure is enacted,
were said to have been insisted upon
by the president in his conferences.
He also was said to have expressed
the desire for passage of the admin
istration bill to fund the railroads debts
to the government but was represent
ed as reluctantly willing to let the rail-
road legislation 60 over until after
the recess, if assurances were given
of it's enactment by early fall
The railroad bill was said to be an
obstacle in the adjournment program,
but senate Republican leaders gave the
president little hope for its early en-
saying that protracted oppo-
sition was assured. The president.
however, expressed hope that the bill
at least might be reported to the SEN
ate and its consideration begun before
congress takes vacation.
