To DEMAND VOTE
ON MANY RATES
Of TARIFF BILL
DEMOCRATS SAY
TRepublican a. P. Leased wIrel


WASHINGTON. April 25.-In-
creased duties on drugs, dyes. inks,
and paints proposed in the admins
tration tariff bin came under fire to-
day from senate Democrats in the
second day of general debate on the
measure.
Reviewing the rates in the first
schedule of the bill. Senator King.
Democrat. Utah. said the increases
proposed ranged from $50 to 600 per
cent; presented statistics to show
that imports of'the commodities un-
der discussion were negligible. and
charged that the result of enactment
of the proposed duties would be to
increase the already swollen for
tunes of drug and chemical manu-
facturers at the expense of the
American people,
Attacking what he characterized
as the dye monopoly" Senator King
declared that the propaganda which
he charged that it had circulated was
false. deceitful and designed to mis-
lead the American people for the
purpose of having enacted the em-
barge which it succeeded in obtain
ing" In this connection he warned
corporations and business men gem
orally that unless they treated the
consuming public fairly the people
would rise up in their wrath and
pull down the temple of business.
Serving notice on the senate that
there would be votes on each of the
hundreds OF rates in the bin, Sena-
tor Jones. of New Mexico. a Demo-
cratic member of the finance COM
mittee, asked members of the COM
mittee majority to explain on what
information the majority had acted
in transferring acetyic acid from the
free list to the dutiable list. He as
serted that there was nothing Ia the
printed hearings about costs of pro-
duction in either the United States
or elsewhere, aud that this case was
typical of the action of the ma
jority on the drafting of the bill.
After some cross fire of debate,
Senator Smootsof Utah, ranking Re-
publican on the committee. said Can
ada had ound new process for
making acetyic acid during the war
and that it was a case Of protecting

duction of calcium carbide. At its
conclusion Senator Harrison. Demo-
crat. Mississippi offered a resolu-
ton calling on the tariff committee
for information as to the result Of
operating an emergency tariff bill.
He asked for immediate considera-
ton, but Senator Smoot objected on
the ground that it could be- acted
upon tomorrow without displacing
the tariff bill.
"We were told" said Harrison.
that the emergency tariff was to
be a panacea for all agricultural
ills. We knew that was largely bum
combe. The tariff commission had
gathered the facts and congress and
the country are entitled TO know
what they are The facts will help,
in a wise consideration of this bill"

FEW CROOKS ESCAPE

Daily reports of murders, bank rob-
berries, train holdups, swindles, prison
breaks, and so on through the cate
CORY of crimes, big and little, some
times lead one to wonder whether
most criminals escape punishment or
are caught and made to pay the pen
altyexacted by law. AS matter OF
fact relatively few escape. Fortunate
ly for society fate always stacks the
cards against the crook and the per-
centage is almost unbearable, says
San Francisco Chronicle. No matter
how clever the criminal may be, soon
er or later he overlooks some essen
tial detail and right there is where a
Joker has been slipped into the deck.
Officers of the law may make a hun
dred mistakes and still win. The crook
need make but one mistake to lose.
The criminal inevitably plays a los
ing game. The odds against his sue
cess are prohibitive. Even if all ques-
ton of right and wrong could be
swept aside it still would pay thou
sand times over to go straight.-Ad-
vocate.

Black Walnut Valuable

"Of all the forest trees found In the
original forests Of America" says
American Forestry, ''the black walnut
probably suffered most at the hands
Of the early settlers. This Is due to
the well-known fact that 1t stood upon
the best land in the fertile valleys
and bordering foothills. These areas
were selected by the pioneer farmers
for their clearings and farms. A large
number Of the choicest black walnut
trees were felled and burned simply
to get rid Of them. Many more were
split into fence rails or put to other
similar ordinary uses before the real
merits of the wood became known.
Now the wood Of black walnut
brings a high price. 1t is no longer
destroyed and wasted, but every avail
able piece Is collected and manufac-
tured into some useful article. 1t Is
not used any more for rough lumber,
as 1t was in the early days, but all
Of It goes to factories, where It is con-
verted into finished articles"

the only way In which speech could

stances full Of the deepest human in

Miss Fuller so impressed the Boston
school board with the Importance Of

Bells father, who had invented the
system, the board, upon his recon-

Graham Bell, $500 to come to Boston
and give course Of instruction ut
the school.
He went there April /, 1871, and
thereafter divided his time between
teaching the theory Of visible speech
to the teachers, and in practical In
structions to the pupils. In 1872 he
opened normal school for teachers.
In 1873 he accepted an appointment as
professor Of vocal physiology in the

In 1875, Professor Bell made the happy
discovery that led to the invention Of

RAILROAD FATALITIES FOR 1921

hAlLhOAD "A ALL led roR 1871
Washington, March 29.-American
railroad operation last year resulted in
the accidental death of 5,587 persons
and the injury, more or less seriously,
of 43,324, according to compilations
made public last week by the Interstate
Commerce Commission. This was,
however, a decrease under the totals
reported for 1920, when 6,495 persons
were accidentally killed and 63,7S6 in
jured.
The COMMISSION estimated that the
decrease in number of persons killed
was IA per cent. and 80 per cent in
the number injured, and expressed the
belief that the report chiefly reflect
ed the falling off in traffic" which
occurred during 1921.
AS in former years, a large pro-
portion of the victims were trespass-
ers on railroad property, 2,432 of
the dead and 1880 Of the injured
being so classified. In addition to
the total casualties given, all of which
resulted from actual operation of rail-
road trains, 400 persons working in
railroad shops, offices or other depart
ments, waiting in railroad stations or
otherwise associated with non-opera-
ton activities were accidentally killed
in 1921 and 1851 injured.

WHY CALLED "OLD DOMINION"
Two Explanations Have Been Given

State Of Virginia.

There are two explanations as to
how the state of Virginia came to be
called "Old Dominion" The one CIV
en- In the following account Is gener-
ally regarded as the most plausible !:
"In Capt. John Smiths History Of

the British settlements In America.
He there calls our present Virginia
'Ould Virginia'-the word old being
30 spelled at that time-in contradis-
tinction to the New England colony,
which Is called New Virginia. Here,
then, we have the word 'ould,' the dis
tinctive word Of the title. Now, we
know that, from the settlement Of the
colony to the Revolution, every act
Of parliament, every letter Of the king
to the governor, designated Virginia
as the colony and dominion Of Vir-
ginia. Here Is found the other word,
and the change Uncommon talk from
Oulu NlTBInld u 'oiu Douiihioh was
easy, imperceptible and almost inevi-

The other explanation Is that the
title "Old Dominion" was bestowed
upon Virginia by Charles II, because
the colony had refused to recognize
the government of Cromwell, and, az
ter the execution Of Charles l had
transferred its allegiance to his son.
In gratitude for this loyalty. Charles

LITTLE DANGER APPREHENDED
OF FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE

Outbreaks of foot-and-mouth dis
ease have been frequent in the British
Isles since August, 1918, and prohlbi-
ton of importations into this country
have been almost continuous since that
time. Recently the Bureau of Animal
Industry has been receiving reports OF
new outbreaks with great frequency,
the latest showing that q counties in
England and "a counties in Scotland
contain infected herds and that out
breaks have been found on more than
500 premises.
The department maintains veterl-
nary inspector in London, and ne is
now keeping a close watch of the sit
uation and is studying the methods OF
the British authorities in controlling
the disease. However, there seems to
be little imminent danger to the live
stock in this country as there is now
an absolute prohibition against the i'm
portation of cattle, sheep, and swine
from Great Britain.
