TAX
ON COTTON TO
Be RETAINED
Dixie Textile Mills Helped
By Action; May Close
New England Mills

WASHINGTON, Aug. %. (UP)
President Roosevelt's cabinet
committee which spent months
investigating the cotton textile in
dustry, recommended yesterday
that the cotton processing tax be
continued and that the admins
tration seek a friendly agreement
with Japan to limit imports of its
cotton products.
The committee rejected prOpos-
ais to subsidize cotton textile eX-
ports on the ground that foreign
countries might take retallatory
action.
President Roosevelt sent the
report to congress and made pub
lie at his semi-weekly press con-
ference a letter from the commit
tee summarizing its findings. The
committee was composed Of Chair
man Daniel G. Rope, Cordell
Hull, Henry A. Wallace, and Miss
Frances Perkins.
Congressman from the New
England textile area found the
report disappointing" Southern
representatives, however. asserted
that it upheld their contentious
as to the necessity of maintain
ing the processing tax.
BOSTON, Aug. 22.-(UP)-
President Roosevelt's special COM
mittee findings may prove the
death blow to the textile industry
in the east, New England manu-
facturers and a state governor
said last night.
Mill executives pointed out
that the industry's sole hope now
was a decision against the pro-
cessing tax by the U. S. supreme
court.

LAFAYETTE HAS
8 MODELS

Lafayette. the low-priced car
produced by Nash Motors, enters
its second year with five standard
and three special body types. A
new system of "synchronized
springing," together with stream.
line design and 80-horsepower, six.
cylinder engine, characterize the
latest models.
One of the salient innovations
is the use Of a sealed water Sys-
tenn, said to lengthen considerably
the interval between refills and
permit high,speed driving in
mountainous country. With the
cooling system there is no waste
of water through the overflow
pipe in starting or stopping sud.
denly and no chance for evapora-
ton while the car is running.
Individually sprung front wheels
are optional without charge on
special models.
The starter is connected with
the clutch pedal. Brakes are Of
the rotary controlled mechanical
type. An extra wide tread of
nearly 80 inches is said to add to
the cars roadability at high speed.

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-warn-

is . definite improvement in
street and highway safety was
sounded by Thomas P. Henry, Of
Detroit, president Of the Ameri-
can Automobile Association, speak
ing before the semiannual meet
ing Of the A. A. A. board Of direc.
tors here.
Mr.. Henry said the accident
record for 1884 was far and away
the worst in the history Of motor
transportation in the United
States, some $4,000 men, women,
and children, having been killed
as the result of traffic casualties.
A determined effort to abolish
Federal automotive taxes and to
end diversion of motor tax rev
enue was urged by Mr.. Henry.
He pointed out that the special
tax bill on motor transportation
amounted to $1,214,00O,O00 in
1884, a gain Of $s6,oo0,0o0 over
1888, and that the rate Of di.
version Of motor taxes increased
more than 100 per cent during
