WE HESITATE to make a com
parison of Royal resources
against the other electrotypers of this
country. The difference is so great
that it seems unfair particularly
when the comparison is local. But, on
the other hand, how is the local buyer
to know that this difference exists un
less we call his attention to it? If he
buys elsewhere because he has been
told that "The Royal is a Trust," we
both lose but he loses most. We
admit that we have a monopoly in the
skilful making of electrotypes, but
beyond that we are wholly dependent
upon the common sense of our cus
tomers who prefer facts to fallacies.

DEMOCRATS IN CAUCUS
VOTE TO AID WILSON'S
FREE SUGAR REPEAL
Ten House Members Refuse to
Be Bound, While Others Vote
84 to 20 to Support
Administration
KEATING'S DENUNCIATION
i WASHINGTON, Feb. lS.-Tho Demo
crnts of tho House met In caucus last
night nnd voted, SI to 20, to support the
Administration bill for tho repeal of th
free-sugar clnuse of tho Underwood tariff
law. Tho bill will bo promptly reported
by tho Ways nnd Means Committee. Ten
members refused to abide by action of
cnucus.
Tho proposed repeal was bitterly de
nounced by Ttepresentntlvo Edward Keat
ing, a Colorado Democrat, who nsscrtcd
thnt the party was repudiating Its free
sugar promises. In th campaign text
books of 1511, Mr. Keating said, the party
hnd boasted that It would drive the sugar
lobby from the Capitol nnd put sugar on
tho frco list for the benefit of the con
sumer. Majority Lender Kltchtn made no nt
tempt to defend tho reversal ot position,
except on tho ground !'nt It was made
necessary by tho revenue situation. Ho
said the Administration hnd decided thnt
the prevailing duty on sugar, which pro
duces moro than 40.000.000 nnnunlty, must
be retained.
Several members heckled Mr. Kltchtn re
garding the additional revenue plans of tho
Ways nnd Means Committee. Tho major
ity leader was In tho main noncommunl
catlve, although ho said tho committee
planned to raise the hulk of needed rev
onuo from tho Income tax. This statement
was vigorously applauded.
Mr. Kltehln also told the caucus that
tho committee was seriously considering
nn excise tax on the production of ma
terials of war, but no deflnlto revenuo
program has been mapped out. Ho also
said tho cnmmltteo hnd before It sug
gestions for tnx levies on movlng-plcturo
Minis, phonograph records, nttomoblla
horsepower, automobllo tires nnd other
articles.
Tho committee will recommend repeal
of the stamp taxes of the emergency war
revenuo bill, It was predicted.
That the majority leader la becoming re
signed to tho prospect of largo npproprla
tlons for national defense was shown
when ho told tho caucus that ho did not
know how much the preparedness pro
gram will cost, "hut It probably will run
up to ah Igh flguu" Tho repeal of the
frco sugar clause, he Bald, was a part of
tho revenue legislation which must bo en
acted because of tho Administration's pre
paredness bills.
Mr. Kltehln wns nsked why tho Treas
ury Department did not Issue bonds and
pay for preparedness, nnd If tho Wayn
nnd Means Commutes wns considering a
bond Issue. The majority leader said the
Treasury already had authority to sell
Panama Canal bonds, but It was not re
garded ns wise to pay for preparedness
In this way. Ho ndded thnt ho did not
believe thero would be a bond sale.
