U.S. IS INCREASING PRODUCTION
OF ALIZARIN AND VAT DYES.
LONDON. June 29— Practically official advices re
in the domestic production of Alizarin and vat dyes, which
includes some of the best and fastest colors known to the
textile trade, is foreseen by the Tariff Commission as a re
sult of the census of the coal-tar products industry.
Dyes produced in the United States in 1917 equalled,
in amount the annual imports before the war, but differed
in the quantities of the various classes. The output of Ali
zarin and vat dyes was less than three per cent of the
amount usually purchased. The lack of developments ol
manufactures promise to be remedied to a considerable ex- i
tent in 1918, for a number of firms have begun the manu
facture of dyes in a large scale.
FORMER CZAR SURELY DEAD.
LONDON, June 29— Opening a national kitchen at
•ceivedhere confirm the fact that the former Czar of Russ
ia as murdered, after a court martial by the Bolsheviki.
ENGLAND OPENS NATIONAL KITCHEN.
WASHINGTON, June 29— A large increase this year
Stoke Newington, Mr. Clynes, Parliamentary Secretary
to the Ministry of Food, said there were not enough of
these instutions in existance.
“The best meals 1 have had of late have been those ob- ■
tained under such conditions as in this building where food i
is prepared under sanitary conditions, and where you are
certain there is no motive for personal gain or profit”, he
said. * 4 ,,
