to order the tariff commission to make a study of the invasion The order wras the direct outgrowth of protests from manufacturers that their trade was injured by rapidly growing imports from Japan Protests against imports of bleached cotton ' cloth from J apan were emphasized in a plea on behalf of New England textile mills made to the president by a delegation of governors from the New England states The governors coupled a request for elimination of the procesing tax with the suggestion that there be imposed an import duty of 100 per cent of the cost of American manufacture plus 10 per cent The president pointed out that even if Japanese exports of bleached cotton goods to the United States continued at an accelerated rate through the year they would represent less than 1 per cent of domestic production Since the first of the year a total of 24-- r 759000 square yards of cotton cloth has arrived in the United States of which square yards were from Japan ""JIIIIM chit-cha-
