Most of theso dyes woro niado In ucrmiiny before tho war started and I tho manufacturers In this country loponded upon that source for tholr supply and so didn't tako tho troub le to loam thx) secret. Whon Hritaln put a chain of boats up and down tho chnnnol, tho 'stuff was off" and Islnco then America has been using up tUio dyes on hand and trying to nioko something Just as good. Cnii'l Ileal tho Dutch nut tho results so far havo not boon very good.
