ESTABLISHED 1873 G.0,P.T0 FIGHT FOR LABEL FOR , REVENUE BILL With Both Houses Practically in Agreement on Major Is- NEAR FINAL ACTION Main Schedules go to Confer- ence Are Income Tax and Corporation Schedules BILL PASSED Washington, May 10.—The tax reduction bill was passed today by the Senate, It provides for a 25 percent cut in income tax payable this year and permanent revision down - ward of practically every federal tax, The Democratic proposals for reduction in the income sched- ule, modification of the corpor- ation tax and full publicity of tax returns constitutes salient provisions of the measure. These and. other changes made in the bill as passed by the House must now be taken up at a conference between members of the House and Senate. ; Without a record vote the Sen- ate adopted just before the final rall-call an amendment by Sen- ator Simmons, Democrat, North Carolina, increasing from $2,000 to $2,500 the exemptions for heads of families, with incomes of $5,000 and over. Heads of families with incomes of less than $5,000 now have such an exemption. The vote on final passage of bill was 69 to 15. Twenty-nine Republicans and two Farmer-Labor Senators vot- ed with a solid Democratic line- up for the bill Washington, May 10—The scope of tax revision provided in the Sen- ate revenue bill differs slightly from that proposed in the bill as passed by the House. The vital sections of the measure, however, were transformed in the Senate to conform to the program of the Democratic-insurgent Repub- lican coulition as compared to com promises effected by Republican or- ganization leaders in the House. All sections on which 4 difference prevails between the ‘House and Senate must be worked out in con- ference. Provisions which we adopted by both chambers automat- ically stand, The main sections which must go to conference for final adjustment are the income tax schedule, the peorporation tax, and publicity of re- turns and estate taxes. Where They Agree Important provisions on which the House and Senate are in practical agreement ar A cut of 25 percent on all income taxes payable this year. Reduction of 25 percent on earned incomes. The House set $20,000 as the maximum to which this cut could be applied, and the Senate reduced it to $10,000. Reduction in many of the miscel- laneous and excise taxes, and re- peal of a number with the excise rate changes effective 30 das after enactment of the~bill. Thosa excise taxes ordered repeal- ed by both the House and Senate and the amount of revenue involved are: Telegraph and telephone messages, $34,000,000; beverages, $10,000,000; candy $13,000,000; knives, dirks and daggers, $30,000; liveries, $140,001 hunting, shooting and riding gar- ments, $180,000; yacht and motor- boats (sail) $319,000; carpets, rugs, etc., $1,800,000; | theaters, circuses, shows (floor tax) $1,600,000; drafts and promissory notes, $2,150,000. Both the Senate and House agreed to the following excise tax reduc- tions: Exempt theater admissions of 50 cents and under from 10 percent tax, loss of revenue, $33,000,000; cut in half five “percent tax on automobile loss of revenue, exempted automobile trucks, chassis of which sell for less than $1,000; loss of revenue $5,000,- 000; cut in half tax on produce ex- change sales, loss of revenue, $4,000,- 000. $21,000,000; « Differences Shown differences in’ excise rate reductions are to be worked out in conference. The House proposed from the jewelry tax selling for $40 or less. The Senate eut this down to $25. Both bodies agreed, however, to gxempt from the tax watches selling for $60 or less. A 50 percent cut ordered by the House in the tax on billiard pool tables and bowling alleys was reject- ed by the Senate. The Senate voted to increase from five to 10 percent the tax on all coins operated machines, An in- crease also was voted by the Senate in some of the brokers’ seat tax. A new tax of 10 percent on Mah Jong sets was inserted by the Sen- ate. The contest in the conference on the income tax schedule will be rincipally a fight to put a party label on the .provisions, These rates vary only’ slightly, but the Democrats obtained credit for the schedule adopted by the Senate while’ the House plan was adopted by a strictly ‘Republican vote. ito exempt ail articles WHEN 1200 CHEATED DEATH which cau The British steamer steamer Prabensten, grims aboard. and took off the In, lower right me JOINT EFFORT IN BOOSTING N.

Most of the other work on this building has been finished, including the placing of steel _bookstac' of the work in The first floor corridor memorial building will be especially beautiful when the marble work is finished, it is believed, Napoleon grey marble, obtained from Missouri, is being used for the baseboard in the corridors on all floors and also for the stairs, The first floor cor- ridor walls will be of Italian Trav- ertine marble, brownish in color, the marble reaching to a height of 10 feet eight inches from the _ floor. The corridor ceiling is 14 feet in height. The two vestibules of the building are of Mankato marble, obtained from Minnesota, The floors are of Terrazzo. The building is not being finished as elaborately us was originally planned, because of, lack of suffi- cient appropriation, and the marble work was curtailed considerable. However, about three carloads of marble is required for the building. The marble work is being done by the Drake Marble and Tile Company of St. Paul, in charge of C. A.

But a great deal of help is needed by women of the city seeking to provide this super- vision during the summer. They need supervisers, and persons who will give some time to sup- * ervision work are asked to be at the Roosevelt school at 7 p. m. next Tuesday, the first meeting, or in the meantime to inform Mrs. H, F, Keller they will as- sist.

P.)—Definite decision to have thé House consider the MeNary-Haugen farm relief bill at this session of Congress was reached today by Re- publican leaders. Assurance was given supporters of the measure that it would be tak- en up by the House the last of next week or the first of the week follow- ing. Senator Norbeck, Republican, South Dakota, who has charge of the farm relief fight in the Senate, said he would be satisfied with the action of the rules committee if it was sup- y verbal assurance of some leader. The farm bloc was not content wita the agreement reached this week by a Republican conference “that seime relief measure would be considered,” it was indicated but wanted the promise made a part of the printed record Later Senator Norbeck said he had decided to withhold his proposed motion to put the McNary-Haugen bill on the revenue Expects Passage The Senator said the relief bill probably would puss the House and ar bill as a “rider.” Senate and certainly would become a law if it got a little boost from the White House. - His decision to withhold the motion, lie said, was reached ‘after he hed been informed of the decision of the House rules committee and after conference with representatives a’ delegation of Northwest here to and support the meusure. He had assured by Senate leaders, Senator Norbeck said, that the bill would be given. consideration as soon as it reachc. the Senate, probubly in 7 or 8 days. He added that another reason for withholding the motion was that a number of Senators favoring the tax bill said they would not vote for it with the farm bill “vider” although — they would vote for the farm bill as 4 separate measure. Sees Coolidge Announcement of the decision to give the bill right of way was made after Chairman Snell of the rules committee had discussed the legis- lative problem with President Coo! idge at the White House. On his return to the capitol Mr. Snell went into conference with Speaker Gillette, Representativ Longworth, the Republican lead members of the Republican steering committee, and several members of the House agricultural committee, among them Chairman Haugen. At the close of this conference was anticipated that the McNary Haugen bill would be brought to a vote with an adequate time altotted for debate, It was insisted that there been no indication as to the Pres- ident's view on the proposal, but Republigan leaders in the House have heretofore declared that before right of way was given to the Mc- Nary-Haugen bill some assurance should be obtained from the White House that the measure would not be vetoed, Present plans of supporters of the bill, which calls for creation of a corporation with capital of $200,000,- 000, to sell surplus farm products abroad are for the House to ‘con- sider the measure before it is taken up in the Senate. Members of the nate farm bloc have been insist- ing, however, that the proposal be brought to a vote there without de- it had 3 SENTENCED FOR BREWING Fergus Falls, Minn., May 10¢— Mathias Pitzel, Norbet J.
