Garner of Texas Believes Congress Will Materially Boost Total Cut Washington, Nov. 23—(7)— Agreement by the house ways and means committee on a total tax cut of $235,820,000 found interest at! the capitol today centered on tl treatment the committee’s program would receive on the floors of the house and senate. , While the committee itself con- tinued to consider administrative features of the prospective revenue act, members at both ends of the capitol were discussing the proposed revision in rates and whether or not. a determined fight will be made after congress convenes to . revise the committee’s reduction plan. Garner Forecasts Opposition Among those forecasting stiff op- position to the committee’s program was Representative Garner of Tex- as, ranking minority member of the ‘ways and means committee and one of the Democratic spokesmen on tax reduction in congress. Tmmediately after a majority of the wayssand means committee late yesterday had approved the roposed reduction of approximate- 236,000,000, the Texan predicted the total ‘reduction would come nearer $825,000,000 before the bill reached the White House. » Committee Action Final The action of the committee yes- terday in discussion of all major issue3 entering into the question of tax reduction paved the way for a discussion of minor matters. It is the hope of Chairman Greeh that the tentative program for revision of the revenue rate will be drafted into bill form by the week-end. The chairman has indicated that he regards the decisions arrived at on the major questions as final, so far as the committee is concerned, and that no material attempt will be made between now and the re- porting of the bill to the house to change to program.

RAILBOARD | SPLITS COST i Commission Settles Dispute Between Power ‘Company and Telephone Company — if Failure of the Otto Tail Power company and the Sheyenne Tele- pl ere ee agree on a set- tlement of their. differences regard- ing the cost of correcting “inter- ference” created in telephone wires by nearby power lines resulted in a decision by the state railroad board which “splits the difference” between the two concerns. The case resulted from construc- tion by the power company of a power line which paralleled a tele- phone line already in use. To ac- commodate the power company the telephone company ag not to object to the location of the power plant line. The power company, its turn, agreed to correct any inter- ference which might develop on the telephone line by making the lines “metallic” or moving them to an-| other location. Fail to Sp hes When the er line was built and energized the two companies; failed to agree on ‘a method of re- moving the “interference” which immediately developed to such an extent that the telephone lines were practically useless. The power com- pany wanted to install me- chanical devices to correct the situation. The telephone company wanted the power vey (re to build Yor it a new telephone line. Finally the telephone company built its own line and attempted to charge the cost t. the power company. A specia’ committee, appointed by telehone and power interests to adjust all such disputes, Worked on} the case but failed to bring about a settlement and the case was pre- sented to the railroad board which awarded the telephone company a sum midway between the amount it claimed and the amount offered in settlement by the power company. In most cases, board members said, the possibility of er lines setting up an inductive interference with telephone wires is eliminated by the commission’s rules which re- quire that its engineers approve t route and specifications of all new public utility construction, Regular meeting of the Knights of Columbus will be at 3:00 P.
