THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, CONGRESS BEGINS - JDDAY RECESS| Senate Sets Aside Anti-Beer t Bill, Which Means Long - 4 Delay in Passage. Senators and representatives gen- erally left Washington today for a vacation as a result of Congress de- claring a thirty-day recess just be- fore midnight last night. Some will remain, however, to continue commit- tee work, particularly in the case of the Senate finance committee, which expects to continue study of the per- manent tariff bill and to take up the tax revision measure. Both the Senate and House will re. convene September 21, but the latter expects to take three-day recesses un- 1il October 8.

The practice of fixing wages solely on a basis of the cost of living is a violation of sound eco- nomic theory and is utterly without }(uigilc or scientific support of any nd. We reckon a feller ought t’ Human Beings Classified. “What we find as a result of prac- tice so far as it has gone is that there is a constant tendency under it to classify human beings and to stand- ardize classes, each class having a presumptive right to a given quantity of various commodities. It is not dif- ficult to understand that the ultimate development of such a policy must be ridiculous and fantastic: in fact, it already has become So in many cases.” The report said that under the pres- ent system of industrial management it had been found almost impossible to find a method of Wage measure- ments “relating standards of llving t social usefulness or production service.’ “There are but two avenues leading to permanent higher standards living for our people as a whole.” added the report. “One'of these is the elimination of waste, efther ig -the form of management or of undue ex- ploitation and profiteering.

He was accompa- nied by Mrs. Harding., who occupied a seat in the Senate gallery and was an interested spectator of the hectic de- bate on the beer bill. The House for the most part marked time, 8s it_had énly to complete ac- tion on conference reports.

Maj. D. I Sultan, representing the War Department, expressed the hope that the move to encourage and standardize athletics in Washington ! would prosper, as Army officials ds sired to foster all sorts of physical training enterprises for the develop- ment of the manhood of the country. Mr. Gude predicted success in the undertaking, and promised to lend his support at all times. MAN REPORTED MISSING.

Commenting on specific legislation assed by the House. the republican eader declared that the Fordney tar- “which_will take from the statute books the makeshift Under- wood tariff law, that would have wrecked industry and the protective uctivities of the country but for the European war, will festore and re-es- tablish in America to the bemefit of every section of our country the equitable and beneficent principles of @ republican protective tarifr.
