Supporters of the concurrent reso- lution authorizing a joint committee of Congress to receive bids for the private operation of Muscle Shoals gained a point yesterday when efforts of opponents to have the resolution ruled out of order failed.

The Vice President overruled the puint and Senator Norris appealed from the decision of the chair, Senator Fess of Ohto then moved that the appeal from the decision be 1aid on the table. On & roll call the Senate voted. 55 to 15, to lay the ap neal on the table, which had the ef fect of sustaining the chair.

By the Associated Press. The general prosperity of the South was singularly reflected in the passage by the National House of Representa- tives yesterday of bills autborizing the construction of 26 bridges in five Southern States. Expenditure by the United States of $2,000,000 to improve by Maj. Gen. Harry Taylor, chief of engineers, U. S. A. Alabama came off with the lion's share of bridges t yes lation, that State drawing 16 of the 25. Louisiana came next with four, Virginia followed with two and Arkansas, Mississippl and Tennessee were awarded one each. This legislation was regarded here as indicative of the Federal Govern ment's response to the South's de- mand for quicker mail service in the rural districts and a greater opening of avenues to markets by the farmers, No estimate of the cost involved in the construction of these bridges was obtainable today, but it was well assured that ft would run well into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Students of economics pointed out, however, the real value was not to he computed in terms of dollars and cents, but rather In the general de- velopment of the reglons that these bridges would serve.

Feb. 26, as First Step. By the Assoclated Press. With the time within which the pub- lic must file its tax returns rapidly expiring, Treasury Department ex- perts are speeding up the drafting of regulations to gulde taxpayers. As the first step, the new revenue law is declared effective as of 10:25 a.m. February 26, when President Coolidge signed the measure. The changed inheritance tax rates also are effective as of that hour, as are many other repealed or modified taxes, while the income tax provisions are appli- cable to incomes of last year, on which payments will be made this year. Reductlon of the automobile passen- ger tax from 5 to 3 per cent will be- come effective at midnight March 28, along with the increased exemptions on admissions, which thereafter will include tickets of 75 cents and less. On that date, also, repeal of the stamp taxes on deeds of conveyances and custom warehouse entries and withdrawals will go into effect. Repeal of the taxes on capital stock, tobacco manufacturers, brokers, bowl- ing alleys, billiard rooms, shooting gallerfes, riding academles and auto- mobiles for hire will become effective June 30. The new act leaves room for a more sclentific tax measure, but still prom- ises a material contribution to eco- nomic advancement, in the opinion of John W. O'Leary, president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. In a statement, he expressed regret at the ‘very undesirable in- crease in the corporation income tax, s well as the failure to eliminate the estate tax.” Mr. O'Leary warned that unless the corporation tax is reduced “until it ac- cords more nearly with the normal tax on individuals,” which he placed at a maximum of 5 per cent, “the regretta- ble effects of the high rate will con- tinue to be felt in the cost of living.” Business men and their organizations, he sald, might well take advantage of the opportunity to recount “the in- equities and needless disabilities now imposed upon business by our revenue measures and their administration” before the commission authorized un- der the new revenue law to study the tax system. — CHARGES NON-SUPPORT.
