This arrangement is a compromise between the House bill, which placed the radio problem under the Com- merce Secretary, and the Senate measure, which would have placed it entirely in the hands of a separate commission. Although the conferees have not signed a formal agreement, spokes- . men for them outlined this tentative settlement following yesterday's meet- ing, and expressed the hope that it would be definitely accepted. The conferees will meet again Wednesday. Five Members on Commission. Under the tentative agreement the commission would be composed of five members, appointed by the Presi- dent, subject to confirmation by the Senate, for terms of six years, one from each of the five zones created by the legislation. The commission would be given original jurisdiction over the grant- ing, renewal and revocaton of alll sta- tion licenses and the making of all regulations for a period of one year. Thereafter the commission woulld de- cide only controversial matters trans- ferred to it by the Secretary of Com- merce and cases referred to it by the Secretary and all appeals from deci- sions. Its decision would be final, subject to court appeals. The Secretary of Commerce would be given all administrative functions and full control over operators and the issuance of their licenses. The Secretary would have original juris dicton a and renewing of station licenses con- cerning which there is no contro- versy. Will Get $10,000 a Year. For the first year the members of the comm n would receive $£10,000 each, and ‘thereafter they would be paid on a per diem basis of $30 a day. The fective immediately upon its approv- al, but present, holders of licenses would not be subject to the penalties prescribed for failure to be licensed under the new law until after the ex- piration of 60 days. If, as now seems apparent, the con- ferces report an agreement to the Senate and House within a few days the chances will be bright for final enactment of the legislation at this session. Because of the rapid growth of ra- dio broadcasting in the past few years, the pending legislation has been looked upon as one of the im- portant questions awaiting the atten-{ tion of the present short session. For | two weeks Representative | the past White, author of the House bill, and Senator Dill, sponsor for the Senate measure, have been busily engaged in trying to ut the differences between the two.bills. The tentative sgreement, i finally approved by the conferees this week, willl have to be ratifed by both branches of Con- gress. Income Tax Problems Simplified for All No: 7. All net income up to $5,000, whether actually earned or not, is considered earned net income for the purpose of computing the 25 per cent credit on such income. Hundreds of returns are received showing net income in excess of $5,000, part of which was earned income—from salary, wages, profes- » slonal fees, etc.—and part of which ‘¥as not earned. Following is an ex- ample of how to compute correctly the tax due on such a return: A taxpayer, married and with no de- pendents, received in 1926 a salary of $4,000 and from a real-estate trans: tion made a net profit of $4,000. His personal exemption is $3,500. The tax Tate is 1% per cent on the first $4,000, 1n excess of such exemption, and 3 per . $8,000 ess personal exemption...... 3,500 Balance, taxable income. 4,500 1% per cent on first $4,000... 60 l'per cent on the remaining Total tax g But of the $8,000 net income $5,006 18 considered as earned net income, From $5,000, therefore, is deducted the personal exemption of $3,500, the tax on the remaining $1500, at 11, per cent, amounting to $22.50. Deduct one fourth of $22.50, or $5.63, from $75, leaving payable a tax of $69.37. ECIAL NOTICES.

Preparation for war involves too many ideas that are economic, social, cul- tural to be denounced wholesale by pacifists who talk about war as if they knew what it was and knew how to avoid it. It is a duty to avoid war whenever possible, but it takes the highest genius as well as the highest character to do that. Men Essential Factor. “Every people that lis fit to 1 must prepare itself to defend its exi ence,” the Duce continued. “The spirit is more important in that respect than the mechanical means “You do not think that it is pe ble in the twentieth century to d a people by restricting the tools of war?” I interjected. “If so, the mak- ers of the peace treaty of Vers were sadly mistaken when they tempted to disarm German Mussolini smiled. “You cannot,” he replied, “disarm a people unless you destroy its manhood. The war misled some into the belief that machines are more important than men. “Society, government, social systems exist not for the production of mate- rial things as an end. The end is the production of men and women in the highest state of efficiency and well governments, all rulers come conclusion in the end. I thought when, not long ago, I read the intensely interesting memoirs of Gal- lieni. He was, you know, military gov ernor of Paris in the early days of the World War. i othing can be conceived more stirring than the pages Gallieni de- votes to_an account of the crisis in Paris. The city was an intrenched camp. The territorial militia, the only force available with all the others on the firing line, was absolutely unarmed in the face of the approaching Uhlans. Machines Secondary. “Although Paris had become an in trenched camp, there were no weap- ons to hand out. There were no shells, there were no bayonets, there were no guns of any caliber. There was noth- ing to signal with. The mobilization had stripped the arsenals and the magazines. ““They were terrible days for France, those in which, from ‘the 26th of Au- gust until the 6th of September, the plans of the German general staff were in full development. The Ger- mans had crossed Belgium and were turning upon Paris. The Germans had reached the edge of the forest of Compiegne, “One might infer from the record of those days that there could be no such thing as enough weapons and enough ammunition. The same idea s at one time in the mind of the German general Ludendorff. He de- spaired of victory until, at the second battle of the Somme, he happened to look toward the hills and he saw the prospect made pleasing by quantities of tanks.” Mussolini’'s words rang out reso- nantly. He evidently envisaged the scene he described. “So far,” he continued, “the facts seem to suggest that machines and weapons are more important than men. In due time, the discovery is made that men are more important than machines.

In past ages, when men went from one country to another, they were impressed by the differences they discovered. Today, they are aston- ished by the points of resemblance be- tween countries sometimes very re- mote from one another. Folklore Being Obliterated. “The folklore of the races is being obliterated because capitalism, as it is called, tends to make the life of the whole world uniform. There is a gen- eral leveling.

Liberty changes its form as time changes the face upon civilization. What is liberty in time of peace is not liberty in time of war. There is a liberty in good times when all things can be gained easily, but this is not the same as the liberty enjoved in hard times. “Liberty is even at times a struggle between the individual and the state, between the state that | seeks to centralize and the individual who seeks to remaln unhampered by autnority Liberty Not Foe of Discipline. _ “For the individual, left to himself, is one who, unless he be a saint or | a hero, will pay no taxes, will obey no laws, will enlist in no war.

Will it make the fate of our average man less hard?” New Kind of Poetry. “It will,”” Mussolini replied. “More- over. the statement that times are hard may only indicate an increase In the scale of our wants. There may be greater prosperity than ever before in the world’s history nentral- ized by the rise in the standard of living. “The standard of living may be the unsuspected cause of hard times. To maintain the twentieth century family standard of living, it may be necessary for husband and wife both to labor. In the morning he may leave the home early to go to the factory. She may leave the home Just as early to go to the office. t;fom: tg?ople i complain that this state of ngs is taking the out of life, e e ‘Never!” “There is simply a new kind of poetry.

Maas last night shot Frank Davis, 32, through the shoulder. In falling, Davis frac tured his jaw. Davis had been caught with marked money after he sold Maas and Robert McNaught, another agent, two bottles of what purported to be Scotch whisky. Thought Life Endangered. g agent's life in danger, that is another matter,” said Mr. Yellow “But that is the only ex cuse which will be accepted in this office. Maas maintained that he thought his life was in jeopardy when he fired, and that the bullet which struck Davis was fired downward to frighten the prisoner, but it glanced from the sidewalk. Maas said that Davis ran toward him with his hand in his pocket. Davis was struck in the back. Patrick Roche, special intelligence agent of the Internal Revenue Bureau, was assigned to investigate Davis’ alleged criminal activities. Yellowley was informed that Davis was known to the police as a ‘“dope” peddler. “Refused to Halt.” According to Agent McNaught, Maas made an engagement to meet Davis and receive the liquor. The agents recelved the liquor and in- formed Davis he was under arrest. Davis got permision to go inside for his coat and hat, acording to Mc- Naught, returned to the sidewalk and assured the officers that they need not call a patrol wagon. Suddenly, said McNaught, Davis ran. He refused to heed an order to halt, and Maas fired. WAIVE BANDITRY CHARGE. Four Men Suspected of Terrorizing Citizens Are in Arrest. Archie R. Benson, Maurice J.
