Failing in This, Bacharach Would Boost Exemption $500 MEN GEITTING UNDER $4,000 Commiitee Already Tentatively Agrees to Allow $200 More Exemption For Each Dependent of Heads of Fam- - ilies. Washington, Aug. 12.—Further de- lay in revision of the tax law was looked for today because of reason of conferences of republican mem.- bers of the House ways and means committee and the senate finance committee regarding the American valuation provisions of the Fordney tariff measure. May Change Exemption. Many changes in the bill remain to be decided upon. Representative Bacharach of New Jersey plans to renew his effort to lower the income taxes paid by single and married men having annual net incomes of $4,000 or less. Mr. Bachardch said he pre- ferred that the rate on such incomes should be reduced from four to three per cent., but indicated that if this proposal failed an attempt would be made to increase the exemption by $500. The committee already has agreed tentatively to increase the ex- emptions to heads of familles having dependents by $200 for each depen- dent. Back Tax Settlements. Administrative features of the new bill understood to have been agreed upon include a provision designed- to simplify the process of settlement of back tax claims. The time of settle- ment would be limited to three years instead of five except that additional time might be granted by the secre- tary of the treasury. Simpler Tax Return Form. Agreement also was said to have been reached to glve the secretary authority to call in representatives of taxpayers in an effort to simplify the present tax return forms. These forms are now drawn by treasury experts and it was said that committee mem- bers felt -that if these officers had the benefit of the advice of tax pay- ers familiar with the sybject, the forms could be jmproved. = New Candy Tax Pmposed The committee has yet to on the proposal to substitute a uat- ed manufacturers tax on candy ac- cording to cost in place of the recent flat tax of five per cent.

(At the time the letter was received, Mayor. Curtis. asked Charity Superin- tendent William Cowlishaw to/have the boy deported as soon as possible. Ar- rangements were made to send him with the first crowd going back. The party which sailéd from New York this morning included him, originally, when leaving New Britain, but before arriving in Hartford his place had been taken by another. It was discovered upon starting that the boy had lost his passports. It was useless to try and send him without any, so he returned to his boarding house, where he discovered the missing papers in a trunk.® Over- joyed, he rushed back to the truck with his papers, only to find that someone else had been selected in his place. Attbrney E. Rogers Jones, and Inspector Clementino, who were pre- sent, stated that it was impossible to get more than the original 25 on the boat, so the boy will have to wait for the next group to be deported.

Riga, Aug. 12. — (By Associated Press) —The Russian soviet govern- ment will combat any attempt to in- terject political questions into the Russian famine relief, but it is suffi- clently practical to see that it the holding of Americans in prison is an obstacle to the feeding of a millién Russian children, it 1s best that Her- bert Hoover’s stipulation in this re- spect be grafted, deciared Maxim Lit- vinoff, the~soviet special envoy here tonight.

He reviewed the famine situation to them and explain- ed conditions from tne Ruulnn view- point. Will Use Al Means. In addition to those held in prison in Russia, declared the soviet envoy, every tacility to leave would be given by the soviet government to any Americans in the country even to the extent of advertising for them in the newspapers. Obviously the govern- ment could not undertake to lpcate them all however, he added, as even the list the American government had prepared was probably inaccurate, and in many cases the names bore no addresses. Speed Up Work. M. Litvinoff stated that- British, French and other subjects whose re- patriation had been arranged long ago, were still appearing now and then asking for passports to leave Russia. He added that if the United States insisted on the delivery ot all the Americans on the list handed him the Russian famine probably would (Continued on Séventeenth Page.)

The discovery, Wylie sald, was made near a point where the divers em- ployed by Dist. Attorney Woolwine had been searching for the missing weapon. The district attorney select- ed this point because the mileage registered on the speedometer of an automobile alleged to have been rent- ed Friday by Arthur C. Burch, in- dicted for the alleged murder, showed the car travelled - just far enough to reach it.

The Morrison flashlight highway crossing signal, operating day and night, was placed in service at the ‘Wooster street railroad crossing. Upon the approach of a train these signals flash every two seconds a high-powered electric red light, in both directions on the highway, and continue to ‘flash until the train has passed over the crossing. These signals are attached to the standard highway crossing signs, lo- cated on both sides of the railroad crossing, and consist of a disc 24 inches in diameter. In the center of this disc is an eight-inch red glass through which shines a flashing light giving a beam of 6,000 candle power. This light is so intense that it can be seen a considerable distance in bright sunlight. - Surrounding this red light and on the face of the disc are the words “When red stop” so arranged that they are illuminated at night. The mechanism of these signals is as near perfect as human ingenuity can make it. An expérience of years with the same apparatus in signals governing train movements on the principal railroads show that failures are almost unknown. These crossing signals are in ser- vice day and night, while at m: crossings flagmen are only employed during busy hours. Further, regard- less of how faithful a crossing flag- man is, his crosging disc, white flag, or lamp. cannot be seen nearly as tar as the Morrison signal, and under no conditions can he attract attention as surely as the high-powered light flash- ing red along and across the hi m every two seconds when a train proaching the ¢rossing. ‘When this signal is flashing red light it jndcates approach of a train and travelers on highway must stop before passing signal and wait unti] passage of the train overicrossing. If passes over crossing, it indicates ap- otier PLASTERED ON. TWO Oklahoma Gang Duymps Ypung Clerk, Thus Decorated, into' Street— Minister Also Abused. El Reno, Okla., Aug. 12.—Masked men took L. P.
