Flouse feaders sought to defer the Aght at least until after the rewriting of the bill by the confertes gets under way, but Wether negotiations to that end which were opéned with the “insurgents” would be successful remained to be dectdad. It the negotiations started today term- inate without an agreement, the ta- Jority leaders plan to bring in a rule to force the bill to conference without Instructions to the managers. In that event the republican “insurgents” and the democrats are prepared to_make a fight on the rule.g Losing in that, they say they stifi wut be in.a position to renéw the fight when the house agers ask for instructions. Housé leaders are undérstood to be ready to accépt a compromise on the sur- tax rate at an increase of approximately eight per cent ober the 32 per cent. mamimum fixed in the bill as it passed the house. Majority Jeaders in the sen- ate also look forward to a i g s g $§.240.730.000 a4 compared _with 3. 450,000,000 under existing law.: that foi $2.717,280:00( thé next fiscal year at and that for the calendar year 1923 af $2,726,280,000. A statement prepared by the expertt and made public by Senator Penrost said that the technical and administra. tive improvements in the bill were “quite as important as the reductions in specific taxes.” RED CROSS ROLL CALL STARTS ARMISTICE DAY Beginning on Armistice Day, Nov. 11, Nov. 24, the Norwich Red Cross will hold its annual membership roll call, by meags of which it proposed to recruit e old members and as many new ones as possible.

Hamiin of PBrookiine, whose co-operation with Attorney Gordon Ireland, former police probe counsel, created one of the big sen- gations of the probe, was made in Spring- field Monday by Miss Mary E. Driscoll, of Boston, Hamiin's “boss.” Jiss Dris- coll, who is head of the New England district of the United States rdepart mental bureau of Social hygnene, said that Hamlin worked in Springfield with- out _orders from her. Many complaints have reached Miss Driscoll anen s of Hamiin during the pol! e is trying te find out just what he did in Springfieid and by what authority he became in- volved in the famous Gus glokus case.

Dur! s trial in Norwich he stated Springfleld from Tampa, Fla., upon re- quest from Attorney Irel He later de- ciared that his part in the attempt to fifid liquor was in no way an effort to “frame” Capt. Frank Quilty of the detective bu- reau, as Mokus aMeged. It was done, h¢ said, in connection with his regular dutiet in suppressing vice. Miss Driscoll, after conference with | persons closely connected with Hamlin't { work in Springfield, returned to Boston | Monday afternoon. Her findings have not beén given out.

Hamiin also declar- ed that the money was riised by a group of “interested citizens.” Persons sup- posed to be concernéd in raising the money have denied any connection with the case.
