Mr. Balfour and Baron Kato sug- gested that the day’s developments seem- ed to indicate that any limitation of land mament would be difficult to establish, and although the subject was referred to a committee of the whole for future con- sideration, there was apparently no. in- clination to hasten the discussion of de- tails.

Washington, Nov. 21.—By a vote of 232 to 109, the house today approved the tax revision bill as rewritten in confer- ence. The measure immediately was sent to the senate, where it will be taken up tomorrow with republican leaders de- termined upon its final enactment in time for the ending of the special session of congress Wednesday night. Before adopting the conference report on the bill the house defeated 202 to 141, a motion from the democratic side to send the measure back to conference with instructions to the house managers to accept the senate amendment increas- ing the inheritance taxes. Forty republi- cans voted for the motion while four democrats voted against it. Only eleven republicans holted on the final vote, while six democrats voted for passage. The republicans opposing the bill were Bec, Browne, Lamp M. Nelson and Voigt, all of Wisconsin; James ang Woodruff, Michigan ; Michael- son, Tllinols; Rvan, New York: Sinclalr, North Dakota, and Kellar, Minnesota. The six democrats were Campbell, of Pennsylvania; Lee, California, and Du- pre, Favrot, Lazaro and Martin, all of Loulsiana. In the four hours' debate which pre- ceded the voting, Chairman Fordney, of the house managers, said the measure in ts present form would vield a total rev- enue this this fiscal vear of $3,215,000, 000, or $45,000,000 less than the amount the treasury department had estimated would he needed. He thought this de- further econ- various federal depart- omies ments, Representative Mondell, by the of Wyoming, the republican leader, told the house that best estimates Were that the bill would reduce taxes hy $70,000,000 this calen- dar vear and by $835,000,000 in the next calendar vear. He praised the bill as “a splendid measure” except that it di not reduce the maximum sur-tax rate sufficiently. Representative Garner, of Texas, rank- ing democratic member of the ways and means committes, who made the princi- pal attack on the bill from the minority side, declared that at the present rate of federal expenditures the measure would not ralse the reanired amount of ! revenut by from $600,000,000 to $700,- 000,000 a vear. He declared the meas- ure was “a monstrosity” addinz that a prominent republican semator had an- nounced that it would have to be re- written within a year. “It represents statesmanship gone to seed,” he sald.

The crush of peopie to gain admisston today was s0 great that many women falnted. Two women hurled themselves against the bavonets of soldiers keeping guard at the court room door and ome of them was severely wounded. DIRECTORS OF L R. T.
