Adjournment Hurts Hi Mr. Sims' objection to the manmer in which his resolution was treated was based |on & pertiamentary sdvantage which was |taken of mim by the interjeetion of a mo- |tion to adjourn. Mr. Sime, when he called up his resolution, spoke at length urging its adoption. It wes supported by Meesrs. Jones of Virginta, Bartiett of Georgia, | Burleson of Texas and others. Representative Rainey of Illincis made a | polnt of order aguinst the resolution, de- | | claring that & was pot in order, in view of the fact that the democratic members of | the rules committee had not been chosen | by the caucue. Chairman Clayton sustained the point of order and Mr. Bims appeaied from the de- cision of the ohair. Following & statement by the chair that | the resolution could be called up after the election of the members of the committes, Mr. Sims withdrew his appeal. Just as soon as the vote on members for the rules com- mittee was announced, Representative {Johnson of Kentucky leaped to his feet in | advance of Mr. Sims and moved to sdjourn. { The motion was carried by a vote of £l to 8, leaving Mr. Sims with his undisposed of | resolution. All of the speeches were directed specif- | ically 1o the Sims resolution and at no time was there a word uttered in disparagement | of Mr. Fitzgerald for a place on the rules committee. Besides Representative Slayden, who re- selved sixty-nine votes, other members of the minority who recelved votes were. Hammond of Minnesota, 18; Hughes of | New Jersey, 8; Sulser of New York, §; Gar- rett of Tennessee, 3; Rainey of Tlinois, 4; and a large number who received one and | two votes each.

Gale and ‘Scott, then put their heads together and by a combined effort knocked out of the bill the masseur with his $1,800 salary. One ‘other important matter received at- tention while the bill was under consider- ation, but it did not arouse the discussion that was caused by the masseur. This was the subject of reports required from cor- porations under the corporation tax pro- |vision of the tariff law. Aocording to the terms of the bill these reports will not be made public except in special cases. The senate adopted the committee amendment to the effect that the reports shall only be made public under the order of the president when he deems it for the public interest. The bill makes an appropriation of $160.- 000 to cover the expense of collecting the tax. Under the tariff law the reports made by corporations would have to be made public and the Treasury department es- timated that $500000 would be needed for this purpose.
