A the woman who concerns herself with curls ruffles dimples and fancy clothes and the extern of life is not the one who betters the conditions under which women must live. Selfish Tojio to Long As women think Only Femi nity is necessary to gain their ends they will get Only what men Are willing to give them for they want everything for themselves As a tribute to their charms.

Assurance was Given supporters of the measure that it would be taken j ent time. Senator Norbeck of South Dakota is occupying a strategic position and has the administration forces tied up in a Bow knot by j insisting upon the Jia Ugen Mcnary i Bill or nothing. Administration sen a at ors Are gently suggesting to or. Norbeck there might be something just As Good but the senator replies that he is afraid of the a a something just As Good idea and wants the real things. Accordingly administration doctors like senator Watson of Indiana Smoot of Utah Spencer of Missouri Lodge of Massachusetts and other a dirt Farmers Are trying to work out some form of farm Relief which the easterners May accept and which i will be satisfactory to the Farmers. Senator Smith of South Caroline. Democrat has a Bill of his own which provides for warehousing on a Large scale. It provides that Farmers May Market their Grain or May store it in warehouses getting negotiable Ware House receipts at rates no higher than those charged by the Banks of the Federal Reserve system.

She realized the value of co opera Tion an organized a band of German policewomen who Are extending her work there. A a policewoman must above All be an educated broadminded fair woman a a she says. Whether she can handle a gun or not is immaterial though she says As the effective Date. The Only other important Chan made in the conference report was removal of the requirement that a1 Ion seamen entering ports of the United states must have Landing cards identifying them.

Increased traffic in the tunnels As a consequence of a strike of 3,200 Street car Motorman and conductors caused the tubes to become choked with gases. First Aid Crews of the United states Bureau of mines and the City fire department were rushed to the scene. When the Rescue men reached the tubes they donned oxygen helmets and went in. The tunnels were closed to All traffic and soon the rescuers were Busy carrying out men and women who had collapsed. They were Given first Aid treatment and a number reported in a serious condition were sent to hospitals. The tunnels form the main Gateway into the City from five thickly populated suburbs. With the Street cars tied up the tubes were crowded to capacity this morning hundreds of motorists using this Inlet to Pittsburgh from beyond the South Hills shortly after 9 a. In.

More than 500 out of town men Are available to Man the cars it was said and others will be brought in later. The rules committee if it was supported by verbal Assurance from some a polity Leader. The farm bloc was not Content with the agreement reached this week by a Republican conference a a that some Relief measure would be considered it was indicated but wanted the prom ise made a part of the printed record. Later senator Norbeck informed the Senate he had decided to withhold his proposed motion to Force a vote on the Mcnary Haugen Bill As a rider to the Revenue Bill. Needs Only Coolidge help the senator said the Relief Bill probably would pass the House and the Senate and certainly would become a Law of it got a Little boost from the White House. His decision to with hold the motion he said was reached after he had Ben informed of the decision of the House rules committee and after conferences with representatives and a delegation of Farmers from the Northwest Here to support the measure. He had Ben assured by Senate leaders senator Norbeck said that the Bill would be Given consideration As soon As it reaches the Senate probably in seven or eight Days. Ile added that another reason for withholding the move was because a number of senators favouring the tax Bill had said they would not vote for it with the farm Bill rider although they would vote for the farm Bill As a separate measure. Saw Coolidge first announcement of the decision to give the Bill right of Way w As made after chairman Snell of the rules committee had discussed the legislative program with president Coolidge at the White House. On his return to the Capitol or. Snell went into conference with speaker Gillett representative Long Worth the Republican Leader members of the Republican stering com i Mittee and several members of the a House agricultural committee among i them chairman Haugen. At the close of this conference it j was announced that the Mcnary i Haugen Bill would be brought to a vote with adequate time allotted for debate. It was insisted that there had been no indication As to the president s views on the proposal hut Republican leaders in the House heretofore have declared that before right or Way was Given to the Mcnary Haugen Bill some Assurance should be obtained from the White House that the measure would not he vetoed. Present plans of supporters of the Bill which Calls for creation of a Cor Tion of $200,000,000 for the purpose of buying wheat or other farm products a to fixed Price the surplus to be sold abroad the Farmers to take Tho loss. Incidentally the Tariff system has also entered into the demand of the Western Farmers for remedial legislation. Senator Norbeck Points out that while the Eastern senators complain that the Haugen Mcnary Bill assumes to do away with the Law of Supply and demand they Are willing to have the Price of Eastern manufactures artificially stabilized As to Price by the operations of the Tariff. Accordingly the Farmer has to Deal with the Law of Supply and Deand he says with what he Sells but has to forgo its Beneficent in Flence when he buys anything manufactured in the East. What is Good for the Eastern Goose is considered Good for the Western Gander and the easterners Are Bing told frankly that they Are Likely not Only to lose the Mellon tax rates through a combination of West and South but Are Likely to have the Tariff demolished by the same sort of combination. Episcopalians vote to seize wealth in War Aberdeen s. A. May in the business session of the South Dakota convocation of the episcopal Church Here today a spirited debate was precipitated upon a Resolution difficulties vet presented a president c. W. Pugsley of South Dakota state College Brookings. S. D., in an exclusive statement to the evening Republican takes Issue squarely with or. W. M. Jardine president of Kanas agricultural College who spoke in opposition to Tho Bill before the National chamber of com Merce at Cleveland last wednesday. Prior to his appointment last year As president of South Dakotas agricultural College or. Pugsley was first assistant Secretary of agriculture. Tho Mcnary Haugen Bill proposes that the government Rake Over the entire exportable surplus of principal farm commodities that Tho Domestic prices protected b tariffs on imports be fixed at Tho same ratio to Tho average prices of other commodities As existed in Tho ten years from 1905 to 1914 that the government sell the surplus at whatever prices Are obtainable and that the difference Between these and Domestic prices be charged Back to the Farmers reducing by this extent the final prices received by them and that script be issued for a portion of the Sale prices pending final determination of them for the year. President Pugsley a statement wired to the Republican follows would restore balance a the aim of the Mcnary Bill a just one namely that of restoring a More Normal and fair relationship Between the Price of agricultural products and those of other commodities. Farm product prices on the one hand and factory and labor prices on the other have been thrown out of balance because of government activities which stimulated overproduction in agriculture and because of government and group action which raised the prices of labor and labor products. It seems As is pledging support of Tho Bill Intro los it iria fion favouring activities other than agriculture should be repealed. A step highly Duce a by congressman Royal Johnson for conscription of wealth in Case of War. Opposition to it developed declaring its wording to be political in its nature and upon reference Back to the resolutions committee it came out and was adopted in the following form. A whereas a policy of conscription of life was adopted in the last War be it a resolved that in Case our nation is Ever forced into another War this policy should be extended to include All the resources of the a Resolution for world peace reported out of the committee withstood efforts to Amend it to a Flat declaration against All War by omit desirable and greatly to be preferred but apparently Imposable or that legislation effectively helpful to agriculture should be passed. A the Mcnary Haugen Bill is the Best government remedy for these agricultural difficulties yet presented. It is generally conceded that the ten year period from 1905 to 1914. Was Tho Best balanced ten year period in our recent history and that period is used As the basis of the proposed readjustment. The Bill provides that the administration expenses shall be paid by the Farmers and not by the government.

Townsan 509 South Duff Street says a i think Republican want ads Are simply wonderful. We had More Strawberry plants than we wanted this year so we decided to sell the surplus. We sold what we could by Telephone then it occurred to me to try a Republican want and. I was astonished by the orders that came rolling in by mail from All around Mitchell from a 30 cent want and we sold All of our plants for a total of $12.00, and could have sold a lot More if we had had them that the steering committee of the House agree to Ake up the Mcnary Haugen Bill at once. There was a series of conferences resulting in an offer from the steering committee to take up some form of farm Relief legislation but it refused to agree to consider the Hau Gen Mcnary Bill. Senator Norbeck said this would not do and stood Pat it is acknowledged that if the Mcnary Bill is considered As a rider to the Revenue Bill it will be Defeated. But senator Norbeck proposes to put the senators on record his decision today will depend largely upon the action of the House Yules committee which will meet this Forenoon. Senator Norbeck took the floor yesterday and urged upon Congress and the Republican leadership the Imper alive necessity of acting on farm Relief legislation and particularly urged passage of the Mcnary Bill As Best Likely to accomplish this. He said opposition to it came from Millers and packers and Eastern business influences.

I can see no threat to our entire musings Structure which includes Agri culture. In fact. It seems to me that the effect will be to strengthen the whole Structure. It is certainly sadly in need of repair. Its troubles can be traced directly to agricultural troubles Whlon the Bill is designed to Correct. A i cannot understand How the script proposal by the Bill could mean Flat Money for it is not guaranteed by the government and has Only an in certain a and undetermined value. It would undoubtedly be used to some extent for securing Loans or for spec Ketive Sale but if this is a detriment the evil could be stopped by making the script nontransferable. The act would probably result in the government handling the larger part of the exports in the commodities actively coming under the Bill but i do not see that this can do any harm. To certainly could not result in the government becoming the sole dealer in Domestic markets. It is True that there would doubtless be a slowing Down of needed agricultural readjustments but there w Ould not be a stoppage of them. A assuming and believing that the administration of the Bill would be effective and efficient. I am in a or of a trial. I w Ould prefer to see special favors to others repealed but that seems impossible now. I would also prefer to see Strong local Nad National agricultural cooperative organizations but those cannot be Brot into operation rapidly enough to take care of the present difficulties. The Mcnary Haugen Bill need not retard the advancement of the cooperative movement. In fact it would probably save enough Farmers from bankruptcy to hasten the ultimate Success of the vote on final passage of the Bill was 69 to 15. It provides for a 25 per cent Cut in income taxes payable this year and permanent revision downward of practically every Federal tax. The democratic proposals for reduction in the income schedule modification of the corporation tax and full publicity of tax returns constitute salient provisions of the measure. These and other changes made in the Bill As passed by the House must now be taken to a conference Between members of the House and Senate. Without a record vote Tho Senate adopted just before the final roil cull an amendment by senator Simmons. Democrat. Northc Arolina increasing from $2,000 to $,500 Tho exemptions for Heads of families with incomes of $5,000 and Over. Heads of families with incomes of less than $5,000 now have such an exemption. In the closing hours of the discussion a third and final vote on Secretary Mellen proposal to limit at reductions on incomes derived from it exempt securities resulted in elimination of Hie provision 45 to 35. Denounced by republicans. As the final Roll Call approached a plan to attach the Mcnary Haugen farm Relief Bill to the Revenue measure As a rider collapsed after Republican leaders had promised to give the farm Bill precedence on the legislative program As told in other dispatches today. Toward the end. Republican administration spokesmen took the floor and emphatically denied responsibility for the measure As it now stands. They described it a was bearing no resemblance whatever to the scientific plan of the Secretary of the Treasury As tending to increase rather than decrease the errors and iniquities swept together for the Twenty nine republicans and to o Farmer labor senators voted with a solid democratic lineup for the Bill. Senators voting against the Bill included Norbeck Republican South Dakota. Republicans voting for the Bill included senator Sterling South Dakota. Ith Lac Lotos against it the Republican Leader. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts explaining on the floor his vote against the measure enumerated the features which led him to conclude that it was a a bad it destroyed the Mellon rates he said made great additions to corporation taxes introduced provisions for publicity which would paralyse business throughout the country if carried to the extent to w hich it can be carried and Cut off taxes which should have been kept on. The effect of the Bill senator Lodge declared would be to put the Revenue of the government so for below expenditures that it would Lead inevitably in his opinion to the necessity for Loans in the coming year.
