WASHINGTON. Pee. 2. The
House Wsys and Means commit
tee derided today to make the re
duction it has voted In passenger
auto taxes effective 30 days after
enactment of the new revenue bill
and to provide for rebate to auto
dealers of the difference between
the old and new levies on all cars
in their hands at the end of this
period.
The committee rescinded Its pro
posal to allow a retroactive re
duction In the Inheritance taxes.
The provision was taken from
the tax reduction bill after the
treasury had estimated It would
mean a loss of $70,000,000 in
revenue, rather than 120.000. 000
as originally estimated.
The committees decision for
lower Inheritance rates In future
years remains unchanged.
The action on automobile taxes
was based on an agreement reach
ed between the committee and
Representatives of practically all
national automobile manufactur
ing concern, who pledged them
selves not to ask for repeal of the
tax on passenger automobile cars,
which has been cut from five to
three per cent.
The rebste in dealers was
sought because, when the law goes
Into effect, they will have on
hand a numbr of cars on which
the five per cent tsx will hsve
been paid.

NEW YORK. Dec. J. The Franco-American
expedition In the Sa
hara, beaded by Count Byron Kubn
de Prorok. has disinterred the skel
eton of a personage burled In the
tomb of Tim Hlnan, the legendary
goddess and ancestress of the Tu
nings, says a dispatch today to the
New York Times from Abalessa.
The bones of a well built person
about six feet In height, whose fine
features resemble those of present
day Tuareg nobles, were found
resting on an elaborate couch
sunk In solid rock, the dispatch
stated. This was surrounded by
bags of grain, grapes and dates,
food for the Journey Into the outer
world.
The scientists were unable to
determine whether the bones were
those of a man or woman, but the
natives were convinced they were
those of Tib Hlnan herself.
The skull had feminine charac
teristics, but the body bones were
lepparently of a masculine type. It
thought possible that the exne
idltlon has found the body of the
ancient heroine who Is the root and
i whole structure of Tuaregarian
I mythology.
The weapons nsuallv burled with
i persons of high rank were not
I found. Osrmenls of a dignitary
were found piled In an anteroom
I of the burial chamber. Beads,
garnets, and objects of gold and
silver were dug no In the mound
(covering the skeleton.
The beds, whlrh were similar to
those of the third and fourth cen
turies found In the teronle of Tanlt
at Carthage, gave the first clue to
ithe date of the tomb.
I Massive bracelets on the arms
'of the skeleton were believed to
hfi of gold snd silver alloved with
another metal, nrnbahly antimony,
which was used by the Carthagin
ians tn give gold snd silver Jewel
ry additional weight and hardness.
