MEASURE AS EXPENSIVE.
B
"WASHINGTON', T. C. June 20. The
senate started a race with the house
.today to outlaw medical beer. Just
after the house rules committee had
concluded a iong hearing on a pro
posal to give the Volstead anti-beer
and general prohibition tightening-up
measure right of way, Senator Willis,
republican. Ohio, introduced a special
,till containing the beer and other
incontroverted sections of the Vol
stead measure, with the hope of hav
ing it passed before the prohibition
commissioner promulgates medical
.laeer regulations.
In view of the statements by pro
hibition leaders before the house com
mittee that they were unwilling to
'redraft the Volstead supplemental bill
and their request that it be expedited
as emergency legislation, there was
much speculation as to whether the
Volstead or Willis measure could be
put through first.
Wine Also Hit.
The committee will decide later
whether the Volstead bill or any part
, of it shall get top place on the house
calendar.
i In introducing his bill. Senator Wil
lis said he was actuated by "the dis
cussion and delay concerning the bill
pending in the house." In addition to
prohibiting prescription of beer as
.medicine, tho measure would provide
that not more than the same amount
of alcohol in wine may be prescribed
within ten days than is now author
ized for spirituous liquors, which is
one-half pint.
' Other provisions would prohibit Is
suance of more than 100 prescrip
tions within 90 days to any physician
for the use of spirituous or vinous
liquors as medicine unless an emer
gency exists; would prevent the fur
ther manufacture and importation of
whisky or spirituous liquors, but not
alcohol, until the present supply is
reduced to a point where it would
meet the needs for non-beverage pur
poses, and would give the courts in
Hawaii and the Virgin islands juris
diction to enforce the prohibition act.
Beer Reifulationa Ready.
Senator Willis in a statement said
his bill embodied uncontroverted is
sues in the Volstead supplemental
prohibition bill now pending in the
house.
Informed of the introduction of the
Willis bill. Mr. Volstead said:
"If it is passed in the senate, I shall
be glad to do anything 1 can to pro
cure its prompt passage in the house.
That does not mean, however, I in
tend to abandon the other provisions
of the house bill, as I consider them
of vital importance and necessity un
der the circumstances."
If there should be a serious delay
In congress, it was indicated at the
treasury department today that early
consideration would be given to the
issuance of regulations providing use
of beer for medical purposes.
The regulations are ready, It was
added, and could be issued quickly
upon decision to promulgate them. J
Alleced Threats Draw Klre. i
'"Alleged threats by prohibition ad
vocates to seek the defeat of mem
bers of the house rules committee be
cause opponents of trie Volstead beer
bill were eranted a hearing, drew the
fire of Chairman Campbell at the
'committee's final session.
"I do not take kindly to direction
and criticism from men who make
'prohibition a business," he said, "and
who. it is said, have threatened to
defeat me."
"Representative Volstead and Wayne
B. Wheeler of the Anti-Saloon league
denied that they had been parties to
any such threats.
Chairman Doesn't Believe That
Body Should Be Defendant and .
Judge at Same Time.
WASHINGTON, D. C, June 20.
President Harding has approved a
suggestion of the shipping board that
settlement of approximately S30Q,(I00
000 in claims against the board be
placed in the hands of a board of
three arbitrators, to be appointed by
the president, it was announced today
Heretofore the shipping board has
acted as both defendant and Judge in
the matter of claims. Chairman Las
ker explained. Most of the claims
have resulted from cancellation of
contracts by the board, one being for
120.000, MO and others ranging from
J8.000.000 downward. Some were
plainly too high, he said, adding that
delayed settlement had caused them
to mount.
Members of the arbitration board
would consist of a lawyer, an auditor
and a technical man, all "of national
standing and reputation."
The agreement of the Hamburg
America line with the Harriman in
terests to reopen the trade routes for
merly controlled by Germany has met
the approval of the individual mem
bers of the board, Mr. Lasker an
nounced. However, no action on al
locating shipping board vessels to
the Harriman Interests has been
taken.

Taxation Officials Are Told
Governor That Local Bodies
Must Trim Closely.
OLYMPIA, Wash.. June 20. General
reduction in salaries of public em
ployes was favored here today by a
majority vote of those attending the
state-wide- conference of taxation
officials and others called by Gov
ernor Hart.
The conference was put on record
thus at the institgation of E. Shor
rock, president of the Seattle schoo:
board. Mr. Shorrock, addressing the
meeting, said that salaries con
stituted 75 to SO per cent of the cost
of municipal and school government.
He expressed the opinion that any
'effort to reduce taxes must affect
salaries. Carl E. Croson. also a
member of the Seattle school board,
opposed salary reductions.
Another resolution adopted at the
meeting recommended that wherever
possible, school building work be de
ferred indefinitely.
In opening the session. Governor
: Hart said the conferences would be
"worse than a failure if you have
not the courage to do things that
ought to be done, or if you feel that
a friend must be protected in some
expenditure in which he is partic
ularly interested."
' He added:
"If we can reduce the levj- and
wipe out a deficit of more than two
and a half millions in the state,
'surely you can find something to
- eliminate from your county, city o
school district budget.
"Certain charges are fixed, and
the only material reductions that can
be made are through your local tax

The president of the assembly was

WASHINGTON. D. C, June 20.
(Special.) There are strong signs
that President Harding shortly will
assert a leadership of eongress to an
extent that Is repugnant to his tem
perament and not sympathetic to his
beliefs about the separation of the
executive and legislative branches of
the government. If President Hard
ing had been asked any time up to a
few weeks ago whetner he would
ever exert pressure on congress to
hasten the purely legislative func
tion, his answer probably would havs
oeen an emphatic "no."
But the atmosphere of Washington
nas universally come to regard con
gress as lacking irt leadership within
itself and as dilatory in the important
matters of taxation and. tariff. This
is supplemented bv reDorts of rest
lessness throughout the country. The
two combined have caused President
naraing to show sie-n.i rwpntlv rr a
reluctant taking up of the leadership
mm congress lacks.
Pressure Brought on Harding.
The president has restricted his re
quests to congress for action during
me present session to two measures
only, taxation and the tariff. Those
two measures comnose th idmink.

session. air. warding undoubtedly
would have preferred not to be com

suKsesxion in nis first message to
congress. But the pressure on him
both from business leaders and from
party leaders throughout the country
is such that he may be expected soon

Undoubtedly, that part of the coun

putting the republican party in
power they were taking a step which
wouia result in a prompt and capable
transition from war-time conditions
to peace conditions. That this transi
tion must De accompanied by some
measures that will not be DODular In
the broad sense must be taken for
granted, but it was expected that the
republican party, backed bv such ;
huge majority and with such comfort
able margins in both house' and sen
ate as they had, would not lack the
courage to .grasp these problems

Business Resents "Embargo." Q
The fact is, however, this is just
wnat tne republicans seem to lack
In the present tax schedule and in
other respects we have a statutory
condition created in time of war, and
arising out of it. The present sys-i
em of taxation was designed to draft
money, and was designed also to
take from the private owners of busi
ness most of that unearned incre
ment which arose as an incident of
war. This was right and proper, but
when the conditions are reversed, and
we are in a period not of inflation,
but of deflation, the continued exist
ence of a tax system conceived in
this spirit works-hardships to Indi
viduals and ill fortune to the country.
There are aspects of our present
tax system which act as an embargo
on business transactions. Property

Approximating the conditions of those
eastern countries governed by the
Turk, where the farmer, estimating
the value of his crop and .the. portion
of it that will be taken by the tax
collector, decides it is pot worth
while to reap.
Problem Still Unsolved.
But no republican leader and no
republican group in congress swras to
have arisen that has either tne in
tense application or the intelligence
to work out what Is required, in or
der to change the condition, and yet
at the same time get the revenue. No
leader and no group have arisen with
the energy and industry necessary to
Dut such changes through. That this
condition has become known to the
country and has made the country
restless is the factor which now
brings President Harding to the
necessity, disagreeable to him, of as
suming leadership himself.
Method of Obtaining " Additional
Talesmen Held Obstructive
' and Not Economical.
SALEM, Or., June 20. (Special.)
Judge Percy R. Kelly of Albany",
while selecting a jury here this after
noon in the criminal case of the state"
against C.B. Durdall, expressed with
emphasis his disfavor of a new law
enacted at the last session' of the leg
islature providing that when the reg
ular jury venire is exhausted it shall
be necessary to obtain additional
tales-men from the list of qualified
jurors drawn by the county clerk.
As a result of the law Judge Kelly
was compelled to halt the trial until
such time as the new venire could be
summoned by the sheriff. In a num
ber of instances these men reside far
from Salem, thereby entailing delay
of the case and additional expense to
the county. . Had the old law been in
effect the needed jurors could have
been summoned by the sheriff within
a short distance of the courthouse
and the trial could have proceeded
almost without interruption.
After scoring the legislature for
passing the law. Judge Kelly con
eluded by saying:
"Mr. ClerK", I wish you would see
that my statements appear as of rec
ord in the court iournal."
Durdall. was on trial for embezzle
ment, in connection with obtaining
money from a local bank through al
leged misrepresentations.
