f" ASHINGTON, July 10.-lnstead
w of S47 amendments, it was found
" today when the conferees met
that only 800 vital changes in the house
tariff bill had been made.
More than 200 of the amendments
consisted in changing the phrase, as
provided by section l and of this act

ton" This was necessary because the
senate consolidated the dutiable and
free lists and made the maximum and
minimum provision the second section
of the bill
Nearly 300 other amendments relate
to phra seology over which there VIII
be dispute. and the adjustment of the
differences between the house and sen-
ate does not seem so serious a task.
Few members Of the conference com
mittee are willing to place the time
necessary for the completion in con-
ference at less than ten days.
Two sessions of the conterees were
held today. The first began at 10 a

Amendments were considered TODAY
in their numerical order. When the
session closed for the day the con
ferees had passed through the chemical

than-half way through the metal
schedules. All of the amendments I'D
the schedules. however, were not set

has not been considered by the con
ferees in any way. Nevertheless, 1t
was predicted in congressional circles
tonight that the proposed tax on the
net earnings of corporations would be
reduced in conference from ? to l per
cent.
1t was also reported the corporation
tax and provision might he eliminated
and the house inheritance tax provision
restored to the bill, but no cont1rma-

Der in lengths required. This large
saw only saws the lumber in large
dimensions. say 4, 6, or 10 inches
thick and as wide as the square of
the log, when it is dropped onto this
roller carriage and three large arms
come up from underneath the car
riage and throws ii over onto the
platform where it is taken hold of
by this underneath machinery and
lifted to the smaller carriage where
it is also sawed up into such lumber
as it is most suitable for, by another
band saw only smaller than the one
at the head of the mill. From there
the lumber is distributed in every
direction, the small and refuge stuff
which is TOO short and small for
lumber goes to the rear and with the
slabs is made up into laths and of
which is handled by these carrier
belts to the yards where it is handled
on two-wheeled trucks, and hauled
by one horse to the planning mills, or
the drier or wherever it is destined
TO go. The planning mill works 1t up
into flooring, siding and finishing
lumber and from there it goes into
the cars and vessels for shipment and
it goes through all this process al
most as fast as it takes to tell it. But
of all the machinery and fast work

mated that $4,000 people in the city

seems to not make any difference
what shape or dimension the logs are
in Many logs come up the runway
to the mill that are split in halves
and quarters. They are sized by
the big saw and then put onto an
other carriage which runs endwise

and up against solid wall, which
serves as measure for the shingle
blocks when sawed. The blocks drop
over from this carriage to another
carriage running at right angles, for
a distance of probably $50 feet along
which is placed men at regular dis
tances who take the blocks from
this carriage and place them on a
small platform where there is a
small circular saw which runs at a
terrible speed. There they size the
blocks. giving them one flat surface,
and from there they go onto the
shingle machine, to the rear of them.
A shingle machine is built in a circle,
probably ten feet wide. and around
the outside of the wheel Is groves
in which these blocks are placed, the
wheel lying flat and this wheel keeps
up a continuous revolution. and un-
derneath this wheel are fine band
saws. The block passes over these
saws, cutting the shingles. The saw
on one side is set at small angle
one way while the saw on the oppo-
site side is set at the reverse angle,
hence making the shingle thin at one
end and thick at the other and the
block is always kept the same thick
ness and square by alternating with
the saws The shingles are cut from
below and of course fall below, and
go to the trimers and packers below.
The trimmers stand along in stalls
like orange or apple pickers and
handle each shingle trimming each
side by means of small circular
saw that is arranged on a frame and
this work is done very. fast The
trimmer throws the shingle when
trimmed over his shoulder onto a
shute which empties onto the pack
ers' tables, where the shingles are
packed for market. and the packers
become expert in this business. One

the machinery. All along the rum
ways there are holes and brushes on
the carriages which carry away all
refuse to the holes and dumps it onto
carriers below which in turn carry
it to the refuse burners or out into
the water.
One going through these many
mills, and the entire sound is lined
with them as well as as all the lakes,

years until the bill business would be
