Taft Has Little Hope for Early Action
on Tariff BILL

Washington, May 5.-President Taft
has come to the conclusion as a re-
suit of talks with senators and mem
bers of the house of representatives
during the past two days that there
is little or no chance for an adjourn
ment, of congress before June Is or
July 1.
The president has also declared that
he favors an income tax only as a last
resort that recourse in case of a de-
ficiency under the new tariff act
should first be heard to an inheri-
lance and next to a corporation tax.

former tactics of barring the approach

ing the Woods taxation and public
service corporations bill forced a
crisis today.
with this DILL approved by two
committees the politicians acting
hand in glove with big corporations
agenls, decided to go through wtth
the program of defying Gov. Harmon.
The caucus of SENATE Republicans
was the result. Following the caucus
'on strictly party vote the senate
refused to reconsider the Clevengcr
resolution, which provides for the
creation OF a commission to study the
taxation question and to report 70 the
next session.
by this action the senate reiterated
its intention TO head off all consider
alton of the pending tax bills. No
tice was served on the house that 10
pass the Woods bill would be use
less since 1t would be killed In the
senate. 1t is now dcubhful whether
the senate ever gets the Woods bill.
Representative Woods will fight to
have the bill made special order
and in SO doing will put every mem
ber of the house on record. The mo-
tion to reconsider the Cievenger res
olution was made by Senator Rath-
burn (Rep,) the one member OF the
majority TO hold oGpt against the can-
Gus. Eight OF the twenty Republic
cans refused to redeem their pledges
made yesterday, to vote for reconsid-
GRAFTON and at least make bluff at
paying some attention to recommend
ations of the governor.
The house of representatives spent
two hours in debating the Vaughn
hill to eliminate the 12-cent mileage
graft enacted by the last assembly.
This amount of time was not suf-
ficient to exhaust the supply of ora
tory and further consideration OF the
bill was put over.
