The bricklayers looked at one

with their backs against a house

their legs. Finally one of them spake
up and said:

Boston Millionaire Will Erect Dental
Infirmary at Back Bay.

Boston. March 15.-Thos. A. Forsyth,
a wealthy resident of this city plans
TO give S2,0O0,0O0 for the care of the
teeth of the Boston school children.
The money, with part of which
will be erected a building equipped
with every modern apparatus known to
the dentists art, and manned by a
corps of the best dentists i'm the state,
has been set aside by Mr.. Forsyth and
only the passage of bill petitioning
for the incorporation of his idea by the
legislature stands between the plan and
it's immediate realization.
The Forsyth Dental Infirmary, the
name given to the new institution, VIII
be located on Hemenway street, in the

TAX DEFENSE
Government Submits Brief Today
on Behalf of Constitution
ality Of Law.
BUSINESS IS subject TO TAX
States That II is Not Direct Tax Upon
Property But an Excise Tax Up
on Business-Income as
Measuring Medium.

Washington. March 15.--The govern
ment defense of the constitutionallty
OF the corporation tax was submitted
TO the United States supreme court in
brief today. The government claims
1t is not a direct tax upon property but
is an excise tax upon carrying on Or
doing business"
The statute, IL is claimed, shows the
transaction Of business to be subject Of
tax and the income of business is used
merely as a measuring amount of the
tax. Several decisions are cited to sus-
tain this contention.
1t is also claimed this tax Is not a
direct tax upon shares of stockhold-
ers. nor upon the income. Also that
IL does not become a direct tax in the
special case of company dealing in
real estate. Another point made IS
that the tax is not an infraction OF the
general power of states to authorize
the formation of corporations.
individuals and partnership are ex-
empt because they are without aid of
legal rules applicable to corporations
and joint stock companies. says the
brief. The exemption of labor and
frateInal societies is justified on the
ground they are not organized for
profit.

RAILROADS ASK
FOR MEDIATION
Request for Investigation Of Con-
troversy With Firemen
is Granted.
STRIKE ORDER NOT GRANTED
COMMITTEES Has Not Made Public the
Date for Calling Walk out, Al
though This Action May be
Taken This Afternoon.

Washington, March 15.-Mediation
under the Erdman act has been re-
quested in the controversy between
the railways In the Chicago territory
and their firemen and enginemeu. The
application for mediation was made
by the railroads. The request will be
granted
The application for mediation made
by the general managers committee is
comprehensive in it's scope 1t includes
not merely the question of wages,
which is the crux of the dispute, but
also hours of labor and conditions of
employment. In fact it covers every
phase of the difficulty that has arisen
between the roads and their employees.
Strike Order Not Vet Issued.
Chicago. March 15.-The date and
hour of calling a strike of the firemen
on the western railroads were decided
on by the union officials committee to-
day and the committee adjourned un-
til this afternoon without announcing
the time when the strike will be called.
President Carter of the union said
that in his opinion the committee
would order the strike regardless of
the mediation proposal. The railroa'
officials declared mediation under the
Erdman act would stop for the present
at least the proposed walkout.
This afternoon a committee of union
officials will assemble and If a telegram
from Chairman Knapp is received will
give IL their attention. If no telegram
is received II is the expressed deter
mination of the union committee to
conclude it's business and decide whe-
ther to make public the date of calling
the strike.
Both Ask for Mediation.
Chicago III, March 15.--President
Carter of the Firemen's organization
stated this afternoon he had received
telegram from Chairman Knapp and
Commissioner Neill informing him the
union officials and railways had asked
for mediation.
