SERVICE PENSION
BILL PUT ASIDE
Senate Declines to Act on
Suggestion of Scott.

An effort to bring before the Senate
for consideration yesterday the SulIo-
way service pension bill failed to meet
with success. This is the bill recently
passed bv the House which, it has been
estimated, will add more than S+1,OON,OoO a
year to the pension roll.
Senator Scott the chairman Of the
Senate Committee on Pensions, was very
anxious to have the measure taken up
and passed yesterday afternoon. He de-
clared that old soldiers are dying every
minute in the day, and added
''One is probably dying at this very
moment while We are wasting time over
the question OF passing this bill"
Senator Lodge said the bill could not

luton for the election OF Senators by pop
ular vote, which has the right Of way
in the Senate, and Senator Bailey agreed
with him
Several Senators shouted a demand for
the regular order, which was not pleas
ing to the West Virginia Senator. who
remarked: This bill will rise up to haunt
the Senators who are trying TO defeat il
here, mind what | tell you"
Uncle Shelby CullOm, who guards sa-
credly his right TO bridge the Senate from
executive to open session, announced that
there was very great need for an execu-
tive session. and his motion was greeted
with laughter on the part OF Senators.
although nearly everybody voted for it.
save Senators Scott and Curtis, who have
joined hands in making the fight to have

LUMBER INDUSTRY
IS HUGE MONOPOLY
Herbert X. Smiths Report
Is Sent to Congress.

Herbert Knox Smith, Commissioner of
Corporations, has made a partial report
upon his investigation on the lumber in
dustry in this country. The report, which
covers only the natural supply end of the
lumber business, was forwarded by the
President to Congress yesterday.
The commissioner finds a huge monop-
oily in the very act of making. Here are
his own words:
I'm the lumber industry the bureau
finds now in the making a combination.
caused, fundamentally, by a lonG-stand-
ing public policy. The concentration al
ready existing is sufficiently impressive.
Still more impressive are the possibilities
for the future In the last forty years
concentration has so proceeded that 195
holders many interrelated now have
privately owned timber in the investiga-
ton area (Which contains 50 per cent of
the whole. This formidable process of
concentration in timber and in land GER
tainIy involves grave future possibilities
of impregnable monopoliStic conditions,
whose far-reaching consequences to so
ciety is now difficult to anticipate fully or
to overeStimate."
Commissioner Smith's report on the
lumber industry was made in response to
a joint resolution of Congress asking him
to ascertain the cause of the high price
of lumber, and especially if there was
any lumber trust or combination. The
commissioner will have a further report
to make on the combinations in the man
ufacture and sale of lumber as distin-
guished from the ownership of standing
timber, which is discussed in the report
submitted.

requesting action on the direct primary,
private bank examination, resource con-
servation, tax commission, public utili-
ties commission, reapportionment, and
other measures in which the public is
vitality interested, and calling attention
to the fact that of forty-five measures
passed very few come within the cate
CORY. He made some rather sarcastic
remarks about lobbyists, but declared
there was still time to enact the laws If
the legislature would settle down TO bus
mess. The message was read and filed
in the senate without comment, but in
the house it provoked one of the most
heated debates of the session.

NAVAL BIDS FAR APART.
Meyer Reorganization Plan Is Given
Strong Support.

Meyer Reorganization Plan Is Given
Strong Support.
The House Committee on Naval Affairs
is inclined to the belief that the most
convincing evidence that the Meyer plan
for the reorganization of the navy yards
is essential, is furnished by the wide dis
parity in the bids just received at the
Navy Department for the construction OF
two revenue cutters authorized by Con-
gress.
These cutters were authorized at the
last session of Congress with limit of
cost of 5000 The eight-hour pro-
vision was also made to apply. AS a re-
suit Of this private yards refused to bid
within the limit of cost. Consequently
it was determined to have the ships con-
structed in government yards and the
Boston, New York, Norfolk, and League
Island yards were asked to submit es-
Inmates.
These estimates just received show a
difference between the lowest and high
est bid of $751; 900 on the cost of 100000
ship. The Norfolk yard estimated the
cutters which Congress authorized con-
structed for not more than $4,000 each.
could be built for $4,000 each. This was
the lowest bid, for the Boston yard sent
a bid of 1855, 900. the League Island yard
one of $40. 900, and the New York yard
one of $450.000.
The Naval Affairs Committee of the
House Is inclined TO think that these bids
indicate something Is wrong in the navy
ward. and are more favorably inclined to
the Meyer reorganization plan in conse-
quence.
