becomes a law 1t VIII inJure the business
OF the city.
'Such legislation would not be ocun-
tenanced In any city Of this size IN the
country" said Mr.. Warner. IF such a
law was proposed in any city like New
York or Philadelphia the person propos-
ing Il would be done bodily harm"
Fulton r. Gordon declared that the pro-
posed House bill originated in the tax as
SCISSORS once, and that II was suggested
by people who wanted to shirk their
duty. He said that they should not be
criticised for their actions, because he
believed they did not realize the harm
that would be done IL the Dill should ever
become a law.
No Need for Law.
J. Louis wTlige said that Congress has
no more right to demand the recital or
the real consideration In deeds than IL
has TO force the proprietors OF jewelry
stores to advertise the buying price OF
their goods in order that the pawnbrokers
might know just how big a loan should
be made on Il.
This proposed bill has been drawn up.
IL is said, for the purpose OF enabling the
tax assessors to arrive at a fairer as
sessment,' said Mr.. Willige. But there
is no need for this bill. for the present
tax assessments are fair. II the owner
OF property believes that he has been
assessed too much a board OF equalization
has been established for the very pur-
pose OF righting the matter"
William II. Saunders declared that the
proposed law would only result in cut
ting down the amount OF business trans
acted in the city, and at the same time
cause the revenues Of the District to de-
crease.

highway any sign, notice. or advertise
ment of rates or charges for its use.
Violations of the law are punishable

has been before the District oficials
for several months.

value OF the Taylor system Of scientific

made by civilians that young naval Of
hcers in the navy yard have assumed an
overbearing attitude toward them. is the
outgrowthr OF the Threatened waIk-out
made at a meeting Of Columbia Lodge,
International Association of Machinists.
last Wednesday night This much was
positively stated at the Navy Depart
ment yesterday, where IL was stated that
there Is now no immediate danger of a
strike.
breach Il AVerted.
Conferences held yesterday between
Vice President J. conlin. OF the inter-
national union; James O'ConneII, head
! OF the metal trades department of the
American Federation OF Labor, and As
sistant Secretary Winthrop were the
beginning Of this Investigation. At the
conclusion of these conferences both
labor officials and the Navy Department
heads expressed themselves satisfied
that no danger OF a breach was immi-
nent. The Washington Navy Yard en-
ployes last night received word that
the Norfolk Navy Yard workers would
meet TO reconsider their action in strik-
ing.
The outcome of the meeting OF on
cials and representatives of union en-
ployes in the navy yard was the expla-
nation by Secretary Winthrop, speaking
on behalf of the department. who said
that the introduction OF the hour
cards. found Objectionable because
they resembled part OF the.Taylor
idea" was a mistake. The lower por-
be filled out.
President W. II. Johnson. when seen
last night. stated that there was no de-
sire on the part Of the navy yard en-
ployes TO use extreme measures.
An additional fact brought forth dur
ing the conferences yesterday was that
the Navy Department has entirely aban-
doned the idea Of introducing the Taylor
system of management into its navy
yards. The Issuance Of the cards. some
features of which are objectionable, was
done because the department had run
out OF its regular cards, and was re-
quired to send these for emergency pur-
poses. Besides explaining this, Secretary
Winthrop laid stress on the fact that the
Objectionable portions OF the new cards
were not 10 be considered.
Attention was called to the report Of
Secretary Meyer for the last fiscal year.
in which a modified form Of the English
firm of Vickers, known as the VtckerS
system, was indorsed by the Secretary.

British navy yards.

There is no desire on the part OF the
