fense insisted that profits on ship
ments should includrd in the

book entries but the court decided
against the proposition.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The fac
tory boy and factory girl had their
first inning in congress- today when
they appeared as witnesses before the
rules committee of the house, which
is considering the necessity for an in
vestigation into the Lawrence, Mass,
strike.
Ten boys and three girls. part of
the striking army of woolen mill
workmen, appeared to tell the CON-
mdttee of the hardships of life under
tine working conditions imposed by
the mill owners. The committee,
seeking full information, called the
children as witnesses.
Carmella Teoh, an Italian girl 16
years old, pretty and shy. was one Of
the Exhibits" Two years ago she
was caught in loom and frightfully
injured. Her scalp was torn from her
head, but no legal proceedings were
Instituted against the company. She
still works in woolen mill and with
her father supports a family of seven.
The aggregate pay Of father and
daughter is 81 per week. The little
boys took more interest in admiring
the luxurious fittings Of the commit
tee room than i'm the profundity Of ex-
by the attorneys who rep
resented them.

Republican Colleagues are
Taken Wholly by T..
Surprise
Sensational Action Of Caucus
Principal Theme Of
Discussion
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 2.-House
and senate leaders of all shades of
political belief gave themselves over
today to discussion of the sensation.
al action of the house democratic cau-
Gus last night in indorsing what in
effect is an income tax on all net in
comes, including salaries above $1,000
a year. That the house will pass the
measure by a party vote Within the
next ten days or two weeks is taken
for granted. The discussion there
fore, turned largely on the reception
the bill would get in the senate It's
fate there seems doubtful. The plans
of the house leaders were not wholly
disclosed today, but it was apparent
that. a bill to extend the excise law
now relating to corporations, so as to
include co-partnerships and individ-
uals was to be urged upon the house
ahead OF the bill to put sugar ON the
free list.
A later bill will, of course, share
in the debate on the socalled income
tax, for 1t was to make up deficit
of more than $5O.OOO,O00 to be lost in
customs revenue on sugar that the
new taxing measure was devised.
Democratic leaders want to be sure
the deficit will be provided for before
the duty is removed. The new plan
Of the democrats took their republic
an colleagues wholly by surprise.
