INHERITANCE TAX To
HAVE EARLY HEARING
Senator Norris Is Planning
Amendment to Be Argued
in Special Session.

The question of an inheritance tax
is to he threshed out at this session of
Congress in connection with the tariff
and income tax measure. Possibly an
inheritance tax provision may be hitched
to the Underwood bill.
Only n few days ago it was made
public that John jacob Astor had be-
queathed property worth s10,Go0,oo0 to
young Vincent Astor. This has stirred
I'D attention in Congress, the feeling
being pronounced that SO vast sum
should not be permitted to go down from
one generation to another without di-
vision with the community
Senaor Norris of Nebraska. Progress
sive Republican. will shortly present an
inheritance tax bill in the form of a
proposed amendment to the tariff and
income tax bill. He plans to exempt
moderate inheritances, but to get after
the big office, and to graduate the tax
SO that il will be as high as 25 per
cent on the swollen fortunes.

Wilson FeIicitates
Congressman-EIect

Il very heartily congratulate you on
your splendid victory" telesraphed
President Wilson to John ]. Mitchell,
Congressman-elect from the Thirteenth
Massachusetts district. whose selection
at the polls is hailed as a significant
triumph of the low tariff party I'm the
very citadel of the protective tariff.
The result has strengthened the tariff
leaders in Congress, because the only
reply they ,,n need when sh then the new Schedule
duties, Is attacked. is to read the cleo
tion returns from the district which is
most deeply affected by the cuts.
The Republicans timed the election so
as to have distinct influence in Con-
gress In case of a G. o. p. victory. The
fact that they were signally defeated is
taken to mean that even Massachusetts,
which suffers severely under the Under
wood tariff bill, indorses the new policy
