JERSEY CITY. N. J., May g.
Mayor Wittpenn today gave out
another statement indorsing the jury
reform bill. which retains the power
of drawing juries in the hands of the
sheriffs, acting in conjunction with
a commissioner appointed by the
chancellor. The mayor said:
Il firmly believe that there is no
doubt about our ability to pass the
jury Dill agreed upon at the Jersey
City conference. The test vote in the
conference yesterday very plainly
indicated that the members of the
Legislature are ready to agree upon
this measure. 1t now becomes essen
tial that every one stand absolutely
against compromise or against any
indirect effort to defeat this bill
"The opposition will endeavor to
so confuse the situation that 1t will
be possible for them to impair the
integrity of the measure. The Presi-
dents telegram to the acting Cover
nor is very much in point, as the
slightest weakness on the part of the
elements behind the bill will work
toward defeat
"The passage of this measure is
vital to the future Of the Democratic
party, and either our pledges must
be kept at this special session or we
will go before the people as a party
which violated its platform prom
ises."

His Hair Clipped,
Senator Thomas
Loses His Identity

WASHINGTON, d. c., May o.
As Samson found his strength
vanished after Delilah shipped his
locks, so Senator Thomas, of Colo
RADIO. found his official identity
lost after paying visit to a bar
Der shop in the capital. He even
was spurned by the Senate door
keepers. The story. vouched for
by certain of his colleagues, leaked
out today.
Senator Thomas long has gloried
in a waving name. But when
the sizzling heat Of an unusually
hot spring. day settled ON WASH
ington it ceased to be source of
qualification or glory. The Sena-
tor stood the discomfort as long
as he could and then decided to
be shorn. An overzealous barber
shipped the statesman's locks
down to the scalp.
Back" said a portly door
tender. when Senator Thomas
sought to enter to the floor Of
the Senate. you can't get in
here"
But I'm Senator Thomas pro-
tested the applicant.
"Nothin' doin'," retorted the
doorkeeper, looking at the sup
posed intruder's apparently bald
head. You'll find the elevators
to the public galleries down the
corridor to your right
The Senator was rescued by a
colleague, who disclosed his iden-
tity to the embarrassed keeper
of the door. The barber. at last
reports, was said to be in hiding.

SENATE MAY Al TER.
INCOME TAX BILL
Democrats Count Upon Such
Action, but Changes Will Be
Minor Ones.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-The ad-
ministratNe and income tax features
of the tariff bill remained to be dis
posed of today when the House con-
vened. Both sections are important
portions of the bill, with many pages
of details that puzzle new members,
but their adoption virtually intact
was confidently counted upon by
Democratic leaders.
The preferential of per cent. upon
foreign goods brought in American
bottoms and the strenuous opposition
of Insurance companies against pro-
visions of the income tax on the
ground that policyhoIders would be
premiums were issues ahead when
the bill was taken up.
All on the Democra tic side. while
not proposing to bolt the caucus that
bound the majority to the ways and
means committee bill. were not entire
ly agreed upon the details of the in
come tax, though there is no differ
ence of view as to the principle. Those
who differ count on the Senate to
make some minor changes.
One change to be urged in the SEN
ate is to provide that the income tax
shall be levied upon the income of
the calendar years after 1918. but to
apply this year only from the date
of the ratification OF the constitutional
amendment.
The idea IS to avoid any possible
litigation over collection of a tax that
would include as basis the time be-
tween January l. the present pro-
posed basis of the levy, and the time
Of the two-thirds ratification. which
was on February g. Those favoring
the change have conferred at the Cap
itol and the White House and ex-
pect it to be made. contending that
the government can well afford to
omit a month this year.

To Probe Potter
Wage Conditions

WASHINGTON, May 6.--An inves-
tigation of wages and conditions in
the pottery industry was started to-
day by the department of commerce
because of threatened reductions in
wages which certain manufacturers
claimed would be made necessary by
the tariff reductions on pottery in
the Underwood bill.
A special investigator left for New
York. where he will begin the inves-
tigation, which probably will be ex-
tended to other industries Secretary
Redfield expressed the determination
to get at the facts as to the present
conditions in the pottery industry.
If decrease in wages follows the
passage of the tariff bill he will have
statistics to present to Congress to
show comparisons between present
and future conditions.
