HOUSE REFUSESPOWERS
TO INCOME TAX AGENTS
Secretary McAdoo's Request for In
quisitorial Authority Is
Flatly Denied.

AS far as tho House of Represents
tives is concerned. no internal revenue
collector on the trail of an income
tax will be allowed untrammeled
possession of the books. papers. stock
lists. etc. OF corporations or associa-
tions- Secretary McAdoo's recent
startling request for a law OF this ma
ture has been ignored absolutely by
the House committee on appropriations.
to which the request was referred.
and the statement Is made by an
authority on legislative matters that
the ways and means committee does
not intend to amend the income tar
laws in any manner at this session
at least
IN the estimates which went to the
House from the Treasury was q re-
quest for legislation to give income
tax collectors an inquisitorial power
much greater than that now held by
almost any official on earth. 1t was
proposed that corporations should
turn over their papers and stock usts
to the internal revenue commissioner
on demand: that whenever O col.
lector should believe a fraudulent re-
turn had been made he would have
the power to summon before him
everybody connected with tho alleged
frauds affairs. and that corporations
not complying with the act could be
fined $4,000.
The proposed legislation was too
strong for the appropriations commit
tee That committee has no real right
to handle Legislation OF that character
anyhow. and absolutely refused to
tack IL to the general deficiency bill
reported yesterday.

ABOUT 1000, 900 CHILDREN
OF TOTO IS YEARS WORK
In 1910 23.4 Per Cent Of All Fe-
males Over Ten Were Engaged
in Gainful Occupations.

OF the females ten years OF age and
over in the United States. 23.4 per cent
were engaged in gainful occupations In
1910. according to the figures presented
in the report on occupations recently is
sued by the Department of Commerce.
THE proportion" continues the report
was per cent in the age period ten
to thirteen: 1913 per cent in the age period
fourteen to fifteen; 39.9 per cent in the
age period sixteen to twenty; 26.3 per
cent in the age period twenty-one to
forty-four and 1871 per cent in the age
period forty-fve years and over"
The large proportion of the females
sixteen to twenty years of age engaged
in gainful occupations Is accounted for
by the fact that in this age period all
the females are old enough to work. and
matrimony has had little effect in de-
creasing the number of workers.
There were 1.98O.225 children Of both
sexes, ten to fifteen years Of age. en-
gagged in gainful occupations in 1910
The report also shows that the per cent
of child workers Is increasing in the
United States.

New York Court Declares CONNER
cialized Use Of Teaching
Is Illegal.

NEW YORK. July 11.-Commercialized
use Of Christian Science teaching was
held by the appellate division Of the
supreme court yesterday to be illegal. The
conviction in a lower court Of Willis
Vernon Cole for practicing medicine with
out a license when he accepted fees for
Christian Science treatment was sus-
tanned The higher court, in its negative
premises. says: "Is the commercialized use
Of prayer for the avowed purposes OF
treating all persons seeking cure for all
kinds Of bodily Ills the practice OF the re-
ligious tenets of a church,"
Cole. formerly a sculptor and a poet.
testified at his trial that his practice
brought him an annual income OF 5000:
that he had never studied medicine and
that he never solicited fees, but accepted
those offered him.
Church Officers Statement.
Clifford P. Smith Of tho committee on
publication of the Christian Sciene
Church. issued a statement later de-
claring that the practice Of Christian
Science differed from the practice OF
medicine and that it could not "be made
the same by law"
1t was announced that in all probability
the case will be appealed. The appeal
probably will be based upon a dissenting 6
opinion rendered by Justice Bowling, say
ing that If Cole indulged simply in silent
prayer with his patients there was moth
Cole might honestly believe he was 'as-
sisting the cure of the alleged maladies''
by placing his patients in the proper
