URGES TRY0UT OF
INCOME TAX LAW
, COrdell Hull. Its Author, Objects
to Changing Collection at
Source Feature.

FROM ne tribune Bulea u
Washington, Feb. 1T.-Prompted by re-
peated criticism of the collection at the
source" clause Of the income tax, Repre-
sentative Cordell Hull, author of the in
come tax section OF the tariff law. issued
a statement to-day, in which he urges a
tryout Of the law and predicts that the
Treasury Department will evolve a COL
lection system that will not be incon-
venient TO taxpayers and bankers.
Il understand says Mr.. Hull, that
corporations and banks and trust COM
panies. acting az their fiscal agents,
urged the present certificate system under
which collection at the source as II relates
to interest of corporate. bonds has been
thus far administered. Those connected
with the drafting of the law had in mind
much more simplihed method also
understand that the Treasury Department
is working out simplifed method which
will largely remove the existing complaint
OF the banks and trust companies as to
expense and Inconvenience, and that this
will be placed I'm operation probably with
in a few weeks.
Information at the source would re-
quire greater detailed information from
the banks handling coupons with respect
TO the identification OF the bond, the
debtor corporation, and the name and
address OF the actual bond owner, than
would collection at the source In even its
present form OF administration. Further
more, information at the source could not
apply to nonresident American bond
holders, OF whom there are many thou
sands, and many OF whom receive as
much as $4,000 annual corporate interest
from this country"

TIME MAIN FACTOR
In NEW HAVEN PLAN
Government and Road at Odds
as to Period Necessary for
Dissolution.
From The Tribune Bureau. J

Washington, Feb. 17.-Dlfferences Of
opinion as 10 the time required TO carry
out fully the tentative programme for
the disintegration of the New York. New
Haven & Hartford Railroad system is
practically the only obstacle hating an
agreement on consent dissolution de-
cree.
This was disclosed to-day at a confer
ence OF the Attorney General and his
assistants, #. W. Gregory and Jesse c.
Adkins: Governor Walsh of Massachu-
Sets George ". Anderson, the Massa
chusetts Public Service Commission;
Howard Elliott, president of the New
Haven road. and the latters counsel.
Attorney General McReynofls insists that
the disintegration should be completed
within two years, or at least during the
Wilson administration. Representatives
OF the railroad believe that ten years
should be allowed for dissolution. which
will not disrupt the railroad situation in
New England or do harm to the interests
O, innocent stockholders.
Governor Walsh declared tonight that
he was interested In the negotiations
simply TO protect the interests or the
Massachusetts, stockholders. and that 10
this end he would urge that the states
option 10 buy tho Boston e. Maine and
certain powers now held by the Common
wealth be retained
There is some difference OF opinion as
TO the number OF trustees which should
constitute the board 10 take over the
-
by the New Haven road. Governor Walsh
has submitted to tho Attorney General
the names OF five New England men who
would be acceptable TO him, and he be-
lieves that at least three will be chosen.
II Is possible that only three trustees in
all will be selected. Fourteen names have
been submitted to the government, but
the list has not been made public Louis
u. Brandeis declined TO serve on the
board.

sion Bill Also Causes OF
Possible Friction.

Washington. Feb. THE President
viii hold q conference tomorrow with
Representative Underwood to which the
utmost interest attaches. because ON its
outcome appears to hars the answer 10
Tho question. Has the President reached
point where he must break with Con
srcsse'
President Wilson viii ttN 10 enlist the
support Of the Democratic leader for a
bir repeating the free tolls provision Of
Inc Panama Canal ACT Mr.. Underwood
IS stoutlv opposed to such step. but a
refyssl 70 Weld to the Presidents views
Will in the estimation OF influential Dem
ocrats. bring on a break between '"e
Executive ana Congress which viii widen
from now on until the end of the fresi-
Icntial term.
Another point Al issue between TIE
prcsiden< and Congress is the proposeu
illiteracy qualification IN the immisra-
ton bill. which has passed the House ana
- pondinC i'm the Senate. Whatever may
he President Wilson's personal views on
this subject. ne Is loath 70 take stand
either for or against the hteracy test
He realizes that whatever stand he may
take on this question VII cost him votes
and he il reluctant TO have Congress put
on him the responsibility Of deciding.
Mr.. Wilson has not given any indication
TO any responsible person of purpose 10
veto the immigration bill should 1t come
10 him with the lteracy test incorporated
but he would greatly appreciate II Il the
Senate would strike that test from the
measure before sending it to him.
Senator Smith, chairman OF the lmnh-
sration Committee. knows the PRESIDENT ;

me bill 10 the White House in the form
ia which il passed the House, at least so
lar AS this provision is concerned-a oe-
.dedly unfriendly course from me s'aic-
point of the President.
Another source Of friction between
'ongress and the White House is the
Trade Commission bill. which is part OF
ne administration trust programme ana
which has encountered pretty ehectINe
opposition. although, as President WILSON
points out. the measure he advocates goes
little farther than that which created 'he
Bureau Of Corporations. Taken by itseh'
there is every likelihood that differences
regarding this measure could be straight
cned out. but taken in conjunction with
the Panama tolls question ana the I'M
migration tangle the amount OF friction
may prove sufficient 10 cause the long
oOkcd for break

SENATE IN JERSEY
OTESPRIMARY
Hennessy's Measure for
First, Second and Third
Choices Is Passed.

lTron, p staff Correspondent 81 The Tribune
Trenton. y. j.. Feb. i7.-Senator Charles
O'Conor Itcnncssy's preferential primary
bill. under which the voters will haze
their choice OF candidates for a particular
nomination on primary day. passed the
Senate this afternoon by unanimous
vote. after predictions had been made
that legislation would be offered next year
which would entirely eliminate the pri-
maries
Senator Henncssy's bill, wnich in effect
is practically the same As that introduced
by Senator Colgate. provides for one
space TO the left Of the candidates name
in which the first choice is marked.
There are two spaces to the left Of the
candidates name, wherein the second and
third choice can be marked. neither OF
which is compulsory.
Nominations for United States Senator's
Governor Congressman and State Sena-
tors are only affected by the iennessy
bin II the constitutional amendment
prescribing Assembly districts IS adopted
by the people. these nominations viii also
come under the act.
The object Of the measure is TO provide
for majority nominations for these Of
fees. If when the first choices are count
ed il is found that none Of the candidates
have a majority. then the second choices
are counted and added to the FIRST choices.
If majority candidate is still lacking
| the third choices are counted ana added
! to the first and second choices. This
/ latter seldom fails TO bring out candi-
| date with a majority vote, advocates OF
! the measure declared.
! During the debate over the measure
! Mr.. Hennessy quoted the recent contest
J in the primaries for United States Sena-
tor as an argument for his bill. There
were three candidates among the Demo
Gratis, he said. and President Wilson had
10 use his influence TO get two OF them to
withdraw. so that there could be
straight-out fight between a progressive
and a reactionary Democrat. He laugh
/ ingly said that he wouldn't tell the de-
tails of how President Wilson accom-
! plished the task. This should not be, he
said.
| The Hennessy constitutional amend
ment providing for a smplifed method OF
changing the constitution also passed the
Senate, after it had been changed 10 pro-
vide for four months between the pass
ing Of an amendment by the Legislature
and the vote upon il by the people.
A large number OF suffragists were dis
appointed to-day when their amendment
10 the constitution did not come up In the
Senate For some unexplained reason the
amendment did not come from the House
until to-day, and consequently had to be
laid over until next week.
The House passed the new bills taking
care of the middle over jury reform, and
| Governor Fielder signed them before
nightfall.
