Insurance Rates.

Madison-The legislative joint COM
mittee on finance recommended to
the senateathat the Bray bill, No. BY,
repeating the law providing that per-
sonal property taxes shall be an offset
against income taxes, be indefinitely
postponed. The report Of the finance
committee was not accompanied by a
statement of the committee proceed
ings on the bill or the vote of the
committee on the motion to recon-
mend it for indefinite postponement.
Senator Bray, author of the meas
ure, moved that the committee be re-
quested to file such a statement with
it's report and the motion prevailed.
Senator Bray offered an amendment
to his political party convention bill,
and the bill and amendment were
then re-referred to the committee III
charge of it for further consideration.
The amendment provides that "a po-
litical party convention may, by ma
iority vote or by minority vote OF at
least one-third of the number of dele
gates present and voting, indorse the
candidacy of any person who consents
to become a candidate for nomination
and who declares himself in substan-
tial accord with the platform adopted
by the convention, but no action is to
be taken by the convention when
shall conflict with the primary cleo
ton law or present the selection OF
candidates at any primary"
Senator SkOgmo introduced SUB
stitute for his bill presented earlier IN
the session, creating a bureau for fix
ing fire insurance rates in Wisconsin,
The substitute is similar to the Ben
nett bill on the same subject, but Sen
ator Skogmo believes his substitute
would make better law. He said that
there was no difference of opinion
among the members of the legislature
as to the necessity of creating rate
making bureau. Both the Bennett and
Skogmo bills are now before the SEN
ate committee on corporations.
The finance committee introduced
bill appropriating $4,000 to the Wis
consin geological and natural history
survey commission, and $22,500 to the
Wisconsin state printing board for the
next two years.

.F|L|BUSTER IN SENATE DEFEATS
SONS PLAN TO ARM VESSELS
Chief Executive Issues Vigorous Protest Against Act of Twelve
Members of Upper House President Inaugmaed for
His Second Term-German War Plot Against
America Exposed

Washington, March 6.-Defying the
will of a vast majority Of congress,
twelve senators maintained a tilibus-
ter up to the moment of final adjourn
ment Sunday and prevented vote on
the fundamentally bill which would
have authorized the arming of mer-
chant ships by the president. The fill
buster was led by Senator La Toilette
Of Wisconsin, and those who assisted
and supported him were Clapp of Min
nesota, Cummins of Iowa, Gronna of
North Dakota, Kenyon of Iowa, Norris
of Nebraska, Penrose of Pennsylvania,
Works Of California, Republicans; ;
and Kirby Of Arkansas O'Gorman of
New York, Stone of Missouri and Var
daman of Mississippi, Democrats.
Spokesman for the president de-
nOunced the filibuster as the most rep
rehensible in history.
UNFOLDING throughout &c hours of
continuous session to appeals that
their defiance of the president would
be humiliating to the country; uncom-
promising in q crisis described to them
as the most serious to the nation since
the Civil war, La Toilette of WiScon-
sin and his small group of supporters
refused a majority of their colleagues
an opportunity to vote on the armed
neutrality bill.
1t died with the Sixty-fourth con-
gress at noon Sunday.
To fix responsibility before the
country, 76 senators, 30 Republicans
and IS Democrats, signed a manifesto
proclaiming to the world that they ia
vOred passage of this measure.
President Wilson's Appeal.
President Wilson on Sunday issued
from the White House an official
statement of the situation and a Wig
Or0us protest against the senate rules
that permitted small majOriy to
Illustrate the wishes of the majority.
In 1t he said:
1.-THE remedy! There is but one rem
edy. The only remedy is that the
rules of the senate shall be so altered
that it can act. The country can be
relied upon to draw the moral. I be-
lieve that the senate can be relied on
to supply the means of action and save
the country from disaster"
At the same time the president au-
thorized the further statement that
what rendered the situation even more
grave than it had been supposed that
it was was the discovery that, while
the president under his constitutional
powers, could do much of what he had
asked the congress to empower him to
do, it had been found that there were
certain old statutes as yet unrepealed
which raised insuperable practicable
obstacles and virtually nullifed his
power.
