Harrisburg representatives were
siven warm welcome by President
William G. Lee, now head of the
tralnmen. Mr. Lee, who recently
underwent several operations and
was in poor health, was improved
and Will shortly resume his activity.
In his address President Lee told
how Mr.. Morrissey was elected vice
president of the organization in 1889
and at the convennJn IN Galesburg
III 1895 was elected grand master
At this convention Mr.. Lee was
elected first vice5president to Mr..
Morrissey. Mr.. Lee stated that after
leaving the convention both he and
Mr.. Morrissey expressed the opinion
that probably they were foolish to
Eive up railroad jobs to assume
Charge of an organization which was
practically defunct. However" said
Mr.. Lee, sit was only through the
business dealings of Mr.. Morrissey
that the organization grew to one of
the strongest in this country. Also
it was through his guidance and
teachings that 1 was able to adapt
myself to carry on the work which
he so nobly started" Mr.. Lee rep

GREAT WAR BOND
BILL SCHEDULED
TO PASS TODAY
Senate Votes Down Proposals
to Levy Enormous Tax
on Profits
BY associated Press

Washington, Sept. 6.-The war
bond and certificate bill was again
under debate to-day in the House
with continuance of Republican at
tacks on certain features of the
measure. Their opposition to the
provision delegating wide authority
to the Secretary of the Treasury IN
making loans to the allies prevented
final action on the bill yesterday.
Its passage without material amend
ment before tonight seemed assured
however.
The Republicans planned to-day
final effort for the adoption of an
amendment for congressional war
expenditures committee. Prospects
were, however. that the House would
defeat all such proposals as it did
yesterday.
The Scnate's bitter fight over war
profits taxation virtually ended late
to-day with adoption of the finance
committees compromise provisions
for total levy of S1.2S6, 100000, or
about .one-third of this years war
and normal excess profits.
This is an increase of 1850, 0,000,-
600 over present taxes. The high tax
advocates failed to secure adoption
of. a single amendment.
The vote on adoption of the
illdiltt COllHlltlee uTaIl was = 10
a. The seven were Bankhead,
Borah. Gronna, Johnson (Califol :
nia), La Toilette, Underwood and
Nardaman.
AS now written into the bill, the
war profits section strikes out the
House provision for an additional
tax of 5000, 000,00 and is a substi-
tute for the present excess profits law
now yielding 1926, 100000. The total
levy of the new provision is estimat-
ed at s1,2S6, 100000.
1t also extends the tax to ordin-
airy normal peace profits in excess
of 10 per cent, in addition to excess
sive war profits, reached by gradual
ed rates, amounting to surtaXes,
ranging from IL to 60 per cent. The
excess is based upon the net income
above $4,000 of corporations. part
nerships and individuals in trade or
business over the average Of 1911,
1912 and 1913-the prewar stand
ard-with n minimum exemption Of
per cent. of actual invested capi-
tai and a maximum exemption of 10

with $549, .460 in the first half of

three months of car shortage and
congestion during the winter.
