about six billion dollars In 1919 and
four billion In 1920, as compared with
the levy of $4,000 100000 for next
year. proposed in the bill passed by
the house three months ago.
When the final vote was taken ut
10:40 o'clock the senate had been In
continuous session for nearly thirteen
hours. Immediately after the passage
of the bill the senate began Its holiday
vacation under the plan for three-day
recesses until January 2. Absence of u
quorum In the, house. however, had
prevented that DSuy from putting u
similar program, Into effect.
The revenue bill, which had been be-
fore the senate since December II.
now goes to conference with formal
meetings of the senate and house man
ayers, planned to begin January 2 with
d view TO final enactment of the legis-
intion next month.
In dlsposing finally OF controverted
sections, the senate rejected, 55 to 0,
the substitute bill OF Senator La Fol-
lette of Wisconsin which proposed
higher rates principally on war-excess
profits and individual income sur
taxes.
Another vote on the second-class
postage question also was taken and
the senate sustained. Al to %, It's pre-
yious action In favor OF the amend
ment, which will repeal the existing
zone rates OF publications ana substi-
tute II rate of cent n pound within
$50 miles and Ia cents pound be-
yond.
A change made In the automobile
tax section. provided for exemption OF
trucks, tractors and trnilers, reducing
the bill's estimated revenue yield by
about $30,0O0,000, but the reInsertion
~ the luxury tax clause will result In
an estimated yield Of Ss0.0o0,o00.

Ing here, December 20 of the standing
committee of the Association of Rail-
road Executives, according to an Off.

alton every detail OF the program.
The program will be submitted next
month to the senute interstate conf-
merce commission, IL IL Is approved ut
a full meeting OF the association called
for December 30.
Whatever the cost, 1t was said, the
executives are opposed to extending
the period of federal control beyond
twenty-one months nfter the signing
Of peace, as prescribed by law. 1t Is
understood that. rather than have the
time extended to five years, as sug-
gested by Director General McAdoo,
they would prefer return Of the roads
