MUNITIONSPR0FITTAX
is UPHELD BY COURT

Il is estimated TIC. the government
will profit to the extent OF SlO,Oo0OOO
under decis on filed by Judge Thomp-
son in the United States District Court
in Philadelphia on Saturday In en.er-
ing judgment for the government in o
suit brought by Worth Brothers to re-
cover S7i.s57.7O paid as special war mu-
nit.ons tax TO the collector Of internal
revenue.
The action was a test suit 90 deter
mine the right Of the government TO
collect a special tax OF ~ 10 per cent.
Of the net profits from war munitions.
Worth Brothers oontended dhat ths
rough steel forg'ngs they sold 10 the
NJ dvale Steel Company could be used
for commercial use and they could not
be classed as a munition until fin shed
by the Alidvale people into a shell, and
accordingly could not be subject to dhe
tax.
Judge Thompson ruled that all manu-
facturers OF munitions are subject TO
the tax, regardless Of whether the work
is only in the early stages OF the rough
material or when completed. To hold
that the tax Is not assembled until the
shell is completed would be TO nullify
the whole purpose OF the tax law. he
says, and be decides he would not b.
justified in interpreting the law to lead
TO such a result.

SAYS GOD SABBATH
LAW is IGNORED

In his sermon last night in the Queen
Theatre. Evangelist Booth said In part:
while the command OF the deca-
logue that speaks OF the Sabbath says.
The seventh day is the Sabbath Of tho
Lord thy God. the whole Christian
world is found observing the first day
Of the week.
This question is serious one be-
cause sin Is the transgression OF the
law. ] John a. Sin must be confess
ed by the church or the individual in
order that the Lord may blot II out
Only confessed sin will be forgiven. II
We refuse to confess, we need not ex-
pect to be forgiven. Unconfessed sin
separates from heaven and prevents our
prayers from being heard
Christ, all the prophets OF the Old
Testaments, and all OF The Apostles and
prophets OF the New Testament taught
the keeping OF the commandments o.
God. and kept them as an example TO

Adopts Conference Report on
Wheat Bill! and Sends Docu-

PROVIDES LARGE sum
Act A~ppropriates One Billion Dollars
as Revolving Fund to Purchase
1919 Wheat Crop at Rate Of
$2.26 per Bushel.

Washington, March 5.-According to
veteran capitol employees, never before
have such crowds of spectators
thronged the capitol during the clos
ing hours of any congress. Galleries,
corridors and esen the main halls OF
the capitol were damned.
An effort by Chairman Flood of the
House Foreign Affairs committee to
bring the resolution for Irish indepen-
dence to a vote in the house was made
at 2 a. m. Several speeches were in
progress and Chairman Flood an
nounced that. he would endeavor to
suspend the rules to bring the meas
ure to a vote.
Admission Cards Useless.
Admission cards to the galleries Civ
en- by senators and representatives,
usually the open sesame, were less
than useless, their holders being un-
able to get up the two flights of stairs
or the elevators to present them.
The administration wheat guarantee
bill was completed with adoption of
the report by the house and is now
ready for President Wilson's signature.
The measure appropriates $1,000
000, 900 as a revolving fund for the
purchase of wheat and authorizes the
President to create an agency or agen-
cies for purchase of the 1919 crop at
the guaranteed price Of 1926 a bushel
and to repose in the agency or agen-
cies the authority to control all COM
merce in wheat and wheat products.
Republicans FiIibustering.
Renewed controversy over the
league of nations and the long threat
ened Republican filibuster came as the
clocks were ticking off the hours end
ing the life of the Sixty-fifth Congress.
Unprecedented crowds watched the
proceedings in both senate and house.
In the senate the majority filibuster
was under Roadway on the general de-
ticiency bill carrying an appropriation
of $3.50, 100000 for the Railroad admin
istration, while the house marked time

ing for the last thS conference report

important Measures Fail Where
Session Is Talked to Death
BY Senators.
WILSON STANDS PAT
Insists Extra Call Must Await Return
From France-FaiIure of Rail APP
preparation May Mean Early
Return of Roads.

Washington, March 5.-Congress
adjourned at noon in the midst of a
flibuster by a small republican group
in the senate, that killed a long list
of important measures.
Among the bills that failed was n
appropriating $750,0O0,0 900 for the
railroad administration, without
which, some administration leaders
say, the railroads must be returned to
their wner before the middle of
April.
Gavels Tap on Time.
There was no turning back of clocks.
Democratic leaders realized the situa-
tion was hopeless and the gavels end
ing the long, great war session and
the SiXty-fifth congress-, actually tap
ped at noon.
Just before adjournment President
Wilson, in his capitol office, authorized
final notice to the republicans that
their effort to force an immediate ex-
ira session had failed; that he was
mistaken in his determination not to
call congress until his work at the
peace conference was done.
Return of Roads Urged.
Senator Smith of South Carolina,
chairman of the interstate commerce
committee, and Senator Overman of
North Carolina We're, among those who
went to the presidents Office and
urged that since the republicans had
defeated the essential appropriation
bill the railroads be returned to their
owners forthwith.
After Democratic Leader T. S. Mar
tin had told him the railroad bill coald
not pass, the president authorized Mr..
Martin to that under no cir
cumstances would he change his plan
to postpone the calling of the new con-
gress until his return from France.
The president gave none of his call
ers any intimation of his plans regard
ing the disposition of the railroads.
Some senators advised him to return
them Immediately to private owner
ship, but the president received all
advice without comment.
Marks Democrats Passing.
Adjournment marks the passing of
democratic control at the capitol. The
congress that expired at noon began
in April, 1917, passed the German war
declaration, and it's almost continuous
sessions have been marked by unprec-
edented legislation and controversy.
Big bills that failed included both
the army and navy appropriation
measures. The only two important
measures that ran the gauntlet Of the
last AS hours of ~filibustering were the
| Victory Liberty Loan and the 81, 000,-
900 900 wheat guaranty bill.
Suffrage Loses Out.
While Senator l.. N. Sherman was
speaking, Senator A. A. Jones of New
Mexico sought unanimous consent to
present a favorable report of the
woman suffrage committee on the suf.
frage resolution, but the Illinois sena'
tor blocked his efforts by refusing to
yield the floor.
