London, March Especial promi.
nence is give nby the Daily Mail to a
Dublin dispatch representing the situ.
alton in Ireland as being extremely
bad and maintaining that the need of
effective self.government is more urg.
ent than ever before.
Now that the Sim Fen members
of the house of commons have been
released the dispatch says there
will be new assembly of the Irish
parliament which probably will be a
very troublous affair without an au.
thoritative administration to balance
its activities. Labor troubles of great.
est import are growing, and It is i'm.
possible for the British government
to handle them. There is barely a
section OF Irish labor which is not pre-.
pairing or threatening to strike for
demands which no employer possibly
can grant"

EFFORT TO EXEMPT

proposed TO exempt oil interests from
the proposed extra tax levy to be made
under tnc McNabb resolution to pro
vide nine months of school in every
district i'm the state, failed Of passage
in the house by a 81 to % vote. The
McNabb resolution proposes an addi-
tional levy against all property not
exempt from taxation
1t was contended by Blddison, who
lodged a motion to reconsider the
amendment, that the present three per
cent gross production tax is a sufn-
cient levy on this class of property and
that il an extra levy be made 1t will
double the oil industry taxation. Rep.
resentative Stevenson of Garvin coun.
ty preciptated a discussion about the
parliamentary status of Biddison's mo.
ton to reconsider and the first resort
to an appeal to the house was taken.
Speaker Waldrep ruled that Steven.
sons point of order, contending the
parliamentary status was such that a
motion to reconsider could not be
lodged, and was not well taken. ste.
venson and Glasco had urged that the
resolution was on the calendar for final
passage and that under the rule OF the
chair it would be possible to stne legis
lation by Offering amendments and

amendments failed Stevenson appealed
