Lumber was taken up today, lead

lumber situation are in some respects
, different from those Of the steel in

lumber to other building materials
also was involved. -
The example set by the steel in
dustry is relied upon strongly by the
industrial board as an influence to-

Dublin, March 3.-(Corresponden
of the Associated Press)-Disappoin
ment is expressed in Belfast as well
as in Dublin over the policy adopted
by the government to solve the prob
lem of providing homes for the
people. In England the housing
schemes are said to- be we'll advanced.
lieved here to be greater than in
England, nothing has been done and
the plan proposed by theSgovernment
is criticized as unsatisfactory and not
likely to produce the results desired.
|" In England the local authorities
are authorized to impose penny tax
to meet the loss on building schemes
and the state will provide funds nee
essary to cover the loss not made good
| by the tax.
| In Ireland there is to be no penny
rate. The local authorities will have
to borrow from the banks the money
necessary for building the houses. The
Irish local government board, "a. body
sappofnted by the castle and not re-
gArded as responsible to Irish opinion,
will determine what is fair rent for
the houses and the treasury will pay
part of the differences between the
! lClI pdlu Wy LiC ICIdHL 1IAO CllC
amount necessary to meet the cost of
living.
1t is considered likely that the local
authorities in Ireland will find it diff
ficult to borrow this money from the
banks, as these local authorities will
be largely Sim Fein bodies which
probably will treat the local govern
ment board as an English authority
] to be challenged and obstructed. Con-
sequently the prospects of success for
the Irish housing plan are not re-
garded as hopeful.
A good deal of the unrest in Dublin
is attributed to the condition of the
!. Dublin slums. Twenty-one thousand
| families, about one-third of the popu-
lation, live in one room tenements
The government inspector has re-
ported that about fS,000,0O0 is needed
for housing.
1t is not believed possible that Dub.
lin could borrow eight millions under
the scheme proposed Belfast is q

is about equally disappointed with the
proposals of the government.

More Than .Expcctcti.

This is more than the treasury had
expected from this installment pay
ment and without a complete analysis
officials believe it is accounted for by
the fact that many citizens paid their
tax in full instead of taking ad-
vantage of the installment privilege.
An examination of records will be un-
dertaken later to ascertain whether
the total yield from income and
profits taxes exceeds the preliminary
estimates of approximately $4,000
100000. Indications on the face OF
today's reports were that estimates
made at the time of enactment of the
revenue bill were fairly accurate.
The second New York district re-
ported s145.551. 1000, the biggest col
,lections of any district. and the third
Massachusetts, with $75,203,O00 was
second. The first Illinois, including
Chicago, reported incomplete returns
of $72,0S9,0OO. The twenty-third
Pennsylvania has $54,315,000.
All but five districts showed decided
increases over the 25 per cent of last
years income tax collection. The ex-
ceptions were Minnesota, New Mexi-
CO. Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and West
Virginia. On the basis of last years
collections Minnesota's qlarterly de-

100000 but they were only $1,000
900. philadelphia should have been
s41,0OO,OOO but were $3S,00G,o0O.
while West Virginia's. which should
have been s11,000,000 were only $1O,-
100000. Pittsburgh on the same
basis, should have collected $S0,OO0,-
900, although actual collections were
only $54,00e,000.
Revenue officials expressed the be-
lief that final reports will put all dis
tricts ahead of their 25 per cent rec
ords last year except Pittsburgh. In
that district many steel companies
which paid their tax at Pittsburgh last
year, probably paid this year in the
New York district.
The New Mexico district does not
expect to complete tabulations for two
and three weeks.
The largest increase in collections
over last years report was shown IN
North Dakota and the eighth Illinois
districts, where there was a 240 per
cent advance The third Iowa shower
$50 per cent increase. the fourth
North Carolina 155 per cent and the
Fifth North Carolina and South Caro-
lima each showed 125 per cent in
crease.

Program is Changed.

Paris March 22.-Because Of Pres
ident Wilson's desire = to attend seq
sions of the council of ten and the
league Of nations commission, today's
peace conference program was re-
versed. The council met this morning
while the league of nations body will
meet this afternoon.
In connection with the league com
missions session to consider amend
ments to the covenant. the text Of the
amendment proposed by the Swiss
delegation to the conference of lneu-
trails was given out this morning. It
reads:
This covenant shall not be inter-
preted as containing anything con-
trary to the sovereignty of states ex-
cept insofar as the state itself, by adj
herring to the covenant, shall consent,
and the covenant itself shall not In,
terfere with. the internal affairs Of
any of it's members" G4
While the amendent does not mem
ton the Monroe doctrine. it is tacitly
understood to apply to it. Some Of the
members Of the American delegation
are inclined to accept an amendment
on such lines, feeling that 1t would
meet the demand Of the United States
for some declaration in the spirit Of
the Monroe doctrine. -
Berne,,' March z1.-(Friday,-fBy
the Associated Press. .)-Several Swiss
newspapers are urging that a pIAb-
iscite be taken on Switzerland's entry
into the league of nations. They ex-,
pressed the fear that Swiss neutrality
eventually would be endangered.
