Coast of Jersey
Wireless From, Panan,Qr,
Says She Is Standing by
the I'm. Henry Webb

The steamship Panaman wirelessed
to New York shortly before midnight
that she was standing by the United
States Shipping Board vessel William
Henry Webb, which was reported Grip
pied and afire about three miles off the
New Jeresy coast, between Beach
Haven and Tucker Beach Light. The
message said the Panaman would take
the Webb in tow this morning and that
it was not believed the assistance of
the coast guard would be required.
The Webb carries q crew of forty.
The coast guard cutter Seneca, which
was already at sea in response to a
distress call from the Avondale, another
Shipping Board boat, started for the
William Henry Webb on learning by
wireless of its plight.
Wireless appeals for help sent out by
the William Henry Webb were SO
urgent in tone, demanding Immediate
assistance" that it was thought the fire
was out of control. There was a heavy
sea running, making it impossible for
the Coast Guard to reach the burning
vessel with a boat from shore. The
Seneca can scarcely reach the scene
before a. m.
The City Of Montgomery, a coast
wise boat, picked up the Webb's sos
and replied that she might be along
side by midnight. A late wireless from
the Webb declared that if the flames
we're not under control by midnight
the vessel would be abandoned. An
ether message sent out late in the
afternoon was:
"On fire and in need of immediate
assistance. In vicinity Of Coast Guard
Station No. 118, near Beach Haven,
N. ]. Want help quick"

Legislature to Vote
War Seruice Bonus
Republican Leaders Agree
on Early Action to Re-
aUard Mey. and Women
From Il Staff Correspondent

ALBANY, Feb. ia state bonus for
every man or woman of New York
State who served the country during
the World War will be provided by the
present Legislature. Speaker Thad-
deus c. Sweet of the Assembly an
nounced to-day that the Republican
legislative leaders, at a conference, had
discussed the question from all angles.
"The conclusion arrived at" he said,
twas that legislation be prepared for
early introduction tending to provide
q state bonus for the service men and
women as just recognition of the part
they played in the military and naval
establishments of the United States in
the World War. Tne exact details of
the form of the legislation were left
for later consideration, when an oppor-
tunity would be offered for confer
ence with officers of the American
Legion of the State Of New York"
There are now thirty-three bills be-
fore the Legislature providing benefits
for World War veterans, but it is ex-
pected that the leaders will adopt an
entirely new program. These bills pro-
vide for memorials, tax exemptions and
civil service preference, besides several
bonus measures.

1921 Tax Rate
To Be Raised
10 or Ill Points
Craig Says City Budget for
Next Year Will Pass the
$500, 600, ,OOOMark ASKS
$l2,5OO, ,OOOfor Teachers

Comptroller Charles L. Craig warned
the budget makers of the Board of Es-
innate yesterday that there would be
an increase in next years budget of
more than $25,OO0,0OO. He said this
was due to the fact that it would carry
$12,000,000 for street improvements.
$12,500,000 for increased salaries of
school teachers-provided the legisla-
tion on the subject now pending at
Albany is passed--and $2,50O,000 in
creases in the salaries of other city
employees.
To offset this, the Comptroller said,
there will probably be an increase Of
$700,000,000 in valuation of real estate,
covering increased rentals, but that
this would only bring in about $17,0OO,-
600 increase in tax collections There
fore the tax rate in 1921 is practically
sure of advancing ten or eleven points.
The city budget for the current year
is $685. 3,689,485, and the increase pre-
dicted by the Comptroller would carr
it over the 100000, 900 mark.
Comptroller Craig brought up the
matter of placing the $8,220 ,003 cost of
the improvement of Seventh Avenue
in the tax rate for this year, and it
was decided to do so. The apportion-
ment on the different boroughs will
be: Manhattan, 81 per cent; Bronx,
Queens, 7 per cent. The Borough of
Richmond does not figure in the as
sessment. The remainder is assessed
against the city as a whole, it being
one-third of the value of the buildings
taken in the proceedings.
Craig and Connolly Clash
Comptroller Craig and Maurice E.
Connolly, Borough President Of Queens,
staged one of the liveliest verbal en-
gagements at yesterdays meeting that
has ever occurred in the present Board
of Estimate. Previously the Mayor
and the Comptroller have figured as the
principal combatants. but yesterday
the Mayor acted as peacemaker. He
did not succeed in restoring order, how
ever, until the point had been reached
where the spectators expected to see
hair pulling and fisticuffs.
a perfectly innocent looking item on
the calendar was the cause Of the row.
The committee on grades and sal
aries, of which Mr.. Connolly is chair
man, reported that a modification of
the schedule was required in order to
permit the payment of increased rates
to bookbinders. The Comptroller flushed
and loudly denounced the action of
the committee. He declared the COM
mittee had no business to take this
matter up. He said he could pay the
prevailing rate of wages in his depart
ment without consulting the commit
tee. He declared that Borough Presi-
dent Connolly and Secretary Joseph
Haag, of the Board Of Estimate, were
working together to make trouble for
the Finance Department.
"Oh," exclaimed Mr.. Connolly, "the
board is getting tired of the pickering
and TRADING on the part of the Comp
troller."
The Comptroller fairly Kissed at the
Queens Borough President when he
said:
"You are pulling political wires be-

Canada to Cline

OTTAWA, Feb. 13.--Canada
has given Great Britain notice
that it objects to any change in
the covenant of the league of ma
tions that will prevent the Do
minion from being full-fedged
member Of the league and having
a vote in the assembly.
The Canadian Cabinet voiced
its objection specifically to the
Lenroot reservation to the cove
nant concerning the voting power
of league members. A sugges-
tion has been made that Canada
withdraw from the league if it
loses its vote in the assembly.
No official action has been taken.

Special Dispatch to The Tribune

DETROIT, Feb. 13.-Maurice Maeter-

a book about the American people. He
announced this fact upon his arrival
in Detroit on his way to the Pacific
Coast to study motion picture produc-
ton and write series Of film plays.
The information was given not as a
piece of news, but rather as explain
ing the difficulty of replying to a
question as to just what reactions M.
Maeterlinck experienced by contact
with the life of this country.
"That is tremendously broad ques-
tion," answered the poet. "What strikes
me most forcibly is the great noise.

LIGHTNING STRIKES BARN
SETTING 1T ON FIRE

While the rain and electrical
storm was in progress, last Wednes-
day afternoon, lightning struck the
barn of Mr.. C. S. Rowe, near Center
town, and the strike and resulting
fire destroyed practically all the con-
tents. Among the losses were two
horses, several tons of hay, some
wheat and many other valuables.
A number of persons had entered
the barn seeking refuge from the
rain but only one of the number. Mr..
Arvin Leisure. was seriously shocked
by the bolt. He is recovering nice
ly. A peculiar thing about the mat
ter is that although the people were
standing almost between the two
horses killed, all escaped alive.

THE AGRICULTURAL PLANK
(Owensbero Inquirer)

L
The agricultural plank OF the Sar
Francisco platform invites the sup.
port of the farmer not only on the
basis Of very difnite accomplish.
ments in the field Of agricultural
legislation, during the past eight
years. but on further definite con-
structive program as well.
II makes for itself an excellent
case. BY contrast with such gem
eralities of the Chicago platform as
"the farmer is the backbone Of the
nation" and 1.-The crux of the pres
ent agricultural condition lies In
prices, labor and credit" the Demo-
Gratis are able to enumerate no less
than six important pieces Of con-
structivs legislation, that have been
passed with the idea of putting ag-
riculture on better footing. That
the last Republican congress not on
ly failed to add anything to this
program, but even interfered seri-
ously with the operation of the fed
eral farm loan act is a matter easy
of proof
In the agricultural northwest the
farmers have united to a high de-
gree to protect their own interests,
Unfortunate consequences for the
country would ensue were an unen-
lightened agricultural policy to
oblige the farmers of the nation to
align themselves with the radical
elements Of the industrial centers.
Increasing farm tenancy and alb
sentee landlordism present serious
agricultural problem. The Wilson
administration has acted in way
to check the growth of this unwhole
some tendency, and to prevent agri-
culture from deteriorating into the
sad state in which it now finds it
self in England. The party now
pledges itself to continuance Of the
good work. By supplying fertilizers
at reasonable costs, by facilitating
the cooperative handling of farm
products, and by further improving
credit facilities more is to be ac-
in the direction of easier
of the land.
