FAILS TO REACH
BONUS AGREEMENT
Ways and Means Committee
Has Not Reported Bill
Indorsed by Caucus.

/ The House ways and means commit
tee failed to reach an agreement today
to report the bonus bill prepared by the
republican members and indorsed by the
republican caucus last night This fail
ure was due to several proposed amend
ments.
By vote of IS to IL the stock divi-
dends tax, which was defeated by a
1-to-7 vote of republican members sew
eral days ago, was reincorporated today
at the meeting of the democrats with
the republicans Three republicans join
ed with ten democrats in support of the
proposal 1t is generally conceded that
If those urging the stock dividend tax
stand firm it will mean the defeat of the
bill
The committee also refused by strict
party vote to accept an so per cent retro
active war profits tax, proposed by dem
ocratic committeeman.
The ways and means committee re-
sumed its conference at o'clock this
afternoon. There is a strong probable
ity that the bill may never be reported
from the committee. A poll which has
been made of the Senate shows that if
any bonus legislation does get into the
House and is passed by the House. it
will be defeated by 2-to-1 vote in the
Senate.
1000 telegraph Protests.
House Leader Mondell had on his
desk today more than 1000 kilograms
from all parts of the country in pro-
test against the proposed legislation.
More than 200 of these kilograms
reached Mr.. Mondell's office last night
in anticipation of the republican
caucus on bonus legislation. and more
than 500 others were delivered at his
Office early today.
These kilograms are from in
dividuals. from prominent political
leaders, from business men. trade or
gan1zatlons and represent practically
all of the important industries in the
country. Each telegram is differently
words in length. while others contain
only a terse protest against any bonus
legislation Some of the kilograms
protest specifically against certain
proposed taxes-for example. the retail
sales tax and the stock dividend tax.
The bill. approved by a vote Of 166 to
80 in the caucus last night, provides for
payment Of adjusted compensation at 81
for each days domestic service and
$l.25 for each days foreign service,
with a maximr.1 Individual grant of
$500 for domestic service and $625
for foreign service. Other provisions
include a plan for paid-up insurance,
home and farm aid. vocational edu-
cation and extension Of priority right
to settle lands, the total amount Of
Individual loans granted under this
section being $1,000. Payments would
be based on service from April 6.
1917. to July l., 1919. and would be-
gin July l. 1921. and continue quarterly
for three years.

REPORT TO SENATE
ON SCHOOLS
Result of Inquiry May Not Be
Filed Before Next
Week.

Although reporting progress" in
the consideration of it's report on the
public schools of the District, MEM
bers of the Senate select committee
which has been conducting the inves-
tigation into the school system said
today that it might be the first part
of next week before the report is
finally filed with the Senate. The
committee Is scheduled to meet again
at o'clock this afternoon.
Notwithstanding the delays, it was
said today that the committee would
bring in a unanimous report and that
it has already reached an agreement
on a number Of the proposed recon-
mendations.
Some Senstors Restive.
Some of the senators who are op-
posed to the confirmation of the NOM
ination of DR.. John Van Schaick, jr..
as District Commissioner are be-
in the submission Of the report Of the
schools. DR.. Van Schaick is presi-
dent of the board Of education. which
was under fire in the school investi-
cation, and it has been the general
understanding that the Senate would
missioner until the school report has
been made to the Senate.
1t was said today that unless the
school report is forthcoming at an
early date an effort might be made to
take up DR.. Van Schaick's nomination
and act on it. Confident predictions
were made by some of the senators
that the nomination would be rejected
by the Senate.
Time Grows short.
The present plans are for a recess of
the Senate. beginning about June 5, un-
til after the national political conven-
tions, probably for six weeks or more.
The time is growing short. therefore. in
which the Senate may act upon Dr. Van
Schaick's nomination. Should the Con-
gress by any chance adjourn, as some
are urging, before the conventions and
not return until December, then the
President would have tn opportunity of
giving DIR. Van Schaick a recess appoint
ment, under which he could take Office
and serve at least until the Senate re-
turned in December and acted upon the
nomination.

Pressure Being Applied
to Dealers in Luxuries
by the New York Banks

NEW YORK. May 2o.-New York
banks today applied pressure to i'm
porters ana merchants dealing in
luxuries and non-essentials, in COM
pliance with the request of the Fed
eral Reserve Board that they aid in
the defiation of credits.
Customers who handle such lines as
jewelry, pleasure automobiles, furs
objects of art, cosmetics and the more
Injurious articles of wearing apparel
were notified that for the time being
credit accommodations as were abso-
lutely necessary for the conduct OF
their. business. In financial circles it
was believed this action would effect
a drastic curtailment in the trading
operations of such dealers. which
would necessarily be reflected in their
sales to extravagant consumers.
Meanwhile. the wave of price cut
ting by department stores and others
continued to spread here. The prin-
cipal reductions are in clothing and
shoes, with cuts from 15 to as high as
10 per cent. Newspaper advertise
ments today tell the story of the re-
duction with such lines s Reductions
of $23 to $40 in womens high-class
wraps" 80 per cent off on our en-
hats" ANY suit. coat or dress at hall
