WASHINGTON. Dec. S.-President viii
sons recommendations TO Congress are 70

Republican leaders, they made plain to-
day in informal discussions Of the mes
sage read to the two Houses yesterday.
The Republicans said in effect that
while they agree with Wilson that the re-
construction job should be tackled and
finished as soon as possible, there is no
hope of agreeing with him as to the
methods to be followed.
One exception was noted in the general
rejection of the Presidents request for
immediate action. This was the budget
bill, which is scheduled to pass the Sen
ate soon and go to Wilson
Tax revision will be deferred. There
is strong feeling that something should
be done for the disabled soldiers and
sailors, but that too will have to wait,
according to present plans Govern
mental economy cannot be brought about
fully until Governmental reorganization
is accomplished under the next admins

The recommendation for q loan to

Is a wide varience of opinion regarding
the Philippines. The laws Wilson has
twice asked TO regulate cold storage

His proposal to license all concerns do
ing an interstate business was greeted
by Republicans and many Democrats
with the condemnation that 1t was
"socialistic' or paternalistic.

hellion, for a rebellion can only be made
against a legally constituted authority.
This Is an insurrection, an insurrectiOn
against a tyrannicaI authority which Ire

Ireland has suffered from landlord
tyranny for years, she said. One partlr-

said, was that Catholic parishes were
forced to contribute to the support OF
non-Catholic clergy who did not reside In
Ireland and who were paid out of pub

Disposal of Rat
Tails Worries City

Employees Lie AI0ake Trying to
Dope Out Scheme for
Handling Them.

Employees in the city controllers Of
fee almost lie awake nights trying to
figure out what they are going to do
with the rat tails which will begin to
roll IN by the hundreds when people, par
ticularly school children. learn that the
city council has passed an ordinance pro-
viding a bounty of 5 cents for each eau
dal appendage delivered. The employees
are living in hope that the slaughter Of
the rodents will not become wholesale
until City Controller Bryson RECEIVERS
from an illness which confines him to his
home at present so that he, and not they,
may work out a scheme for the disposal
Of the tails.
The controllers office cannot get away
from handling the tails because the or
dinance specifically provides that the
controller shall pay the bounty on those
delieverd. 1t will be necessary to keep
close track OF all brought in to make sure
that those for which Willis Jones is paid
do not get into the hands of Johnny
Smith so he. too. can collect on them.
Various schemes are being suggested.
Here are some OF them:
Install a cold storage room so they
may be preserved for the scrutiny of the
State board of accounts at any time
Chief Examiner Jesse Eschbach gets sus-
picious that the outgo Of nickels exceeds
the income Of tails.
