WOULD DIVORCE POLITICS
FROM FARM INTERESTS
Representative johnson Views
Agricultural Problems Wholly
From the Economic Standpoint.

Farm organizations must be eco
nomic in their purposes rather than
political, and in that way they VIII De
more permanent and more aovah- :
tageous to the farmers they propose
to serve. This is the message sen. out
son of Minnesota, chairman OF the
joint congressional committee OF agri-
culture inquire. which has Tor more
than three months been giving inteh :
sive study to the problems OF the
farmer, what his relation Is to gem
eral welfare, and what must be done
for the farmer to assure general pros
perity.
In his statement Chairman Anderson
decries political organization IN tne
name of the farmer to get class legis-
lation rather than to effect these re-
forms that will be for the more lasting
good of the entire community. he
says:
"Politics and economic organizations
of farmers will not mix. The JUST
economic purpose. This is the message
which | sent out several weeks ago
to the farmers of the nation, and
feel gratifled at it's favorable recep.
tion by the substantial agricultural
interests. Particularly do l feel pleas
ed that Gov. Nathan L. Miller, at the
New York State fair last week. took
this particular subject as the theme
of his address, and disapproved Of at
tempts of farmers organizations to
exert political power. characterlzlng
such attempts as hostile to Ameri-
can institutions and certain to result
to their own disadvantage"
1T is impossible to conflne the po-
Iitical interests of the farmers to
those matters in which they nave a
class economic interet, and II 1t were
not impossible t would be inimical
to the public interest to do So"

GETTING TAX BILL
READYFOR SENATE
Committee Hopes to Intro
duce the Amended House
Measure Tomorrow.

The House tax bill as amended by the
Senate finance committee was being
whipped into shape today for presenta- :
tion tomorrow when the Senate recon-
venes after Its recess of month. The
me asure will be pressed as soon as the
business of the Senate will permit, and
Chairman Penrose expects it to be sent
to the President by the latter part OF
next month.
Repeal of the excess profits tax and
reduction of the maximum income sur
tax rate from 65 per cent to 32 per
cent are the provisions expected to
draw most of the opposition hre on
the Senate floor. Democratic leaders
hope to marshal their forces solldly
against these proposals. and they
count on support from the republican
side.
Other Provisions to BE Opposed.
Opposition also is promised against
the Senate committee provision to
continue the freight and passenger
taxes for the calendar year 1922 at
half the present rates. The House
voted to eliminate all of these levies,
and some members of the ways and
means committee expect 1t to insist
upon their full repeal as of next Janu-
airy should the Senate vote to retain
them.
A number of amendments to the
committee measure are to be offered
on the floor and some senators look
for extended debate. particularly on
the manufacturers sales tax plan to
be presented by Senator SmOot of
Utah, a republican member of the
committee. and the whisky tax
amendment which Senator Calder Of
New York has given notice he will
present.
Senator Penrose does not expect
any serious delay in consideration of
the bill and is of the opinion that
it can be passed after two weeks
debate. He is not certain now when
it will be possible to get it before
the Senate, but says he will press for
it's consideration as soon as possible.
Additional Changes Made.
Before finally approving the bill
yesterday the committee voted two
additional changes. Under one
amusement admission charges not
exceeding 10 cents would be exempt
from the l per cent tax imposed by
the present law. Under the other
hotels would pay tax of 10 per
cent on the entire amount charged
to transients for rooms if the sum
exceeded IS for one person and IS
for two persons. AS originally pre-
scented by Senator Reed, democrat,
Missouri. the tax would have been
paid only on the amount by which
the charges exceeded these sums.

A resolution calling upon President
