OMITTED FROM new
APPROVED MEASURE

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The
Smoot proposal for manufacturers
sales tax is not included in the re-
vised house tax bill as formerly ap-
proved today by the senate finance
committee, Senator Penrose said that
after some discussion of the proposal
in which treasury experts Joined no
action was taken Senator Smoot re-
served the right to present 1T in the
senate.
While accepting the principle OF
Senator Calder's amendment to i'm
pose a tax of $40 a gallon on all alco-
holic liquors withdrawn from bond for
other than manufacturing purposes,
the committee did not include the
text in the bill to be presented to the
senate Wednesday.
Chairman Penrose said Mr.. Calder
would offer the amendment In the
senate and that practically it would
be a committee amendment.
Before taking its formal vote on the
house bill as revised, the committee
agreed to an amendment repeating
the one cent tax on amusement ad-
mission charges of 10 cents or less.
Treasury experts estimated that this
provision would reduce government
revenues $5,000,000 a year.

PLAN FARM SCHOOL
FOR MEXICAN Poems,
SAYS CHURCH BISHOP
(By Associated Press)

ABINGDON, H., Sept. 19.-Estab-
lishment of farm school for the
poems of Mexico, the first of it's kind,
in that country, is planned by the
Methodist Episcopal church, Bishop
Wilbur P. Thirkield of Mexico City,
announced at the Central Illinois con-
ference here today. The short way to
civilization in Mexico, he declared, is
through the training of farmers IN
practical agriculture, and he reported
that in two personal conferences Pres
ident Obregon had given him strong
endorsement of the plan.
Land for a demonstration farm at
a strategic point at Queratero has al
ready been acquired and plans for the
school building have been drawn.
Must improve Conditions
"The fundamental problem of Mex
leo is that of the peons," Bishop Thir-
kield said Until these ten millions
! can be reached and lifted into broad
er and stronger life, the republic is
not safe. For a century the peon has
| been used as the tool of revolutionary
| leaders. A new peOn, conscious OF
| liberty, with some ghmmering concep-
| ton of human rights, has come to the
| front.
THE question now is into what
channels this fresh. surging tumult-
Gus, undisciplined life shall be turned.
AS a new social and political force
the peon must be reckoned with.
The seat of unrest and peril is in
! the poverty of the 1andless peon. The
only stable basis for a democracy in
Mexico is the creation of large group
of small land owners.
! Would Sell Land to Poems
| President ODregon's new program
for Mexico has in view the purchase
of some of the vast tracts of land and
I their sale on hong terms to the peon
class, duly protecting them in their
holdings. To make this a permanent
success the pGon needs practical train
ing as a farmer. He has today neither
! the initiative nor the knowledge anC
skill to win permanent success. The
states neglect of training in agricul
ture is to be deplored
is relation! between improved crops
"Presidert Obregon sees that there
and social betterment. These solo
enduring o1nditions of life must spring
from the soil And agriculture as ar
industry is basic in Mexico. Really
the principal industry in Mexico is ag
riculture, and it has vast unrealizeC
possibilities"

MINE union HEADS
PREPARE FOR ANNUAL
CONVENTION OPENING
tBy Associated Press,

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 19-Officiais
of the United Mine Workers of Am
erica were busy today completing ar
rangements for the biennial conven-
ton of their organization which opens
here Tuesday, and which, they be-
lieve. will be the most momentous in
the history of the union.
Topics to be brought before the con-
vention include a variety of subjects
and some of them will have an i'm
portant bearing upon the industrial
welfare of the country. Among the
important matters to be discussed
are.
Wage demands that will be present
ed to both the anthracite and bitumi-
nous coal operators before the expira-
ton of the present wage agreements,
March 81. 1922.
Conduct of the strike in the West
Virginia fields.
Naturalization of the mines.
Employment of foreign labor at diff
ferent mines.
May Hold Long Session.
Numerous other subjects will be
brought up during the convention, and
| it is probable that it may continue in
session three weeks.
The formulation of wage demands
| is expected to be the subject of great
est discussion. John L. Lewis, inter-
| national president, has reiterated his
| opposition to any reduction in the
wage scale.
The situation will be unique, in that
| the wage agreements of the anthra-
| cite and bituminous miners expire
! simultaneously next March. In past
years these agreements have termin-
ated on different dates and it has
| been impossible to consider wage
scales for both groups at the conven-
| tons
The West Virginia mine war doubt
less will be discussed at length, Off
Gals say, as also will difficulties IN
other fields. Reports will be received
from officials who have been in
charge of the West Virginia strike.
Unemployment Question Up
Many subjects will be brought up
on the floor of the convention in the
form of resolutions. The problem OF
unemployment is expected to be pre-
sented and some action may be taker
to express the sentiment of the min
ers in regard to the labor situation
Delegates will be in attendance from
all of the local unions of the United
States and Canada.
