were emergency tariff and mmigra-
ton acts; a new army bill cutting the
army down to 10000; and the budget
bill. On April 80 the senate adopted
a resolution declaring the war with
Germany and Austria at an end; on
June Is the house adopted a resolu-
ton of similar purport, and the meas
ure was finally passed on July / and
signed the next day by President
Harding. Repeated efforts to pass a
soldiers bonus bill came to naught,
but a soldiers relief bureau was Gre
ated on August 2. and Col. G. r. Forbes
was made its director. The house
passed both tax revision bill and a
tariff bill, but the senate did not get
around to the latter. The tax meas
ure was enacted into law on Novems
Der 81.
Among other important measures
passed were bill to exempt American
coastwise shipping from payment Of
Panama canal tolls; bill for govern
ment regulation of the packing indus
try: the $48,500,0OO shipping board
deficiency bill; the billion-dollar farm
exports credit bill; and various meas
ures relating to enforcement of the

Richie Mitchell on January IA Jack
Britton, welterweight champion, de-
feated Ted Lewis OF England on Feb

den won the international champions
