UTAH SHIPPERS WIN FIGHT.
U. S. Commerce Board Decides in
Favor of Coal and Ore Mines.


Washington.-Uta shippers will not
be compelled to pay the 20 per cent
Increase in the intrastate freight rates
on coal and ore asked by the carriers,
TO correspond with the blanket in
creases granted on interstate rates by
the interstate commerce commission
last August. This decision was an
nounced in ruling handed down Feb
ruary % by the interstate commerce
commission.
In the same decision, intrastate pas
senger rates on steam railroads only
were ordered increased by the % per
cent in order to correspond to the in
terstate rates. No findings are made
in the decision regarding fares on cleo
trio lines, and these, therefore, remain
unchanged
The decision in the Utah case is the
last of dozen handed down by the
commission, and in all save this in
stance. thhe carriers have been granted
authority to increase interstate rates
to the new levels ordered on interstate
rates.

HARDING IN FAVOR
OF ADEQUATE NAVY
REsiDENT-ELEcT WOULD KEEP
PRESENT BUILDING PROGRAM
WITHOUT GREAT CHANGE.
Party Leaders Predict That Letter
Received by Senator From Mr..
Harding viii Have Potent In
fIuence in Coming Contest.

WashingtOn.-It Is announced thai
the influence of President-elect Hard
ing will be thrown behind the bis
navy program of the senate naval af-
fairs committee majority and against
the stand of the house for decreased
appropriations for the naval establish
ment.
The views of the president-elect
were set forth in letter received by
a prominent senate Republican and
quickly reached the party rank and
file in both senate and house. Iarty
leaders promptly predicted that Mr..
Harding's letter would have potent
influence in the forthcoming contest
in the senate over the naval appro-
priation, which was increased $780,
100000 by the senate nasal committee,
and in differences with the house in
case the appropriation bill passes the
senate with its augmented total.
The presldent-elect in his letter, 1t
was said authoritatlvely. expressed
himself Gs desiring a continuation of
the present naval building program
without substantial reduction.
No reference was made by Mr..
Harding in his letter, it was stated,
to the disarmament proposal of Sen
ator Bosah, Republican, Idaho. Re-
publican and Democr;i .ic leaders, how
ever, joined in private predictions that
the Borsh resolution, requesting tho
president to call naval disarmament
conference of representatives of the
United States, Great Britain and japan
would be adopted by the senate, either
din the form of a separate resolution
or as a rider to the appropriation bill.
Senator Borah is understood to favor
the latter course.
The appropriation bill was presented
formally during the day in the senate.
As reported it carried $496, 100000,
against s395,O00.O00 voted by the
house.

Estimates That Proposed Tax Cuts
Would Decrease Federal Revenues
$3.50, 900, oo0, but Loss Would Be

Representative Longworth, Ohio, Re
publican member of the ways and
means committee. He said he did not
expect action on 1t until the coming

porations and would levy an addition
al tax of per cent on such incomes.
Reduction of surfaces on higher in
comes from "A 20 per cent to 40 per
cent maximum also is proposed
Mr.. Longworth estimated that the
proposed tax cuts would decrease fed
eral revenues approximately $500, OO0,-
COO year, but he said the proposed
D per cent tax on incomes of corpora
tons would yield at least $450,000, 900,
and that the remaining loss would be
made up in Increased customs reve-
nues resulting from new tariff sched-
ules. He said he intended to reintro-
duce 1t at the special session.
The bill, he added. provides no new
principle of taxation such as levies on
sales and undistributed profits of cor
porations.
Provision is made for final settle

mated now total more than S1,2500OO,-

PLAN ALTERATION
Of SEVRES TREATY
NEAR EAST CONFERENCE FAvoRs
CHANGES AFFECTING GREEK
AND TURK.
Turkey to Get More Territory as Re
suit Of Agreement Reached Between
British and French Premiers,
Following Conference.

| London.-Revision of the treaty OF
/ Sevres, so as to give Turkey addi
tional territory in Thrace, now occu
pied by the Greeks, was decided upon
by Mr.. Lloyd George and Nj. BRAND
on February 81, in consultations pre-
ceding the near east conference here
This decision, before becoming effec-
tive, however, requires the approval OF
the allied colleagues of the French
premier and the British prime min
lister.
According to this Franco-British
agreement, the frontier line in Thrace
from Enos on the Aegean to Midia on
Greece one-fourth of the territory she
now occupies there and add it to the
Constantinople district.
The Turks also, under this arrange
ment, are to be allowed representation
on the international commission con-
trolling Constantinople.
1t is understood that Mr.. Lloyd
George and NJ Briahd agreed that the
Greek question might be settled
speedier than had been thought.
The plan for the administration of
the Smyrna district formulated by
Premiers Lloyd George and BRAND at
this conference provides for the
creation Of semi-autonomous pro-
vince in this territory, now occupied
by the Greeks.
Turkey would retain civil and mill
tary control, but under Christian gov
errors approved by the allies. This,
1t is considered. would guarantee the
safety of the Greek interests.
The plan contemplates placing the
judiciary and finances under an inter-
rational commission, with the gendar-
merle composed of both Greeks and
Turks. The first governor would be
appointed for a term of five years, the
appointee to be subject to approval by
the allies.
