the tariff bill subject to indefinite
delay, possibly until the winter

Other features of the reported
program propose delay on the ad-

Senate bills slated for passage
before q recess are the agricultural

changes recommended recently by
the treasury department and rush
the bill through, leaving most 9TH

posed adjournment period.
The president, it was said, eX-

Cleveland, July 27.-In a sched-
uled 12-round no decision contest
here tonight between Bryan Dow
ney of Cleveland and Johnny Will
son, champion middleweight, Ref
cree Jimmy Gardner of Boston gave
the decision to Wilson in the
seventh round on a foul.
Wilson had been knocked down
three times in this round and Gard
ner had counted seven on the third
knockdown when he claimed Dow
ney struck Wilson while he was
down and gave the decision to Will
son.
A small sized riot followed the
decision.
Downey had knocked Wilson
down in the third round for count
of two.
j. B. Wilber6ing, chairman of
the Cleveland boxing commission,
announced that the commission
gave the fight to Downey on
knockout, Wilberding said that
the official time of the knock
down in the seventh round was Is
seconds and the second knock
down was 13 seconds, and that If
a foul was committed it was by
Wilson's manager jumping into the
ring while the count was going on.
Gardner was chosen referee only
after Wilson had refused to 60 into
the ring unless he was selected as
the third man.
In the afternoon Managers of
both boxers had agreed to abide
by the rules of the boxing com
mission, which provide that a ref
cree with an Ohio license must par
ticipate. Upon receipt of Wilson'S
ultimatum, Downey's manager
agreed to Gardner.
Chairman Wilberding announced
before the bout that the boxing
commission suspended its rule that
only local referees officiate in
bouts here and consented to Gard
ner, adding that If the fight was
not conducted satisfactorily the
commission would stop it.
Approximately 100 spectators
jumped into the ring after the box
ers went to their corners after the
seventh round. Police had diff
Guilty in clearing the ring and
many blows were struck. Referee
Gardner was hit twice.

"Minor Nuisance" Taxes,
Such As On Soda Water,
Also Contemplated.

Washington, July 27.-Hopes of
administration leaders that the tax
revision bill can be put through the
house in time for a recess of con-
gress by mid-August, apparently
found little reflection today in the
house ways and means committee.
which plugged away at public
hearings on the measure with two
days more allotted to witnesses.
Chairman Fordney estimated
that two weeks would be required
for the drafting of the bill after
treasury and internal revenue bu-
reau experts have presented their
final recommendation at execu-
tive sessions planned for two days
of next week. Under this program
the measure would reach the house
about August Is.
Few New Suggestions.
Few new suggestions on tax re-
vision have been offered by wit
nesses, leaving the administration
plan as a principal recommenda-
ton before the committee. This
contemplates:
Repeal of the excess profits tax
and making good the loss of reve-
nue. by modified tax on corporate
profits, or a flat additional income
tax on corporations and the repeal
of the $4,000 exemption applicable
to corporations, to yield an aggre-
gate revenue of from $400,000.000
to 100000 annually.
Reimbursement of the income tax
rates to a maximum combined nor
NAL and surtax of 40 per cent and
the imposition of sufficient new or
additional taxes of wide applica-
tion to bring the revenues up to
$4,000, 100000 a year.
Repeal of the minor nuisance"
taxes, such as the tax on soda
water.
Postage Rates Increase.
The suggestion put forward that
first -class postage rates be in
creased to three cents got into the
committee hearing today without
indication, however, that 1t had as
yet been given serious considera-
tion by the members. Postmaster
General HAYES estimated that the
three-cent postage would yield be-
tween s75,000,000 and $S0,000,000
annually, and he said today that
department studies were being in
stituted on which a report and rec
ommendation would be given the
committee.
Most testimony today had to do
with a shifting of the tax burden,
although organized labor, through
its spokesman, Joined with farmers

the senate.
Drafted in Secret.
The Kellogg bill, Senator Norris
said. was drafted under "myste-
rious, secret" circumstances.
The Kellogg bill. he said, was
changed, by elimination of original
provisions authorizing the war fl
nance corporation to take over
railroad debt funding,
But the president forgot to
change his message and left the
railroads in" he continued. adding
that the bill had to be changed, to
bring some senators into line,
Senator Norris, referring to Sem
ator Kellogg as "a horny flsted
son of the SOIL" declared that the
Minnesota senator was selected to
sponsor the measure because he
came from an agricultural state.
Secretary Mellon opposed the Nor
ris bill. the senator said, and
could not help it because he al
ways has seen through the same
glasses, seeing banks. bankers.

New Substitute Bill.
Support was given the kellogg
substitute, however. by Senator
Simmons democrat, North Caro-
lima. Other support came from
within the agricultural "bloc" and
the agricultural committee. The
committee, of which Senator Norris
is chairman, today empowered

said, agreed to recommend a bill

Washington, July ~ (By the
Associated Press. )-Japan's defi-
mite acceptance of a place In the
disarmament conference, which
reached the state department to-
day, gives consent to a discussion
of Far Eastern questions in connec-
ton with the conference but sugS
gests that problems which concern
only particular powers or which
can be regarded as closed incidents
be omitted.
There was every evidence of safe
isfaction over the reply in Official
circles and it was indicated that
the way now was regarded as clear
for the preliminary negotiations
which will fix the time and place
of meeting and details of proce-
dure.
Conference Program.
A comprehensive consideration
of the conference program before
the delegates assemble also was
suggested in the Japanese note and
now is regarded as assured. Tho
attitude of officials here has been
that such a discussion would be in
place once all the invited powers
had accepted invitations.
A portion of the japanese reply
which attracted attention was a
paragraph declaring it the sense OF
Japan that during the conference
problems such as are of sole con-
cern to particular powers or such
matters that may be regarded ac-
complished facts should be scrup-
ulously avoided"
Forecast OF Attitude.
1t was made plain, however, that
officials here regarded this state
ment not as condition of accept
ance by Japan but as a forecast of
the attitude she will take on the
conference program.
1t Is pointed out that Japan
agrees to a discussion of such SUBJ
jects as may be regarded as bear
ing directly on disarmament ap4
says that she is willing to taiN
about Pacific and Far Eastern q,iesa
ttons. 1t is suggested that some
questions which might otherwise
affect only two or three powers
will readily find place in the cat
egory which the Toxic government
has accepted.
1t was recalled here in connec-
ton with the japanese reference
to such matters that may be re-
garded accomplished facts" that
the Japanese ambassador at Lon
don recently indicated that his gov
ernment would not care to discuss
questions like Shantung and Yap
because it regarded them as hav-
ing been settled by the treaty OF
Versailles. In other quarters. how
ever, 1t has been pointed out that
the Versailles treaty is not recog-
nized by China so far as Shantung
is concerned and that the United
States has not consented to the
treaty's terms on Yap and other
mandate territories so that in each
case an open question Is raised

ther prolonged discussion to the
British governments proposals rel

A communication from Eamonn

Birkcnhead's Speech.
Even more interesting. however,

house Of lords, intimating that the
government anticipates that the
negotiations may last for weeks
and inviting the parliament and
the country to have patience with
the difficulties de Valera and his
colleagues may be experiencing in
Dublin. He reproved rebellious
unionists in the coalition who de-

as shameful and humiliating.
The lord chancellor probably had
these unionists in mind when he
added that in the event. of an Irish

lament refusing to accept it, the
