Most Oppose Smoot Bill.
The SmOot manufacturers tax was
discussed at the conference, but there
was not unanimity as to its advisable
ity, some of the conferees said al
though a majority were represented as
opposed to the Smoot plan.
Democratic leaders were more hope
full than ever of getting through the
more important of the amendments to
the pending bill which they have given
notice they will offer
Senator Robinson (Dem.) of Arkan-
Sas, in an address in the senate, said
was dead in the hands of it's former
friends. Virtually all the Democratic
demands, it seems, are to be incorpo-
rated into the bill, as the Republicans
have heard mutterings of coming
storm"
The SmOOt manufacturers sales tax
plan drew fire from Senator LenrooOt,
Republican, Wisconsin.
In cases where the proposed per
Gent tax could not be passed on to the
customer, Senator LenrOot said, it
would add to the already heavy bur-
liens of manufacturers now operating
without profit to give employment to
labor, and If it could be shifted to the
consumer it would be subject to the
same criticism as is the excess profits
tax. i'm that each dealer handling the
goods would charge the ultimate con-
sumner commission for collecting the
tax.

NEWARK ROAD

Farmer at Odds With Pole
Companies Acted With
out Orders
WIRES GO UP
ON OTHER LAND

Automobiles arriving here this
morning from Newark reported that
william G. Little, a farmer OF near
Newark. had informed them that
the Lincoln Highway, or that portion
of the highway now under course OF
construction. is to be closed and that
they would have to detour to Ogle-
town or to the Pixies Greek road.
a distance OF FIVE miles County En-
gineer Charles Grubb. however. said
no orders closing the road had been
issued by his department at this
time, although such a course would
have to be taken when the actual
work was started on the unfinished
portion OF the road.
Mr. Little. who is employed by
the county as an inspector on the
road. recently served notice on the
Wilmington and Philadelphia Trac-
tion Company and the Western
Union Telegraph Company that they
could not erect their pole lines on
his property or on the Lincoln High
way passing through his lands
AS a result OF this edict the work
OF transferring the present pole lines
along the old roadway to the new
lines OF the highway has been de-
layed and the county has not yet
started to construct the short stretch
OF roadway which will pass through
Mr.. Littles property. Workmen in
the employ Of the two pole
line companies were at work thi,
morning resetting four poles alonl
the old roadway IN lands not con.
trolled by Mr.. Little.
As a result OF the controversy
over the placing OF the poles, the
/ contractor al work on the new high
/ way Is being delayed in his work.
The statement that the roadwa!
was TO be closed at this time cause,
much comment among automobilist
using the road between here an
Newark. II was said that to detou
by way OF Ogletown meant that
dirt road OF FIVE miles would have Il
be traversed. The detour OF Pike
Creek road meant a two-mile driv
over dirt road and a hilly one a
that.
with the roadway being closed OF
Saturday and Sunday as MIR. Littl'
had said would be done, II mean
that the heavy weekend traffic oil
the road would be hard hit.
County Engineer Grubb when in
formed that Mr.. Little was issuini
orders relative to the closing OF tn
highway. said that no such order
should have been issued and he wen
to the scene to see why the order
had been issued.
