GREAT BRITAIN
WILL GIVE UP
WEI-HEI-WEI
Sentiment Strongly FavOrs
Any Reasonable Step TO
Give China Status.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1s-Great Brit
aims policy toward China was outlined
officially today as embOdying a desire
on the part Of the British government
to do everything in its power for the
rehabilitation of China and to assist the
latter in taking her proper place in the
commercial life of the nations Of the
world.
The representatives OF Great Britain
at the conference, it was stated. believed
that the maintenance of the "open door
is the best way of creating commercial
prosperity and they will urge the adop.
ton of a policy of international CO.
operation for the benefit of China.
The official impression was given that
Great Britain would be willing to
sacrifice Wei Hei-Wei. but it was clearly
indicated that Hong Kong is regarded as
having a separate status"
Concerning the question Of extra ter
ritOrial rights, it was pointed out that
Great Britain had entered into a treaty
with China eighteen years ago in which
she agreed TO discontinue her courts in
China when guarantees were given that
the Chinese ministry of justice was COIL
petent 10 give proper treatment TO British
nationals. thereby taking the same view
now advanced by the French.
Any special rights which Great Britain
possess now in China will be dealt with
for the general well being" not only
Of China but Of the whole world, 1t was
stated.

and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
WASHINGTON, Nov 1s.-The House
rejected late yesterday President Hard
ing's proposal for a compromise on the
| surtax schedule of the revenue revision
bill and agreed to the Senate provision
fixing so per cent as the limit Of taxation
on higher incomes by a vote Of POI to
173. The action followed presentation to
the House of a letter from President
Harding urging members not to concur
In the Senate proposal.
It was the first time since President
Harding was inaugurated that the
House acted in opposition to his di-
rect appeal. His letter was written at
the instance OF Representatives Fordney
of Michigan, chairman of the House
Ways and Means COMMITTEES, and Mon
dell Of Wyoming, Republican leaders
who sought the Presidents influence in
an effort to keep Western Republicans
In line. The vote showed ninety -four
Republicans with few exceptions from
Western States votL with the Demo
Gratis to sustain the Senate proposal for
maximum surtax Of so per cent on in
comes Of 100000 or over.
When the revenue revision bill passed
the House, the effort to retain the pres
ent schedule Of surfaces failed and the
bill was passed carrying a maximum
surtax rate Of 80 per cent on incomes of
S6S,000 or more.
The action Of the House binds the con-
ferees on the revenue revision bill to
accede to the Senate proposal on sur
taxes, thus clearing up the outstanding
controversy on this measure between the
two houses. 1t is expected to so ia
cilitate consideration of the bill so as to
bring about its passage within another
week.
By raising the limit of surfaces from
90 per cent to so per cent 100000 900
is added to the revenue from this source,
according to experts. As q result, Mr.
F0rdney announced he would seek an
agreement on a fiat corporation tax Of
12H per cent as proposed by the House
as against the Is per cent tax adopted
by the Senate. This would cut $3.50, 0O0,-
600 from corporation tax
SEE INDUSTRY
BADLY HURT.
Messrs. Fordney. Monden and Long
worth Of Ohio offered vigorous opposi
ton to the Senate proposal, declaring
it would kill the goose that laid the
golden egg" UNFOLDING the Presidents
position, they claimed the surfaces pro
posed would drive capital out of pro-
duetive industry and into tax-exemI
security.
Western Republicans, including Rep.
resentatives Frear of wisconsin, Little
Of Kansas and Dickinson OF Iowa. Joined
with the Democrats in asserting higher
incomes should be subjected to high
taxes. They did not heed the warning
Of Republican leaders who declared these
taxes would not be productive of revenue
and would prove a burden to the poor.
