prevailed for a time, then horror,
then dfgmay aud numerous taxicaIbs,
laden with suitcases, valiseS and par

leave Yonkers for New York City.
In the meantime patrol wagons and
trucks were drawing up at Police

By AMBROSE LAMBERT.

RIGA. Aug. 14.-In their neRotia-
tions with Walter Lyman Brown,
head of the American Relief Admin
tstration in Europe. the agents of
the Soviets have agreed to provide
kitchens to cook the food to be sent
70 the relief of the Russian famine,
though they confess to a shortage
which may have to be supplied.
The Soviets also agreed to provide
buildings. fuel. residences. and the
cost of local administration, pri-
ority for free relief kilograms,
gasoline and oil for motor trans
port, frontier rights. including no
search, free imports and exports,
and immunity of supplies from re-

The interesting point is that the
agreement strictly insists on non-

NEW YORK, Aug. l4.-Chairman
Albert d. Lasker. of the United
States Shipping Board. blew the lid
off the governments side Of the
controversy with the United States
Nail Steamship Line, with a sensa-
Ional statement at his quarters in
q local hotel this afternoon.
Until Lasker invited the press to
come and get the statement, the
Shipping board had refused anr
statement beyond the ceur' proceed
ings in the involved legal tangle
which followed the seizure of five
Ct Americas finest passenger ships
along the New York waterfront on
July %. Subsequently four other
vessels allocated to the Mail Line
under Shipping Board charters, also
were seized.

mary of the Shipping Boards an

why Lasker decided to seize the
ships.
'on July 22 We knew the United
States Mail Line was insolvent and
the action was taken because We
felt we were not justified in per-
mitting innocent creditors to be
further duped," said Lasker.
Insolvency Of the Mail Line en-
aangered the existence OF the only
American passenger fleet on the
North Atlantic capable of compet-
ing with esta blishel European lines,
and threatened to pile up further
large charges. which the Shipping
Beard in the end would have &c

Postmaster General VIII Hays,
should he appear to have the active
support of publishers generally
throughout the country, might
recommend repeal or at least re-
vamping of thOse laws on the
statute books which tend to limit

Hays has just restored the sec

LEADERS SEEKING
VOTE BY SATURDAY
ON REVENUE BILL
Fordney to Submit Meas
ure to Republican
Caucus Today.

The administrators movement to
reduce the peoples tax burden will
find definite expression this week
when the new revenue bill will be
presented TO the House by the Ways
and Means Committee.
Chairman Fordney will submit the
bill in completed form to the Repub-
lican caucus today. After II Is
formally reported to the House, dis
cussion on the measure is expected
to begin Wednesday. Leaders hope
a vote on the bill may be taken by
Saturday.
VIII Raise Three Billion.
AS finally approved. the revenue
bill is designed to raise approx
niately $4,000, 900. .ooe.
Republicans on the Ways and
Means Committee do not look for
material opposition during the
House debate nor do they expect
any radical amendments to be added.
The cause of the initial protests
the complaint that the wealthy
were having their taxes lowered
while the average mans burden
remained the same-has been re-
moved. the Republicans say.
Benefits to rich individuals and
corporations. gained from the repeal
of the excess profits taxes and some
of the higher surtaxes, are counter
balanced, they point out. by in.
creased exemptions on moderate in.
comes. the repeal of the transpor.
tation taxes and many stamp taxes
and the shifting of the burden. In
many cases from consumer to manu-.
facturer.
Demand Further Economy.
The $500, 900, 900 reduction effected
in the new tax program suggests
of course, the various methods
which must be employed TO cut
government expenditures and tn.
demand for further economy Is ex,
pected to meet frequent expression
during the Congressional debate
The, Senate this week will have
las lunfinfshed business Senator
Borah's bill providing free tolls for
American ships passing through the
Panama Canal. Borah will seek an
early vote on the measure, which
finds the administration in a peculiar
position President Harding has
said he favored the tolls exemption.
but fears that some embarrassment
may be caused. on the eve of the
armament conference, If the bill is
aired In Congress. The President
has indicated he would prefer to
settle the subject through diplo-
matte channels. Borah. however,
will press for action on his bill.
The Senate also Is expected to
consider the bill approprfatins sts,-
100000 for the Shipping Board. This
proposal opens the way for debate
on Americas merchant marine policy
in general and the shipping Board
In particular. Several Senators are
expected to take ready advantage
OF this opportunity, for there has
been growing opposition to many
phases Of the national martins
policy.
