The women of New York City do not
seem to be seriously interested over par
ticipation In local politics. so few of them
have announced their candidacy for office.
However, two have been nominated for
county register, a post which the male
bosses of both parties agreed could be
filed acceptably by a woman. The Re-
publican candidate Is Miss Helen Var
lex Boswell and the Tammany aspirant
is Miss Annie Mathews.
Alas, there is a New York man who
bitterly opposes the idea of a woman even
in that job, so he is running in both the
Republican and the Democratic primaries
for register. His name is John ]. Hop
per, who says he can consolidate an all
man prejudice against women candi-
dates. Mrs. Margaret Douglas Is another
woman who has entered in the Repub-
lican primaries tor the nomination OF
county clerk against the man picked by
the leaders. Then Mrs. Mabel T. s.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-Reje lection OF
the Mellon recommendations on tax re-
vision by the Senate Finance Committee
in favor of decisions reached by the
House, now appear probable. On the re-
peal of the higher surtaxes, Senator Pen
rose of Pennsylvania, chairman. an
nounced yesterday that the committee al
ready had agreed to make this change
effective Jan. 1, of next year, as decided
by the House contrary to the recommen-
dations of the Secretary of the Treasury.
The committee also agreed to repeal sur
taxes above 80 per cent instead of % per
cent, he said.
Changes in the normal income tax rate
including an increase in the exemption
for married men receiving an income of
$1,000 or less from $1,000 to $500 and
in the exemption for dependents from
5000 to $500 as provided in the revenue
revision bill as passed by the House, were
also agreed upon by the Senate commit
tee Mr. Penrose announced. The com
mittee will vote on the bill and amend
ments including the date of the repeal Of
the excess profits tax on Friday, MT
Penrose said, and before Congress re-
eonvenes a week from Wednesday, the
measure will be prepared for consider
alton in the Senate.
In view of the decisions reached by
the committee, the prediction was made
that the committee again would concur
in the decision of the House to repeal
the excess profits tax Jan. 1 of next
year instead of Jan. of this year, as
proposed by Mr.. Mellon. Whether or
not the Senate committee concurs in the
decision of the House to repeal the trans
portation taxes depends upon the effect
of the repeal of the excess profits and
surtaxes. The same is true as regards
the amount of increase in the fiat cor
roration tax. Mr.. Penrose said those
matters were now in the hands of ex-
perts who would submit necessary data
to the committee within a few days. The
committee will lold night sessions, he
said, if necessary to complete considera-
ton of ttfe revenue revision bill before
Sept. p.
The committee also agreed to the 90
called net loss provision adopted by the
House, the Senator annOunced.-Cony-
right, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

OF the Emergency Fleet Corporation who
began his career as a boy with the NAL

passed through every stage Of the ship
ping industry in managerial capacities.
Another instructor will be A. H. Haag

Discussing the new shipping course, DR..
MacElwee said to the Indiana Daily
Times and Public Ledger correspondent:
1T is often said the United States can
not hope to compete successfully with
the British Mercantile Marine because of
Britishers centuries of experience and
tradition as trans-oceanic carriers We
cannot, of course, begin where the British
began. We must do our best to operate
as soon as possible on terms of equality.
That, 1t seems to be Georgetown Univer-
sity can most effectively achieve by
systematic instruction in the fundamen-
tails of shipping in all it's varied branches
We shall teach in other words what the
British have done and how they did It,.
1t is ignorance of basic principles that is
responsible, to large degree, for the in
ability of Americans to attain that emin-
ence in the world shipping trade which
it is easily within our power to reach.
Capital alone viii not suffice. If America
had had a West Point or an Annapolis o.
shipping in operation for years before
the war, we would have been ready TO
meet the shipping emergencies Of the
situation with far greater skill than we
did and at incaleulable money saving to
the country. 1t Is in the hope Of educa-
ting and breeding a race Of American
shipping experts that Georgetown's new
venture has been instituted. "-Copyrigh

has failed to appropriate sufficient funds
to carry out the law which provides uni

boards to the cut rate spectators in or

Now, what's that?" was the identical
question asked of the writer by Lord
Bryce and Lord Northcliffe on different
ships, when coming out of the Narrows
before entering the upper bay. Each dis
unguished visitor, standing on the deck
OF his respective liner, pointed at the
twelve red painted piers projecting into
the harbor from the Staten Island shore

Woefully inadequate answers were given.
But we registered a vow to know more
about the great water improvement. Hence
our trip to Staten Island. The next dis
tinguished visitor who asks, Now, what's
that?" will be told.
The construction of the twelve con-
crete piers is the outstanding accom-
plishment of the Hylan administration
and as a dock Improvement constitutes
tremendous Advancement for New York
City. In fact, the dozen piers are the
finest and most up-to date In the world
