SUNSHADES FOR LUCKY DOGS
Innovation That Was Brought About
by the Protracted Spell of IN
usually Hot Weather.


One of the quaintest Innovations of
the recent heat wave in London was
the Introduction of sunshades for
dogs. These consisted of light crepe
decline projections suspended over
the animals necks by light wire
strands.
The lucky animals whose masters
or mistresses bought the sunshades
did not seem so pleased with them as
perhaps the donors had hoped, re-
marked London Answers.
One dog found the heat so oppres-
sive that he sought the shelter Of a
railway tunnel on the Highbury tube.
Here he was, however, so frightened
by the continual passing of trains
that he shrank into a dark corner and
remained there for two days until
his master, oil the information of a
railway man, fetched him.
Although sunshades for dogs made
their first appearance, there was a
strange absence of the straw hats
thut horses used to wear before the
war. Have horses been so hardened
by the great campaign that they do
not need the consideration that dogs
get?

that, even when cats were closely as

true diphtheria bacillus could not be

to infect cats with human diphtheria,
but had failed. Thus is another COM

Lifeboat Made Of Basket-Work

A basket-work lifeboat seems very
frail and delicate for the hard work
of getting through rough seas to a
ship in distress, yet boat of this type
has just been invented, and it is
claimed that it gives greater safety.
than the usual kind.
The wooden framework of the boat
is covered with a cork lining, and
over that is laid an outer cover of
woven cane. It is said that the new
boat floats better than the boats now
in use,- and that it impossible for it
to sink.
The basket lifeboat is so light and
springy that it is less likely to be
crushed by swinging against the side
Of ship or by the buffeting Of the
waves.

Hard foods Are a necessary part OF

SEWING Wood.

There has appeared in this country
recently a special plywood material
for aircraft construction.
This new material must not be con-
fused with ordinary plywood, which is
glued together. It is claimed to be a
super-plywood, and is actually sewn
together!
First. the layers are cemented to-
gether with waterproof material and
then stitched through in parallel rows
about one and a quarter inches apart.
This gives a rigidity and residence not
to be attained by any other method.
Weight for weight, it is the strongest
material yet invented. 1t is made in
sheets of any size or shape up to eight
feet wide by SO feet long and from
one eighth Of an inch to ve-eighths OF
an inch thick, thus doing away with

Changes in Tax Bill Proposed
BY the Democrats and the
"Agrarian Bloc"
GENERAL WOOD IS RETIRED
President Asks Local Cooperation in
Relieving Unemployment Conditions
-Premiers BRAND and Lloyd
George May Attend the Great
Conference in Washington.
BY EDWARD w. PlckARD.

The peril that resides in 0verWhelm-
ing majorities, always recognized by
politicians, is being demonstrated
again to the Republicans in congress
in the case Of the tax bill. The senate
Republicans have been split up into
several groups that SO far have been
unable to agree on the changes to be
made ia the measure as passed by the
house, and the Democratic minority,
consequently, is hopeful of carrying
out its program. The main features
of this are:
A higher surtax rate than 80 per
cent to affect incomes in excess of
100000.
A graduated corporation income tax
in place of the proposed Is per cent
rate.
Retention Of the corporation capital
stock tax.
Repeal of the freight, passenger and
Pullman transportation taxes and Of
the $4,000 exemption allowed to cor
porations.
Decreased normal income tax rates
on incomes of $15,0 900 or less.
Senators Mccormick, Capper, Len
root and others Of the so called
agrarian bloc, together with number
of other Republicans, have been work
fng hard to devise a program that will
be acceptable to a majority of the
senate, and the one they have drawn
up tentatively includes the following
changes:
A graduated corporation income
tax instead of a flat tax as substi-
.fute for the excess profits tax.
f7drther reduction in the lower sur
FAX rates on individual incomes, but
aan Increase from the 30 per cent MAXI
mum in the bill to so per cent. which
represents a compromise between the
proposed maximum and the rate Of
G5 per cent present law.
Retention of the corporation cap
EtaI stock tax which is repealed in the
senate committee bill.
An increase in the higher rates of
estate taxes.
Repeal of the taxes on freight, pas
eenger, and express transportation.
Senator Smoot 6f Utah and few
others are advocating 3 per cent
production or manufacturers sales
tax, but the group above mentioned
IS opposed to this, and SO is Repre-
sentative Mondell, Republican leader
of the house. who, after a conference
with President Harding, asserted there
was no chance that the house would
accept anything of the nature of
general sales tax.

Last week the President let it be
known that he wished congress to go
ahead with its legislative program
without thought Of an early adjourn
p cnt There had been some anxiety
in washington lest the deliberations
of the conference on limitation of
armaments might be disturbed by the
doings of congress if it were in session
after November II, but Mr.. Harding
is not at all worried by this. The tax
bill is holding up all business in the
senate except the treaties and the
canal tolls bill. The treaties are to
be voted on October IA and the canal
measure comes to a vote on October
10. If President Harding's preference
IS considered, the tariff bill will be
taken up before adjournment, though
many members of congress seem will
ing that it should go over to the next
session.
