chief justice of the United States su- preme court Is it right then to deny to railway employees the same legal rights that are conceded to every other class of labor?
 Wherein is there justification -.l~ a demand that proposes to compel trans portation employees to work under un- satisfactory conditions that does not in- clude every other class of employers and employees?
 "The plain fact of the matter Is that the railway organizations have obeyed the labor sections of the transportation act; they have literally obeyed every one of it's provisions, and if they leave the service because of their dissatis- faction with the award of July 1st they are not in violation of the law but in full accord with every one of it's re- quirements. They have a right to re- fuse service that Is equal to the rail- way right to refuse to accept the pro- visions of an award.
 That in many instances the rail ways have not obeyed the provisions ot the law cannot be questioned. The attt ] tude of many of the railroads has beer | of agreement with the decisions of the | board answered their purpose and dis agreement when they did not suit. I'm | roads have Haunted the inDotency O | the board 10 enforce it's decision in it' | face but there has been no public de mand T g the railroads be forced tt 1 obey tht orders of the board. Onl!
 this week the board heard reasons iron i the Pennsylvania why it did not agre
 with the rulings of the board This wa but one instance where the railroad have used their own judgment in ac
 certing it's awards. The attitude of tn
 roads at best has been that of insolen l indifference while the organization
 have 'obeyed the spirit and letter of tn law and if they leave the service 1t wi
 not be in violation of the fact. Do tn friends of teeth in the law" for em ployes expect that there will not be al equally powerful set of teeth for tn ! raj roads?
 "If the advocates of 2 law with teet' are consistent, let every ore of then demand a law for the regulation of hi
 own business that will establish tn
 same relations between himself and hi
 employees he demands for railway err Iploves. Forced service win never b
 satisfactory nor efficient"

FIGHT OVER INCOME SUR-TAX
 RATES OPENS IN THE SENATE
Republican Leaders Are Confident That the Compromise Plan For Maximum Rate of so Per Cent Will Be Adopted Hurry Call Has Been Sent Out to Absent Republican Senators to Return to Washington.

Washington, Oct. 21-The long threat ened fight over the income sur-tsx rates to be written into the new revenue law broke today in the senate. but despite sizea.ble opposition, republican leaders expressed confidence that the compromise plan embodying a maximum rate of 50 Ter cent. would be adopted, probably be- fore adjournment tomorrow evening.
 Meantime. as a result of the defea. yesterday of the proposal to exempt from taxation income of foreign traders an,i foreign trade corporations received from sources outside of the United States. the majority leaders sent out a hurry call to absent republican senators to return to Washington. The can was in a letter signed by enator Lodge chairman of the republican conference, and enatoSr Cur tis, vice chairman and republican whk. It said:
 We regret to inform you that there were nineteen republican senators ab- sent from the senate on yesterday, when there were important amendments to be voted upon. We hope you will arrange your affairs so as to be n attendance at the daily sessions of the senate, as ths amendments to the revenue bill are very important and every republican should be present so that this measure may be act ed upon as soon as possible"
 The absence of republican senators was commented upon in the senate by Chair man Penrose of the finance committee, in charge of the revenue bill.
 Questions of paramount importance are being disposed of here while re- publicans are absent and indifferent" h, said T want to call the attention oi the country to it. It will meet with com. ment and condemnation"
 Senator Hitchcock called attention tha eleven republicans joined with the demo crats in defeating the committee amend. ment yesterday, while Senator Simmons democrat, North Carolina. said only 1 sixteen republicans were absent and no I voting, while twelve democrats also wer, absent and not voting
 While defeated in the first sllirmisl over amendment explained as designed t aid American concerns in competin: with foreign rivals for overseas trade | Chairman Penrose said today an effor would be made later to get a provision i' nthe bill to protect those concerns, partic ularly those doing business in the Phil 1 ippines and in China
 Only few senators desiring to discus the income sur-taX rates got the o7por | tunity today before the senate recessed.
 Senator Simmons told the senate tha

since the compromise amendment was very similar to one he had offered. he would not offer any objection to its ad- dition. Other democrats. however. ooen< ed a fight on the compromise, Senator Hitchcock proposing an amend5hent un- der which the rates on incomes in excess of s1OO.OO0 would be the same as thoss in existing law. Senator Jones contend ed that if rates were to be lowered on large incomes they also should be lower ed on incomes below s5.Oo0.
 Senator McCumber, one of the floor managers of the revision bill. announced that while he favored the original pro- posal for a minimum sur-tax rate of 52 per cent, he would not offer serious ob- jection to the compr omise agreement for 50 per cent rate.
 Before getting to the sur-tax provision the senate approved Q normal income Nnc rate of 4 per cent. after long discus sion in which the treasury experts who assisted the committee in drafting that bill were attacked and defended. Ap- proval was given. however. with an un-' derstanding that this section would bs open to amendment later, as several sen- ators said they wanted to offer amend- ments reducing the rate on incomes below s5 900.
 Senator Townsend started the discus- sion about the experts with the declara- | tion that there was ''too much expert | language in the bill" with the result that the ordinary taxpayer would never be able to understand it. Senator Moses declared that the experts had become a. group of 'super-senators' who wrote the tax laws.
 There was only one roll call today in | the six and half hours the senate de- voted to the bill. This resulted in the addition. A to 2s. of an amendment ap- proved by the finance committee repub- licans defining reorganization of corpora- tions. Democrats opposing the provision ] said that under it corporations absorbing others at a gain would be exempt from taxation on that gain and that it also would permit of the watering of cor poration stock.
 Without objection, the senate adopted a committee amendment providing that i. a taxpayer derives a ne. gain through l the sale of capital assets only 70 per cent. of such net gain shall be taken into account on the determining the amount
 of the taxpayers net income. Another
 amendment described capital assets as
 property acquired and held by 8 taxpayer
 for mroe than two years for profit or in-
 vestment, whether or not connected with
 his trade or business.
