New Administration
Backs Wilson's on
Western Union Cable

WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE
government today appealed to the
supreme court from the opinion of
the New York circuit court of ap-
peals which granted an injunction
to prevent government officials from
interfering with the landing of the
Western Union cable at Miami,
Fla
Because of the Importance of the
case the government will ask that
the arguments on it be advanced so
that an early decision may be OBJ
tanned.
The action today indicates that
the Harding administration will
back the policy of former President
Wilson against landing of the cable
as the appeal today was taken with
the approval Of Attorney General
Daugherty.
The Western Union obtained the
injunction in the district court of
Judge Hand of New York, and his
decision was affirmed by the circuit
court The injunction, however. Is
not effective until the appeal is
disposed of.

PRESIDENT LIKELY
To URGE REVENUE
LEGISLATION FIRST

WASHINGTON, March 17.-Presi-
congressional leaders desire that
congress take up revenue legisla
ton ahead of the tariff, it was
learned today. ...7
Republican leaders had tentatively
decided to enact an anti-dumplng
bill or emergency tariff, take up
revenue legislation and then start
permanent tariff revision.
That this program does not en-,
tirely suit the president developed
when western members of the house
ways and means committee started a
campaign to get tariff legislation
first on the list and planned to take
their case to the White House in a
body.
day. When no appointment was
made for them, 1t was learned that
Mr.. Harding already has talked in
formally with one man and plans to
talk to the others in the same way.
President Harding, the congress-
men say, wants to sound them out
and informally state to them his
reasons for believing that revenue
legislation is most important at this
time. Apparently he believes he can
talk more effectually to them in
dividually than he can to a delega-
ton.
In this way, the president appar-
entity hopes to win over the western
ers to the view that the agricultural
and industrial welfare depends on
early revenue revision, something
which the house and senate leaders
have been unable to do UP to this
time.
The western congressman declare
that duties on farm products are
necessary if the farmers are to be
saved from ruin by slumping prices.
Mr.. Harding's advisers have fore
seen that he might have to decide
between demands of farmers and
business men and have sought to
place the decision with congress
ding apparently has had to step in
because the two sets of demands
have divided both house and senate
into factions.
The president pledged himself dur
ing the campaign to recommend
but otherwise he is not bound to
any taxation program. Because of
this fact interest is growing in
whit he may say concerning taxa
ton in his special message to con-
gress. He has not yet begun the
but his cabinet officers are framing
recommendations which will be sub
mitted to him. 1t is practically GER
tain that Secretary of the Treasury
Mellon, will recommend repeal of
the excess profits tax and scaling
rates on big incomes. Another indi-
cation of what will go into Mr..
Harding's message was seen in the
fact that Postmaster General Hays

Columbia Is Stirred

were taken to clarity the murlay at

adopted demanding of the police de-
partment monthly reports on places
doing business under license and vio-
lating city ordinances, particularly
in respect to immortality and selling
liquor, with a view of withdrawing
those licenses.
The matter came up from the eX-
pose of the taxi company, the license
of which was revoked last week be-
cause of protests of Shandon citizens
that the company was operating an
alleged diSreputable house in that
section. On injunction proceedings
the matter was threshed out before
Judge w. H. Townsend last Satur-
day, at which time many affidavits
were filed alleging gross immortality
against the company and it's agents.
These affidavits were supplemented
today by oral testimony of like char
acter, charging that the company
was supplying young women for i'm
moral purposes. The taxi company
was not represented today by attor-
neys, nor did it contest the testimony
or offer any evidence in refutation.
It's proprietors, J. P. King and w. G..

proceedings.

ROAD PROJECT
WILL RECEIVE ATTENTION

Although there are no funds
available at this time for the under
taking of new wagon road projects
in the territory, it is the intention
of the Alaska Road commission to
proceed with its plans for the link
ing of the Kantishna district with
the Government railroad, according
to Col. Jas. G. Steese, chairman
of the commission, who arrived from
Juneau this week on winter in
spection trip, the chief purpose of
which was to study snow conditions
along the line of the Government
railroad.
Questioned relative to the plans
of the commission, Col. Steese in
formed a representative of The
News that the final selection of the
kantishna wagon road route would
be made during the coming summer
and that an effort would be made
to distribute supplies and material
along the route sufficiently early to
permit of the commencement of
actual road building next spring
The several proposed routes have
already been investigated and esti-
mates made of grades, but addition
al data will be obtained before II
final decision is made. That is one
reason why the chairman is in In
terror Alaska at the present time.
Regarding funds to carry on the
work Of the commission, Col Steese
said that neary half million was
voted during the last session of
Congress, and afterwards lost when
President Wilson vetoed the army
appropriation bill, in which the road
item was carried. He is not pre-
pared to say what the present Con-
gress will do, but he is hopeful of
securing at least as much as was
voted during the winter. With that
amount available, it will be posi-
BILE to launch the Kantishna pro-
ject.
Much of the commissions atten-
ton this season will be devoted to
the Richardson highway and work
will be started on the Chatanika-
Circle road, with the ultimate aim
of making it part of the proposed
system of Alaska automobile high
ways.
Col. Steese refused to talk politics
but admitted that he lad heard the
Alaska governorship discussed con-
siderably during his stay in Wash
ington. From what he heard, he
gathered that Alaskans were not in
the best of standing at the national
capital because of the apparent in
ability to harmonic their differ
ences, and the belief seemed to be
that both Alaska aspirants for the
governorship had been eliminated
from consideration, for the time
being, at least. It was believed at
Washington, when the colonel left
there, that the President would not
be in any hurry to appoint a sue
