DEBATE IN SENATE
ON EXCESS PROFITS
BILL ENDED TODAY
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON. Oct. 26-A final
vote on repeal of the excess profits
tax on next January 1, was to be
taken late today by the senate, under
a unanimous consent agreement reach
ed last night, to close debate on this
provision at D. m Adoption of the
house provision for elimination of this
tax was regarded as certainty
This will be the third of the six
major proposals in the revenue re-
vision bill to come to vote in the
senate in the one month to a day,
since the measure was reported by
the finance committee. After this is
disposed of, will come the fixing of
the normal corporation income tax,
and votes on proposals to increase
the inheritance taxes and repeal many
of the so-called nuisance taxes.
The agreement for a vote today was
the first to be reached between the
Democrats and Republicans on the bill
and came after Democratic leaders
had refused to consent to the limiting
of debate on each amendment to 1C
minutes for each speaker and that or
the bill to one hour. Plans for pro
ceedure after p. m. today had not
been fully determined by Republican
leaders early today.
Will See Bill Through.
Fifty Republican senators having
signed an agreement to remain con
tinuously at the capital beginning to
day for votes on the tax bill, major
ity leaders claimed they were in {
position to WELD the club of continu
Gus session until a final vote was tax
en- on the measure, but apparent!
they were not disposed to use thi
weapon except as a last emergency.
Even with a continuous session
there was doubt that the bill could b.
brought to a final vote this week, a
many important items in the bill re
main to be acted upon and there ar
pending scores of amendments. Afte
the committee amendments are dis
/ posed of the whole bill or any section
| of it will be open to amendment a
| the senate is now working in the CON
| mittee of the whole and must brin
the measure into the senate for fina
debate and vote.

CHICAGO, Oct 26-B w Hooper.
member of the United States railroad
labor board conducting the hearing
called by the board to investigate the
threatened railroad strike, today
called President Lee of the trainmen
to the stand and questioned him con-
corning the strike order
Mr.. Lee told how the strike vote
was taken and the walkout ordered
He told the board he withdrew from
the joint meeting of the other unions
because their strike resolutions Gov
cred questions he did not think were
involved
Il took the position" Mr. Lee said,
that for once in my life at least, l
wanted to tell the truth to my men
about the facts as l saw them
Wage Reductions Necessary.
Lee read into the records a circular
letter sent to his men while they were
voting on the strike in which he point
| ed out that wages must come down
! and that 100000 unemployed men
were seeking jobs.
Lee declared the differences be-
| tween himself and the other unions
arose when he insisted upon a clean
cut statement pointing out that there
was possibility of re-opening negota-
tions with the roads, using the strike
vote as a club because the labor board
and not the roads had ordered the
wage cut.
| When the hearing was resumed at
2 p. m. Judge Barton announced a
night session would be held from un-
til 8 tonight. Continuing his question
ing of President Lee of the trainmen.
Mr.. Hooper asked who had the proper
authority to call off the strike Mr.
Lee said only the general committee,
but that Mr.. Lee, as the chief execu-
tive, could send word when the com
mittee had reached Satisfactory
settlement
When we stood on the pinnacle
and saw every other class of labor
around us having its wages cut |
could not say, We will not accept
the II per cent wage cut" Mr.. Lee
said, "and SO | and the other organ
izations parted on the preparation of
the ballot
! Mr.. Hooper brought out that train.
men on IA roads had voted against a
strike.
Asks Action Taken
What action was taken to hold
the men IN service IN accordance with
: this boards orders to preserve the
status?' Mr.. Hooper asked
None whtaever"
Who had the authority to tell them
to maintain the status?'
Il presume this board"
; You understood there was to be
no strikes on any road until after thi:
| hearing?"
Il understood that was the intention
5 of this board. and of course we had
our own ideas as to just how far this
boards intention was binding on us
r Lee declared there was a serious
: doubt in his mind as to what status
i meant.
s There was serious question II
: our minds as to the Jurisdiction o.
: this board Mr.. Lee said Il DON
| know that it has been decided in any
court. We would like to know jus
how far this boards authority ex

That's just what we're here for
Mr.. Hooper replied. 81 wish you ever,
success" Mr.. Lee remarked.

The battle cruiser Renown, on

Anxiety over the princes journey
has been caused by the troubled po-
litical conditions in Great Britain S
empire in the east. The possibility OF
an attack on him is minimized here
but it is feared the Indian nationalists,
led by Mahatma Ghandi, will carry
out their threat to call strikes in each
city visited by the party, and that the
resulting situation may injure British
prestige. 1t was reported recently
that the royal family had endeavoreG
to dissuade the prince from taking the
trip, but he is said to have insisted
on carrying out the program that ha(

Informal Discussion and
Preparation, Washing t on

SECRECY IS OPPOSED
BY MARK SULLIVAN

WASHINGTON, Oct 26-Any dis
cussion about publicity at the coming
armament conference should begin by
calling attention to the fact that Presi-
dent Harding and Secretary Hughes
have practiced more publicity, have
given the newspapers and the public
greater access to what they are doing.
and in all respects have gone fur
ther than any other national executive
or foreign minister towards approxi-
mating the most insistent modern de-
mands for publicity about public af-
fairs.
Mr.. Harding meets the newspaper
men twice a week, at 1 o'clock on
Tuesday and at 4 o'clock on Friday,
Immediately after the twice a week
cabinet meetings which occur on those
days The meeting with the news
papermen is as fixed and formal A
function as the meetings of the cabi-
net itself.
Mr.. Hughes meets the newspaper
men twice a day at 10:30 in the morn
| ing and $3.50 in the afternoons. At
! three-fourths of these sessions, or per-
| haps five-sixths of them, Mr.. Hughes
| apears in person, when he cannot ap-
| pear he sends under-secretary of the
state Fletcher.
| Both are Frank
At all these sessions Mr.. Harding
and Mr.. Hughes practice degree OF
| frankness hitherto unknown in Wash
ington. The writer has never heard
newspaperman speak of these meet
| ings in any other term than those OF
satifaction. Whatever reservations
Mr.. Harding and Mr.. Hughes practice
are universally understood as reason
able by the correspondents.
Nothing like this has ever happened
before as regards the secretary o1
state. Literally nothing approaching
this degree of publicity has ever ex
listed. During the last seven months
the American public has had more
light on foreign affairs than ever be

ASK CHARLES
SURRENDER TO
GREAT BRITAIN
Hungarian Government De-
mands Formal Abdicatlon
and Cessation Of All Dynas-
tic Rights.
WANTS QUICK REPLY
(BY Associated PreSs)

BUDAPEST, Oct 26.-The Hungar-
ian government today formally asked
Emperor Charles to abdicate and to
recognize the complete cessation of
his dynastic right
He was ordered to surrender him
self to British authorities and was
told that an answer to these demands
was expected today.
Former Emperor Charles was await
ing the decision of the allied nations
regarding his exile from Hungary to
some place he will be prevented in the
future from disturbing the peace OF
this country and of central Europe.
The erstwhile monarch and his wife
were interned at the Benedictine Alb
hey at Tihany, on Platten Lake, about
so miles southwest of here, and the
collapse of his attempt to regain the
Hungarian throne was considered
complete.
Allies to Go Slow
1t seemed probable that Charles ant
| Zita would remain at the abbey fol
/ some time, as the allies were believed
to be disposed to go slowly in choos
| ing his future place of residence.
There apparently has been no evi
dent desire on the part of the entente
nations to place him on st. Helena O.
any other distant island, as such &C
tion would make Charles assume tn,
role of martyr in the eyes of hi
followers.
At the same time it appeared to b.
evident that it would be difficult t
find refuge for him on the European
continent. Switzerland has refuse,
to permit his return there except TO
a very brief period, during which b
would be interned.

.ONE MILLION STOLEN
IN new YORK POSTAL
HAUL, OFFICIALS SAY
(Rv Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Oct 26.-Belief that
the loot in Monday nights daring mail
holdup would exceed s1,000,000, was
indicated by postoffice authorities to-
day following partial check Of the
contents of the five stolen pouches,
while from other sources it was learn
ed that the total might exceed
$4,000 900
Officials of one Wall street firm not
yet listed as among those affected by
the robbery, said that firm had sent
$1,000,000 in securities by registered
mail on Monday night, but that they
had been unable to learn yet whether
it was in one of the five pouches TAX
en- by the three bandits who held ur
the truck in lower Broadway.
Known losses made public so far
included $463,O0 in bonds, mailed tc
clients by the Chase National bank
$4,000 in securities sent out by Hit
Farwell and Parks; $3,400 in bonds
mailed by Remick, Hodges and com
pany, and $4,000 in securities sent out
by Galloway, Fish and company.
All these losses were said to be
covered by private insurance.
Currency Included
1t also was reported that S50,00(
consignment of currency was includ
ed in the stolen mail but this wal
not confirmed by postoffice authorl
ties. 1t was said a full list of th'
losers could not be compiled for sew
eral days.
The three men who staged the hold
up were being sought by large fore
of federal agents and city detectives
today but with no apparent success
A reward of $4,000 for each of tn

master General Hays intensified inter

Postoffice inspectors also worke,

whence the stolen pouches emanate

The fact that the robbers picked wit

an indication that they had as cor
federate an employe inside the station
