The Misses at School

There was once school,
Where the mistress. Miss die,
Taught number of misses that
y vexed her;
Miss Chief was the lass
AT the head of the class,
And young Miss Demeanor was
next her
Poor little Miss Hap
Spilled the ink in her lap,
And Miss Fortune fell on the
table;
Miss Conduct they all
Did Miss Creant call,
But Miss State declared this a
fable.
Miss Lay lost her book,
And Miss Lead undertook
To show her the place where to
find it;
But upon the wrong rail
Miss Place hung her veil,
And Miss Deed hung the book
safe behind it.
Then all went very well,
AS | qave heard tell,
Till Miss Take brought in Miss
Understanding;
Miss Conjecture then guessed
Evil things of the rest,
And Miss Council advised their
disbanding.

members said yesterday. The
schedules adopted by the House
will in ali probability stand with
few changes. The COMMITTEES. how
ever, has been informed by the
Treasury Department that a req1est
will be made that some Of the Inn
portant administrative provisions of
the tax bill be changed before final
enactment.
The finance committee has de-
cided that IL will hold no public
hearings on taxation. Persons who
wish to be heard. however. will be
given an opportunity to see indi-
vidual members. Chairman Penrose

Statement By Peursse.
THE Finance Committee will have
the tax bill ready when Congress
reconvenes." said Senator Penrose
I'VE will be able to give o good
account of our Stewardship"
Senator Penrose expects IL will
be two months before the tariff ex-
perts which Congress authorized
the Treasury DEPARTMENT to employ.
can report to. the Finance Commit
tee.
The experts are to be put to work
gathering estimates on probable
revenues and compiling tables to be
used by the Customs Service under
[ - an valust ton plan.
The Finance Committee will con-
tinue its public hearings on the
tariff bill until the middle OF next
week, when 1t will begin considera-
ton of tax revision. The tariff
hearings will be resumed when the
tax bill is reported to the Senate.
They probably will continue until
the Treasury experts make their
report.
Tive Months Delay.
The two months delay in secur-
ing the data on the valuation sys-
tenn will automatically postpone re-
porting OF the tariff bill to the Sen
"te for more than the two months
After the Finance Committee re-
ceivcs reports of the valuation ex-
perts, il will still have much work
to do on the bill.
Members Of the Finance Commit
tee said yesterday that the prob
able program will be to get the
tariff bill ready to report to the
Senate when the regular session OF
Congress opens in December. The
| bill will require at least a month
in the Senate. and must then sc
back to the House where the Sen
ate changes must be considered and
acted on before the bill can BE-
| finally enacted.
