MINORITY TO FIGHT
SPECIAL BONUS TAX
House Democrats Line Up for
Action Against Proposed
Sales Levy Plan.

Special Dispatch to TIE New York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. c., Jan. %.
Pronounced opposition to special tax
as the best means to raise funds needed
for the soldier bonus has developed
among House Democrats.
Informal conferences have been held
on the subject and it is expected the
views of the minority will crystalline
within a few days and will be diamet-
rically opposed to the program of the
Republican leaders
Representative Garner (Tex) an
nounced to-day that after comforting
with some leaders of his party he IA
vored direct appropriation from the
Treaeury to pay the bonus, reinforced
by the sale of Government certificates
of indebtedness. His plan calls for re-
imbursement of the Treasury from the
interest on the foreign allied war debt,
or through the sale Of obligations re-
ceived from foreign Governments in pay
ment of those loans. Mr.. Garner ex-
poets the Endorsement of his scheme by
the full Democratic membership OF me
House, and to submit it to the House
Ways and Means Committee at the first
meeting to be held Tuesday for the con-
sideration Of means to raise the bonus.
The plan outlined by Mr.. Garner IS
one rejected. by Secretary Mellon and
condemned by President Harding.
The Democrats are planning to make
a campaign issue of the bonus Iignt.
They do not intend to support the Re
publican program and they Will go be-
fore the voters with the plea tnat thell
bonus plan would have added a slight
burden to the masses.
While 1t appears that the Demo-
Gratis will present united front IN
opposition to the sales tax plan, the Re-
publicans Of the House are split on
that proposition. Some OF the leaders
are strongly inclined to favor that
scheme as the solution of the perplex-
ing problem In devising ways to raise
the funds needed for the bonus.
Representative F'rear (Wis.) warned
of the danger Of adopting the sales tax
plan.
1--WE were told" he said. there is to
be no shifting but lifting Of taxes. You
have repealed excess profits taxes to
the amount of 450,000,o00, thus lifting
that tax from the rich, and now you
propose a sales tax to raise that amount
which Is to come from the great mass
of people"
When asked by Representative Old
field (Ark.) II the Republicans had
agreed on sales tax. Mr.. Frear replied
in the Affirmative. Chairman Fordney
Of the Ways and Means Committee said
no definite program had been agreed
upon, although there was strong drift
in favor of the sales tax plan. While
the subject was discussed at the caucus
last night of the House Republicans, nc
decision was reached.

English Tennis
Team Wins Pair
From Italians

ROEHAMPTON, June 10 The
British Isles team scored in a con-
vincing manner in two matches in
singles in the Davis cub match
against Italy played here today. f.
Gordon Lowe defeated Count di Ro-
becco 81, 6-3. 6-1. and Major AL
gernon r. T. Kingscote won from
Cesare Colombo, rs, GA, 6-1.
Randolph Lucett is i'll and did not
compete today. EngIand's prospects
seemed back, but the situation was
relieved by the fact that the Italians
did not play Baron Morphhurgo, their
strongest racket wielder. No reason
was assigned for his having scratched
out of the matches
kingscOte'S victory over Colombo
was a far more spectacular one. The
first set was splendidly contested.
Both men brought their service
games to I've all. Colombo deliv-
cred good forward American break
ball which bothered Kingscote. In
the eleventh game the Epglishman,
accepting great risks, broke through
the Italians service with some splen-
did shots to the line. The second set
was equally well played.
Colombo made 3-2 and 3-3 but
kingscote then mastered his oppo-
nents service and hitting forcefully
to the base line, captured the next
three games. In the third set Kings
cote dominated the play.

ers and settlers be brought into the
state.
Mr.. Orme asserted that during his
residence in the Salt River valley he
had never known of a shortage of
Mexican laborers because of the adj
verse climatic conditions At the
former hearings of the case the rail-
road companies had given as one
reason for the higher rates, the fact
that they were unable to obtain Mex
lean laborers in Arizona because of
the adverse climatic conditions.
Mr.. Lynch gave practically the
same opinion as Mr. Orme and de-
clared that he had never known of
Mexican labor to be scarce on ac-
count of the climate of the state.
Mr.. Lynch also reviewed the Salt
River irrigation project and asserted
more settlers were needed for the
state and valley
The case closed with the testimony
of E. r. Raumaker, traffic manager

START CLEANUP Of
CITY IN EFFICIENT
HEALTH CAMPAIGN

Under the direct supervision of
City Health officer DR.. I. L. Garri-
son, an intensive cleanup campaign
will be started today with squad of
three wagons to remove all trash,
refuse and undesirabl BILE accumulations.
This action is being taken as nee
essary step to relieve the smallpox
situation, according to DR.. Garrison.
Any one having refuse to be moved
is requested to call the city health
department, phone 4195.
Vaccination is proving very effec-
tive in halting the spread of the
dread disease in this city, DR.. Garri-
son told members Of the city commits
sion yesterday at an informal meet
ing. He said that since the epidemic
had started here the city had given
free inoculation to more than $500
people and that this work was being
continued at the free clinic, 800 East
Adams street. every Tuesday. Thurs
day and Saturday.
Vaccination will stop the scourge
within 90 days. the doctor declared
yesterday.
Referring to the present situation
he said conditions were considerably
improved.
1.-THE new cases of smallpox are
less severe than those of an earlier
date" he explained. There are no
cases of the black and malignant
kind being reported now and there is
a very satisfactory decrease in the
number of cases of any description.
In fact, the situation is well in hand
at present but it is onperative that
there be no relaxation in observing
precautionary measures and t h
simple rules of health and sanita-'
tion'
DR. Garrison said there were now
about so houses under smallpox
quarantine with an average of two
cases to the house, and that the
quarantine has been removed re-
Gently from about so other houses.

Industrial Condition of Country
Shows General Recovery Is Report

THE general business situation OF
the country has continued favorable
from month to month"; says the Ma
tional City Bank of New York City
in statement just issued until con-
fidence is now well-established that
the worst of the Inevitable postwar
depression is over. The recovery re-
fleets the great recuperative powers
which this country has within itself,
but has been aided by a similar DEM
onstration in other countries.
The most potent general factor in
the revival of trade has been the ex-
haustion of stocks, the wearing out
of things in use, bringing consumers
to the necessity of coming into the
markets to supply their own wants
and of selling what they might have
to provide the means of purchase.
The pressure of reciprocal wants
gradually brings all branches of in
dustry to the readjustments that have
to be made.
"The stocks of metals, notably cop
per. zinc and lead, on hand at the end
of the war likewise have been liqui-
dated. and production has revived
with a wholesome recovery of prices

a mile for intra-state passenger traf-
fic in Arizona. New Mexico and
Nevada as compared to base rate
of SO cents a mile which prevails in
other states in the union without eX-
ception, is both discriminatory and
preiudicial TO the best interests oil
these states. the hearing of the
three cent fare case which began
in Phoenix on Saturday morning,
closed yesterday morning to reopen
again in Santa Fe, n. NJ. on Friday,
June 23 The hearings are conducted

ter granting the application of the
corporation commissions of the three
states involved for a rehearing of the
matter following an adverse decision
in the case in Los Angeles III 1871.
The commissions of the three states
ask in their application that the pre-
vailing high rate in these states be
reduced IL cents n mile to conform
with the rates in effect in the other
states.
At tn hearing Saturday morning
in the Hotel Adams, the railroad
companies objected TO the introduc-
ton of~a written statement from
Governor Thomas E. Campbell but
yesterday morning they withdrew
their objections and the statement
cfa
ment was offered Saturday morning
by Henry Behoteguy. secretary to
the governor, who testified for the
governor in the absence OF the latter
from the city.
At the resumption of the hearing
yesterday morning, A. f. Jones, for
mer member of the Arizona COR
poration commission completed his
testin ony. Mr.. Jones was for many
years connected with the western
railroads in many capacities and
gave valuable testimony as to the
operations of the roads throughout
the west, particularly in Arizona. He
was followed by Linn b. Orme, Ari-
Zona pioneer and director of the
Salt River Valley Water Users as
sociation. and P. ]. Lynch, assistant
superintendent of the same associa-
ton.
Mr.. Olme said he had been a res
ident of the valley for As years and
gave as his opinion that the higher

esnsetia. to the best interests of the
valley and the state that more farm

sociation which includes Douglas
and Bisbee. Mr.. Raumaker testified
df to the difficulties that association
had experienced in inducing settlers
to come 20 the state, on account of
the higher rates.
Amos A. Belts, Arizona corporation
commissioner, yesterday following
the hearing, said that the Arizona
commission did not offer any of the
rate and statistical exhibits which
had been prepared by that body at
the hearing in Phoenix because of
the failure of the railroads to offer
any evidence. Mr.. Belts added these
exhibits would be offered in Santa
Fe. He declared the commission felt
that the evidence given by the citi-
zens of the state at the hearing here
had fully demonstrated to the inter-
state commerce commission the
necessity for rate adjustment as
claimed by Arizona
