that contributions to the Woodrow

sippi. democrat, yesterday introduced
q bill placing contributions to the
foundation in the tax free list along
with contributions to- the Roosevelt
Memorial Association and the Will
liam Mckinley Memorial Association.
Senator Harrison declared that the
commissioners ruling was actuated
by partisan motives. He said the rul-
ing was "puerile and picayunish." He
said that the commissioner had ruled
only recently that contributions to
the other two associations were not
subject to tax as income in the hands
of the donor.
'"The commissioner ruling was sur
prising to nearly everybody" Senator
Harrison said, land 1t was humiliat-

will regard 1t as fair. cannot be-

v. R. &E.PR0TEST
I. ON BUSES FAILS

The Public Utilities Commission
late yesterday issued an order dis
missing the protest Of the Washing
ton Railway and Electric Company
against the Washington Rapid Tran
sit Company's operation Of the pro-
posed Rhode Island avenue bus line
In doing SO, however, the commits
sion upheld one of the three salient
points of the protesting company, re-
part of the bus line because Of the
latters non-taxation of it's gross re-
ceipts. which. in the case Of railway
companies, are taxed by law, and be-
cause of the latters exemption from
Q share in the salaries of the traffic
policemen and in the upkeep of streets
used by the vehicles.
This point justified the claim of un-
fair competition in the opinion of the
commission The commission an
cent bus receipts tax was being pre-
pared for submission to Congress.
THE action of the commission" the
order states. "in authorizing the oper-
alton Of these motor buses. taken as
q result of public demand, Induces
people to withdraw their patronage
from the street railways with the re-
sultant loss of revenue to the latter
and a corresponding reduction in the
amount of gross receipts tax collected
from them by the District of Coluni-
bia-
"In order to correct the first Of these
inequalities. the commission now has
in preparation q bill for submission to
Congress by the terms of which all
such motor bus transportation COM
panies will be required to pay tax of
4 per cent per annum on their gross
receipts from business in the District
of Columbia.
"As to the payment of salaries OF
crossing policemen and for the main
tenance Of street pavements. the COM
mission has endeavored in the past to
secure and will continue to urge the
enactment Of legislation by Congress
relieving the street railways from
ehese financial burdens"

MERGER PROSPECTS
RU[|NGINFLUENCE
BY STUART p. WEST.

NEW YORK. April 2s.-There were
days stock market.
First came the recent turn for the
better in oil prices. and the effect this
and dividends Of the oil producers.
Second were the speculative pos
sibilities of the independent steel
merger and the conjectures regarding
the figures with which the various
properties would enter the combina-
ton.
Third. there was the increased in
terest in possible railway deals. in
Volving the union of some of the
smaller roads or else their taking
over as feeders and new links in one
or another of the larger systems.
Oils, Steels and Rails.
1t was these three groups of stocks
the oils, the steels and the minor
rails-that attracted the greatest
amount of attention.
They were bought at times with
considerable urgency. The Standard
Oils. both On the inside Rnd. outside
market, led the advance In the oil
group. but they were closely followed
Rehners, Phillips Petroleum. Union
Oil and other representative oil
shares.
The copper stocks did better partly
IN response TO the largest demand
of the last few days for the copper
metal and partly out of relief as the
poor statements for 1921 were left
behind
The decline in franc exchange was
checked and the French government
bonds were frmer. Other exchange
rates moved very little. It was an
other day of moderate activity in the
bond market, but without the inter-
est there was a week ago.
Low-priced rails were very popular
again in the market this morning
but attention was given more par
ticularly to stocks of roads which
might conceivably figure in merger
deals.
For the moment the question OF
earnings does not count much. Lake
Erie and westerns had their advance
in spite of the fact that there is not
much of a showing in current reve-
nues for the stocks. The contention is
that the same thing could happen In
other rails which are not showing uL
wonderfully we'll in their present
earnings results, but which Nigh,
figure in combinations.
There seems to be no doubt that the
terms upon which the individual com.
panies will enter the Independent steel
merger have been agreed upon. Nc
public announcement is expected, how
ever. for another week or so.
In the meantime those on the out
side have to take their cue on what
the merger prices are from the stock
tape.

Attorney Wilton ]. Lambert, in the
opening argument. declared the gov

Mr.. Lambert also laid stress upon

defendants of an alleged conspiracy

Mr.. Lambert concluded his attack
on the suficiency of the indictments
with the statement that the defend
ants are entitled to have the indict-
xnents quashed or the demurrer sus-
tanned.
Attorney Conrad H. Syme. appear
for William w. Scott, one Of the ac-
cused. contended the indictments are
defective, in that they do not specify
the offenses charged with sufficient
exactness to permit the defendants
to make a proper defense.
Mr.. Syme cited decisions of the
United States Supreme Court and of
the District Court of Appeals to bear
out his argument.
District Attorney Gordon is per-
eonally conducting the case for the
government and will make arguments
either this afternoon or next week
in reply to the reasons advanced by
counsel for the defendants.

quired for argument on the points
