BEING STUDIED

Temporary, Is Report
GAS TAX is CONSIDERED
Funds Needed Only For Cash
Payment; Other Compen-
sation Will Cost Little

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The field
of possible soldiers bonus taxes vir-
tually was narrowed today to eight
sources by, the subcommittee Of the
Republican members of the house
ways and means committee dealing
with the tax problem. These sources
were stated as follows: gasoline
consumption tax of possibly one cent
a gallon; license tax on autoT obiles
of about 25 cents per horsepower! a
stamp tax on bank checks at about
one cent for each check; a tax on
real estate transfer at the rate of
about 5 cents on each $40 involved !;
and increased taxes on admissions
where the sum paid exceeds % cents,
stamps, Representative Longworth
of Ohio, said there was little senti-
ment for any increase either In the
first class or second class hostage
rates, but admitted that there had
been some discussion of an advance
in the parcel post rates
Exact Rates Undecided
The bonus taxes will be temporary,
Longworth said, extending over three
years, and will he designed solely to
take care of the cash payments to be
made during the two and one half
years beginning January 1, 1923. It
was explained that the cost of the
other four options to be included in
the bonus measure would be spread
over twenty years and would not be-
gin to be serious charge against the
federal treasury for several years at
least.
Members of the subcommittee fig
ured that on the basis of estimates
furnished by treasury experts, the
$350,000,000 yearly needed for three
years for the cash payments could be
obtained from the eight sources out
lined. Exact rates in each case re-
main to be fixed, but the sub-commit-
tee expects to have the program COM
pleted by Saturday. 1t then will be
passed upon by the majority mem
bers of the wavs and means commit

submitted in turn to Republican mem
bers of the senate finance committee
and President Harding.

Government Credit in Ef-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-Means of
lending the aid of the governments
credit to the railroads are under conl
sideration in administration circles, it
was indicated today by high officials.
Any such plan, however, it was said,
would not involve use Of government
money for rendering financial assis-
tance to the carriers, but the use of
federal credit.
that a government guarantee Of rail-
road equipment trust certificates
would make them attractive to invest
ors and enable roads to raise money
for needed rolling stock without the
expenditure of funds from the treas
ury.
Secretary Mellon is also understood
to regard favorably the idea of lend
ing the governments credit to the
carriers on the theory that better
business conditions generally would
result from improvement in the rail
road situation. If any such steps
should be taken, however, in the opin.

CAUSE Of FIRE

Crew Willing to Talk Rescue
But Remain Silent Regard
ing Origin of Blaze

TEWPORT NEWS, Va, Feb. 9. -
Refreshed by a few hours sleep, and
apparently little concerned about
their experience of being rescued
from their ship which was burned at
sea yesterday, members of the crew
of the steamship Northern Pacific to-
day described the fire and the rescue,
but remained silent when questioned
as to possible causes of the disaster.
Meantime, Captain William Lustie,
master Of the Northern Pacific, pre-
pared report for the shipping board
and left for Norfolk.
Aboard the rescue ship Transpor-
tation, which docked here early today
with the survivors, Captain Lustie re-
fused to make any statement pending
publication of his report. Captain
Seth Chase of the Transportation,
however, told of sighting the burning
steamship about l a. m, Monday. and
said from a point II miles distant
the flames appeared to be Just lit

ROME, Feb. 9.-Two thirds of the
foreign cardinals and smalSI'raction
of the Italians favored American par
ticipation in the conclave which elect
ed Pope Plus XI. Against the pro-
most all Italian cardinals, led by the
camerlengo, Cardinal Gasparri.
1t is learned that the Austrian Car
dinal Piffi, archbishop of Vienna, and
Cardinal Csernoch, primate of Hun
gary, made a determined stand that
the final choice for the pope should
not be made until at least one Amer
ican was present.
American is a vital part of the
church." he said to the members Of
the Sacred College 1T will be cal
amitous to deny her participation In
the election of the pontiff. 1t will
have grave reaction among the
american people; it will wound their
pride and dignity. I ask the conclave
to weigh well the consequences of its
act befoer casting this vote"
Cardinal Piffi was even more de-
termined. "Yes, it may be srur, se
said in answer to an Italian colleague,
that prolongation would not be in
strict consonance with the constitu-
ton. But can the Sacred College risk
offending America for the sake or a

Not Receive Interest Due
From Defunct Bank

PHOENIX. Ariz., Feb. 9.-The case
of Harry s. Ross, former state treas
urer, charged with conspiracy, was
submitted to a superior court jury
here this evening.
At a late hour tonight, the jurors

latter is president of the bank, which
the prosecution contends, did not fur
nish bonds sufficient to cover state
deposits. The state also alleged IL

LONDON, Feb. 9-Although it is
believed that the few persons cap

the situation in Ireland as the result
of kidnapings otherwise remains dead
locked today, the Sim Feiners ap-
parently having declined to liberate

several more Ulster specials.
The northern government has
placed some 5000 specials along the
boundary to prevent a new invasion
from the south. 1t also is arranging
for the reinforcement of the specials
by troops.
The government headed by Sir
James Craig also is urging the i'm
perial government to take action, but
the imperial authorities appear to be
reluctant to interfere further pending
action by the provisional, government
of the Free State.
Troops Still Leaving.
British troops today were still leav.
ing southern ireland and statement
made in parliament by Winston Spen-
Ger Churchill, secretary for the col

the government to leave --le solution

Irish governments.
arthur Griffith, in an interview, ex-
pressed confidence that with patience
and restraint by both sides. the Ulster
question would be amicably settled
within the present year on the bas,s
of a unified Ireland. He added that
it must be remembered that the pro
visional government did not enjoy full
governmental powers as yet, but tnal
it might be relied on to adopt every
action within its circumscribed pow
ers tp prevent illegal acts from De

and comprehensive investigation into
the circumstances surrounding the
staying of William Desmond Taylor,
noted film director, was under way
here today. directed by the district
attorney.
Yesterday and today, the district
attorney gathered into his hands the
scattered threads of evidence that
had been drawn out by the police,
the sheriffs office and Independent
investigators, and tonight he was at
tempting to weave them into some
sort of pattern that would disclose
what transpired Just before Taylor
lost his life.
One item gathered for this prospec'
tive fabric of fact and deduction was
a packet of letters written by Mabel
Normand. motion picture actress, and
which disappeared from Taylor's
home after his death These letters
were discovered yesterday, concealed
among Taylor's effects. Their con
tents were not disclosed and Miss
Normand, who was in seclusion today
declined to comment on the new turn
of events.
MaCleanS Are summoned
Witnesses questioned today in the
investigation, which, it was announc
ed, would be complete and would take
other inquiries into consideration on
ly as far as facts learned by them
might be helpful, included Charles
Eyeton, general manager of the Fam
Gus Players-Lasky studio here, al
which Taylor was employed as a di
rector. Eyeton testified at the cor
oner's inquest that he was the first
to suspect that Taylor's death hat
been caused by other than natura
events. He said he had insisted thai
the body be examined for wounds. anC
it was his insistence, according to hi'
statement at the inquest, that caused
discovery of the fatal wound.
Eyeton had conference today with
the district attorney, Thomas Lee
