PASS CLASSIC Y|NG
BILL THIS SESSION
Senator Sterling Expects Ac.
ton and Raps Efficiency
Bureau Before Lawyers.
PLEA MADE FOR WOMEN
Should Be Accepted as Matter Of
Course, Says Mrs. Mabel
Willebrandt.

, Prediction that the Sterling-Lehl-
! bach reclassification bill will pass the
; Senate this short session Of Congress
was made by Senator Sterling of
South Dakota last night at Il ban
quet of the Federal Bar Association
at Rauscher's.
Provided a favorable report with
reasonable unanimity" can be OBJ
tained from the Senate committee
, now considering it, the senator de-
clared the bill would in all probable
ity be passed by the Senate in mot
, to exceed two days"
Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt. as
sistant attorney general. made a plea
for the twentieth century woman en-
tering the professional and business
world. Justice Mccoy of the Supreme
Court Of District of Columbia coun-
seled the assembly of government
| lawyers rot to exercise their powers
: II an "arbitrary manner.
! Roun,lly scoring the bureau OF
! efficiency. Senator Sterling declared
that this government bureau. costing
, $4,000 year. had failed In two OF
the most vital problems for efficiency
| and the recla ssification bills.
From those quarters where natu-
rally we expected the greatest as
sistance and help" declared Senator
Sterling. I'VE found obstruction and Il
disposition to retard. 1t is our
thought that this bill (recla ssitica
tiom will mean efficiency and will
mean economy. Yet in our efforts to
adopt these principles we have had
no aid from the bureau OF efficiency"
| Real Scientific Basis.
! The Sterling Lehlbach bill. the
speaker declared. had the only real
, basis for scientific reclassification of
civil employees. 1t was not a mere
wage bill. according to the speaker.
! The real basis for scientific reclassi-
: fication had been adopted in a
! schedule OF duties and the qualifica-
! tions required to perform those du-
! ties.
| Three steps would be necessary, Sem
ator Sterling pointed out, to place the
| civil service system of America ahead
! OF any government OF the world. first,
! the retirement act. already passed; sec
: ond. Reconsideration, predicted soon to
| pass. and third. the reorganization of
| government departments. These he said.
would complete the cycle and place
| America in the lead.
| Mrs. Willebrandt was received with
enthusiasm by members OF her pro-
fession. One Of the most difficult OBJ
stacles for the new woman, she said,
is the attitude Of men.
The highest tribute possible to pay
! the new woman. Mrs. Willebrandt
said. was to take her as "a matter
Of course" Girls, for instance, in
| government work. were blamed for
mistakes more than boys, she assert

are doing too much in Washington"
said Justice Mccoy. The states, he
declared had been giving up too
mary duties which they used to per-
form. which they ought still to per-
form now. turning themsover to the
federal government. The speaker re-
ferred to the great multiplication of
administrative bodies in the govern
ment. making regulations without
end" ana declared that the interpre-
tation of these laid a burden of re-
sronsibility on the government law
yer.
Regarding higher pay for govern
ment employees. Justice Mccoy quoted
remark made to him by former Sec
retary Of Agriculture Houston, as
follows: Il believe If this government
ever turns out to be a failure, it will
be on account of the failure of Con-
gress to pay adequately for expert
service"
Francis NJ. Goodman, assistant sec
retary Of the Interior Department.

cd. BOYS were looked at with pros
poets for advancement more than
girls. This was unfair, she said.
Another handicap of modern women
advancing in business or profession,
Mrs. Willebrandt said. was the obso-
lete, but still prevalent. idea that "a
woman must be considered only as Il
weaker member of the family, pro-
tected by the male head of the family.
Woman should he considered now AS
an Individual, with qualifications and
abilities for advancement of her own
the speaker said. and she should have
an opportunity to progress. without
self-consciousness of sex. without dis
crimination. as d fellow member of
the profession"
Justice Mccoy admonished care in
the exercise of the powers bestowed
by the federal government. He point
ed to instances of the arbitrary action
on the part OF lawyers representing the
government.

CAN RAIDERS SEIZE WINE
FOR HOME USE? SUPREME
COURT WILL SETTLE POINT.

The state Supreme court, some time
in April, will settle an interesting
case of personal rights. Last summer
Curtis Nelson of Arena gathered a
quantity of elderberries from which
he made, for personal use, 81 gallons
of wine, testing from Ii to 20 per cent
alcohol. His home was raided, the
wine seized and Nelson arrested for
violation of the Severson act. Nelson
does not deny that he made the wine
and had it in his possession, contend
ing that there is no evidence to show
that he made it for sale, transporta-
ton or consumption by others than
his own family. Judge jerks of
Dodgeville heard the case in county
court and the matter then went to the
higher body on a certificate Of doubt.
Nelson is represented by M. J. Briggs
Civil war veteran and capable at
torney of Dodgeville. Arguments
will be made before the Supreme
court in March and a decision will be
expected in April. The large number
of citizens of the state who have made
it a practice to gather wild berries.
herbs and fruits for home wine
making, will await the outcome OF the
Nelson case with interest.

FEDERAL INCOME
TAX LTGHTENS

Changes in the revenue law are of
material benefit. to the average fam
lily man. Under the revenue act of
1921, married person, living with
wife or husband. whose net income
was $4,000 or less, is allowed an ex-
emption of $4,000. Under the revenue
act of 1918 the exemption allowed a
married person was $4,000, regardless
of the amount of net income.
The normal tax rate is the same,
4 per cent on the first $4,000 of net
income above the exemptions, and s
per cent of the remaining net income
Given his personal exemption of ST.
500, plus $500 for each dependent, a
married man with three children
the average American family-will
pay this year on net income of $4,000,
a tax of $12. On the same net income
in 1921 he would have paid a tax of
$50.
Every citizen and resident of the
United States must determine for
himself whether his income for 1921
was sufficient to require that a return
be filed. Full instructions for making
out a return are contained on the
forms, a copy of which have been
sent to taxpayers who filed a return
last year Failure to receive a return
does not relieve a taxpayer Or his OBJ
legation to file a return on time, or
before March Is, 1922. Forms may
be obtained from collectors of inter
nal revenue and branch offices.
