Waning Hours Spentin Wrang-

to Clear Calendars

Washington, D. C.-The >, waning
hours of the sixty-seventh Congress,
which expired by law Sunday, noon,
were troubled with a adjournment
wrangle that .gave:an extraordinary
touch to the finaF. season of -"swan
songs. and farewells to men and
measures. :.
The night sessions were held by
both Senate and House to clear away
the last legislative business on the
calendars. Sundays sessions began
at 10 a: m. giving a twoA6ur. period
for the final formalities. President
Harding went to the capitol to sign
. eleventh hour bills, and sharply at
noon the Congress passed iifto his
tory. -.
The congressional books. closed
with only one major measure, the
farm credits bill caught in the, tur.
MOL and jamEof- tfe closing, hours; It
was held waiting most of the day
while double-headed' filibuster in
both House and Senate ragged over the
Senate resolution providing 100000

leaders had held up the resolution.
and it's supporters retaliated by pro.
voking a filibustar 6f hours that tied

subjects. Many statements praising
the. two years record. of Congress
were made by Republican: -;feaders.
while opposite views were voiced BY
their political opponents. 49,.
Both branches of Congress went at
high speed until the snag OF -fiIibnsZ

In'view of these steps. It is consid-

British drug and chemical firms

REVISION IS ExREcrEL.
Would Request Officials of Treasury
to Form Committee to Prepare

Washington. d. C-Preparations al.
ready are under way for revision of
the revenue law at the next session
OF Congress with view Of simplify
ing its cumbersome administrative
provisions.
Although efforts may be made to
bring about far-reaching changes in
revenue policy, this is not contem-
plated by administration leaders, who
think this would be difficult of ac-
complishment. They believe, how
ever, that administrative changes are
necessary.
Representative Green, Republican,

new Ways and Means Committee,
has charge OF the preliminary work
and announces that he would request
officials of the treasury to form
committee to prepare. recommends
stions for amendments. to the admin

appointed at once, composed of. Off
cials connected with the administra-
tion of tax laws, and competent to
prepare complete Recommendation
for simplifying, procedure and also
for slarifying, sections of the revenue
law which. have proved. difficult to
interpret and which have been the
subject Of litigation .a
While a. tax simplifcation board
was created under the ,1921 revenue
act, its work has consisted of rec
ommending changes in regulations
and tax forms of. the jnternal rev.
enue bureau, rather than amend
ments TO o,the. law. 1t is Green's idea
that such. a committee as he proposes
should be: ready to submit complete
recommendations when Congress con-
,yenesain December If such recon-
mendations are. ready he plans 10 ar
range for hearings OF 1the Ways and.
Means Committee early in the session
with a vieW to making as compre-
hensive revision OF the revenue law
as may. be possible. There would be
taken at the same. time such recon-
ifnendations for changes. in major
a4rovisions of the 'revnue law as ,may
be submitted, BY Secretary cf the
Treasury Mellon or may be brought
forward by members Of. the HoGse..
Whatever happens with: respect to
proposed changes of this nature, it
is. expected that the time would at
least be favorable for simplifying tax
procedure and for clearing up, ques-
tions with respect to the interpteta-
ton of the present law which are in
dispute. - 80, '1l.l
