6STH CONGRESS-
 OPENS MONDAY
(Continued From Page One. )

 there is a vast difference Sof opinion as to the form the measure should take. Such rid constituted plank in the platforms of the three major parties in the last election and only Senator Brookhort of Iowa, one of the La Fol lette leaders and one of those read out of the party by senate republicans, promised to give his support to such an administration measure.
 Amendments to the transportation act make up other legislation for which there will be a demand from all sides in both houses. Bills affecting freight rates and Pullman surcharges and pro- iding for the abolition of the railroad labor board already are pending in one house or the other, and there will be determined efforts to bring them to the front.
 Shoals Comes First
 Under an unanimous consent agree ment entered into in the senate at the last session, the Muscle Shoals .ques- day, but since ffenry Ford has publicly announced the withdrawal of his offer for this power development project, the subject probably will be sent back to committee for consideration of the several new proposals which will be submitted early this week in the form of bills.
 The presidents veto of the postal salary increase bill also is pending in the senate and there probably will be move for early action. Many other matters are reposing on the senate calendar. In fact there is enough legisla- tion thereon to keep the senate busy for the three months regardless of any recommendations for new legislation which the president may make in his annual message.
 Other subjects which will come in for debate at least during the short session are American adherance to the world court and recognition of Soviet Russia. Action on the first rests the senate with little prospect of action one way or another, while the Russian question is one on which the decision is with the state department.

D. Beuret, chief of the bureau of construction and repair.
 "The present rate of progress IS not satisfactory" Admiral Beuret's annual report state, land the bureaus con- cerned are Investigating the steps neces- sary to avoid luther delays.
 Construction of the battle cruisers, authorized in 1916, was first suspended during the war to permit more urgent peeds to be met, and was delayed again while the treaty was being framed and ratified. Conversion to air carriers re- ouired complete redesigning of the ships above the water line and many changes within the hulls.

The best one can say for the metro politan pace is that it is effective and impersonal. The ship news. photograph CTS have to work fast to get pictures of the most interesting passengers between the moment when they climb aboard and the moment when they must race for the development rooms. So they dis card needless words:
 Hey, Schwab," they said to the steel men. Get over here." They yelled at Judge Gary "Over here. Quick. Push your hat back. Smile." They planted a French actress on a chair before she could catch her breath.
 "Cross your feet" they yowled. "Show more leg"
 She obeyed automatically. Even Jack Morgan, who high-hats reporters and bankers regardless, was clay in the hands of the potter when they got him. He had refused to be interviewed or pictured. The ship news photographers snapped him.

Kansas City on the Way

Kansas City = Betrayal of trust by
high government officials presents q
greater menace to Democracy than
bolsheyism or any other of the alleged
evil influences, William G. McAdoo,
candidate for the Democratic nomina-
tion for president declared in an adj
dress on the train platform. at the
union station here today.
There can be no government with
corruption in high places" Mr.. McAdoo
said. This is a question of the life
of the American nation. We must
bring honesty back to the government"
The investigation must go on, he
said, until all of the facts are brought
out. adding that he did not wish to
see any attempt to "whitewash" any
one.
Mr.. McAdoo re-asserted his stand
for the soldiers bonus and declared
that the government had been unfair
to those in the war.
"The veterans bureau, whose sacred
duty was to protect and care for the
disabled and sick, stole money from
these boys he said. "What can be
said of a government so bad as that"

DEMOCRATIC PLAN
WINS In HOUSE
Lower House of Congress Gets Action
With Union OF Democrats
and Insurgents.

Washington, D. C. - The House
passed on with consideration of the
revenue bill today, leaders hoping for
speedy action inview Of the disposal
yesterday of the income tax section
through the adoption of the Demo
cratic substitute for the Mellon sched-
ule into the measure.
The rates adopted provide for a
maximum sur-tax of a per cent on
incomes of $4,000 and over and for
normal tax rates of two per cent on
incomes of $4,000 and under, four per-
cent on incomes between $4,000 and
$4,000, and six per cent on incomes
above $4,000. Personal tax exemptions
also were increased to allow $4,000 ex-
emption for single persons and $4,000
for heads of families.
This action, brought about the COM
bined votes of the Democrats and Re-
publican insurgents, settled the main
controversial point of the bill as far
as amendments to separate sections
are concerned. A vote must yet be
taken on the entire measure, however
and Republican leaders have indicated
they Will seek at JHdC LluS W nave u
rcommittd to committee and new in
come rates adopted.
The Garner rates were adopted in
the face Of compromise offer by Rep
resentative Longworth, Republican,
floor leader, to submit in amendment
to make the maximum surtax rate 371S
per cent instead of % per cent as car
ried in the bill. Republican insurg-
entsents refused the offer, IL voting
with the 2O3 Democrats for the Garner
amendment. Two other substitute pro-
posals already had been rejected, one
by Chairman Madden of the appropria-
tions committee, providing for the
Mellon rates except for sur-tax
maximum rate of &c per cent instead
of 25 per cent, and the other by Rep
resentative Frear, Wisconsin, Repub-
lican insurgent, calling for maximum
surtax of fifty per cent on incomes OF
100000 and over and for fifty per
cent cut in normal rates.

The Kenosha post Of the American

the rest of the post to one, that one
being A. W. Perkins.
Warm debate, which at times
threatened to become personal, pre-
ceeded the vote. Perkins, when chal-

against the bonus, opened the discus
sion. He declared that he did not
want to capitalize his patriotism, and
that he intended to hand down to
posterity discharge which did not
have bought and paid for" written
across its face.
He said that, while he wasn't an

profits would be made subject to reg

were Joined by about 16 Republican
insurgents. The vote was 1862 to 112.
Representative Rainey, Democrat,

declared it would bring enough addi-

would subject the profits to much
higher taxes than IL IL per cent as
provided now.
Representative Mills, Republican, of
New York, opposed the proposal

DAUGHERTY MAY
FACE CONGRESS
Attorney General Emphatic
in His Refusal to Quit
Under Fire.
WHITNEY ON STAND
Senate Oil Probers Continue il
Executive Session to Hear of
Oil Deals Today.

Washington.--Pre Coolidge
was advised today by Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, the Re-
publican senate leader, that there
is a growing sentiment in the Re-
publican senate organization in fa-
vOr of the retirement of Atty. Gen.
Daugherty. After Daugherty had
publicly defied his critics in a
formal statement, Mr.. Lodge and
Senator Pepper of Pennsylvania,
Republicans, went to the White
House and talked over the whole
subject with the president. The
Massachusetts senator frankly in
formed the chief executive of the
position taken by those on the Re-
publican side as voiced at several
conferences within the past few
hours. The consensus of opinion
in these conferences was said by
those who took part in them to
have been that Mr.. Coolidge should
clear his cabinet of the last of
those who have become storm CEN
ters in the oil scandal. Whether
the advice of the senate leaders
would be followed, was not imme-
diately apparent.
White House officials became iR-
creasiRgly reticent and refused to
discuss in any way reports that
Daugherty's resignation would be
requested. A few hours before the
attorney general had himself con-
ferred with the president and sf-
terward had issued statement de-
claring he was ready for finish
fight with those who have assisted
him in the senate. The statement
was accompanied by. assertions of
officials close to Daugherty that he
and Mr.. Coolidge had found them
selves in complete accord. Despite
his assurance, however, the belief
persisted in many official quarters
that the incident was by no meas
closed.
