A general tax bill that has for

instead of the 371a that finally
was agreed upon between the
warning Republican factions in the
House, and Incorporated in the
LOngworth compromise, was in
prospect today as the Senate
Finance Committee continued to
wrestle with the measure.
"A survey of sentiment in the
Senate indicated that it is going

1t was designed to force a show.

bill. possibly to further demonstrate
to President Coolidge the utter
hopelessness of trying to pass the

Surgent Republicans plan to get
their own figures into the bill.
They plan to leave the normal
tax as fixed by Longworth at per

tax to 40 per cent. Some are even
predicting "A per cent but the
majority opinion favors 30.
The lineup in the Senate is al.
most identical with that of tbs
House-the Republican regulars

Insurgents favoring so per cent,
and the Democrats striking the mid

surgents will come down to the
Democratic figure because they
have no other place to go. And, AZ
demonstrated in a score of tests,
the Democrats and the Insurgents
can control legislation any time
they stick together.
Coolidge Remains Silent.
While this situation is wellknown
to the White House. President
Coolidge remains noncommital as to
his own attitude toward the COM
promise measure.
He has consistently declined to
state his position toward the Long
worth compromise, and those who
have talked tax matters with him
differ in their opinions as to his
course once the general tax bill Is
put on his desk.
Had the resolution providing q
separate Is per cent reduction on
1928 incomes gone through, as
urged by the President and Secre-
tary Mellon, there is little doubt
that he would have vetoed the gen

fortunes on the November referen-

will go to the Democratic conven.
ton with greater support than
any other candidate.
In think II 1t had not been for
the oil situation McAdoo would
surely have been nominated. He
will still be strong before the con.
vention. but il the oil situation
is to be the chief issue Of the
campaign, 1t seems to me prob.
able the Democratic convention
will nominate some one who will
have more strength on this issue
than McAdoo has-someone who
can put up an offensive, not q
defensive campaign.
Personally, like McAdoo for
his progressive qualities, but the
convention is bound to consider
the politics Of the situation.
G-Do you believe the Senate
" committee investigating Attor-
ney General Daugherty has ad-
duced any evidence that would
justify President Coolidge's ask.
ing for Daugherty's resignation?
ASKS FAIR TRIAL.
Ny whole contention in regard
to Attorney General Daugherty
is that he should not be sentenced
before he is tried. Any man is
entitled to a fair trial, and then
to a judgment based on the evi.
dence. I do not know anything
about Attorney General Daugh-
erty's case except what 1 have
seen Of the testimony Of certain
people in the papers. But it sort
Of seems to me that when the
prosecution depends so largely on
the testimony of indicted rascals
and confessed prevaricators, there
must be certain dearth of repu.
table testimony.
Perhaps more credible testi-
mony will be adduced later. 1
think the public is waiting for
that before it forms a definite
opinion.
7-Proceedings looking to the
. criminal prosecution Of the
individuals who sought to exploit
the naval oil reserves to the dis
advantage of the Government
having been begunS do you be-
lieve there is any real justifica-
ton for the continued activities
Of the so-called oil committee,
which now appears to be purely
political?
I do not think the activities of
the oil committee should be dis
continued as long as there is a
reasonable chance Of getting any
further evidence of value In the
exposure Of this oil corruption.
But very little evidence Of value
has been secured Of late. and the
activities Of the oil committee
certainly should not go so far
afield as to distract attention
from the important matter in
hand, which is the proper punish.
ment Of the proven guilty in this
oil corruption.
Exposure is all very we'll as
far as il" goes. A few Jail SEN
fences will better satisfy the re.
. sentiment and indignation Of the
public.
Personally, think law should
be passed which could deprive
any. man Of his citizenship and Of
his right to own property in
this country If he were proved
to have sought to debauch our
public life and undermine our
political institutions by corrupting
a public official.
/ do not think there is any
greater crime in a Republic, nor
that any punishment is too
severe for such a crime. The
great object Of the present prose
cution should be to see that no
plainly guilty man escapes his
deserved punishment.
