to perfect as much as possible team
batting methods that would score the
run or two which the Reds so often

One point must not be overlook ed
which faVors the Reds. Roush is
with them at the Very start of the
season. In other years he hasn't re-
ported for spring training because of
salary differences. This year he looks
fit and is fielding beautifully. If his
absence from the team meant 4 diff
ference OF ten games, as some critics
have computed, Cincinnati is q whole
lot better of. Even five games more
in the won column would go a long
way toward winning the pennant.
The other great factor is the pitch
erS. There is no need to take into
account the remaining infielders and
outfielders, who seem to be up To last
years standards. The catchers are
admirable. If the Reds can field and
bat as we'll as they did last year, will
the pitchers pull them through?

SCHOOL YEAR
ROUND PLAN
Ryder School Board Head
Holds it Is Economy

Ryder, N. D., April 5.-A IL month
school, consisting of 48 school weeks,
has been proposed here by B. A.
Dickinson, president of the board of
education of the Ryder special school
district, as an economy measure, and
means whereby the district may run
it's school on revenue limited by
law to about $1,000.
Under the plan, the faculty would
be reduced from seven to five teach
ters. The remaining five teachers
would be asked to teach at the same
yearly salary as is now being paid.
This would reduce the expenditure
FOR the ensuing school year by about
$4,000
Mr.. Dickinson takes the view that
a cut in teachers salaries or cut in
the school term means loss in eff
cheney.
In assuming that teachers might
consent to teach 12 school months of
four weeks each at the same salary
Mr.. Dickinson points out that in
passing the, teachers minimum wage
law, the argument was advanced that
the teacher must receive a years
wage regardless of the fact that they
teach only nine months in the calen-
dar year and because they are often
unable to and should not be required
to find employment during the re-
naming three months.

REVENUE BILL
, DRAFT NEARING
SENATE REPORT
>vFails by $47,OOO,OOO to Yield
Revenue Needed For The
Next Year, SmOOt Says
RESTORE SOME ITEMS
Practically All Miscellaneous
Reductions Made by
House Go Through
RESTORE SOME ITEMS

Washington, April 5.-Finishing
touches were put on the revenue bill
by the Senate finance committee and
report of the measure by next Mon
day or Tuesday was promised by
Chairman Smoot.
Most of the miscellaneous and eX-
else tax reductions made by the
House were approved by the commit
tee including its work on the rate
schedules.
The present tax on telegraph and
telephone messages, eliminated by
the House, however, was restored to
the bill as were the leyies on bill
lard and pool tables and bowling al
leys. The former involved $34 100000
in revenue annually, it was estimat-
ed, and the latter about 81 ,050,C0O.
Restoration of these taxes, coupled
with other changes in the bill passed
by the House, leaves the measure by
about $47,000,000 short of raising
sufficient revenue the next fiscal
year, Mr.. Smoot declared, but he pre-
dicted this could be met through
\ probable increases in actual revenue
returns over Treasury estimates.
This prospective deficit does not in
clude further losses in funds which
the government would face with pass
age of special appropriation bills
now pending and the soldier bonus
bill.
Odds and ends of the bill were
considered today by the committee
at morning and afternoon sessions
made possible by adjournment of the
Senate last night until Monday, at
the request of the committee.
