When the proposal was made to in
clude on this program a bill urged
by the Commissioners to harmonize
the law with existing conditions since
the change has been made in the sys-
tenn of taxation. Representative Blan-
ton objected because he said the whole
fiscal system should be fixed in one
measure and that piecemeal adjust
ments would still further delay adop-
ton of a comprehensive program.
This bill would increase the number
of assessors from five to six, the sixth
assessor now being provided for in
appropriation bills without substantive
authority.
1t would provide for full assess
ments for purposes of taxation and
other changes, in view of the District
now getting on pay-as-yoV- go
basis. 1t would define who are fesi-
dents of the District for purposes of
taxation.
While this bill was under discus
sion Representative Hammer of North
Carolina insisted that Congress should
repeal the law which allows sooth-
sayers and fortune tellers to be
licensed.

Chile went through an overturn In
her government last September. when
the army officers caused the political
cabinet in power to withdraw, and
what was termed a non-political
ministry was installed. President
Alessandri was virtually forced to re-
sign and he subsequently departed
from the country.
Since that time the government
has been conducted by a military
1unta, which only recently announced
plans for the holding of presidential
election next, May.
A cabinet crisis occurred in De-
cember last, featured by number of
army Incidents which brought about
the shifting of the commanders of
several regiments. There was con
siderable stir over the removal of
Col. Ewing from his command of the
"Carabineros, or military police. A
new cabinet. headed by Rafael Luis
Barahona, took the oath of office on
December 19.
1t has been known that junior army
officers recently held several meet

Chile, and it has been predicted that
a protest by these officers might be
undertaken, with serious consequences

Park Site Surrey

President Coolidge approves the
proposed appropriation of $4,000 for
preliminary survey of the Blue
Ridge Mountains of Virginia and the
Smoky Mountains of the Carolinas as
possible sites for new national parks.
Director Lord of the Budget Bureau
will transmit this recommendation to
Congress.
The establishment of r national
park in the Blue Ridge Mountains al
ready has been recommended by

partment and the proposal approved
by Secretary Work. Legislation now
is pending to establish such park
and the proposal also has been ad-
vanced that another park be certified

Representative Rathbone endeavor-
ed to obtain the appointment of a
subcommittee of five members which
would consider a resolution he pro-
poses to introduce calling for an in
vestigation as to whether there is
profiteering in the necessities Of life
in the National Capital. Representa-
tive Blanton objected because there
were SO many important questions in
volved that 1t would be impossible to get
any action before March 4. Repre-
sentative Rathbone served notice that
he would bring this matter up at the
next regular meeting.
The general sentiment expressed
by members Of the committee was
that the Cramton proposal providing
for a lump sum contribution by the
Federal Government in support of the
National Capital in lieu of the 40
per cent contribution which is now
substantive law, has no chance of be-
ing added to the District surplus bill
when 1t comes up for a vote on Mon

POSTAL PAY BILL
GIVEN CLEAR ROAD
Point of Order Eliminating

by 5O-to-29 Vote.

The postal pay and rate increase bill
was left intact in the Senate today by
the defeat of the point of order which
would have eliminated bodily the por-
ton Of the bill carrying the rate ad-

The vote of so to 30 by which the
point of order was defeated late yester-
day apparently gives the bill a clear
road in the Senate, although considera-
bic debate and some changes in the rate
increase provisions are in prospect. 1t

Shortly afterward the junta govern

''junta gobierno" was formed
Want Alessandri Back.
Ex-President Alessandri has been
urgently requested to return from Italy
and resume the presidency of the re-

The new 'junta gobierno" issued
manifesto tonight in which it declares
that the men responsible for the move
ment in September (when the govern
ment under President Alessandri was
overthrown) have decided to depose the
chiefs who betrayed our confidence and
maliciously deviated from our program.
The manifesto recites the history
of past months tending to show that
the government gradually had taken
sides politically with the National
Union party, which it declares is a
reactionary minority, and was de-
livering the country up to an
oligarchy.
