CUT Is PASSED
Reductions Exceed Limit Set by
i Secretary Mellon by
SIPS, 600, 900.

Washington-The senate passed the
tax reduction bill, providing saving
of $456, 100000 in taxes this year to
federal taxpayers, and sent it to con-
ference for adjustment of differences
with the house.
Passage of the bill. which came
suddenly and somewhat as surprise
even to senate leaders, is expected to
assure benefits of the proposed tax
cut in the payment of first income tax
installments March Is. Thirty-four
Republicans and "a Democrats voted
for the measure, while six Repub-
licans, two, Democrats and the one
Farmer-Labor member opposed 1t.
The administration has declared the
extent of reduction provided By the
bill excessive, but confidence vas ex-
pressed at the White House that the
measure, as finally drafted by the con-
ference committee, would lower the
total cuts to within limits acceptable
to President Coolidge.

Arbitration Eliminated From All
Future Negotiations, Secre-
iary Davis Announces

Washington-Secret of Labor j.

the anthracite coal strike at the
White House The terms of the set
Element, Davis said. were:
A five-year wage contract: no in
crease in pay; modified checkoff.
Davis later explained the terms.
giving two additional important claus
es. One is that changes in the wage
scale may be made by mutual agree
ment at any time The other was
that arbitration is eliminated from
any future negotiations. Concerning
the wage scale, Davis said the miners
are to return at the same wages re-
ceiyed at the time the suspension
started last September 1.
"At the request of either miners or
operators wage negotiations may be
opened at any time, under the agree
ment and what changes are decided
upon will be the result Of collective
bargaining Mining will be resumed
Immediately after ratification of the
contract by the miners at their tri-
district convention in Hazelton, Pa,
Davis said. Ratification Of the agree
ment is merely a formality. Davis
credited Governor William G.. Sproul
OF Pennsylvania with much of the
success attending the settlement.
while the contract runs for only
five years, it will be 20 years before
we see or hear of another general
strike in the anthracite region" Davis
predicted.

lage of Askov met in said village
on Feb. 18th, 1925. All members
present.

read and approved.
DR.. Fenger, health officer, ap-
peared before the council to dis
cuss measures to safeguard the
public against accidents on the
Fourth of July He stated that
the great reduction in accidents
last Fourth, as compared with
former years was largely due to
two facts, namely that the dam
gers connected with the use of
fire works was told and discussed
with the children in the school
rooms, and that authorities
passed ordinances regulating or
prohibiting the sale of fire works.
The council appreciated that DIR.
Fenger called their attention to
this matter and suggested that
he take this up with the school
also.
The clerk was instructed to ask
Mr.. Danielson to answer the let
ter received by the council from
the G. N. R. R. Co.. concerning
that company assuming the cost
of current used in the light at
the R. R. crossing in the village.
