NJ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
Headslatton to put manufacturers OF
concentrated fr1nC yaiceS under the Vol
stead prohibition act was introduced
today by Senator Sheppard, Democrat,
Texas.
He offered an amendment striking out
esN sentence in the Volstead act under
which the manufacturers of the grape
concentrates and fruit juices claimed
esthcrity for their products.
That tyzsance reads: 1.-THE penalties
provided in this act against the manu-
facture of liquor without permit snail
not apply to a person for manutactM-
ing Intoxicating cider and 1rult
Juices exclusively for use in his nome;

TAX ON FARMERS
IS HELD TOO HIGH
Prince Georges Grange Urges
Legislation to Name Spe-
CiaI Committee.
BY STAFF Correspondent Of The Star.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md, February
25.-The present session Of the Mary
land Legislature Is urged in a letter
written yesterday to the four largest
farm organizations in the State by Jo-
seph H Blandford, chairman of the
Tax Committee of Prince Georges
County Grange, and member of the
State Grange Tax Committee, to pro-
vide for the appointment by Gov
Richie of a special tax committee to
make a thorough study of State and
local finances and report its findings
and recommendations to a special ses-
sion or to the regular session of 1888.
Favors Extra Session.
Speaking concerning the matter Mr.
Blandford said that he would be In
favor of a special session to be called
for the specific purpose of considering
the question. The special tax commit
tee, he said, should be provided for in
bill and passed by the Legislature
with provision made for the expenses OF
the work
The letter was addressed to the Farm
Bureau, the State Grange. the Tobacco
Growers Association and the state
datrymen" requesting these bodies to
call joint meeting of their members
in the State House at Annapolis, for
the purpose of impressing upon the
Governor and Legislature the impor-
lance of supplementing the present gen.
eral property tax with an income tax
In his letter Mr. Blandford sets forth
that Investigations show chat farm
taxes are now more than two and one
half times as high as in 1914, while
farm profits are lower; that the average
labor income of the farmer before de-
Quoting taxes Is only $3.50 annually;
that more than 20 per cent of this in
come is taken in taxes, a percentage
which under the Federal income law
applies only to incomes of 100000 over
and above all exemptions.
Two Per Cent of Assessed Value.
He further states that farm taxes
amount annually to 2 per cent of the
assessed value of the property taxed
and that over 95 per cent of the cost of
county government, which includes
cost of roads, schools, public health, law
and order departments, ETC., is borne
by taxes on real estate, while vast
amounts of income derived from sources
not connected with the ownership of
property goes taxfree.
Intangible property, Mr.. Blandford'S
letter sets forth, is assessed at only
about one-fourth the rate of real estate
and that most of it is not assessed at
all, while everything the farmer has is
assessed. There is no relationship be-
tween the amount earned and the taxes
paid, the letter states but taxes must be
paid whether the farmer earns a profit
or SuStainS a loss. Farmers, the let
ter says, pay large tax from a small
income, while as a rule others pay a
small tax from a much larger income.

House Takes Final Step in Approx
ing Conference Report After

dayton the new traffic law for the Dis
trict when the House approved the con-
ference report on this measure. which
had already been approved by the Sen
ate. 1t now goes to the President for
his signature.

handled the issuing and revocation of
permits and the making of engineering
traffic surveys. Beginning with next
January all automobiles in the District
would have to be titled, and the titling
also would be handled through the de-
partment of vehicles.
Authority to make new traffic regula-
lions, including the fixing of speed
limits, would be centered in the District
Commissioners. The bill also eliminates
minimum penalties for certain traffic
offenses, thereby giving the court more

sional tags. These tags are intended
to assist members of the House and
Senate in parking their machines while
on official business at Government de-

LAME DUCK" PLAN
RESTS With NORRIS
House Substitute Measure
Would Limit Second Session
to Four Months.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Immediate submission to the States
or constitutional amendment abol-a
iShing the lame duck" session of Con-
gresS depended largely today on Sena-
tor Norris of Nebraska.
The House adopted n resolution for
such submission yesterday. 1t substi-
tuted measure of its own for the
similar Norris resolution already ap-
proved by the Senate, but by amend
ment it limited the second session of
Congress to four months.
This was distaStefull to Norris, who
has worked in season and out for the
constitutional change. He said he did
not see how the limitation could be
supported. If he decides to oppose the
House resolution it will go to confer
ence, and this late in the session NAV
very well die there.
LOngworth Leads Fight
House action came with Speaker
Longworth on the floor in behalf of
the measure. He it was who insisted
the second session be limited. The
resolution was adopted, 289 to 50, the
majority following Longworth, again
breaking away from Republican Leader
I1lson, who pleaded with the House
not to tinker with the Constitution.
Longworth pointed out that unless
the second term were limited Con-
gress might remain in session per
petually.
If finally approved the amendments
will go to the State Legislatures for
the usual process of ratification. It
would become effective as soon as 36 of
the 48 States have ratified. Thereafter
this would be the congressional sched-
ule:
Election in November each even year.
as at present.
First session conyenes January 4 of
following odd year; term unlimited.
Second session conveneS December I
odd year; adjourns May even year.
Inauguration January "a.
In addition the amendment would
have the President and Vice President
indicted January "a following the quad
rennial November election, instead Of
March 4. Provision also is included for
emergency election of a President If
the President-elect should die.
Longworth had opposed the resolu-
ton in its original form. The change
he sponsored would cleae the way for
the political conventions and campaigns.
as well as furnishing a legislative
breathing spell, he said. The House
agreed with him on the point. $50 to
148, with party lines split. More than
40 members joined in the six-hour dee
bate required to reach final passage.
Representative Clifford, Republican, of
Massachusetts, author of the resolution
approved, led the successful side, joined
by Crisp Of Georgia, chief Democratic
spokesman.
