BUILDERS SHUN
TRUCE TALKS
ON PAY GUT
Assert Determination to Fill
Carpenters Jobs From Ranks
of Nonunion JobIeSs

A finish fight over reduc-
tions in wage scales in the
building trades is threatened
in the National Capital.
The walkout of union car
penters, ordered yesterday by
L. H. Hardison, president of
the Carpenters Council of the
District, on jobs that do not
pay the union price of $1l a
day, may be joined by other
locals, it is claimed.
The fight was precipitated by
an ultimatum issued by the Mas
ter Builders Association week
ago in which members agreed TO
cut the pay scale from $11 daily
to a maximum of So.
To Shun Negotiations
Following the orders for a
walk out" yesterday, j. R. Skin
ker, president of the Master Build
ers, said his organization would
not negotiate further with the
union and that strikers would be
replaced with men, both union
and nonunion who would work on
an open-shop basis for a mini
mum wage and a maximum OF So.
About 200 are employed.
The Master Builders, according
to Frank j. Sheehan, secretary,
has a mounting list Of hundreds
of applicants who are willing to
work for the designated scale.
Sympathy Strike Seen
While insisting that a general
trades strike is not expected,
officials of the employers organi-
zation admitted there is a posi-
bility of a sympathetic strike by
other trades mechanics.
A reduced pay schedule has been
put into effect in leading mill
work shops and wage slash for
finishers and rodmen in the en-
ploy of the Cement Contractors
Association will be announced
shortly. it is said.
The carpenters strike is to be
directed from the general office
in Indianapolis, according to w. L.
Allen, who arrived yesterday to
stay until the dispute is settled.

VOTE
POSTAGE RISE
PERMANENCE
Make Specific Repeal of Rate
Necessary; Fix AGENT Tax
on Bond Transfers

After making all postal rate
increases and proposed excise
taxes permanent, the Senate
Finance Committee today
awaited final estimates from
the Treasury on the estimated
revenue of the tax increase bill
before staging a final battle
over the sales tax.
If the Treasury declares the
estimated revenue Of the bill will
fail to balance the budget, there
is possibility that some modi-
fled form of the sales tax will
be adopted by the committee.
A strong committee faction has
demanded a balanced budget
through increased taxation since
the House economy drive has
proved failure.
Effective Till Repealed
The new postal rates would be
made permanent by the commit
tees action in striking out a
House provision limiting them to
one year. The same thing oc-
CURED in imposing excise taxes.
This means that if the House
concurs, the Scent first-class post
age rate and the incrHased Sec
ond-clasS mail rates will be effec-
tive until repealed by an express
act of Congress.
In a desperate effort to raise
additional revenue, the commit
tee put a 2-cent stamp tax on all
checks, eliminating the House ex-
emption on checks below SIS. .
This will bring in $35, 900
more.
A 4 per cent stamp tax was
placed on all bond transfers,
eliminating the House provision
for a minimum tax of 1s of l per
cent.
100 Per Cent WrOng-Reed
Senator Reed CR.) of Pennsyl-
vania, declared this tax would
have the effect of abolishing the
bond market and creating boot
leg market on the streets. He
said:
"ThiS bill is going to hit hon.
est people. But then we are
batting about 100 per cent
wrong on everything. Have you
ever heard a fire engine outside
the house? Well that's the way
the taxpayers is going to clamOr
when we finish this bill"
UNFAIR Burden"
Reed said the tax on stock loans
was eliminated because it would
have been an unfair burden on
the little investor dealing in the
market from long distance. He
said:
"It would have meant that
when the little fellow out in
San Francisco wants to sell
stock which he may own out
right he would have had to pay
three transfer taxes. He deals
by telegraph or telephone and
consequently the broker in New
York has to borrow stock tenn
pOrarily to complete the little
fellows order"
The committee revised it's de-
ciSion to include pistols and re-
volvers in the 10 per cent tax
on firearms and adopted the
House provision exempting these
weapons.
The motion to reconsider the
tax on pistols and revolvers was
made by Senator Bingham (R.)
of Connecticut. who successfully
sponsored their exemption.
The rates on life insurance re-
serve funds were reconsidered
with view to lowering them, but
the committee decided to leave
them at 4, az and 3 per cent.
