VICTORY in the conference was won
by the senate high tax bloc, for
the house conferees accepted virtual
" all the senate increases in estate
and gift taxes, the capital stock and
excess profits taxes and liberal COM
promises over income-tax publicity and
consolidated returns.
The conference agreement was COM
plete except for the Couzens amend
ment, adding 10 per cent to all individ-
ual income-tax returns next year.
The house will take a separate vote
on this, and 1t was believed the senate
would not insist on it if it were re-
jected by the house.
With the revenue bill thus disposed
of, the senate finance committee be-
gan public hearings on the admins
tration's reciprocal tariff bill, which
the house has passed.
GENATORS who urge the remonetiz-
~ alton of silver held conference
with President Roosevelt but received
from him no encouragement for silver
legislation, though no conclusion was
reached. The possibility of silver pur-
chases was discussed and the President
indicated a disposition to give this
matter consideration, but on the whole
there was no indication the govern
ment will embark on such policy.
The silver senators were not at all
satisfied with the Presidents attitude
and held a meeting at which eight
voted to support mandatory legisla-
ton for the benefit of silver.
Later it was reliably stated that the
President was maturing plan for in
fernational sterilization of currencies
and that silver figures prominently in
1t. Mr.. Roosevelt, 1t was revealed, IA
vors the inclusion of silver IN the met
al base Of currency issues to the ex-
tent of 30 per cent, the remaining 70
per cent to be gold. This change can
be safely made, however, the President
points out, only by international agree
ment whereby all the signatory nations
would admit silver to their reserves
against which paper money is issued.
In the London economic and none
tary conference Senator Key Pittman
offered such plan, proposing that CEN
tra1 banks keep 20 per cent. or one
fifth, Of their metal cover or reserve
for currency in silver The proposal
was not acted on at the conference.

the impending raid on the camp

Some hours after the battles in Wis
consin three members of the gang were
seen by three deputy sheriffs in

trio escaped and stole an automobile

Federal and local officials through

OSCAR DE PRIEST, negro con-
" gresham from Chicago, won a
victory In his fight to remove the house
restaurant bar against members Of his
race. He obtained adoption Of his
resolution for investigation of the
right of Lindsay Warren of North
Carolina to fix the rules and regula-
lions for the restaurant-which of
course doesn't mean that negroes will
be served in that dining room. The
vote was 237 to ia, and the balloting
followed the Mason and Dixon line al
most without exception.
Mr.. De Priest showed his wisdom
when he learned that some Commu-
mist organizations were planning TO
take advantage of the occasion by
staging a demonstration against Jim
Crowism.g He said no friend Of his
would take part in this.

Bistant secretary can now be appoint
ed who will relieve Mr.. Wallace and
Mr.. Tugwell Of some of their heavy
duties. The department has been con-
sidered understaffed. The post OF
undersecretary was created by a re-
cent act Of congress.
Tugwell's appointment will have to
be confirmed by the senate, and 1t was
considered certain the Republicans
would take advantage of the opportu-
nifty to make fresh attacks on him and
his theories of government.
The President also advanced Thorn
as Jefferson Coolidge, a Boston bank
er, from assistant secretary to under
secretary Of the treasury, which posi-
ton had been vacant since Raymond
Moley stepped out. The higher per-
sonnet of that department is now be-
ing placed on a permanent basis for
the first time since Henry Morgenthau,
Jr., became its head.
NTEMBERS of the American Society
AVA of Newspaper Editors assembled
In Washington heard warm and elab-
crate defense Of the New Deal deliv
cred by Professor Tugwell, who Is
in part responsible for most of the
recovery measures adopted by the
present administration. Denying that
those who are advising the President
seek to bring about radical changes
in the life and economic policies Of the
American people, Professor Tugweu
described himself as a Thorough con-
sentative"
1--WE have a saving irreverence OF
authority" said Professor Tugwell In
speaking Of the characteristics OF the
American people, (which gets US out OF
holes. These basic traits determine
the structure of our laws and Of our
government. No one, with the slight
est sense Of history, would try to fit
such a people into regimented
scheme, would try to think for them
instead of getting them to think for
themselves.
"The New Deal Is not something
which can establish itself in the mind
of a dictator or a small governing
group. That was the fatal theory Of
the system from which we are turning
away. Its base has to be as broad as
the economy which has to be brought
under control and as deep as the minds
and the hearts of the people whom it
affects"

OFFICIALS of the Department of
~ Agriculture believe the wheat
carry-over into 1885 may amount to
34O,O0O,O00 bushels, and are studying
the export markets to find a possible
outlet for part Of it. But they cannot
develop an export policy until the
work Of the international wheat con-
ference at Rome is completed.
The wheat carry-over on July 1 this
year is expected to be about 265,000,-
900 bushels, to which may be added
75,OOO,OO0 bushels surplus from this
years prospective crop of 700,0O0,0O0
bushels.
Secretary Wallace has suggested
that processing taxes on wheat might
be increased and that the amount of
the tax ear-marked to promote ex-
ports might be raised from to or
even 8 cents.
A scent tax on the 400,000,000 BUSH
els yearly processing of taxable wheat
would return approximately $20,000,-
900, compared with the 100000 to
be spent in exporting wheat this year.
This total would be sufficient to ex-
port about the 100000 bushel quota
given the United States under the in
ternational agreement on the basis Of
the differential of 221s cents. between
the domestic and world prices.

IN AN extemperaneous address at an
exhibition in connection with the
federal subsistence homestead prof.
ects, Mr.. Roosevelt anwered various
critics of his administration with the
declaration that the New Deal Is a
program of evolution, not revolution.
Praising the homestead system as
one of the administrations foremost
achievements in helping depression
stricken families to gain fresh start
in life, Mr.. Roosevelt denied charges
that the program contemplated ''regi-
mentation" of great numbers of people.
"There is no RECOMMENDATION" the
President said. 1--WE are not going to
take people by force from one COM
munity and put them in another"

MYTH unexpected celebrity the rail-
w way executives and rail union
chiefs reached an accord in the wage
dispute, and the danger of strike
was averted for another year. At the
instance Of President Roosevelt but
without government interference they
worked out their own settlement after
the federal negotiators had failed to
get results and Co-ordinator Joseph B.
Eastman had withdrawn as mediator.
Under the arrangement decided
upon the 10 per cent wage cut which
has prevailed in the railroads during
the last two years is to be gradually
wiped out in the next twelve months.
Two and a half per cent of the exist
ing wage cut is to be restored July /,
another 21k per cent on January 1,
and the remaining 5 per cent on April
/, 1885.
In other words, instead of 10 per
cent cut rail workers will have only a
71s per cent cut prevailing between
July 1 and January 1, per cent cut
prevailing between January l and
April 1, and full pay restoration after
April 1.
These terms worked out by the en-
ployers and employees are actually
more favorable to the workers than
the terms which President Roosevelt
twice asked them to accept.
When informed Of the settlement,
Mr.. Roosevelt said:
II am very glad that the railroads
and their employees have been able to
settle their wage dispute by mutual
agreement. The country should be,
and will be, grateful to them for this
disposition of what might have de-
veloped into a troublesome contro-
versy. I congratulate both sides on
fha wisdom and restraint which thew

3-GAME
SERIES
BY GARRETT WATERS

Baseball rivalries are uncom-
mon events among the sandlot-
ters. But in most every case
where they occur, they're quite
interesting.
Take the scheduled game Sum-
day at Ballston between the
Arlington and Ballston mines
for example. Plenty of rivalry
exists there, since the two teams
have been playing for the Arling-
ton County championship for the
past 10 years.
The eleventh clash promises to
be as heated, if not more so,
than any of the previous meet
ingS between the contenders.
Arlington Underdog
Arlington will 60 into battle
the underdog, chiefly because it
lost the title the past four years.
But the Arlington lads have an
idea different story will rule
this year, since they've pointed
for this particular game.
They base one big hope of vic.
tory on Jim Titcomb, their
pitcher. This lad has been a SEN
Sation all year, having jumped
into active sandlot play shortly
following the ending of school last
spring. Titcomb hurled for the
Alexandria High nine.
Second Game at Arlington
The series will be of three
games. The second game will be
played on the Arlington diamond
a week from Sunday, with the
third, if necessary, at Ballston.
Ballston will send its pitching
ace, "Snub" Lacey, to the mound
Sunday. Lacey has experienced
very successful season and his
teammates believe he'll carry on.
Both Arlington and BallSton
competed in league competition
this season in the Northern Vir-
ginia League. Arlington finished
in second place in Section A of
the circuit, while BallSton was
runner.up in Section B.
