ROADS TRYING
FOR A STRIKE,
SAYS JEWELL
HEAD OF SHOP CRAFTS SEES AN
ORGANIZED MOVEMENT TO
FORCE MEN'S HANDS
Chicago, Sept. 19. Charges that
railroads were attempting to force
their employes to strike were made
today by B. M. Jewell, head of the
railroad" department of the American
federation of labor.
Jewell gave this as the reason for
advising the membership of the shop
crafts against a strike in spite of the
fact that they have voted against ac
ceptance of the 12 per cent wage cut
which became effective July 1.
According to Jewell, the men will
vote,n the rules when they are an
nounced. The railroad board was expected
today to announce its decision on the
petition of the Pennsylvania railroad
that it be allowed to deal directly
with its own employes instead of
treating with union representatives.
Chicago, Sept. 19. The immediate
danger of a railroad strike had been
averted today.
In spite of tho fact that shop em
ployes of the roads have voted- over
whelmingly against acceptance of the
12 per cent of the slash in wages,
which became effective July 1st, Tn
orders of the United States railroad
labor board, the dcision has been
reached to hold up further action un
til the board announces the new
working rules now being formulated.
I?. M. Jewell, head of the railroad
department of the American, federa
tion of labor, which includes the
federated shou crafts, made this an
nouncement at a mass meeting of the
rail employes here yesterday.
According to Jewell another ballot
will be taken when the rule3 are an
nounced and if the membership votes
against acceptance, then a fight will
be waged before the railroad board
Strike will be called if necessary,
Jewell stated.
Executives of railroads and repre
sentatives of unions are holding
meetings over the country to formu
late a new set of rules. The war time
working rules were abrogated sever
al months ago by the board.

Washington. Sept. 19. The tax
revision bill will be sent to the pres
ident by late October, Chairman Pen
rose predicted today in announcing
that the senate finance committee
had formally approved tho house
measure as amended.
Neither the Smoot manufacturers'
sales tax nor the Calder proposal to
impose a tax of $6.49 a gallon on all
alcoholic liquors withdrawn from
bond for other than manufacturing
purposes will be included in the
measure as it will be presented to
the senate Wednesday. The authors
have given notice, however, that
they expect to present these amend
ments in the senate.
Expects Opposition
Senator Penrose said that it was
the plan to take the bill up imme
diately and press for final action.
He added that some features, partic
proposed reduction of the maximum
income surtax rate to 32 per cent.
would be opposed from "certain
quarters," but that there seemed to
bo a desire to expedite passage.
"Under these circumstances," he
continued, "there is reasonable ex
pectation that the bill can be passed
in the senate with two weeks' con
sideration, and ought not to require
more than a week in conference."
While treasury experts have yet
to complete their final estimate as
to the total revenue that probably
will be realized this fiscal year un
der the measure, it was stated that
the amount would not be less than
J3, 200, 000. 000, the minimum which
Secretary Mellon informed the com
mittee would be necessary. For the
next fiscal year the return would be
around .$2,700,000,000.
To Cut Amusement Tax
The Smoot sales tax plan was dis
cussed further Jn the committee to
day with treasury experts part lei
pating, but Chairman Penrose said
Senator Smoot had stated afterwards
that he was willing not to press the
amendment In the committee, but
would reserve the right to submit
it to the senate. The committee did
not take a vote on the proposal.
Before finally approving the bill.
the committee voted two additional
changes. Under one amusement ad
mission, charges not exceeding 10
cents would be exempt from the 1
cent tax imposed by the present law,
Under the other hotels would pay a
tax of 10 per cent on the amount
charged to transients for rooms, if
the sum exceeds $5 for one person
and $S for two persons.

The average increase in the cost of
living was 1.7 per cent.
"This rise leaves the decline since
the peak of high prices in July, 1920,
at 19.4 per cent and brings the total
net increase since June, 1914, back
to 65 per cent," the board said.
Clothing prices also Increased dur
ing August 1.3 per cent and the ad
vent of cold weather has brought the
price of coal up considerably more
than that.
LOST HIS SHOE
One of our staid and reliable resi
dents. Charles II. Warner, was busily
engaged today in looking for one of
his shoes, and if it had been almost
anyone else might have aroused sus
picion as to how. and where the shoe
was lost, but Mr. Warner has a per
fectly good alibi as to how the shoe
came to be lost. 4
It seems during the storm a few
Avenlnn vn Mr. Warner was down
. town, and as tjne water got quite deep
wade er like he used to do when a
kid and accordingly tied the pair of
shoes on the auto. He then forgot
all about the shoes until returning
home yesterday he saw one of the
shoes lying in the roadway and he
then realized that he was shy a part
of his footgear and as they were his
best shoes he was rather anxious to
recover them. So far nothing has
been heard of the other shoe and if
the party finding it does not want to
return it he can have the other one,
Mr. Warner says by calling, as one
shoe is of little use to a perfectly
good two-legged man.
