Wilson May Drop
Freight Tax Clause
WASHINGTON, Sept. !.-lresldent
Wilson probably will no. endorse a
freight tax In the war revenue bill In
the face of party opposition. Chairman
l'nder-ood of the ways and means com
mittee called off a meeting of the com
mittee today pending tho president's re
turn to Washington.
t'nleas the president s-iys to us that
we must have thla freight tax," said
Mr. Vnderwood. "we will drop It Im
medlstely. We cannot pass It without
the president's request.
Several protests sgalnat the proposed
JO-cent tax on domestic wines were re
ceived today from California wine grow
ers' associations, who maintained It
would put the growers out ot business.
The committee has beard from one of
the western associations that It would
not protest against a tax of 10 cents a
gallon. Treasury department official
had recommended a tax of 50 rents a
gallon.
Among numerous substitutes for the
committee's plan waa one presented today
by Senator Robinson of Arkansas. It
would tax automobiles M cents or $1 a
horsepower: certain aoda fountain drinks
10 cents a gallon; beer, an additional AO
oenta a barrel and an additional tax on
cigarettes.
RAILROADS WOULD LIFT
LOW PASSENGER RATES
(From a Staff Correspondent )
LINCOLN, Set. 14. tSpecial.)-Mcm-bers
of the state railway commission
say that there Is going to be un effort
made by the railroads to have the pas
senger rate raised from 1 cents per mile
to thi cents.
The roads say that their Income has
been cut so much by freight reductions
that It will be necessary to ralne pas
senger rates. In order to meet the situa
tion. They say also that automobiles
have cut In heavily on the passenger
revenues of the roads and take the two
together It has become a serious problem
for the roads to meet.
It Is probable that tho commissions of
the various states will combine to fight
the actions of the roads, which will ap
ply only in western territory.
