The house late today passed in amended form the Sheppard-Towner maternity bill, previously approved by the senate. The measure goes to conference. The vote was 279 to 39. During debate Miss Alice M. Robertson, re publican, Oklahoma, only woman member of the bouse, urged defeat of the bill, while its passage was ad vocated by. Representative Mondell, republican leader. The bill provides co-operation be tween the federal government and states in the protection of maternity and infancy. It provides that $10,000 of fed eral funds shall be turned over to each state before July 1 and that annually for five years $1,240,000 shall be available. The federal gov ernment would contribute . $5,000 each year after July 1 to each state and an additional $5,000 provided the state contributes a like amount. The balance of the annual fund would be distributed among states according to population, with each state required - to match the contri butions of the federal government. Miss Robertson took a fling at club women, who, she said, sit at ease in comfortable homes worrying about other people's children and get a thrill over teacups by - passing resolutions designed to bring about a new order in governmental affairs. She declared that the bill would interfere with effective work being done by individuals and by state, municipal and private agencies. , "I'm not a mother, you know," she said, "but God has given me a mother's heart."

OLSON, Plattsmouth -:- Nebraska TAX REVISION MEAS URE BACK TO HOUSE Corporation Tax Rate Set at 12Vj Hope for Quick Action in Reaching Agreement Washington, Nov. 19. The tax revision bill came through its third rewriting today, and will be return ed to the house Monday. Republican leaders are hopeful that the final step In its enactment can be taken in time to permit congress to end its special session Wednesday. Only five of the ten conferees have signed the conference report. The democrats refused to sign and Sen ator Smoot of Utah, republican, pro ponent of the sales tax, withheld his signature. He said it was his inten tion to study the bill to see whether it was any improvement over exist ing law. House leaders plan to put the . bill through the house Monday so that the senate will have two days to consider it before the time tentatively fixed for adjournment. -''In closing their work today, the conferees" fixed the corporation in come tax. rate at. 12 per cent, the figure .in the original house bill. This increases the present rate by 2 per cent. Agree on Liquor Tax. The conferees agreed .to the orig inal house provision ' relating to liquor taxes. This retains the pres ent tax of $2.20 a gallon on distilled spirits, with a provision for- an ad ditional tax of $4.20 a gallon on such spirits diverted for beverage pur poses. The conferees retained the senate amendment repealing the normal exemption of $2,000 allowed corpora tions, but the repeal would not ap ply in the case of corporations hav ing net incomes of $25,000 or less. A new provision for taxing gain from the sale of capital assets was written in. It Is limited to individ uals and provides that if the tax payer elects to make a separate re turn for the taxation of his income from the sale of capital assets, he shall pay a tax on the gain at the corporation rate of 12 per cent on the total of the gain. v Cuts Revenue $130,000,000 In reducing the proposed corpora tion income tax rate the conferees reduced by $130,000,000 the esti-j mated return from tbe bill. Treas-i ury experts had calculated that the! senate rate would yield $260,000,000 additional from the corporations, the increase through this source being! designed as a partial offset against the loss of $450,000,000 to result from repeal of the excess profits tax. Some estimates were that from $150,000,000 to $200,000,000 had been, cut from the bill, which, as it passed the senate, was designed tol yield approximately $3,300,000,000, or f lightly less than the total treas-' ury officials told the senate finance committee in September would be necessary.

PATTERSON, Cashier SOUTHERN SENATORS IN AN ANGRY CLASH Watson and Williams Debate Rela tive Merits of Newberry and Ford in the Senate. Washington, Nov. 21. The Ford Newberry senatorial election contest in Michigan was laid aside by the senate tonight, probably not to come formally before the body again for several weeks. After a day of discus sion, in which Henry Ford, who is contesting the seating of Senator Newberry, was both denounced and defended and which was enlivened by a tilt between Senator Williams of Mississippi and Watson of Georgia, democrats, the election controversy was sidetracked to make way for the revenue "bill. No agreement as to date for a vote was reached. The clash between Senators Wil liams and Watson developed when the latter attacked Mr. Ford and de clared that "left over Wilsonites" in the senate were seeking to retire Mr. Newberry because he had opposed , the league of nations. I Mr. Williams said he regarded Mr. Ford as "so far superior in altruism, in world sense and in world vision to the senator from Georgia (Mr. I Watson) and myself, that I can hard ly find words to express it." He was interrupted by Mr. Watson, who de clared he had not asked a "clean bill of health" from Mr. Williams and ad ded: "I stated that the war depart ment records show that in various items paid Henry Ford, he was paid for materials never delivered, one item being for tractors and the amount was $5,000,000; that he kept his eon out of war when the sons of Senator Newberry .were In the war. Mr. Watson also Charged that Mr. Ford had assessed his employes, "blackmailed" them he said, for $50, 000 for his "expense account." Mr. Williams denied Mr. Ford had ever done such a thing. Mr. Wiliams attempted to continue, but Mr. Watson was shouting, "It's falre," other senators were peeking recognition from the chair and Sena tor Heflin, democrat, Alabama, who had held the floor when the ex changes began, was vainly trying to make himself heard. Mr. Watson and Mr. Williams, with two desks between them, stood glaring at each other when order was restored. Mr-. Williams, without another word, picked up his hat and walked out. VANDERV0RT HELD AS SLAYER Wilmington, O., Nov. 21.
