    G. 0. P. Chiefs at
Work on Plan for
Tax Compromise
G. 0. P. Chiefs Attempt to
Unite Forces for Last Standi
Against Democratic
Income Rales.
Washington, Feb. 27.—Approach of
final action on the revenue bill in the
house brought forth a whirl of con
ferences among republicans today in
a feverish attempt to unite their
forces for a stand against the demo
cratic income rates. A compromise
advanced by the organization leaders
was the subject of the conferences
held after the house had |djourped
following the Harding memorial serv
!c es without consideration of the bill
on the floor.
Representative I.ongWOrth, republi
can leader, after presenting Ilia com
promise to insurgent leaders at a
meeting with the steering committee
acid the situation was unchanged,
with the prospects of republicans gain
ing sufficient strength to defeat the
Garner rates a “toss up.”
Representative Frear, republican
insurgent, Wisconsin, said later that
f he insurgent group, which agreed at
a meeting today to reopen.negotia
tions for a compromise, woidd study
the plan further.
Meanwhile Secretary Mellon met
with republican leaders of both tho,
senate and house to discuss the fu
ture of the bill. He was advised not
to expect the senate to reduce any
income surtax rates voted Into the
hill by the house. Rians were made,
however, to facilitate consideration of
the measure when It reaches the sen
ate.
Presents Compromise.
Those present at the meeting in
cluded Chairman Smoot of the senate
finance committee; Senators Curtis
of Kansas and Reed. Pensyivania,
members of the committee; Speaker
Olllett of tha house. Representative
Longworth and member* of the house
steering committee.
The compromise presented by Long
worth called for a flat 25 per cent re
duction In the surtax rates in th*
existing law, with the earn# brackets
retained. This would make the max
imum rate 37 H par cent on ineomea
in excess of $200,000, instead of tha
25 per cent maximum on incomes in
excess of $100,000 as proposed in the
Mellon plan. The democratic maxi
mum surtax is 44 per cent on in
comes in excess of $94,000.
The compromise further provides
for a 2 per cent minimum normal
rate, applying to incomes below $4,000
and 6 per cent above that amount.
The Mellon rates were 3 and I per
rent. Tha democratic ratea In the
Mil are 2 per cent on incomes ^elnw
$5,000: 4 per cent on incomes between
$5,000 and $8,000, and $ par cent on
Incomes above that amount.
Rev enue Adequate.
Longworth said he had . been as
sured by the treasury the compromise
would raise sufficient revenu# for
government needs.
Indications were given by some of
the insurgents after their meeting
that they might vote for a comprom
ise if it approached their original
proposition of a 40 per cent maxi
mum surtax rate on the grounds it
would raise more revenue than tha
democratic ratea and aid thereby in
financing a aoldlera' bonus.
Representative Garner of Texas,
ranking democrat on the ways Ind
means committee, made public an
estimate received from the Treas
ury department today, showing that
in 1925, the first year of operation, the
fiarner Income tax reductions would
cost $488,000,000 in revenue and the
Mellon plan $850,000,000. This In
cluded the reductions on normal and
aurtaxes and earned income. It did
not conaider reductions in the mis
cellaneous taxes or expected gains In
revenue as a result of tightening of
other sections.

You might be surprised to know
that the best thing you c«n use for
a severe cough, is a remedy which
is easily prepared at home in lust
a few moments. It’s ebeap, but for
prompt results it brats anything else
you ever tried. Usually stops the
ordinary cough or chest cold in 24
hours. Tastes pleasant, too—children
like it—and it is pure and good.
Pour 2</s ounces of Pinex in a
pint bottle; then fill it up with plain
granulated sugar syrup. Or use clari
fied molasses, honey, or corn syrup,
instead of sugar syrup, if desired.
Thus you make a full pint—a family
supply—but costing no more than a
small bottle of ready-made cough
syrup.
And as a cough medicine, there is
really nothing better to be had at
any price. It goes right to the spot
and gives uuick, lasting relief, it
promptly heals the inflamed mem
branes that lins tha throat and air
passages, stops the annoying throat
tickle, loosens the phlegm, and soon
your cough stops entirely. Splendid
for bronchitis, croup, hoarseness and
bronchial asthma.
Pinex is a highly concentrated com
pound of Norway pine extract,
famous for healing the membranes.
To avoid disappointment ask your
druggist for “2V,, ounces of Pinex
with directions and don t accept any
thing else tliiAranteed to give abe«
lute satisfaction or money refunded.

by "we." “We learned of no can
didates and asked a committee of

with Mrs. E. B. Copper, Mrs. J. J.
Harrington of O'Neill, Mrs. Will Mor
row of Scottsbluff, Mrs. C. G. Kyan
of Grand Island, Miss Grace Shallrn
berger of Almu, i?rs. C. L. Ashworth

niance that began in childhood school
days at Laurel, Neb., culminated this

older than she, no one else has been
able to win her knight, and week after
week he has hern going over the
steep hills from Laurel to the Tuttle
farmhouse where she lived.
Probably the most embarrassing
moment of the courtship on the part
of Miss Tuttle, according to her sister.
Grace Tuttle, who attends high school
here, was not when Mr. Burns asked
her to become his wife, as that seemed
to be understood from the beginning.
But, If blushes mean anything, it was
when Helen Grovner, one of her
pupils, ran to her at school one day
and said: "Teacher, are. you afraid
of fire?" Miss Tuttle answered, "Yes,
of course." Whereupon the little
girl said: "Well, don't you know
Everard Burns?"
After a short honeymoon trip the

Dodge County Farmers
Radiate Optimism
Fremont, Neb., Feh, 27 — Practically
every farm In IJodge countf" la ten
anted, aecerdlng to report* made by
the county farm agent and real ea
tate dealer*, Tbe annual spring move
ment will lie underway soon, but
every term is being occupied aa soon
a* It i* vacated, declared Fred It.
Richard*.
During tbe period of deflation many
farms deserted their land for homes
in town. Now that condition!* are
on the upgrade, the back-to-the farm
movement ia plainly evident. Author
ities state that most of the farms are
occupied by tenant farmers in Dodge
county, and that diversified farming
is rapidly being brought about as a
substitute for the old methods.
A feeling of optimism as to the
farm outlook in this part of the state
is being voiced by those in touch with
agriculture in this section. They feel
that the low point has been reached
and that prosperity is just around the
corner. Many had successful result*
during the last year and look forward
to oven better records during the com
ing year.
Omaha Is Built
on Sound Basis
Owner of Aquilla Court Tells

Confidence In the growth of Omaha
was expressed by Chester A. Cook
of Chicago, fin owner of the new
Aquilla Court building, in an address
before th# Omaha Real Kstate hoard
at the Chamber of Commerce today
noon.
"We have put up $1,000,(100 in cold .
cash as a demonstration of our confl -I
rlenee In Omaha-,’’ said Cook. "I don't
think there is ia better city in the
country for safe, conservative invest
.ft •nts. Omaha's wealth comes out of
the ground."
He also jjolnted ajtt that Omaha's
business district is not bo large as
business districts of other cities of
corresponding population, and pre
dicted that the downtown retail dis
trict will expand steadily.
In the course of his talk Mr. Cook
criticized the habit of many Omaha
people of purchaaing clothing and
haberdashery from eastern concerns
which send agents here and establish
temporary headquarter* in hotel
rooms. These eastern eonr»rn* |Xiv no
taxes and bring no one to live in Oma
