fTE BEE: OMATIA, FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 5, 1920. 'New Tariff Laws Probability at Special Session Smith Defeated In New York State Action on Tax "Measures Also Likely at Extra Meeting Of Congress, Prob ably in April. ( liirago Trlliunc-Oiimhit llr I-raned Wire. Washington, Nov. 4. With the lection of Senator Harding, revi sion of tax and tariff laws at a spe cial session of tonRrcss,' to be called probably in April, has become a cer tainty, according to authentic in formation. Although the republicans would be l'le to pass taxation and tariff measures at the December session, :l'?re is little likelihood that they will d so, n view of possible executive vetoes and also because they wish to await recommendations from the tuw president and from his secre tary of the treasury. Secretary of the Treasury Houston-, in his forthcoming annual re tort, will renew his recommenda tions for the repeal or modification of the excess profits tax and for va rious other changes in the revenue law. Action on legislation of this nature, however undoubtedly will be delayed until after March 4. Revenue and tariff legislation will bex in charge cf the same senators and representatives who now head the committees having jurisdiction over them. Sentiment for the repeal of the excess profits tax- has become so widespread that action along this lire is believed to be assured. The question to be decided is, what the substitute for the, excess profits taxes shall b-:. Disagreement over this question is one factor which may tend to delay action until after March 4.

I Gilinsky Conducts Ludicrous Defense On Robbery Charge Jackson. Mich., Nov. 4. (Special Telegram.) At times bordering on the ludicrous, Dave Gilinsky , of Omaha, opened his own defense here today on a charge of robbing the Grass Lake bank. Refusing to -employ an attorney, Gilinsky examined ail prospective jurors empaneled to day. His efforts to imitate the phrase ology of court practice proved amusing. He vigorously cross-examined prospective jurors, who showed keen dislfkc of the proceed ings. He exercised several peremp tory challenges and his methods in dicate that several days may be re quired to get a competent jury. Since his conviction on a charge of first degree murder, Gilinsky has de clared that he needs no attorney and will conduct his own defense on the lesser charge. Witnesses have been summoned for Wednesday. Armour Pleads Not Guilty To Profiteering Charge New York, Nov. 4. J. Ogden Armour, president of Armour & Co., meat packers, and F. Edson White, vice-president of the company, pleaded not guilty to an indictment charging profiteering in violation of the Lever act before Judge John G. Knox in the United States dis trict court. The defendants were given two weeks time in which to change their pica if they so cared, and were released -In $1,000 bond each. ' Armour, White, and Armotu & Co., together with other officials and executives of the company, were in dicted here October 22, charged with profiteering in New Zealand lamb.

Champ Clark of Bowling Green, Mo., veteran of the house of rcoresentatives to which he has been elected more times than the average voter can remember, last night surrendered his post to T. W. Hukreide of War renton, republican candidate in the Ninth Missouri district. Overrunning a handicap of 5.000 vo'es with five-sixths of the pre cincts in his district including tin democratic strongholds the 'former democratic leader sent a telegram to Hukreide congratulating the repub lican opponent "on his victory." Two hundred out of 226 precincts had given Hukreide 30,421 to Clark's 25.- 679 before the backers of the in cumbent admitted that he had lost. Even then Mr. Clark refused to talk to newspaper reporters. He remain ed at home most of the day, confi dent of victory. As county after county which ordinarily chose Mr. Clark as its representative sent in reports which showed he was poll ing a smaller vote than ever before, it became apparent that his hope lay in his home district Pike courty Pike gave Mr. Clark one of his best votes in history 5,165 to 2,881 for Hukreide but it was not enough. Mr. Clark was elected to the house in 1893. ( In 1895 he was ryt chosen but in 1 1897 he again was elected and had represented his dis trict ever since. In 1912 he was considered the fa vorite for the democratic nomina tion for president, but was beaten to Woodrow Wifcon, after a long fight, primarily through a break with William J. Bryan. s ADVKKTISKMEN'T .When "Gets-It" Comes Corns Go Painless, Sure, Quick is this 2-Drop 2-Seconds Wonder.
