Rhinelander's Counsel "Little Fellow" and Rich Man Are Alike Favored by Cuts. This la (ho first of a series of articles on tho scope of the tax-reduction bill now being prepared by tho House Committee on Ways and Means. Eagle Bureau. 901 Colorado Building. By JOHN BILLINGS Jr.

Washington, Nov. 20 Now that the Ways and Means Committee has spent a month In public hearings an 1 executive sessions completing a bill for the reduction of taxes It Is possible to forecast tho nature of the welcome measure as will be presented to the House next month. This House committee has put together a bill which In its present form would wipe out taxes to the amount of $308,866,709. But the legislative career of this tax act is just beginning and ahead or it He many conflicts and changes. The House Itself will tinker a little the committee's recommendations before pausing 'the measure.

The Senate Finance Committee is expected to tear it apart even more and rewrite it its own fashion. Thon In the Semite itself well, anything may happen to the bill there. Non-Purtlsau Measure as It Stands. Nevertheless tax reduction, as embodied In this new bill, has at least the advantage of starting out on its long course under the clear sky of non-part Isanehlp. A most extraordinary hiirmony has prevailed within the Ways and Means Committee.

How long this propitious spirit will continue it Is Impossible to say now.

SPURS BUSINESS: MARKET REACTS Wall St. Sees Administration Favorable to Rail Mergers and Expansion. Big business and the financial cen ter generally considered President Coolldge's address before the New York State Chamber of Commerce last night as a spur to Increased ac tivity, broader construction of the law against so-called "trusts," and assurance that neither size nor expansion would meet disfavor. In Wall Street stocks responded to the speech with a forward urge. Some disappointment was expressed that the President did not devote more attention to the problem of railroad consolidations, which Is now so prominent In the financial eye.

Here too, his views wero Interpreted as a promise that the carriers would be permlted to work out mergers un der the Esch-Clmmlns act. with out Interference by Congress. witn tne president's views toward the function of America as a creditor nation, ready to offer aid to European commerco and Industry l.ut opposed to non-productive loans, there was also general agreement. It was a coincidence that the loan to the Kingdom of Italy was offered this morning by J. p.

Morgan Co. and met enthusiastic response. President Returns. President Coolidge arrived back In Washington at 7 o'clock this morning on his special train which had left the Pennsylvania Station at 12:46 a.m., obviously pleased with the reception accorded him yesterday In New York and delighted with receiving a telegram of congratulation from his father. Col, John Coolidge.

The aged colonel had been pre viously reported so 111 at Plymouth, tnat tne President and his wife planned to hurry to the elder Cool-ldge'a bedside if his condition be came worse. The telegram, however, encouraged the President enough so that he returned to Washington in stead. It read: "Dear Cal Just heard you over radio. Congratulations on fine address. JOHN C.

COOLIDGE." Message Cheers President. When the President read this message he remarked "That's fine" and, concluding that his father was put of danger, prepared for a night's rest. President Coolidge set forth the attltudo of his administration toward business in his address Inst night at the annual banquet of the New York State Chamber of Commerce, at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. He stressed the need of a better and more sympathetic understanding by the government of the commercial world's problems and by business men of the affairs of government. Mr.

Coolidge urged American bankers to exercise care In making foreign loans. Such loans, he said. are Justified when the borrolwer uses the money to re-estaousn tnaustry (Continued on Page 20) Cathedral Dean Kills Self in Boston Hospital Boston, Nov. 20 OP) The Rev. Dr.

SPEECH Calls for Help Fail as Big Ship Disappears in Darkness After Buttermilk Channel Crash Barely Misses Tug Victim's Body Not Recovered. A big Incoming ocean liner, blundering her way erazlly through Buttermilk Channel, left death and destruction In her wake early tod.iv and proceeded on her way to i.

boken without stopping. The steamer, which has not yet been Identified, rammed a railroad float, sweeping one man and 10 flat cars Into the river, nearly struck the tugboat Agnes Moran a few minutes Inter, and still farther along In her courso narrowly missed running down a third boat, the name of which was not learned. Two floats, loaded with flat cars, one owned by tho West Shore and the other by the New York Central itallroud, wero being towed through the channel about 4 a.m. by the Hush Terminal Company tug, F.lsl-nore Hutch, in chargo of Capt.

Police of tho Marino Division searched the river for hours afterward but could find no truen of him.

Most of the cars on the float were loaded. All hut two are believed to have sunk. Those two were found later, one tied up at tho foot of st. and the other ut E. ICth Manhattan.

Moran said thero appeared to be great excitement aboard the steamer, but the vessel continued on her course, Ignoring the halls from the tug. In the darkness he could not make out her name.

Mr. Davis then arose slowly and said he was perfectly willing to agree to an adjournment because Judge Mills needed more time to make certain Investigations. "I desire that counsel for tho plaintiff," suld Mr. Davis, "shall huve tile fullest opportunity to make all tho Inquiry be desires. I am perfectly willing to give him the fullest opportunity to make ull the Investigation ho desires." Justice Mnrscbaiiser did not seem a bit surprised by this sudden move of counsel, becnuso It previously had been discussed In chambers.

In granting tho week-end adjournment, the Court suld to the Jury: "I am uboiil to grant the request of Judge Mills. Ho reels ho needs more time, nml I nut going to give him that time.

GERMAN JGARNO SIGNING Sandringham, Nov. 20 OP) Queen Mother Alexandra, widow of King Edward VII and mother of King Ueorgo died late this afternoon at Sandringham House. A bulletin signed by the attending physicians, F.

J. Willans and Sir Thomas nordcr, said: "Her Majesty Queen Alexandra passed away at 6:25 o'clock. The King, Queen and members of the Royal Family were present." Family at Death Bed. The King and Queen, Trlnco Henry, Princess 'Victoria and Queen Maud of Norway (Alexandra's third daughter), were already at Sandring ham on one of their customary visits. The family gathering had not been prearranged, as there seemed to oe no cause for special anxiety about the condition of the Queen mother.

King Georgo was the host of a shooting party when news of the attack reached him, and he rushed to his mother's bedside. His first glimpse of the anxious, tear-stained faces of the servants and officials of Sandringham House told him plainer than words of the true situation. The King stayed with his mother as long as the doctors thought advisable. The physicians and nurses remained in constant attendance. Last evening the son again visited the Queen mother.

At that time word was given out that there had been no change and that the Queen was resting peacefully, but tho watchers learned the ominous additional fact that arrangements had been made to summon the King at any hour during the night. Although the trying hours of darkness there was keenest anxiety among the people of the district, all of whom knew tpe aged widow of Edward VII as one of their own family. Little groups waited along the highway to Sandringham. scanning every passing vehicle and submitting any arrlvuls from the royal home to searching questioning. Others Nought News by Radio.

Others flocked to places where there were wireless Installations, thinking to get the first tidings of her condition from one of tho broadcasters.

IS THQRNE WINS CUSTODY 0 CHILD MILLIONS and sufficient points of controversy remain to sustain the belief that the measure will not reach final enactment without being considerably scarred up. The following analysis or what the Ways and Means Committee him done, therefore, must not he accepted in any sense as tax reduction in its finished form. livery Taxpayer's) Burden Lightened.

The House next month will re ceive a bill from its revenue-raising committee which approximately will cut the amount paid Into the Treas ury from Internal sources from to $2,276,000,000. Whllo this may not look like a very sizable reduction, every taxpayer will per. mmal.y find that his burden has been materially lessened. The chief features of the committee hill, ns it. has been worked out by Chairman Green and his col leagues, include the following: 1 A marked increase In the amount of allowable deductions for single and married men.

2 A reduction In the normal tax, ranging from to 1 per- 1 cent. 3 A reduction in the surtaxes nbnvf $42,000, cutting the maximum surtax from 40 percent to 20 percent. 4 A reduction In the lnherlt-anco tax, with increased allow- ncec for State payments. The reduction or abollsh-' nient of a number of mlscella-' ncoii-i taxes. 6 The removal of tax publicity.

ISorrls Will right for Publicity Clause. Although the House Committee has been able to work out these Item in a non-partisan manner, there is not one of them which at some point on the Congressional horizon does not arouse dissent and antagonism. Senator Norrls of Nebraska has already Issued a warning that ho will lght any tax bill that tries to do away with the publicity Clause. Senator Smoot, chairman mf the Finance Commltee, has ex- pressed concern about the Increased ademptions, snd repeats his desire to do Hway with the inheritance tax altogether. Insurgents in the House and Senate alike are snarling menacingly at the Ways and Means Committee's oction In cutting the higher surtax brackets at Secretary Mellon's request.

From several imirtcrs comes the complaint that he total reduction might well ex ceed with larger cuts at tho bottom. Mow "Mule Fellow" Is Helped. Hut what Interests the great mass of people most Is the tax payment to be demanded oi tne uiue tei-lows" the men with Incomes of $5,000 or less. Eighty-eight percent of the tax returns received by the Treasury came from this class, which has only an academic Interest in surtaxes or Inheritance rates. Their concern centers primarily In their own Federal tax bill, which is $37.50 or less under the present law.

Now what has the Ways snd vmm Committee done for this hy pothetical personage whom the politician nlways refers to as "the little No Tax on 13,300 Salaried Man The best turn Is to Increase the mount he may strike from his re-turn as exemptions beyond the reach of taxation. For the single man the exemption, as planned py tne committee, has been raised from $1,000 to tl.fiOn, and for the married man from $2,600 to $3,600. In other words, the married man with a sal- try of $3,600 will not have to pay any tax at all It the committee's recommendations are finally enacted. This would relieve about 1.000,000 people from paying Federal taxes. According to official estimates, the Treasury Continued on Page S.
