3 So. Illusion St Buffalo, X. Y. WASHINGTON, June 2 War taxation ef publishers' advertising receipts rather than increase of their postage 'rates was rigorously urged today by representatives of National pu lishing Interests at an informal conference with Senators who are redrafting the War Tax bill. Newspaper, magazine, trade, religious, farm and many other publishing Interests joined in the plea which will be reported to the finance committee Mon-dav, when it resumes revision of the House war tax measure.

A confidential draft of committee changes ia being printed, and the committee plans to decide how publications shall be taxed, to place the bill In final form and to report it to the Senate before the end of next week. Senator Simmons, chairman of the Finance Committee; Senator Penrose, senior Republican member, and Senator Smoot received tbe publishers representatives tor! ay to thrash out the whole question of war taxes on publications having tlie second-class, or cent-a-pound mailing rates. The publishers were asked to suggest a taxation plan, and the unanimous recommendation of levying upon advertising receipts was the result after an hours discussion. The increased postage rates would put many publishers out of business and could not be passed along, the committee was told, while a tax on advertising receipts could be met by Increased advertising rates. Newspapers are not desirous of escaping a tax, the committee was told r.v Elbert H.

Baker of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, chairman of the legislative Committee of the American Newspaper Publishers' Association, but we would rather have, a direct tax on advertising receipts at a fair rate than any change in the postage rates. Such. a change might become permanent. All ot us prefer to have the postage question handled separately from war tax legislation. ThlB seems to be the psychological lime, Senator Simmons said, for pub- lishers to accept a postage raise that is Inevitable.

Print paper prices are high, tnd the increase decided on might be css now than when conditions are Shanged. Allan H. Richardson of New York, representing the American Periodical Publishers Association, said: It is not wise or American to increase second-class postage. It Is not justified even by war conditions and would be most nsatlsfactory. Mr Richardson cited the Iostofflce Department's surplus last jear, even with mailing on second-class lublications at a maximum.

John Schleicher of New York and ether representatives of weekly magazines having wide circulation said their publications also prefer an advertising tjx. Manv publishers do not use the mails, said Mr bchleieher. Many large daily newspapers use them little, but they have enormous advertising incomes. An advertising tax would hit everybody." Representing farm journals, E. T.

Meredith of Des Moines, la, and Clarence Poe of Raleigh. also advocated an advertising tax. Mr Meredith said ne represented 55 farm journals, which had, together, netde $581,000 profit last year, and had paid $569,000 in postage. We would accept an advertising tax, hoping to cet by, but a postage increase would mean bankruptcy. he said.

And at that, a tax of one percent on advertis lng means an actual tax of 20 percent cn our profits, as they are now only about JO percent. NATION-WIDE QUEST FOR KIDNAPED CHILD i SPRINGFIELD, Mo, June 2-Con-Vlnced that the kidnapers of his 14 pionths old sou, Lloyd, were bv this time well out of the Ozark country. J. Holland Keet, millionaire banker, determined today upon a Nation-wide search for the boy.

Reports today from Kansas Citv cleared a man whose activities in regard to an abduition case 12 years ago caused authorities to look for him after the Keet baby disappeared. He reported to the Kansas City police and was cleared suspicion.

Applications must be sent to the commanding Generals of the departments in which the applicants live between June 15 and July 15. Citizens between the ages of 20 and 9 months and 44 years are eligible.

Some of the present 16 officers training camps will be abandoned In the second series, and all selected for the second training courses are located in the Southern part of the country, where the weather will be good through the Fall. The camp sites chosdn and tne areas from which applicants will be assigned are aB follows: Fort Myer, Va Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut. New Jersey, Delaware. Maryland. Virginia and the District of Columbia.

Fort McPherson, Ga New York city and contiguous territory included in Congressional District 1 to 26 inclusive; Alabama, Georgia and Florida Fort Oglethorpe, Ga The greater part of New York State, the northern part ot Pennsylvania.

A permanent organization known as the Community Health Council will take charge of the work and carry out the plans made by the committee. Dr Slrfipson and Dr Finnegan will be in direct control of the Community Health Council, which is made up of one member5 of each of the local health boards of Ayer, Shirley, Groton, Harvard, Littleton, Lancaster, Peppered and Townsend. These members will be known as executive officers. By the plans evolved by the committee each member of the Health Council will see that the local authorities carry out the orders of the council and concerted action by all the towns will be assured. It is anticipated that, with the arrival of the troopB at the camp, the population of the eight towns surrounding the camp site will grow beyond a point which the towns themselves could well care for.

Dr McLaughlin, in describing this inevitable growth in population to the Governor, declared that the population of Ayer and surrounding towns will increase by as much as 10.0U0 people. These will include camp followers, unlicensed venders of food and drink, and other persons disposed to disregard law and ordinances. It is pointed out that the towns themselves are unable to finance a proper health organization to cope with such a sudden growth, and, as it has been found necessary in England and France to complete the sanitary organization long before the troops arrive at the camp, and the Federal Government un der existing law is restricting its sani tary work to the soldier and his camp, it was urged that the sanitary arrange inents be installed with the minimum of delay. Acting on this advice, the Legislature has appropriated $20,000 to carry on the work. It is believed that the Federal Government will eventually adopt measures which will provide for the in stalling of proper health safeguarding arrangements, and If this is done and ine Government pays for the installation at other camps it is expected that the State will be reimbursed the money spent on the Ayer camp.

Several subcommittees have been' ap pointed to investigate certain phases of the work, while other branches will rod with the Community Health Council.

GALLIVAN SAYS DRAFT MAY BE OUR BEST PROTECTION The closing feature of the Dorchester Day celebration yesterday was a ban- Quet held last night In Ronan Memorial Charges Attempt to Falsify Issue Relative to Contractors i Mayor Curley yesterday made his fourth attack upon the Finance, Com mission for its bonding investigation methods, in a formal statement issued from hia Office. It was headed, "The Falsehood Concerning Contractors, and read The Finance Commission' case on city officials' bonds ha broken down. But the commission is trying to bolster up its attack on me by pretending that the city lost money through the placing of contractors bonds with the National Surety Company, and that contractors who got National Surety Company bonds wae favored by the city, and those who did not were This is the silliest sort of stuff, First No insurance man could long cut rates, as Browns said he did. He would be driven out by the companies who insist on uniform rates. They treat a rate-cutter as a pirate.

This disposes of the pretence of saving the city money through lower bids of contractors low ered by the meager amount of reduced insurance rates. Second No contractor has been favored because he got a National surety bond or hurt because he did not. The Finance Commission has not been furnished a shred of such evidence by any contractor. It has produced rumors and gossip, and the rankest kind of hearsay, which would be rejected Instantly by any court. What is the gossip in the trade asks attorney Huriburt of Mr Hickson, and the witness proceeds to relate the gossip.

This is a sample of what the Finance Commission calls evidence. They said Russo was favored, but ho showed that he had 'to sue the city to get what he claims belongs to him. Isonsky said he thought- his first bid might have been accepted if he had hail a National Surety Company bond he was told this by a man on the street whose name he could not remember. What evidence And what a palpable lie. His first bid and the other mans were rejected, he said; therefore, he was not called on for a bond and of course had none.

Bonds are not called for until contracts are awarded. Of such stuff as this is the Finance Commission hearing made how jealous Dogberry would be if he were living." PLOT REVEALED TO SMUGGLE IN BRAVAS Immigration officials here believe that an attempt is to be made to smuggle hundreds of Brava negroes into this country in defiance of the immigration law. They have learned that seven schooners, with nearly 400 of this class of aliens, are on the way to New Bedford from the Cape de Verde Islands. It is reported that one of this fleet has already reached the Massachusetts coast. She is said to have arrived in Buzzards Bay.

put instead of continuing to New Bedford she headed seaward again, her captain evidently having been informed by some one that his human freight would probably be excluded from the country and the owners of the packet fined. It is believed that the skipper of this vessel will try and intercept the other schooners and carry the warning to them, and that all of them will try and effect a landing at some other point on the coast. So strong is the belief that such an attempt will be made that the men In the coastguard service and coast patrols the entire length of the Atlantic seaboard have been instructed to watch out for the vessels and prevent the carrying out of the plot. These vessels sailed before the Bur1 nett bill became a law on May and It is probable that the captains and tho foreigners on, hoard had no knowledge ci the changed conditions.

With the celebration cams the customary rain shower and at one thne the exercises came to halt, but Mayor Curley was giving the dedicatory address, at Ronan Park when the rain deacended hardest and he decided the program would go on Ex-Mayor John F. Fitzgerald was being escorted to the platform at that moment. The two men were greeted warmly and their presence together, although they were not engaged in conversation, was the cause of some comment. The dedication of Ronan Park, on Mt Ida, was the feature of the celebration. Throngs of men, women and children were on the large recreation field early and stayed throughout the day despite the rain and enjoyed all the attractions that had been provided for their entertainment.

At the Franklin Field Speedway anoth-er large rowd gathered for the hors-s race between the Mayor and Michael McDermott, president of the Dorchester Gentlemens Driving Club, and they thought they witnessed the Mayors defeat in the final heat. There was consternation for the moment. The Mayor's horse lost! was the excited exclamation. But the five Judges in the stand declared it a dead heat and each having won a heat, blue ribbons were awarded both the Mayor and Mr McDermott. Mayors Son Unfurled Flag The Mayor took part in a flag-raining at the other end of Franklin Field and distributed prizes to school children at the William E.

On Monday, also, the yard will be divided into two shifts. The day shift will work from 7 a tn to 12 and 12:45 to 5:45 and the night men from 6 to midnight and 1 to 7 a m. These hours will prevail on all days but Saturdays when work will stop at noon. Night workers will stop work at midnight, Friday nights.

Overtime will be paid for all work done after eight hours. The jard will be shut down at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon to enable all workmen between 21 and 30 to register for military duty. In a bulletin issued tonight. Pres Powell urged every man between those ages to register, but said it was extremely improbable that any man will be drafted from the shipyards. He based his opinion on a telegram from Asst Sec of the Navy Roosevelt, at tne beginning of the war, in which Mr Roosevelt said men working on Government ships were doing their military duty as effectively as if they were at the front.

He urged the men to remain at their work on this account. Pres Powell said he would issue cards to all workmen desiring them, notifying the draft officials that Fore River workmen were doing Government duty by working on warships for the United States Navy, RUSHING HEARINGS ON RAILROAD FREIGHT RATES WASHINGTON. June 2Wlth testimony proceeding before a special examiner as well as before the full Interstate Commerce Commission, hearings on the petition of the railroads for a 15 percent advance in freight rats are being rushed to allow hearing of all the parties who have put in appearances before June 7 when the case against the carriers is to be closed. Food Interests and many other bhip-pers at todays hearing protested against the proposed increase. Wheat producers of North Dakota would suffer heavy inroads on their profits of 4 or 5 percent if the raise were granted, William Langer, Attorney General of the State, told the commission.

Farmers from the grain belt declared that greater freight charges would result in marked decrease in production. Food canners of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and Illinois declared they had made heavy contracts on which they would pay freight charges and urged that no rate advance be made effective before Jan 18. Protests were also entered by hop growers and shippers of California and the Northwest, who declared th industry to be in a critical condition from the sweep of prohibition. The commission held that it is without in the absence of undue discrimination, to order railroads to acquire equipment of a special type or to require the transportation of refrigerator cars on passenger or special trains. The commission also decided that common carriers operating exclusively in Canada cannot be required to maintain Joint traffic arangement with common City Ticket Office, cor.
