Senators expected to head important committees in new Republican senate. AboTe: Knute Nelson of Minne fota, at left, to head judiciary or commerce committee; Henry Cabot Lodpe of Massachusetts, foreipn rela tions; A. B. Cummin of Iowa, interstate commerce. Below, at left, Miles Poindexter of Washington, nava affairs, and Boise Penrose, Pennsylvania, finance committee.

Control of the new U. S. senate by the Republicans will also jrive them the whip hand in organ zing the important committees of the senate. As a result many changes are expected. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts is expected to succeed Senator Hitchcock as head of the foreign relations committee. While the peace conference

probably .wffl have completed its work before the Democratic senate Roes out the new Republican commiUee will have grave after-the-war prolilems to handle. The finance committee will handle the money end of the reconstruction measures which reach the senate. Boise Penrose is slated o lead that committee. Senator Nelson is the rankincr member for the

chairmanship of both the judiciary and commerce committee, both important, but is expected to choose the latter. The interstate commerce commission, with jurisdiction over government controlled railroad and wire systems, looms up more important than ever. The problems of the navy's future will be passed upon by the naval committee.

niittee took no action, however, on that part of the plan relating to 190 taxes. The committee at once began making the necesary arrangements to bring the revenue to six billion dollars. On soft drinks rates were reduced from twenty per cent to ten per cent: on noar-bers. thirty per cent to fifton per cent; on cigars rates were increased 40 pr cent over those of the present time. This, however, is a considerable reduction from the rates proposed in the pending house and senate bill. WINCHELLIS DISCHARGED CHICAGO, Xov. 22.
