With the retirement of the senators 8 chairmanships of senate committees. 7 of which 'are of value to Hie Incumbent, and 14 chairmanships of house committees become vacant. These vacancies, together with the I necessity of electing a new speaker and new floor leader In the house and a lew party leader in the senate, give •he Republican members engaged in the work of reorganizing the party in I congress more ammunition with which to persuade the recalcitrants to behave themselves than they have had for many years.

I | Coolidge Isn’t Going to Rock the Boat
UIE business boom which was the great outstanding visible result of the presidential election is due. in the opinion of Presi-
l T
dent Coolidge, to the confidence of the business community in the stability of the administration of the government. It has been the foremost aim of the President to produce and preserve that stability and public confidence and It will continue his foremost aim. He is going to keep the ship of state on an even keel. There will be not the slightest uncertainty to trouble producers, employers and wage earners, if he can help it. He even desires to dispel such small uncertainties as are Inherent In rumors' of marked changes in his cabinet or in his policies or in his own attitude in the discharge of his duties. He contemplates few if any changes In his cabinet and no changes in policy or in his attitude as Chief Magistrate of the nation. There is to be no difference, he has indicated, between Calvin Coolidge as President in bls own right and Calvin Coolidge as official heir of Warren Harding. Stability and gtill more stability are what may be expected of the Coolidge administration. The President views with amuse-

LOT of Americans, recovering from the Jubilation over what they did at the polls In electing Coolidge and Dawes by
A
10.000.000 plurality, are realizing to- : day that they have made Charles G. | Dawes presiding officer of the senate, i And they find a chuckle In that. Repeatedly during his last speaking l campaign General Dawes paid his re- | spects to congress. Usually when he I mentioned congress In passing he would utter the word with the utmost contempt. “It is proposed,” he would say of the I LaFollette party plank, “to give congress power to re-enact a measure and , make it a law after the Supreme court had declared it unconstitutional." He would pause. “Congress! Let congress— !" About this moment his audience would roar with laughter. Without saying a a t prd about the congress Gen-
Tax Reduction Postponed Until 1925
POSTPONEMENT of tax reduction or any extensive “revision of revenue laws until the regular session of congress convening in
p
, December, 1925. is the definite prorratn of the administration. This was • indicated following a conference bei tween President Coolidge and SecreI tary of the .Treasury Mellon In which the tax situation was discussed. Secretary Melloa. it was learned, has been advised by tax experts in the treasury that it would be unwise to s attempt any further changes In tax j rates until after information is available showing the actual effect of the new rates of the revenue act of 1924. Because no satisfactory data showing to what extent present saw | will cut revenues will be available before the end of the calendar year 1925. Secretary Mellon has been Informed that it would be folly to tinker with the present law either during the coming winter or at a special session In the spring.. Due to this situation the administration will be inclined to oppose any 1

Both soldiers, by performing the duties of their present rank temporarily during the World rar, demonstrated their fitness for permanent elevation to the rank of general officer, which took place in 1921.

If Senator Borah takes the foreign relations chairmanship Senator Cummins, the president pro tempore of the senate, will be in line for the chairmanship of the Ju i dlclary committee. Now that General Dawes will become presiding officer of'the senate In the next congress there will probably be no objection to Senator Cummins taking this chairmanship or possibly resuming the chairmanship of the in terstate commerce committee.
ment the reports that he is going to be a very different Coolidge when he takes the reins in his own right. He is Just going to go on being himself, he avows, and even while serving out the Harding term he has tried to be himself and to do things in his own instead of somebody else’s way. Mr. Coolidge' will be inaugurated President nsxt March, but until asked the question it had not occurred to him. that his wishes might be desired as to an inaugural parade and an in augural bail. He dismissed the subject with the observation that if there were a parade or a ball he supposed he would participate. As to changes in his official advisers the President has made it knowp he would like tp keep his present cabinet intact The only cabinet member who has indicated to the President a desire to retire on March 4 is Secretary of Labor Davis, it was stated authorita tively. Wheat prices particularly interested the President in view of the acCuW tion by LaFoliette campaigners that Wall street Influences had caused the price of wheat to go up in order to aid in the re-election of the present Republican administration.
eral Dawes, by his inflection of voice in uttering the word, had given a very definite Idea of contempt for congress. Vice presidents, theoretically and by precedent, no matter how promlent they have been in ordinary life, drop? into oblivion when they go to Wash-\ ington. The President does the talking and the fighting. The vice president tries to keep awake as he sits in the hig chair on the dais of the senate floor, and that lets him out. But will “Hell Marla” Dawes remain "buried" for four years—even for four months? That’s what his friends are asking, with grins. They say he is suave, h parliamentarian, a diplomat, when suctr things are necessary. If more harsh measures are required in his new Job it Wouldn’t surprise his friends if he dropped the rules of order entirely and resorted to army regulations. especially when a filibuster is on and he wants to smoke his pipe
movement for a further flat cut of 25 per. cent In individual Income taxes during the coming short session of congress. Possibility of a horizontal reduction ot this sort to apply on income taxes paid next March on earnings of the calendar year 1924 was suggested by Senator Smoot (Rep„. Utah), chairman of the senate finance committee. President Coolidge Is on record for a further tax reduction at the earliest opportunity. He will reiterate his advocacy of such action In his annual message to congress In December. In view of the information furnished him by Secretary Mellon, however, he will not press for action at the coming short session of congress, and he has no present intention of convening the new congress in special session. In Secretary Mellon’s annual report to congress he renews his advocacy of lower surtax rates and lower estate taxes, and expresses opposition to publicity of amounts paid by taxpayers as provided In the 1924 act, and to full publicity of tax returns.
qulrements for a commission presuppose an education equivalent to that conferred by a four-year course at the United States Military academy, considered by many the finest military educational institution, it is remarkable that so many men of the last generation. lacking this equipment, should have risen to a rank that is denied to all but a selected few, even, of the West Point graduates. The 1924 graduating class at the Military academy was 406, whereas in a corresponding period of time only ten ex-cadets retired as general officers. The oldest living general officer of the United States army who rose from the ranks Is Brig. Gen. Michael Cooney, eighty-seven, who was retired in 1899 after 43 years' service as enlisted man and officer. General Cooney was already an "old soldier" when the Civil war broke out. but he did not obtain his commission until after its elose, bavin* then served ten years as an enlisted man /•»;■*> d.‘-
BRUSHED WOOL SWEATERS; ’ FEATHER TRIMS POPULAR
■8 T KT’S be optimistic and count our blessings from a fashion standpoint. Why not start our list of winter joys for which we are duly appreciative with the words “brushed wool”! If there la one vogue more than another for which we would render a vote of thanks to stylists responsible therefor, it Is that of the lovely “comfy" brushed wool knitted things which

radiate their colorful charm throughout the season's modes. Seems as if most everything in the way of knitted outerwear has taken upon Itself a downy soft surface, which fashlonlsts are pleased to exploit as “brushed wool." Especially are sweaters expressing themselves In terms of brushed wool. Even the lightweight ones for sunny southern wear show this tendency, for there are degrees and degrees of brushed wool ranging from mere suggestion to shaggiest fur-like effects. Orange and white brushed wool makes a pleasing color scheme in the sweater here pictured. There Is unique contrast In collar and cuffs of solid orange brushed wool, with the belt, the pockets and the front hem of smooth plain knit. While plaids are strongly endorsed In brushed wool knitted garments, there is also favor expressed for solid gay colored models. Especially do the heavier, shaggier sweaters flaunt striker J,

These often appear In jacquette silhouettes, frequently sans trimming of any sort, although there are some stunning models with collars and cuffs of clipped "wool fur."

Paris grows almost feverishly ' enthusiastic about some one item that appears in the modes. All at once designers seem to think by day and dream by night of this particular fem ture of the styles. Just now those who make hats for stars in the social firmainent or for those whose names stand for vast incomes, are trimming them (the hats, of course) with ths
airiest and most expensive plumage used lavishly on wonderfully becoming shapes, usually of velvet. The shapes show trifling variations of the season’s accepted styles. It Is not always so easy tu be, at the same time, gorgeous and elegant, but these new, feather-trimmed hats accomplish It—therefore they have jyeen adopted and adapted In America and four of them appear in the group pictured here. Some of the fine feathers which do not always make fine birds, are forbidden to us—as the hertm algrettepbut we get along very well without them. Mme. America substitutes other plumage which she can wear without a twinge of Ostrich, peacock, coque, goose, pheasant, in their original state, or so dis- > gulsed that we do not recognize them, contribute ' satisfactory feather trimming for American millinery. The hat at the top of the group pictured is of black hatter's plush with
pompon and "feather duster" mote ture, which leaves us to guess as to what sort of plumage It is. It Is fine and shiny, with little touches of white near the top. Just below it a satin hat with velvet facing has an interesting back brim, accented by a group of airy aigrettes, Imitating the exquisite plumage of the heron. To the left a daring velvet tarn borrows dignity from the fan of glycerlned ostrich used in such profusion at one side.
