For Records On Smith Estate Washington, March 24.-(By AP)-- One section of the congressional mill of investigation, the Daugherty com- mittee, today stilled its wheels tem- porarily because the illness of Senat- or Wheeler in charge .of the investi- gation and the absence of other sen-, ators forced the committee to call offr the hearing set for today to wind up the story of Roxie Stinson, divorced wife of Jesse Smith. Also Chairman Brookhart announced that the committee would be in recess. until Wednesday but there is a possi- bility that it may proceed tomorrow if Senator Wh'eeler should be able to return. He was confined to his desk today with a severe cold. The halt in the hearing may enable Mrs. Mable Walker Willebrandt, as- sistant attorney general, to conclude other work on which she is now en- gaged and be present to conduct Miss Stinson's cross examination. Today's recess in the investigation enabled senators to look over the field of possible witnesses and pre- pare sub-peones. A summons was sent out to the Commercial Bank of Morris, Sharp and Company, Washing- ton Court House, Ohio, the home of Jesse Smith. The head bookkeeper was was ordered to submit records dealing with affairs of Smith in running down a report that his estate was larger than has been generally understood, :iniid' alo that funds of the est'ite bad been withdrawn from the Midland Bank which is headed by M. S. Daugh- erty, brother of the attorney general.

HOODSON TO GIVE Noted Anthropologist Will Disess i "Belief [i iRelicariation of Siirit" Ton ight "LIC INVIEO 'I ATTEN txAT HERINU A11'LANE 1HALI Colonel Thomas C. Hodson, noted anthropologist, who has been conduct- ing classes in his subject at the Uni- versity since the beginning of this semester, is to be the principle speak- er at 'a meeting of the Institute of Religious Education, at -7 o'clock to- night in Lane Hall under the auspices of the Student Christian association. Colonel Hodson is to talk upon theI subject "The Belief in the Reincar- nation of the Spirit." This particular speech by Colonel Hodson is considered one of his most famous adresses, and was first given before the Oxford Society in 1909. He has repeated the speech many times since-'then. Colonel Hodson has contributed considerable information of scientif- ic, value to his study, and since his re-! turn from India, in 1895, has become one of the foremost anthropologists of the day.i In 1914 he entered the military ser.. vice, as an interpreter in the Indian corps, and held at that tine the rankI of lieutenant. At the close of the war he was appointed acting director of forestry, and held the rank of Co-- onel. He has written several books, and numerous papers for the anthro- pological journals, and his works, "The Meitheis" and "The Naga Tribes of Manipur" hve elicited considerable I favorable comment. The meeting tonight is to be open to all interested. There will he dis- cussion of the speech immediately following the meeting. LITTL WILL 9ADDRESS HfllKY WlhAR T1ONIGHT BUSINESS WORLD A VOIDS COLLEGE PROFESSOR AYERS SLOSSON DECLARES COMMERCIAL LIFE ADMIRES BUT SHUNS "INTELLECTUAL" TEACHER SALESMAN O F SERVICE, SAYS SPEAKER1 Pedagogue Regarded as Jack of All Trades; is Expected to Teach All Subjects That the business world in general regards colleges and universities as places to admire and avoid was the statement made by Prof. Prdston W. Slosson in an address last night on "The Teacher as a Business Man" at the Men's Education club meeting at the Union. tie said that this results from the fact that the teacher is gen- erally believed to be isolated from life, and that therefore the services the teachers renders are impractical. Professor Slosson denied this, as- serting instead that the business man is the one who is isolated from life for he meets practically the same peo- ple throughout his career, while the teacher comes in contact with a wide variety of youig men and women and older people. "Teachers are salesmen," Profes- or Slosson declared. He said that al- though they do not sell material things they do sell their services, which is exactly what the corporation lawyer or broker does. "But the teach-t er is not paid the salary of a business man because the difference between 1 the skilled and unskilled teacher is not immediately apparent as is the difference between a good carpenterI and a poor one. The ones who choose. the teachers are not themselves judges of good teaching, and accord-! ingly they can have no basis on which to base their estimate of the teacher's value: "Ateacher is regarded as a jack of all trades by many school boards," Professor Slosson said. "He may m 6 offered a chair of history but he soon j finds tha the has been given the sofa. if he has specialized in History he may nevertheless be asked to teach f French or Manual Training classes' or he may even be asked to teach1 singing although he may have no ear for music.

SENATE COMMI1TTEE VOTES MELLON TAX1 RA9TES INTO BIL SCIIEDUL, CENTER OF TAX BILL CONTROVERSY, PASSED 8 TO 7, PARTY LINES TIGHTLY DRAWN ABOUT FRACAS SUSPECT MELLO'S IN TAX TRHEATMENT REVENUE OFFICIALS WILL FILE RETURNS OF STEEL CAR, OIL CORPORATIONS COUZENS CITES RECORDS TO SHOW GRAFTCHANCE Senate Committee hearings Ceuter About Possible Aggregate Of Rebates Washington, March 24.-(By AP)-] Internal revenue bureau files on tax returns of the Standard Steel Car Company, the Gulf Oil corporation and other concerns in which Secretary Mellon, of the treasury department is interested probably will be filed to- morrow with the special- senate com- mittee investigating the bureau. Bureau officials told the committee today that this probably would be done in answer to insinuations by com- mittee witnesses that Mellon's com- panies had received preferential I treatment in tax matters. The comn mittee will also receive from the bur- eau by request of Senator Couzens. Michigan who has been conducting the investigations, a copy of the bur-, eau records of the tax statement he received and which involved large fig- ures. Senator Couzens explained that he would present this record to show the opportunity for graft that exist- ed in the bureau. Chief interest in to-days hearing on the part of the committee members went to the question of what the ag-! gregate of tax rebates, or abatements E or other allowances might be. The officials present could not estimate this, which is in addition to the tax refunds made to the bureau and which ran last year to more than $123,000,- Issue Of Garg Features Well Known Parody Dance' Tickets To Go On Sale Today Tickets to the Military ball, which will be held April 25 in Waterman and Barbour gymndsiums, will be on sale from 1 to 5 o'clock this afternoon in the main lobby of the Union.

P.)j -The Mellon income tax rate schedulej was voted into the revenue tonight by the senate finance' committee in place of the Longworth compromise adoptedS by the house. This schedule, the cen- ter of controversy in the tax bill, was adopted by a vote of 8 to 7. The committee is composed of ten Republicans and seven Democrats. Senator Gerry of Rhode Island and Reed, both Democrats, were absent tonight but were voted by proxy! against incorporating the Mellon rates in the bill so that the seven committee members of that party stood as al unit in opposition to that proposal. The Republicans present were Senator Curtis, Kansas, Reed, Pennsylvania, Stanfield, of Oregon, and Smoot, Utah. Those absent, but voted by proxy, I were Senators Watson,. of Indiana, Earnst of Kentucky, McLean of Con-: necticut and Elkin's of West Virgina, giving a total of 8'for the Mellon'plan. The ,position of both Senator M'e-' Cormick who is out of the city, and of Senator La Folette, who is at home here ill, :toward the Mellon 'rate has ? been. reported by Republican commit- tee members recently as doubtful.

The affair was stagbd un- der the auspices of the Big Ten club, an organization composed of alumni of all of the Conference schools, R. Winfield Adams, baritone soloist with the club, sang several selections. Ohio State gave several vaudeville acts for its share of the program. Per- haps the biggest hit of the evening. it was said, was the medley of school songs given by the Big Ten club chor- isters. The local club, under the guidance of George Oscar Bowen, gave several groups of chorus singing, their efforts being mainly toward a more1 classical type of entertainment than! was offered by Ohio State. Booth's orchestra furnished some of the in- strumental music on the program. The local club arrived in Cleveland Saturday evening and stayed at the Winton hotel.
