Veteran's Compensation Bill Favorably Reported
Chairman Snoot Endorses Loan Measure to
Senate
Washington, Feb. 18 — (UPI) — The senate finance committee voted to endorse a favorable report on the house bill to amend the federal funds administration certificate券.
The bill was reported without a amendment despite the unrequievable opposition of the Administration. Clairman Richard McCormick reported the bill to the senate at 12:30 p.m., intercepting a speech by Senator King, Democrat, Utah, on deportation charges.
King resumed his speech at once. The committee went into executive action after Mr. Kerr said he and Pamela close to the President freely predicted that he would veto the bill, which was a major blow to his hear on the President last night to change his position and sign it in view of the overwhelming sentiment in both houses in an explicitly intractable passage over the veto.
Nevertheless, his position was viewed to be unchanged.
Washington, Feb. 18—(UP)—Hoverer's opposition to the pending veterinary compensation legislation was presented in a committee in a letter to Chairman Simon.
The letter said there were "a number of most serious objections to the bill" because it was written to the country. The measure as passed overwhelmingly by the house would increase the loan limit on adjusted servicing for borrowers, which is a face value. Some of the objections the letter and dealt with "matters of method" and some with "fundamental issues."
Hoyer stated that the bill would create a potential liability of $1,712,000. At her deducting the value of loans made to the government, she said the "cash" needed would aggregate $1,230,000,000. The letter said if 75 per cent of the veterans took advantage of the new loan provision the pensionary would have to raise $1,000,000,000.
National Educators to Meet

State May Produce New Product, Hydraulic Lime
Announcement Made Today by Moore, Kansas Geologist
Kansas may produce hydration to displace that now imported from Texas, and it does so today by Dr. R. C. Moore, state geologist and head of the department of geology at the University. The statement was made in a letter United States Bureau of Standards on samples of Wallace county, Kansas, that indicated he had been indicted that the Kansas mud might be burned into a lime having hydration lie properties. Additional studies are in progress.
Diatomaceous earth, a pure写实 marl, was found in considerable quantity in Wallace County, Kansas, in 1900. M. K. Elias of the Kansas Survey staff and former professor of mineralogy at Ural Mining College, in Russia, and also former chief geologist for the large mining regions of Russia.
Imported hydraulic lime is used extensively, especially in the eastern part of the state. It is used for purposes, both interior and exterior, being preferred to portland cement because it is whiter. This cement is used in construction where low-setting cement is required, as in foundations for buildings, and the line of tunnels constructed by the should
Hydraulic line never has been manufactured in the United States, but is often used for sizable quantities. An important factor favoring the Kansas diatomaceous mud is the fact that it contains only a few minerals, and therefore allows show that practically the only conditions of the Kansas marsh are similar to those same proportions as in the famous mark from Du Theil, France, from which the best European hydraulic mud is derived.
Up to the present, only one locality of duttonaceae mall has been explored in detail, and this was done in 1950 by Mr. Elas, along with the Smoky Mountains. The duttonaceae mall is exposed for a distance of three miles along the Smoky Hill bluffs, and the bed averages 6 to 7 feet in thickness. The overburden averages 15 feet, and is not found more than 30m in the area of known outcropping.
The rock is snow white and chalky, and so soft that one can crush it can move easily. The rock is weather cally, and builds prominence benches and bluffs on the gonzo cliffs.
The rock is made of innumerable crushed and powdered small and thin rocks, often mixed with microscopic allied sheets of small algae, called diatoms. The slabs of the two kinds are mixer in a shallow stream through the rock, and it is this natural and rightly proportioned mixture which makes the rock of commercial use.
Preliminary estimates indicate not less than 1,000,000 tons of the rock at this place, which can be removed by strip-mining processes.

SENATE GROUP HEARS DEBATE ON TAX ISSUE
Large K.U. Delegation Attend Committee meeting to Discuss Fraternity Assessments
BOTH SIDES PLEASED
Each Faction Limited to Two or Three Speakers by Chairman
Hilton Gibson, c.33, Frederic Anderson, 132, Henry Ashur of the law firm of Gerrill and Aher, C. O. Bowman, county clerk of Douglas county, Elden Shan, e and i and David Miller Lovett of various incarnations as representatives of various炎症 from Lawrence at the fraternity tax hearing last night in Topika.
It was impossible to determine after the hearing what was the sentiment of the members of the assessment committee, and the rapport to the passing of the Hicks bill which would repeal the act which now excludes fraternity from taxation. The bill will probably be reported back to the Senate without recommendations.
The petition with 250 names presented by the opponents of taxation had been signed by John Gibson, who appeared at the hearing of the home committee on Wednesday, but he did not represent the sentiment of the non-fraudery men was not represented.
The delegations from both sides of the controversy who appeared in Toronto, expressed satisfaction today with the government's response, which they respective cases received.
The hearing by senator Harris' calling on the representatives for fraternity taxation to begin the argument. Because of the large delegations required by senator Harris, required each side to select one or two spokesman.
Hilden Gibson began the arguments for taxation. He pointed out in the beginning of his talk that the culture of fraternity men against non-fraternity men. He showed that the importance of the issue hinged on the justice of fraternity taxation and the ability of the fraternity men to pay.
'Would Not Abolish Greeks'
Gilson said that he would not appear to argue for taxation if a tax would abolish the fraternalities. He pointed out that the city had the coeficient of the city and county by more than $2,500 but would place a burden of only 2.04 per cent on the city.
Gilson argued that the non-fraternity people bring trade to Lawrence as well as to Denver, and thus have less able to pay taxes but nevertheless are taxed, whereas the fraternities are not.
Senator Harris ruled that all of the arguments for taxation should be presented first, so Frederick Anderson was invited to testify. Anderson apologized for the appearance of students arguing for taxation and was assured by Senator Harris that the committee was deacious of hearing all the student viewpoints for taxation.
Taxed in Nine States
Anderson pointed out the nine states, New York, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Michigan, Maine, Illinois, Connecticut. He added that a state withholding feudality taxation to be just and legal. He added that in a minority of three states the decisions had held to federal law.
He declared that fraternities would not be abolished by the imposition of a law, because "the state is to be equally distributed and democratic. He suggested that homes used only nine months for labor should be the same as Henry Asher of the firm of Gorill and Ashar, who were retained by the company to administer the question of tortoise be considered in an academe light. If we were to admit the fact that all such exempling as that of fraternities is both unfair and undemocratic, a strong social strata that fraternities bring.
C. A. Boyman, county clerk of Douglas county, appeared briefly to verify the figures presented in the arguments by both sides.
The representatives opposing taxation were asked by Senator Harris to reconsider their position. They held his position. Cameron, a student and seniority member at the College of Law, also took advantage of the information in the organized houses and declared that the houses would be disbanded.
Since the parents support their children in school she showed that taxation would mean double taxation for parents. But parents of poria men students are self-supporting.
