Party es were hopelessly scramblethis fight, which re sulted ir. a-, authorization for em of utside counsel. Since it was the proposal to em ploy out.- ic counsel that drew a heated protest from Mellon to Coo lidge and a caustic letter of criti cism of the Senate for the presi dent, this action can be construed oniy as the Senate’s declaration of independence from White House and cabinet domination. » » » The new* tax bill, as put through the Senate, might be properly la beled The Mellon Bill, per Sim mons. Administration Republicans, how ever, from the wry face with which they view- the legislation, apparent ly regard it chiefly as Persimmons. For certainly it is a bitter dose. Incidentally, the enactment of the higher surtax rates proposed by Senator Furnifold McLendel Sim mons, A. B. LL. D., of New’ Bern, North Carolina, brings into promi nence again the dean of th e Demo cratic party in the Senate. Simmons, who is just past 70, rounds out this session four full <.crm in the upper house 24 years dis runner-up for continuity of ser vice on the Democratic side is his North Carolina colleague, Lee Slat er Overman, who also has just turn ’d 70. Overman, however, has only 22 years to his credit. Physically, Simmons is the sena torial Lilliputian. He stands barely over five feet in height. When seated, he is almost lost to sight be hind his desk, and when standing he measures up in height to the average senator when seated. But what he lacks in bodily phy sique, Simmons makes up in cranial capacity. In contrast to his body, his head seems unduly large. And it houses an assortment of financial facts and figures not exceeded in the Senate unless it be those unde’r the hat of Reed Smoot. * » * Interest here now centers in what “Cautious Cal” will do when the tax bill, providing for surtax rates bitterly opposed by Mellon and objected to by Coolidge, reach es the White House. If he votes it, there will be no tax reduction from this session of Congress; none, that will apply to this year’s taxes. That might be a big factor in the coming cam paign. If he signs it, it will be as a tem porary bill to run until, if elected, he can propose another. The present day Norfolk jacket is a reproduction of the chain-mail houberk. .
