The automobile reductions are es- timated to cost the national revenue more than "5.000.000 s. year. which means that much into the taxpayers' pockets. The taxes almost invariably were passed on by the manufacturer and dealer direct to the purchaser. On passenger cars and motor- cycles the rate is made 8 per cent in- stead of 5 per cent. This cuts the tax on a $2.000 car from $100 to $130. Dealers who have paid tax at the old rats on cars now held in stock may obtain a refund of the difference of 2 per cent. Ends ,Trttclr Tax The tax on trucks is entirely elimi- nated. It was I per cent under the old law. The new at also repeals the irritating item of “misfortune taxes." This was the tax on tires. tubes. parts and accessories —— the things one has to buy from the road side dealer when his car breaks down. These automobile reductions are regarded in Washington as a. conces- sion to the public rather than as necessary for the good of business. Patrons of the better moving pic- ture theatres will not have to pay so much tax. if any. There is no tax under the new law upon any ticket priced up to and including 75 cents. The old limit was 50 cents. Cigar Tax Out On the cheaper cigars the tax is , cut in half. The revenue from cigars is estimated to be reduced from “8.000.000 a you to $20,000,000 The cigar manufacturers submitted figures showing that their business was falling of! steadily. attributing the slump to the high tax rate. On the low price cigars the tax is fixed in some cases at 75 cents a thou- sand. in others at $8 a thousand. 0n cigars to retail at more than 20 cents each the rate is reduced from 1151 16818.50 per thousand.

A committee of the Yale faculty appointed to consider the regulations daily and Sunday. next year. has re- poried its findings to the faculty and to the Yale corporation. The mat- ter was discussed informally by the faculty at its meeting yesterday. and will be taken up in the same way by the corporation at its meeting Saturday. No final action on the ro- port will be taken by either body for another month. The committee recommended that from the beginning of the next col- lege year students of the college be not required to attend the Sunday services, believing that the exercise of compulsion in this regard bud in- jured rather than helped religious interests. It preferred to see stu- dents attructod to the service by other means. it suggested measures which might further the study of religion in the academic cirriculum. and regulations which could be cm. ployéd to check excessive absences from New Haven over the week-end, The c o m m it to e distinguished sharply the daily chapel from the Sunday services. It found in the daily chapel assembly one of the Vital institutions of the college group. bringing students and rep- resentatives of the faculty at the be- ginning of every working day. and fostering a consciousness of unity which could not otherwise be attain- ed. The committee believed that the element of compulsion had been oxcromphnslzod. and that the allow- ance of absences could be increased without endangering the integrity of the morning assembly. It suggested ways in which the interest and ap- ponl of daily chapel could be bright- ened, and expressed the conviction that with the. dean in personal daily charge the institution can be main. mined as an effective part of the life of the college. As Bnttcll chapel cannot hold the whole body of un- dergraduates the committee recom- mended that next, your a limited number of coats be reserved for seniors. but that attendance bo not required of the senior class.
