A bill purposing to take away the tax exemption privileges now enjoyed by Harvard University has been filed in the State Legislature by Representative W.H. Hearn, of East Boston.

The sponsors of the bill are former Representative T.A. Niland, of East Boston; C.M. Boyle, of Peabody; C.J. Mahoney, of Boston; and W.P. Thore, of Squantum. It is reported that the measure was introduced in the nature of a penalty for the action of the University authorities in discharging women cleaners of Widener after the State Minimum Wage Board had recommended an increase in the women's wages.
