THE OSSA OF FALSEA00D
Continued from Page 1.)

Mr.. German. Was it intended to spent
the money raised on the bonds or would
the executive branch thwart the will Of
congress by not spending what congress
had ordered spent. Referring to the
Dingley emergency tariff bill, Mr.. Cor
man asserted that 1t had never beer
intended to pass and that X passed Il
would not have yielded revenue sufficien
to meet the requirements of the govern
ment
II suggest to the senator from Ohio
continued Mr.. German, that II he is IN
earnest In reaching an bipartisan rem
edy, let us agree on three thingS-the
repeal of that error which crept into the
present law as to alcohol used in the arts
which repeal will save $15,000,000; then
tax on tea, which every one in the
United States will approve at cents
cents or 10 cents a pound, and then q
duty on coffee, which would be so small
that no one would feel it"
Mr. German said these three RENE
dies would yield 0,000, 900 to $4,000 900
besides the saving of s15,000,00 If the
Ohio senator would agree to this nom
partisan proposition, said Mr.. Gorman,
senators could unite and save the treas
ury This and the emergency certin-
Gates provided for the financial anairs
of the country.
The senator referred to the consplcu-
Gus Republican candidate who was
hoped to direct an administration which
would have protection until 1t became
exclusion, the candidate of party Oh
extravaganza In expenditures.
IF this congress adjourns without
making provisions for the treasury,
said Mr. German, in conclusion. the
responsibility must rest with those who
control both branches of congress. IL
you say that an emergency tariff bill
was offered, then the senator from Mon
tana Carter has given you an answer
and has rendered service to the coun-
try in his manly exposure of the bill:
Mr.. Mills withdrew his appeal from
the ruling of the chair, and moved in
stead that the German amendment be
laid on the table. This motion prevail

Mr.. PETER of Kansas followed with an
amendment providing that all appro-

issued as required. This amendment was
