DECIDES UPON
EXTRA SESSION
Wilson Says Congress Will Con.
vene About April IS.
TARIFF LEGISLATION FIRST
President Elect Declares Pledges Of
che Party Ought to Be Redeemed
as Promptly as Possible.

New York Nov. 16.-GOvernof
Woodrow Wilson announced that i'm
mediately after his inauguration as
president of the United States he
would call an extraordinary session
Of congress to convene not later than
April II for the purpose of revising
the tariff.
The president elect will sail for
Bermuda this afternoon for a vacation
and will return on Dec. 16. To set at
rest in the meantime speculation as
to what he would do with regard to
tariff revision he issued the following
statement:
Il shall call congress together in eX.
tra0rdinary session not later thai
April Is. | shall do this not only be
cause | think that the pledges of the
party ought to be redeemed as prompt
ly as possible. but also because |
know it to be in the interest of bust
ness that all uncertainty as to what
the particular items Of tariff revision
are to be should be removed as soon
AS possible"
Beyond this brief announcement the
governor said he had nothing further
to say. Most Of the opinions he haG
received from public men seemed to
be in favor of an extra session, hs
said
fastened His Announcement.
The governor did not intend to ex-
press himself about an extra session
so soon after his election. Although
he has favored the idea of an extra
session because the present arrange
ment would not bring the new con
gress into session until thirteen
months after its election he had eX-
pected to spend more time i'll ascer
tanning public opinion.
With the time TO be consumed in
discussion the governor felt that II
an extra session were not called the
benefits of tariff revision would be
postponed for practically two years.
Throughout the campaign he reiter-
ated that he desired an immediate re-
vision of the tariff and that Demo
cratic leaders knew perfectly vel!
how to proceed about 1t.
The governor was impressed by the
argument also that with an early an
nouncement as to an extra session
Democratic leaders in congress could
begin to take counsel at an early
date so that much Of the preliminary
xresS convened on April Is.

TAXING CATS.

In gravely considering the suggestion
that tax he placed on cats. in order to
augment it's fund for armament, the
German government will doubtless not
be deferred by the objection raised in
this country that such a tax would in
cense the old maids Of Germany. In the
first place. old maids are not numerous
there, and, In the second place. cats
are no more pets and companions Of
that class than they are of others. You
may not have noticed It. but II is a fact
that there are many men who are cat
fanciers. The interest Of the general
public in the taxation of domestic fe-
lines would be greater II the tax would
shut off their night noises. That, how
ever, is not likely to be accomplished.
