Opposition Is Developing.

Considerable opposition to some of the
features of the act are developing,
though the leaders declared many MEM
hers were under misapprehension as to
the exact working of the act. To clear up
MISUNDERSTANDING was the desire of the
committee at the outset and this task
was undertaken by Mr. Hull.
The first vote of the day. before the
income tax was taken up. was on a mo-
non, of Representative Phelan of Massa-
cirasetts to take boots and shoes from the
free list, and make them dutiable at 10
per cent ad valorem. This defeated, he
offered an amendment for per cent
duty, which also was lost by an over
whelrning vote.
Before the caucus met the ways and
means committee considered some amend
ments, none of which is vital. but which
would change rates on minor commodi-
ties. They We're to be offered to the
caucus.
The committee also framed an amend
ment to the income tax section changing

Exemption Limit.

How the ways and means committee
had arrived at $4,000 as the exemption
limit for the income tax was the first
subject of inquiry. some members asking
if 5000 would not be better, and others
demonstrating an idea that the exemption
should be lower.
A lower exemption, Mr.. Hull explained.
would necesstate a bill with so many
special exemptions that it would be diff
cult of enforcement. and also would entail
so much administrative work to make
it Improbable BY fixing the exemption

HUSBAND MUST BE AMERICAN
Popular Singer Declares They Are the
Best In the World, and Ferhaps
She is Right.

A young American singer who re-
turns 70 this country after a success
full career abroad expecting to reap
here high hoonrs and much money, an
nounces that she is a candidate for
matr.mony, but only American men
need apply. Her verdict is that the
Russlln husband is CT Il the German

Italian broke" thu paniri. ealous
and lazy and the Eng .hman Dc ''eer-
ing. These congratulations a I'M
doubtetly too strong There ;-se as
good husbands in each of the coun-
tries as anywhere, but the foreigner
who deliberately hunts an American
girl is apt to be an adventurer, and
We hear Of all the bad cases. We do
not hear of the thousands OF American
women happily married and living in
every country in Europe.
1t is to be hoped that the singer will
find husband with none OF the bad
qualities mentioned and with all of
the virtues. We feel at liberty. how
ever. to point out that there are some
mighty bad husbands in this country
and that American birth alone is no
guarantee of perfection. 1t is true,
however. that the ordinary American
husband is the best trained animal
in captivity. He eats out of his wife's
hand and signs checks and is thankful
for the opportunity. There are millions
of such husbands now and millions
of candidates for the yoke.-Philadel-
