ASKS UPH0l0|NG or TREATIES
BY TOLLS EXEMPTIONS
Large Thing TO Oo,' Says kagls
trate, is The Voluntary With
draWd| From Position"
(By Associated Press.)

Washington. d. c., Mar. 5.-Presi-
dent Wilson personally appealed to
congress assembled in joint session
today to susta n national honor of
United States in upholding treaty OBJ
legations by repeating Panama tolls
exemption, against which Great
Britain protests. He asked congress
to do that IN support of foreign
policy of United States, and added
that exemption for American ships
not only was mistaken economic
policy" but was in contravention of
Hay -Pauncefote treaty.
II shall not know how to deal with
other matters Of even greater delicacy
and nearer consequency, if you do
not grant 1t to me n rngrudging
measure said President Wilson
Large thing TO do Is only thing
we can afford to do; voluntary with
drawal from position everywhere
questioned and misunderstood We
ought to reverse our action without
raising question whether we were
right or wrong, and so once more de
serve our reputation for generosity
and the redemption Of every obliga
ton, without quibble or hesitation.
President Wilson's address. the
shortest he has yet delivered to con
gress- exactly APO words was in
part as follows.

UNCLE SAM SLABS TAX ON
MILADY'S TOILET ARTICLES

Anyone who scouts the truth OF
that oft-repeated saying. When all
is said and done. woman stands the
brunt OF war" Is respectfully referred
to Internal Revenue Collector James
]. Brady. He has just received an
other order from Washington.
The latest order slaps q tax on
rouge. powder. toilet water. perfume.
hair tonic. hair dye. bath powder. and
similar "luxuries' OF the toilet.
OF course, the men folks who shave
and thus become consumers of tai
cum powder. suffer some, and then
there's the once-over with the hair
tonic that Is going to cost little
more. The new baby, too, consumes
great quantities Of talcum-"ask the
man who owns one"-but milady's
dressing table gets the real jolt from
the new tax.
So comprehensive has the new tar
been made, that there 10 NO escape.
ANY article selling for Ii cents Is tax
able. the rate being one-eighth Of q
cent for Is to 20 cents, and an added
eighth of a cent for each additional
rs cents.
Manufacturers will have to pay the
tax on their output from now on; re-
tailers will have to pay tax on goods
that they sell from the present date
on, so 1t will create no saving to lay
In a stock.
