David Lloyd George Intro
duces Budget in House
of Commons.
TOTAL EXPENDITURE
TO BE $1,O29, 1925, 900
Proposals Include Higher Tax
Rate on Incomes and Raising
Death Duties.
tBy Cable 10 The Tribune. ]


London, May "a sweeping budget was
introduced in the House of Commons yes
terday by David Lloyd George. Chancellor
Of the Exchequer. Five million pounds
over and beyond the revenue which would
be forthcoming on the existing basis OF
taxation is required to meet the esti-
mated expenditure, and in addition TO that
is a large sum TO be given the local au-
thorities in relief for rates imposed for
national services. besides money for new
expenditure in other directions. The def
icit for the year. TO be made up some
how or other. is GO. $4,000.
Mr.. Lloyd George handled the whole
thing with his usual gusto. Ell outlined
the far-reaching plans for taking the
burdens off the localities, and explained
how he was going to increase the tax on
big incomes and take more money from
big estates on the death of their owners.
A hundred new plans OF the Chancellor
were laid bare as he proceeded with his
speech. There are schemes for helping
the medical side of the insurance act. for
paving half the cost OF feeding school
children where the local authorities take
the initiative, and for giving further re-
lief from the income tax TO people with
children
The changes in the income tax will hit
men with big incomes pretty severely.
For instance, the Duke of Westminster's
tax will be raised from $4,000 to 5000. ooo.
Lord Howard De Walden's from 100000
to Sl65.OOo. the Duke OF Bedford's from
$50. 900 TO s13l,00O and oLrd Iveagh's from
t62 900 to 10000. There are details In the
speech which covered the tremendous
field OF the 1914 budget which will be only
less memorable than the famous "Peo-
pies" budget Of 1902

fBy Cable to The Tribune. ]

London. May 4.-F'ollowlng so close on
Mary Richardson's attack on the "Roke-
by Venus" at the National Gallery, the
attempted destruction of John S. Sar-
gents portrait OF Henry James, to-day
at the Royal Academy, caused the ut
most indignation and horror and all
women may be excluded from the va
r,ous exhibitions at the art galleries for
some time TO come.
The government is bewildered by the
suffragette attacks, and it Is said that
several members OF the Cabinet strongly
condemn the Weakened policy OF Home
Secretary McKenna in allowing sufrra-
eettes TO leave prison because OF hunger
strikes.
The woman who figured In to-day
episode, and who gave the name OF Mrs.
Woods. gave the James portrait TWO
vicious blows with butchers cleaver'
one on the shoulder and the other on the
head. forcing powdered glass deep into
the fabric OF the picture, which Is SAID
to be irreparably ruined.
The largest cut is on the left side, ana
obliterated an eve Another is across the
mouth. and a third near the chin. the
rent on the left side of the face is three
inches long. and the torn ends OF the
canvas are frayed and uneven.
Another blow aimed at the body or the
figure did not do as much damage as
the others. but stlll it created damage.
There seems to be small doubt that
the woman intended 10 mutilate Copes

able 10 approach near enough to damage
II and so took the nearest other picture

M'ADOO HANDS JOLT
TO SMALL TAXPAYERS
Those Whose Incomes Are $500
Must Pay Government Part Of
Earnings, loo.

Taxpayers who have figured they could
earn a comfortable income and still cut
under the income tax law, were dis
heartened yesterday when Secretary OF
the Treasury McAdoo ruled that s. 500
and not So 900 would be the minimum in
come tax for the year 1913
1t seems that the Secretary of tn.
Treasury. after examining the new law.
discovered that Uncle Sam had a right
to levy on incomes for the present year.
There are only ten months. in a taxable
sense, to the year 1913 The law reads:
The tax shall be computed from March
/, to December IL"
As soon as he received this little bit
of consolation the Secretary OF the
Treasury cast an eye on n large number
of g, 500 incomes, and informed the own
ers of those incomes that they would
be expected to add their mite since ten
months is ive-sixths Of twelve months
and five-sixths of 5000 is $500.

SAM WILLETTS Meets
wife in Hotel HERE
Embarrassing Situation Breaks Up
Her Intended Divorce Talk
with Attorney.
BOTH MAKE QUICK GETAWAY

Sam" willetts. the New York society
man and clubman. made q hurried trip to
Washington yesterday. met his beautiful
young wife accidentally In the Willard,
and left at o'clock last night for the
metropolis without giving even his most
intimate friends a hint as to the course
he will take in Mrs. willetts' suit for d.
vorce.
The Washington Herald told exclusively
yesterday that Mr.. Willetts had fled q
suit for divorce in Fairfax County, charg-
Ing cruelty. The personal story of her
matrimonial unhappiness brought in the
names OF Clarence II. Mackay and other
society people. into whose homes IL is al
legged Mr.. willetts declined to Introduce
his wife.
Mr.. willetts hurried to Washington as
soon as he got wind of the divorce pro-
ceedings and registered at the willard
Mrs. Willetts, knowing nothing of this,
went to the hotel by appointment for a
conference with her Virginia lawyer
Quite equal to the embarrassing situa-
ton, Mrs. Willetts stopped suddenly
when she recognized her husband and
greeted him with a pleasant ..Howdy
de-" She then turned and walked hur-
r!edly out Of the hotel Mr.. willetts ac-
cepted his wifes greeting, but had he
wished to speak to her, she had gone be-
fore he recovered from surprise at the
accidental meeting.
AS it turned out. Mrs. willetts did not
meet her attorneys. and as soon as she
could pack handbag. started by auto
mobile for her Virginia estate. She re-
fused to add anything to the details Of
the charges against her husband, saving
they all would be included in the bill of
particulars.

i. 5. MUST make
PEACE PROPOSAL
Grave Fears that The Hague
Conference Will Be Allowed
to Go by Default.
INSTANT ACTION URGED
This Country Will Be Asked to Take
Initial Step at New York
Meeting Tomorrow.

Action in the interest Of the proposed
third peace conference at The Hague
In 1915 probably will be taken by the
United States government in the i'm
mediate future. This was indicated yes
terday.
There is grave danger that the con-
ference will be permitted to go by de-
iault, unless some government acts
promptly. While the second conference
at The Hague in 1907 recommended that
the third conference be held in 1915, no
definite arrangements were made for its
converting on that or any other date.
The peace advocates in Europe, but
more particularly in the United States.
are much alarmed over the apparent In
difference Of the European powers, and
are looking to the United States to take
some step which will insure that the
conference be held.
Senator Elihu Root. one Of the fore
most leaders In the world movement
for international peace. has for some
time been giving his attention to the
crisis confronting the proposed confer
ence, and yesterday conferred with
Secretary of State Bryan in regard TO
IL. He had previously discussed the
matter with other oficials Of the ad-
ministration, and indicated his desire
that the United States take action
promptly. lest the conference be post
poned for lack of any initiative effort.
1t is probable that the action of the
United States will take the form of a
note to all the powers signatory to
The Hague conventions. reminding
them of the last conferences recon-
mendation that another conference be
held in 1915. and seeking to obtain
their agreement to a meeting next
year. as planned.
Meetings Called Tomorrow.
In the interest OF this movement a
meeting will be held In New York tomor-
row for the purpose Of considering ways
and means by which favorable action
can be obtained from the several gov
ernments. Senator Root, Andrew d.
White, Nicholas Murray Butler, and
others prominent in the international
peace movement. will be among those
present at the meeting. 1t Is expected
that resolutions ealing the attention OF
the world to the fact that the conference
is supposed to be held next year, and
asking that action be taken by the
United States and other governments
will be adopted.
The second conference also asked that
the governments appoint an international
committee to be intrusted with the work
of preparing a program at least two
years in advance of the date suggested
for the next meeting. This committee
has never been appointed. The United
States is the only government which
even appointed a program committee OF
its own to cooperate with the proposed
international program committee. This
committee consisted of j. Reuben Clark,
then Solicitor OF the Department of
State: Brig. Gen. Enoch A Crowder.
Judge advocate general Of the army. and
Rear Admiral Richard Wainwright, Of
the navy.
