tanned Will BE Accepted.

The conveninE OF Congress brings
one of the most important sessions
that body has held in years. The f.
nancial condition of the treasury
makes much legislation necessary to
get sufficient revenue to meet current
expenses and wipe out the deficit. and
the new national defense scheme of
preparedness. which calls for $3.50 900,
900 year more money than the gov
ernmcnt has been spending puts the
administration to its wits end as to
how the money Is to be raised. The
President doesn't want to issue bonds
neither do his party leaders. but there
seems no avoiding 1t, II the new army
and navy plans are to be carried
through.
The Presidents message deals al
most entirely with these. It's very
easy to spend money but It's not SO
easy to get it Congressman kitchin
of North Carolina. the new majority
leader, who H. not in cympathy With
the Presidents militaristic program,
anyway. but upon whose shoulders
rests the burden o. providing the cash,
would like to know how this extraor-
dinary sum is TO be raised.
OF the many methods. suggested, two
have already been agreed upon in the
minds Of a majority of the Democratic
members OF both houses. These ere
the retention of the present tariff on
sugar and the ra-enactment of the war
revenue act A poll of members shows
that q majority of Democrats and Re-
publicans in both houses will vote for
the maintenance OF the sugar tariff. A
mere handful of Democrats have an
nornced that they will oppose it, The
Republicans, Of course, are practically
unanimous for It, Some want to re-
store the old Payne-Aldrick rates, and
a few Democrats would be willing on
the ground Of needing revenue. but
the large Democratic majority in the
Senate assures the enactment of a
measure that will meet The Presidents
approval. A parry caucus on .his
question will probably be held at an
early date.
In the list Of Democratic Senators
who have stated that they will vote to
retain the present sugar tariff are
Williams, of Mississippi, Fletcher, of
Florida, Walsh and Myers, of Montana
MARITIME. of New Jersey, and Chamber
lain, of Oregon, Thomas, of Colorado,
said he would favor it only if we can
not get along without it" Senator
Thompson, of Kansas, has not an
nounced his intention.
The old Payne-Aldrich tariff on sug-
ar yielded something like sS0.O0O,00O
revenue; the reduction under the I'm
derwood bill cut this to between $35,
100000 and $40,O0O,0OO. The pressing
need of the treasury for money caused
the President to agree to keep the
present % per cent tariff In effect
But the Democrats make it plain
that they are willing to this only be-
cause the government needs the monev
and not because they are ready to con-
fess that their tariff bill is failure.
On the other hand they still blindly
assert that the war put them in bad"
and that but for it the treasury would
be rolling in wealth. notwithstanding
Secretary Redfield for months past
has been issuing statements giving
stupendous figures Of what the war is
doing for us.
