Liberal Provisions Are Made ' for Good Roads, Rural

(By Review Leased Wire.)

WASHINGTON. May 1s.-Seereta- ry McAdoo today submitted 10 Chair man Kitchin of the House Ways and Means committee and Chairman Sim mons of the Senate Finance commit tee. revised estimates of the govern ments, receipts and expenditures for the remainder of the current fiscal year and the fiscal year ending June 30. 1917. tending to show that much less new revenue will have to be rais- ed to meet the bill for preparedness and other large contemplated expen- ditures than had been supposed.
 Surprises SkepticaI
 Only about $50. 100000 in addition al revenue will have to be provided during the coming year. MT. McAdoo said. This is less by s50.000000 than the most conservative members of Congress calculated would be needed. All of the additional revenue will come from taxes on incomes. inheri- tances and munitions under a plan approved last week by President Will son IT is probable that all the rev enue measures now before Congress. including provision for preparedness tariff commission and the eucour- agement of the dye stuffs industry will be included in an omnibus bill The President is understood to ap- prove that plan.
 For New Army
 Secretary McAdoo's figures show that a balance in the general fund ex elusive Of disbursing officers credits probably will be S15o O0o. GOO al the end of the present fiscal year and $40. 500. 900 at the end of the fiscal year of 1917. This estimate included expenditures likely to he made for the proposed increase in the standing ar my on the basis of the measure pass ed last night by the Senate. and ex-, penditures which probably will be made next year
 For Good Roads
 In addition 10 preparedness meas ures. the revived estimate presented by NIT McAdoo included liberal pro visions for good roads. rural credits and expenditures to cope with floods Tn making uD the estimates. the ad- ditional cost to the country of prepar- edness during the year 1917 was plac- ed at from 9O.000.e 900 10 s100.0O0. .0O0 9 figure probably considerably less than appropriations 10 he authorized by Congress but approximating the sum which actually would be spent during the year under the act
 An estimate compiled by Mir. Me Adoo when Congress convened last December showed deficit of S62.O00.- O0O in the general fund June 90. 1917. instead of the $40. .500. 900 that is in the present estimate. The previous estimate contemplated the extension of the emergency measure which eN- pires by limitation December 31 next In completing the revised estimate Mir. McAdoo figured on eliminating the stamp tax features of the measure from July 1. next.

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-Discuss- ion of the possibility of an early re- storation of peace in Europe and of plans to prevent war in the future was given added impetus among diplomats and officials here today by an an nouncement at the White House that President Wilson had accepted an in vitation to speak either Friday or Sat urday of next week before a meeting of the League to Enforce Peace. of which Former President Taft is presi- dent
 Since the outbreak of the European war. the President has declined many tatiions to speak before peace or ganizations. but recently he advocated some of the principles for which the League to Enforce Peace is working.
 Europe Expectant
 While no details of what the Presi- dent will say in his address next week were disclosed. it is understood. he will make a statement on the subject of peace calculated 10 attract deep interest in European capitals. The address will be carefully thought out in advance and the President fully realizes the significance of anything he may say on the subject at present.
 The Hague Birthday
 Attention was centered on the peace question here today because it vas the anniversary of the first Hague Conference. observed by meet ines in several cities of the United States and in other neutral nations celebrating the occasion. The Wash ineion branch of the WOmen's Peace Party adopted resolutions urging the President to call a meeting of neutral countries to try and bring about a cessation of hoStilities.

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-Adminis- iration forces in Congress lost the frs; skirmish in the naval prepared ness campaign today when the House committee broke a five day deadlock and completed the naval appropria- ton bill without approving the five wear building program advocated by President Wilson and Secretary Dan ielsf
 As finally agreed to, the bill author iZes the construction in 1917 of five battle cruisers, as against two dread naughts and two battle cruisers rec om~ ended by Secretary Daniels; for scout cruisers, an increase of one scout over the Departments program ten destroyers as against fifteen rec commended: twenty submarines, three to be fleet submarines compared with five fleet and 25 coast defense sub marines, recommended: one hospital ship, one oil fuel ship. One gunboat recommended was stricken out and the fuefa and hospital ships were add cd from Secretary Daniels program for the second year.
 Votes S24O, ,OOO.OOO
 The total amount carried by the bil is s240.OO0. coo, the largest naval ap- propriation ever placed to Congress While the appropriation proposed is if anything. an increase over the De- partment's plans, failure of the five year program and the fact that no dreadnaughts were provided for, make ,ho h;lI ,,pcatirfoctorv fo adn1inicf ra ton officials.
 House and naval officials are con fident that the final bill will provide for at least two battleships and four battle cruisers.
 Politics Enters
 The deadlock in the House came as a result of the meeting of mem bers of the committee at which ii was decided to oppose the five year pro gram and to seek to increase the 1917 appropriations over the figure sug- gested by the Department.
 Five of the thirteen Democrats not only opposed the continuing program but also were determined to cut down the 1917 estimates and not to vote for any battleship appropriations. They were willing to support four battle cruiser program, however. and the final compromise was effected by Chairman Padgett with Representa- tive Hensley of Missouri leader of The so-called Little Navy Demo crats." who induced the other four to join him in agreeing to the five bat tlesbip cruiser plan. To meet this concession Mir. Padgett was compelled to abandon the five year program and it was not brought to vote in the committee.
