 Senators on the committee feel that unless the administration ex- erts strong pressure the Senate will insist on retaining the Roose- welt amendment and the House members are of the decided opin- ion that the House will not ac- cept it. There have been all sorts of suggestions of trades or con- promises but none has been ac- ceptable in a case where both committees feel that a question of principle is involved.

WASHINGTON, May 9-The war tax bill extending its excises to the fabric of. every American home was formally presented to the house to- day by the ways and means commit tee with plans for quick passage.
 As a forecast of what may come later, it proposes special taxes ito raise s1,S00,000, 900 in addition to the present normal annual revenue of S1,500 ,000,0 ,000 When its terms are effective the American people will be paying direct taxes of s3S per capita. The people of the British Isles-half as many-now pay per capita taxes of s60. While the principal features of the new war levy are the increase in income and profit taxes, increase in internal revenue rates and increase of customs duties, many provisions reach the innermost structure of taxes. probably the most formidable ever faced by the American people.
 Tax On Everything
 The household light, heat and
 telephone bills, admission tickets
 to amusements, fire and life in- surance, railway tickets, automo- piles, automobile tires and tubes,
 soft drinks, postage rates, golf
 clubs and baseball bats, club dues and host of other everyday nee
 essities or luxuries come under
 the taxation.
 Newspapers. to Suffer
 Increased postage rates on newspapers, arranged in a zone
 system are such that publishers
 say they will force many news
 papers out of business. Already protests against many features of
 the law are pouring in, and at-
 tacks upon it will center in the public sight before the senate finance committee.

 Democratic Leader Kitchin an nounced that he hoped to pass the bill by Saturday
 In presenting the bill. the ways and means committee made a report saying in part:
 People Now to Bear Half
 After carefully considering the experience of the European countries at war the committee believes it is sound economic policy for the pres ent generation to bear a fair propor- ton of the burden of financing the war and recommend that the remain ing contemplated expenses of the government for the remainder of this and the whole of the next fiscal year be raised by taxation. The effect of this recommendation is that about one-half of this contemplated expen- allure will be met by taxation and the other half from the proceeds from bonds.

The present provisional government was formed shortly after the revolu- tion to hold office until a national election should determine the form of Russia's political institutions. This government and particularly Foreign Minister Milukoff have been opposed on question of international policy by the radical council of the workmen's and soldiers deputies and recently threatened to resign unless given free hand to prosecute the war vigor- ously and observe the agreements en- tered into by the country with its allies.
 The workmen's and soldiers dele gates then decided by close vote to uphold the government and it was stated that the crisis had been passed.
