ments they will offer, when Chairman Kit
chin brings the measure up in the House
tomorrow.
Among the amendments to be suggested
Is one defining more definitely the character
of foreign securities the President shall ac-
quire from the Allied Governments to whom
a loan of $4,000 600, 900 is TO be advanced.
This opposition is based upon fear that the
unstable condition of some of the Euro
pean Governments as result of the war
may render their securities of little value.
The bond issue bill, as insisted upon by
the President and Secretary McAdoo, placed
no limitation upon those officials as to the
character of obligations they may assume.
Representative Longworth plans an
amendment exempting estates from inher-
itance taxes under the measure. Repre-
sentative Hill, veteran Republican financial
wizard thinks the interest rate on the
bonds should be raised from 3h to 4 per
cent and will propose such an amendment
Another amendment by Representative
Sloan would limit the term of the bonds
to thirty years instead of leaving their
tenure with the discretion of the Secretary
of the Treasury.
The Ways and Means Committee is care

commodities, submitted by Secretary
McAdoo when the emergency revenue bill
was enacted last winter. simultaneously,
leaders are trying to determine the amount
of the war cost to be raised by immediate
taxation and the amount to be left to future
generations to pay. The most generally ac-
