| effort of Representative Moore, Penn

sion for a joint committee on war ex.
penditures failed when Acting Speaker
Fitzgerald ruled that Moore's motion
to recommit the bond bill with specific
instructions to the committee to put
the joint committee proposal in the bill
was out of order.
An amendment offered by Represen.
tative Cannon, Illinois, providing that
holders of bonds in amounts up ia
$4,000 shall not be subjected to any
taxation except State inheritance
taxes, was adopted by the House. An
amendment offered by Representative
Gillette, Massachusetts, reducing the
amount that the Treasury Department
may spend to float bond issues from
one-seventh to one-tenth of per cent.
was defeated, by n to 6S.
The proposal of Representative
Johnson, Washington, to authorize the
Treasury Department to expend not to
exceed $25O0,OO0 to advertise forth
coming bond issues in the daily news
papers brought forth a great deal of
acrimonious debate, in which the daily
papers were accused of selfshness and
lack of patriotism. The amendment
was defeated by vote Of los to 27.
Immediately after the passage of the
bill Majority Leader Kitchin an.
nounced that the House would take up
the war insurance bill, over which a
bitter struggle is anticipated. No time
limit was set for discussion of this bill
and it may run along for several days.
After that the House will take up the
urgent deficiency bill, the passage of
which will mark the conclusion of all
except several unimportant features of
the Houses business for this season.
Debate on the bond bill was marked
by demands for more taxes to be borne
by the present generation for the sup
port of the war and fewer bond issues
to be loaded on to future generations.
