Washington, May 26.-The size of
the nations tax burden for the first
year of the war was debated yesterday
by the senate finance committee with
out reaching a final decision. All MEM
bers are said, however, to regard ma
terfal reductions of the house revenue

sary and certain.
Consensus of opinion in the commit
tee apparently favors total Of be-
tween $1,250,000.000 and $1,500,000,-
900.
Several tentative plans are under
debate. Among them is reduction or
substitution of a new tax system for
the house levy of five per cent on the
automobile and other industries. Com
mittee sentiment is said to be strong
ly against what has been termed the
house taxation OF special industries.

FOOD BILL UP
IN BOTH HOUSES
Opposition To First Meas
ure Vigorous If Not
Widespread
fRx Aasociated Press.l

!. washington, May decentralization
of the governments first food bill, pro-
viding for a survey and measures to
stimulate production got well under
way yesterday in both houses of con-
gress. It will be kept under debate al
most continuously until passed.
Speech making was confined largely
to the opposition, vigorous If not wide
spread, with Senator Reed and former
Speaker Cannon, the chief objectors.
Senator Reed declared that any law
which sought to interfere with supply
and demand was essentially wrong,
while Representative Cannon insisted
that the whole survey program was Ill
advised and unnecessary.
Representative Graham of Pennsyl-
vania, won a. fight against giving the
department blanket authority to sum-
mon witnesses from any point in the
United States. Chairman Lever, of the
agriculture committee agreed to an
amendment giving witnesses the right
to refuse to testify at a point more
than 800 miles from home.
Senator Walsh gave notice that he
would move to strike from the bill the
section giving the secretary Of agricul-
ture an appropriation to purchase
seed and sell to the farmers at cost
when in his Judgment 1t is necessary.
Various amendments are being pre-
pared by other senator's.
Senator Sherman criticized the
Council Of National Defense for di-
recting certain products to be given
preferential shipments by the railroads
and declared other industries were suf-
fering. He charged the high prices of
wheat in part to the inability to get
cars.

lBv Associated Press.l

Petrograd, May 26, via London
Gen. Nicholas " Ruzsky, who arrived
here yesterday after relinquishing the
command of the Russian army on the
northern front, spoke hopefully Of the
improvement in the morale of the
troops on that front. He said that
there was no fraternizing with the
enemy now and no deficiency in the
shell supply, but that owing TO local
conditions an offensive on q large scale
was impossible.
If the Improvement continues and
the Russian armies fulfill their duty
toward their own country and their
allies, General RuZsky believes the
Germans can be beaten by autumn and
forced to accept the allies peace
terms.
Odessa, May rs, via London.-Ad-
dressing a congress of 200 delegates

off, commander OF the Rumanian forces
said:
while the principle of peace with
out annexations or indemnities Is
course of the war. 1t Is q principle
to be realized at q peace conference,
not by the armies In the trenches. Who
ever sincerely desires peace should aim
at victory, especially after the revolu-
ton, when victory Is Indispensable in
order that we shall not lose our newly
gained liberty. The country is in dan
ger. Let us help IL to know that never
were we so strong as now and never
was the enemy so weak.

call upon you to undertake a vigorous
offensive, but for that, a high warlike
spirit and strict military discipline
must be restored"

GOLD FLOWING
into TREASURY
(By Associated Press, /,

Washington, May 26.-The amount OF
gold flowing into the treasury these
days from ordinary sources of taxation
has eclipsed all previous records. For
the first twenty-four days of May, il
aggregated $159,057,267, bringing the
total for the fiscal year up to $794, ,667.-
337, or approximately $500 100000 more
then a year ago, which then stood as
a new high record.
The chief source of revenue thus far
in May has been the income tax which
has yielded nearly $9,OO0,O0 against
about 100000 for the corresponding
period last year. The tremendous in
crease is attributd to tn patriotism OF
the taxpayers, who, believing the gov
ernment needs the money are making
their payments a month earlier this
year than formerly. Ohicials estimate
that the income tax will yield approx
imately $685.. 100000 this year, which Is
more than s50.000,0 900 in excess of the
sum estimated last fall when the
amendment increasing the tax was en-
acted.

Washington, May 26.-Secretary
Baker made public yesterday a letter
he has addressed to the governors of
all states, calling for cooperation in
keeping the army mobilization camps
free from improper surroundings and
immoral influences.
Our responsibility in this matter
is notsopen to question" the secretary
wrote. I'VE cannot allow these young
men to be surrounded by vicious and
demoralizing environment, nor can we
leave anything undone which will pro-
tect them from unhealthy influences
and crude forms Of temptation.
The greater proportion of this force
probably will be made up of young
men who not yet have become accus-
TONED to contact with either saloon
or the prostitute and who will be at
that plastic and generous period of life
when moods of Indulgence serve. as
outlets for exuberant physical vitality.
Not only have we an inescapable
responsibility in this matter to the
families and communitions from which
these young men are selected but from
the standpoint Of our duty and our
determination to create an efficient

cessity, to do everything in our power

ton and peril We are not going. to be
able to obtain the conditions wanted
without the full cooperation OF the
local authorities. Will you give earn
est consideration to this matter in

II would suggest that your council
make itself responsible for seeing that
the laws in respect to these matters
are strictly enforced. This relates not
only to the camps established under
federal authority but to the more or
less temporary mobilization points of
the national guard units. 1t relates too,
to the large centers through which SOL
diers will constantly be passing.
