Hard to Think Of Words.

Inability to- choose the right word
often places speaker in an embar-
RAISING position. Many business men
lose much valuable time because they
find It difficult to express what they
want to say when they dictate their
correspondence. Greater freedom and
accuracy in speaking and writing can
be acquired by studying dictionary.
A few minutes devoted to the study Of
words and their meaning each day will
in short time result in great benefit
to anyone who will put that practice
to q test.

Blank Chilean Woman is

Mlneola, n. Y, Dec. Another
mass OF expert testimony was added
today to the volume of evidence al
ready introduced in support of Mrs.
Blanche De Saulles' claim that she
did not know what she was doing
when she shot her divorced husband,
John L. De Saulles, in his Long Island
nome the night of August g. The de-.
tense rested at 2:30 o'clock in the
afternoon. Because District Attorney
Charles R. Weeks did not like the
phrasing of $4,000 word hypothetical
question put to alienists by attorneys
for the defense, he is tonight prepar.
ing similar interrogation, of equal
or greater length, which experts on
diseases of the mind called by the
prosecution will be asked to answer
tomorrow.
Question Too Favorable
Weeks insisted the question sub.
mitted by the defense was based en-
tirely on testimony favorable to Mrs.
De Saulles, ignoring all together state
ments made by witnesses on which
he is depending in large part to con-
vict the young Chilean woman.
Justice David F. Manning instructed
the district attorney to frame another
query including the testimony he
deems most favorable to his side of
the case
1t required an hour and half to
read the question prepared by Mrs.
De Saulles' attorney, Henry A. Utter
hart. Discussion of it's points occu-
pied an additional two hours
When attorneys for the defense
rested their case, Weeks began an
attack on the validity of their claim
that Mrs. De Saulles suffered a ten
day relapse of memory which began
few moments prior to- the time she
fired the revolver shots and ending
when she awoke as a prisoner. in Jail
on August 10. .... ............
Fracture "Baby Spot"
Through Roentgen ray photographs,
Weeks sought to show that the de.
preston of a part of one of Mrs. De
Saulles' skull bones was merely the
area comminly known as the baby
spot" and that it did not mark frac-
ture, as maintained by the defense.
Attorney Utterhart declared his client
suffered fractured skull in an acct
dent when child, was left bit of
bone pressing upon the frontal lobes

Washington, Dec. congress
will have to authorize early in the SEES

American people between now and
July 1 about five billion dollars in
addition to the 1856, 100000 from lib.
erty bonds already authorized by the
to be issued, the billion dollars or less
expected from war savings campaign
and about three billion dollars from
war taxes.
Most congressional leaders believe
the five billion dollar balance must be
provided principally by issue of bonds,
and Secretary McAdoo has told mem
bers of congress that he favOrs this
method. Chairman Kitchin of the
house ways and means committee will
take up the question Immediately and
the committee within week or two
is expected to frame new bond
measures. If this plan is finally adopt
ed, the country probably will be call
ed on to absorb the two more big
liberty bond issues between Feb.
and July /, aggregating more than
$500, 100000.
Loans to Allies
Another big finance question is the
continuance OF loans to the allies. If
the present rate of extending credits
to the allies is continued, the seven
billion dollars authorized credits will
be exhausted by July /, and congress
will have to decide whether to con-
tinue the loans after that time. Six
billion dollars will be required for the
fiscal year beginning next July, if the
rate of half million dollars month
is kept up.
Wide difference of opinion exists in
congress whether the bulk Of he five
billion dollars should be raised by tax.

dened with the immense task of Great

$3,4O0, 100000 war revenue expected
before July /, and that great confu-
sion would result from imposition of
new taxes before opportunity has
been given for the existing levies to
adjust themselves to the economic
situation.
Fares on Business
Taxation advocates are expected to
make fight for establishment of new
taxes on certain business lines, and
