TO PAY WAR BILL
WHILE WAR IS ON
Congress Behind Wilson
War Revenue First Year
$1,750,OO0,0O0.

Washington, April s.-Presdent
Wilson's policy, outlined in his address
to congress. of paying Americas war
bill, so far as possible. while the war is
being waged. leaving a minimum debt
to posterity. was reflected tonight In a
virtual decision by congressional lead
ersto raise so per cent of the first
years expenditures by taxation.
Under this program congress will
be called upon to raise war revenue to
the extent of $l750,00000O through
new and increased measures of taxa
tion during the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1918. This is exclusive of
the $1,000 900, 900 bond issue. authori-
zation for which will bc sought OF
congress this week The total demand
upon the financial resources of the
country during the first year of war
under this program would be $3.50,

Three Billion Loan.
OF the 5000, 900 900 to be raised by
a bond issue. $4,000. 900 900. it was def
nitely stated tonight, would be loaned
to the entente allies. The entire is
sue, house and senator leaders have
agreed. will bear interest of 3k per
cent. 1t is proposed to make the loan
! to the allies at this interest rate which
Is lower by far than the rate they
have been compelled to pay on their
previous issues.
After the entente governments have
been granted the loan, the plan is to
hold the remaining $1,000. 100000 to
be applied as necessary on the cost OF
the military and naval establishments
and other war expenses of the United
new war revenue measures in effect
the full amount, $1,000, 100000, woult
not be entirely exhausted at the enc
of the first year.
In requesting authorization for ;
$1,000. 100000 bond issue. admnistra
ton leaders have in mind the necessit,
of allowing for a slight margin o
safety SO that the work of the wa
and navy departments would not b.
handicapped by IL lack of funds due t
the possible failure of proposed ia,
measures to raise the entire sum of 5

No Loss of Time.
Indications are that the administra

Senate Ready.

The senate is expected tomorrow TO
begin clearing the way for the coming
war legislation. 1t will probably take
up the current army appropriation
bill as approved by the military COM
mltL"a and put it through at once, II
is the perlunetory supply bill which
failed IN the last congress, but carries
nearly $27o.0o0,O00. The military
academy appropriation bill, another
that failed at the last session is also
out of committee and the sundry civil
bill. the last of the failed quartet will
be ready early in the week. All have
been passed In the house. ae.-
Any one of these bills can be laid
aside for more pressing subjects since
the funds they carry would not be
needed to take care OF the routine of
the departments they cover until July
/. Legislation of other kinds is be-
fore committees of both houses includ-
ing the drastic espionage bill which
passed the senate last session, but did
not get through the house, amend
ments to the shipping law to give the
government broad powers over mer-
chant ships and amendments to the fed =
eral reserve act designed to strength
| on the system by inducing state banks
| to enter. Many of the bills carrying
these ideas will be ready for the floor

Bills and Shipping Law
Amendments Slated.

Washington, April 5. - Congress
meets tomorrow to begin its task Of
furnishing the executive branch of the
government with men and money to
fight the German war. Possibly its
first act will be the passage OF legis.
la;ion authorizing the issuance Of
bonds for billions of dollars, a pare Of
which will serve the basis for credit
to the entente allies.
bond issue resolution will be In.
troduccd in the house for the ways ana
means committee either tomorrow or
Tuesday. No great opposition Is looked
for even from pacifist members who
are expected now that war has been
declared not to interfere with its sue
ccsstul prosecution.
Similar legislation will not appear
in the senate because of the fact that
such measures cannot originate there
under the constitution.
Bond Issue Quickly. ..
A.SsS opposition Is expected In the
senate than In the house and unless
predictions tonight are far afield the
authorization for the bonds will 10
made Before the end Of the week. Any
attempts to filibuster could be met by
resort to the rules committee in the
house and the cloture rule the senate
adopted in February to expedite the
passage. Dilatory tactics could not be
effective for any considerable time.
The senate has put through an amend
inent to the general deficiency ap-
preparation bill giving the president
an emergency war fund of $100,000,00
and the house is expected to agree to
1t without delay.
The war department will have repre-
sentatives before the house military
committee tomorrow and probably be-
fore the senate committee in Il day or
two to explain details of it's plan for

Says Must Have Natural Drainage


A. Klockmann, president of the
Idaho Continental Mining company,
and the owner of some 1000 acres
of land near Porthill, passed through
the city today on his way to Klock-
mann from Spokane. Mr.. Kloclmann
is not pleased with the report Of
the government engineers on drain
age matters and states that from
his own experiments and from the
advices he has had from experienced
engineers who have made thorough
investigations in this district, that
it is not feasible TO prevent overflows
with bikes and bitches. Mr.. Klock-
mann believes that no reclamation
project for the Kootenai Valley may
be called feasible unless provision is
made for natural drainage and then
the property owners may proceed
with whatever individual diking or
ditching may be considered neces-
sary. He is of the opinion that the
enlarging of the outlet of Kootenai
lake will be a great factor toward
securing natural drainage and thinks
it highly improbable the that Can
adams will be able to divert the
Upper Kootenai river because of
damages which will ensue to land
on the Columbia river Bottoms.
