MAY Defer ACTION
ON EXTRA REVENUE

Members OF the House Ways and
Means Committee seemed to to have
reached no decision yesterday. regard
ing raising the $500. 900 900 additional
revenue asked for by Secretary of
the Treasury McAdoo. It seemed to
be the general sentiment that the
matter would be deferred until the
winter session, commencing in De-
Cembcr.
The estimates included in the s, ,OOO,-
0OO,OCO war budget were gone over
by Secretary Baker before the House
Appropriations Committee. Detailed
explanations were made. The COM
mittee will hear various bureau chiefs
from the War Department during this
week.
The Jones amendment" imposing
a 10 per cent tax on undivided sur
plus OF corporations will be ina
terially modified" said Senator Sim
mons. chairman OF the committee.
1t was agreed that much of the
new revenue would come from income
taxes on corporations. There will
be increases in individual income
taxes on amounts between 10000 and
$500. 900.
Still other new revenue will come
from taxes on liquors, wine and beer,
and there may be some increases in
consumption taxes, although these will
not be large.

PRESBYTERIANS ARE
READY TO SAVE FOOD
First Denomination to Organize
Fully for Work.

The Presbyterian Church, with its
two million members. is the first of
all the denominations to report that
II is fully organized to carry out ma
tion-wide food conservation among
its members. Through William H.
Foulks, secretary of the National
Service Commission OF the church, it
made this report of the Food Admin
istration yesterday. Mr.. Foulks came
on from Philadelphia to announce
that a committee on food conserva-
ton has been appointed to work in
conjunction with the Food Admins
tration and through State members,
who have been chosen in all the
States and in Alaska and Porto Rico.
This committee on food conserva-
tion has been named by the National
Service Commission OF the Presby-
terian Church, and is as follows: Rev
DR.. Charles Wood. OF Washington.
chairman; Former Justice Stanton ].
Peelle, Washington: Rev. DR.. William
Chalmers Covert, Chicago; George w.
Perkins, New York, and George A.
Cullen. New York.
The national service commission of
the Presbyterian Church has been
organized to raise funds and act for
the denomination in every way possible
IN promoting national and patriotic
projects during the war. The food
conservation committee of the Pres
byterian denomination will have every
state toured by speakers conversant
with the food situation and needs.
as they concern the American people
and soldiers. and the allies. These
men will help the churches to or
ganize themselves along the lines ad-
Vocated by the Food Administration.
and to maintain their efforts as long
as the need lasts.

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR.

Did it ever occur to you that
every movie actress you have seen
has lovely hair, while the most
popular count their curls as their
chief beauty? In fact, many are
leading ladies just because of their
attractive locks. Inquiry among
them discloses the fact that they
bring out all the natural beauty of
their hair by careful shampooing,
not with any soap or makeshift,
but with a simple mixture, by
putting a teaspoonfu1 of canthrox
(Which they get from the drug
gist) in cup of hot water and
applying this instead of soap. This
full cup of shampoo liquid is
enough so it is easy to apply it
to all the hair instead of just the
top of the head. After its use,
the hair dries rapidly with uniform
color. Dandruff, excess oil and
dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. The hair is so fluffy
that it looks much heavier than
it is, while its luster and softness
is delightful-Adv.
