attempted Co reduce their apparent pOdts by paying themselves large salaries for the same kind of services which corporation officials perform.
 A soon as the door is open, the special interest lobbies representing automobile manufacturers, patent medicines, and the hundred and one articles specifically taxed by the bill, will get busy. 1t will require the most adroit and careful handling of the sit uation by the administration leaders to avoid reopening the bill for discus sion and revision-which everyone agrees would be disastrous in .he eX- reme, because of it's unsettJing effect on governement finance and the com mercial life of the nation.
 For this reason the administration leaders, Kitchin and Simmons, are eX- pected to fight any proposal for reyi- sion, no matter what the injustices may be.

CONGRESS TO MAKE A FIGHT
 ON THE TAXES

WASHINGTON, Nov. %. -One of the first acts of Congress will be to revise the revenue bill-such, at least is the view of politicians and students of tax questions here.
 The object will be to remove a number of inequalities written into the bill by the conference committee, and passed without discussion in the sessions closing rush
 To be effective, the revision will have to be accomplished before Jan uary 1, when the sections in dispute become effective This means that the fight will have to start as soon as Congress assemblies.
 The attack will center on the pro- vision of the bill which subjects to a tax of eight per cent the earnings over $GOOO of professional men and others who happen to make their Iiv- ing without capital or with any nom mal capital, with the single notewor- thy exception of Congressmen and other government employees who are specially exempted.
 The attack will be directed against two points; first, that this special tax is unjust in that it falls only on pco- pie who work for their living, and not on the idle rich, whose incomes from interest, rents and other kinds of Uu- earned income escape this special levy the highest flat rate of taxation con- taincd in the bin second that the eX- emption of the earnings of Congress- men and other government officials is arbitrary and indcfepSiblc.
 The last point is the entering wedge which is counted on to force Con- grcss to reopen the entire question. Every representative and a great many of the senators will be up for reelection next fall, and each knows his opponent could have no more ct- fective line of attack than to point out that he voted for an inequitab'c and arbitrary tax on people who earn their living, and then voted to exempt himself from the operation Of that tax. These candidates for re-elect- ions also know that this eight per cent tax on earnings falls on the most influential men in their districts lawyers. doctors and other profession al men.
 After the question is reopentd there will also be am attempt to modify the excess profits tax in those features which make it bear more heavily on partnerships and individual business cs than upon corporations. This arises partly from the fact that while cor porations can pay their officials large salaries, partnerships and individual business men would be held guilty of attempting to evade the law if they

VALUABLE LETTER OF
MARTIN LUTHER FOUND

STOCKHOLM, Sweden = An i'm.
portant addition to Lutheriana has
been made by the discovery in the
royal archives of a letter written
by Martin Luther, the reformer, on
the day on which he n allied his i'm.
mortal theses on the church-door in
Wittenberg. The letter is of particu-
lar interest from the fact that it was
directed to Archbishop Albrecht of
Mayence, who was Luther's imme-
date superior. 1t contains, like the
famous theses, strong protest
against trifficking in spiritual in
dulgences.
The letter appears first to have
been found in a German city by a
Swedish official, who brought it to
Sweden some time in the seven
teenth century. A very old copy
exists In Germany, but the very ex-
istence of the original appears to
have been forgotten and its absence
long, ago caused the Germany copy to
be considered a forgery.
A copy of the Wittenberg theses,
signed by Luther's own hand, was
found with the letter, and probably
accompanied it originally.

Things are to move rapidly in the
work of the Federal Food Admins

out by U. S. Administrator Braxton
Beacham Of the Florida Division, who
has notified all wholesale and retail
grocers ofnthe state, and also all the

cient time for all parties to attend and
return home before the real Christ

ed in his letters to the dealers and
hotel men that it win be greatly to
their interest to be at this meeting,
as here will be some important things
brought out that will have a bearing
on the future business of all.
The food Administrator of Florida
is about to put into effect some new
rulings, and these are not to be un-
dertaken without consolidating the
grocery and hotel men who will be
first and largely interested, and more
in need Of knowing what is to be done.
While there is nothing in Mr..
Beacham's notice of the meeting that
gives a hint as to what is proposed,
he states that there need be no alarm
among the dealers and hotel men for
the policy of the Food Administration
to ask cooperation will be observed
until such policy may prove ineffec-
tive and void Of desired results.
There is one thing however that the
people of Florida can be assured of
according to information given from
