SECOND ATTEMPT
/. TO MAKE AIR RAID
ON PARIS FAILS
Machines of Germans Not
Able to Reach Destination
on Saturday Night
Says Report

Paris, July 29.-The censor today
permits the publication of scanty de-
tails of an air raid made on Paris
Friday night. which the Associated
Press was not allowed to send yester-
day. and which the French newspapers
We're not permitted, to publish. Accord
ing to this information bombs we've
dropped on three different suburban
sections.
In the first the bombardment caused
absolutely no damage, in the other two
localities five or six bombs were
propped, causing slight injury to two
women. One of the women was struck
while in bed and was removed to
hospital; the other was injured by fly
ing glass. One bomb of several that
fell in field is believed to have con-
tanned asphyxiating gas.
Another raid on Paris Saturday
night was even more unsuccessful than
that on Friday, for the German avia-
tors were not able to reach Paris at
all Their coming was anticipated and
French protecting airplanes were cir
cling above and around Paris from
early evening.
The residents however, did not look
for a renewal of the fruitless attacks
of the previous night, and most of
them had retired when the sirens gave
the warning. Crowds rushed to the
streets, roofs and windows instead of
seeking shelter but they saw moth
ing. Less than an hour after the first
warning reassuring bugles announced
that the enemy aviators had been
turned back.
One German aviator passed over
hospital near the front, descending very
low, close enough to distinguish the Req
Cross painted on the roof. -Four bombs
were dropped, all reaching their mark.
One doctor, a chemist and a male nurse
were killed Immediately and second
doctor died soon after from injuries A
third doctor and an administration Off
Ger and several patients were seriously
injured.

BURDENS OF POOR

Those Able to Pay Must Pay
War Taxes Says Chair
man Kitchen of Com
mittee

Washington, July 29.-Tax burdens of
the poor must not be materially in
creased, declares Majority Leader Kitch-
in, chairman of the House ways and
means committee, in raising the addi-
tional s5,0o0,OOo,000 required to carry on
the war until July ], 1918.
Ability to pay should be the only
standard upon which the tax should be
assessed. Mr.. Kitchin will insist. and he
believes the taxes on necessaries already
contemplated place about as large a bur
den on the poor man as he can stand
The first and largest advances, he in
sists, should be made therefore in nor
NAL income and excess profits taxes.
WILL ASK DELAY
If the pending tax bill will provide suf-
ficient funds to meet expenses until
early next year, as administration lead
ers say, Mr.. Kitchin believes Congress
should not draft a new tax measure be-
fore next session. He will confer with
Secretary McAdoo. however before he
takes up the situation formally with his
committee.
This is war for democracy we in
sist and hence its expenses should be
met by a democratic tax" Mr.. Kitchin
said tonight. 1.-THE only possible way to
levy a democratic tax is to base it
strictly upon ability to pay

comes home with an empty sleeve to
feel that the Congress which sent him
away has not favored the profit taker
who stayed at home
Members Of the ways and means COM
mittee are undecided as to what portions
OF the required $500, 10000 should be
raised by taxation and by bonds. A
general feeling appears to prevail on both
sides or the capitol. however, that at
least s2,eOo000.0O0 should be raised by
taxation.
Democratic House leaders say they
realize that many businesses did not
make profits for several years prior to
the war and they are willing that these
industries shall be given time 10 ad-
just themselves before larged taxes are
levied. In this connection strong argu-
ments for delaying the framing Of a
new revenue bill are being advanced.
Comparison OF the normal income
and excess profits taxes proposed by
the House with those assessed in Eng
land is sufficient, Mr.. Kitchin declared
tonight, to prove that American rates
are not excessive.
Convinced that the changes made in
the revenue bill now before the Sem
ate finance committee are in the main
unjust to almost all except the wealthy,
democratic House leaders are prepaT-
ing a vigorous assault on the measure.
Meantime. however, the Senate COM
mittee will revise the measure along
the lines it has laid down. leaving diff
.ferences to be fought out in confer
ence. The committee will meet tomor-
row with view to increasing the bills
total to al least 81, 100000 and prob
ably somewhat nearer $4,000, 900, 900,
with any further bond authorization
omitted.
Chairman Simmons. of the finance
committee said tonight he hoped to re-
port the bill by Thursday or Friday.
Debate probably will go over until the
following Monday.
That an unusually large proportion
of war funds is being obtained from
taxes and a comparatively small pro-
portion from bonds was pointed out
tonight by Senator Simmons. who said
the disparity with Europeon financing
was remarkable Only about 10 per cent
OF British funds are being raised by
