TO the ST. Joseph county men who
have served in the great war. at

CARDS as vital need in this city,

congress, declared 1t was necessary

tax laws.
Plans, which might have delayed
the work, but which involved a work
ing agreement between both parties,
having fallen through, the president
told the legislators there was no way
to meet the problem of financing the
war but to have congress remain In
session and go ahead at once.
The president called upon congress
to eliminate politics from the consid-

journed." The principal increases in
taxation, the president said, should be

II would be manifestly unfair, the
president said. to wait until 1919 be-

would be. The presidents address
was comparatively brief, taking less
