I'M ADOO REVIEWS
EFFORT TO GET
TAX ON INCOMES
Urges Increased Rate for In
come Taxes and Present
Standard for Excess Profits

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-Secretary
McAdoo Monday renewed negotiations
with the Ways and Means Committee
or the House in an effort to get the
committee to accept the Treasury De-
partment's recommendations on the
income tax and excess profits rates.
He conferred in the morning with
Chairman Kitchin, and in the after
noon with the Treasury experts who
nave worked over these features Of
the revenue bill.
Secretary McAdoo has not given up
hope that he will be able to convince
the committee that the excess profits
rates should be the same as those in
the present law. and that the normal
income tax rate should be II per cent,
with Is per cent taxed against I'M
earned incomes.
The committee wants to raise the
excess profits rates and put the in
come tax at 10 to u per cent
In the conference with Mr. Kitchin,
Secretary McAdoo pointed out reasons
why the income tax rate should be in
creased, and the increased profits
rates allowed to remain as they are.
lie showed by the tabulations Of the
fixed at so per cent, any increase in
the excess profits rates will impose an
undue burden on small business and
produce no more revenue than the
existing rate.
Secretary McAdoo hopes for the
same return on the excess-profits tax
as this year, with a big increase in
collections under the warprotits tax
AT the afternoon conference Secre-
tary McAdoo went over all the princi-
pal provisions of the House bill as fin
ally adopted by the committee. Others
present were Assistant Secretaries
Lefigweu, Adams and Love. II is
probable that Secretary McAdoo will
address another letter to Chairman
Kitchin. setting forth in detail the
Treasury Departments views on the
bill In general
The Secretary pointed out that of
the revenue bill is not enacted by
September 2S, the opening date Of the
fourth liberty loan, the loan may be
somewhat hampered because business
men will not know definitely what
their tax burdens are to be. For this
reason the establishment of a different
rate on income from private issued
securities is considered particularly
important.
The committee was in session until
late In the afternoon. MI Kitchin an
nounced that the time had been spent
In going over the text of the bill. He
said IL might be impossible to intro
duce the bill In the House before next
Monday. A number of the administra-
tive features OF the measure are yet
10 be agreed upon.

CRACKING Palm Nuts.

In Central America ten tons of palm
nuts an hour are cracked by machine
including a fast revolving drum-wheel
into which the nuts are fed from a hop
per. A force of 1900 pounds is re-
qulred to crack the half-inch shells, but
the drum-wheel. making 800 revolu-
lions per minute, skaters each one in
to several pieces by hurting it two feet
on tangent against the breaker blocks
continuously lining the inner surface of
the main drum shaped casting. The
wheel rotates on vertical spindle.
The blocks defect the fragments down
ward into a discharge pipe and air
from blowers separates the shells from
the useful portion of the nuts.

One of the interesting developments
OF the war, according to a statement
authorized by the War Department, is
the rapid expansion of the various bu-
reaus of the War Department. AT the
outbreak of the war there were less
than 5000 employees on duty The
number now is approximately 10000 an
increase of 500 per cent. While Chis
represents tremendous expansion, the
increase in the Army itself has been
more than 800 per cent.
Only out of every 100 officers in the
service were in the Army at the time
the war began.
The increase in personnel at the ad-
ministrative end of the war thus far has
not kept pace with the growth of the
Military Establishment,

After November 8, 1918, no further
rights of conversion will attach TO the

ever, will stil have the privilege Of

tible
Bonds for conversion may be surrenC-
cred at any Federal reserve bank or at
the Treasury Department. Registered

Proner Care Of Pet Fish.

Fish are not hard to raise. The
greatest danger to which they are
subjected In disease is the fungous
growth that attacks the fins and tail.
This can be detected by the dropping
off of bits of the fins and tail, and
by the tiny red streaks that mark the
part that remains. To treat, give the
fish a bath in a strong solution of salt
water letting him remain in this I'M
til he flops over on his side. Repeat in
the course of a day or two until the
growth is checked. For more severe
cases, q weak solution of permangan-
ate Of potassium is used. Allow the
fish to lie in this a minute or two,
then replace in fresh water.-Kansas

Rlnaest Block Of Jade Ever Found.

A bowlder Of jade, or nephrte, is on
exhibition in the foyer of the New York
Museum of Natural History. This IS
the largest block of jade ever found
1t weighs 4,710 pounds, is seven feet
long, two feet wide and one foot thick.
The Scientific American says 1t is
large enough to have furnished mate
rial for all the prehistoric objects Of
nephrite that have been found in Eu-
rope.
AS this huge block was dug from a
quarry In Germany there Is no need
TO suppose, as has been done, that pre-
historic man got his jade from China
or Burma.

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.

We have seen a picture by Harris
entitled, "No More Homer" We can't
forget it. For the first time the young
husband staggers into that rich home
intoxicated. And it is a rich home;
notice the draperies, the pictures, the
furnishings. The baby's crib, which
the young mother prays may become
its casket, rocks to sleep innocence.
A thousand things are worse than
death The husband wears a flash
ing diamond, but lacks the diamond
of character. See the roses drop
ping from the vase, whitening, dying.
See the roses dropping from the wife's
heart, whitening, dying. The closed
piano-music is dead. The light is
going out. "No More Home" God
help those who live in homeless houses
houses where husband gives black
looks and vile oaths; where a woman's
sarcastic and nagging tongue drives
man to drink quicker than snake
bite; where a lazy son gives abuse
and heartbreak instead of gratitude;
where shallow, thankless daughter
believes in her chief end and aim in
life to dress swell and marry a bank
account and an auto, as though hap
piness always travelled in touring
car! Deliver us from such a home!
Close it up quick! Put up the sign

stump of tree out in the woods with
an umbrella over your head and call
that home.
