blood"
Not only because of the iron, dear
Colonel.
We are free men also, because our
forefathers had brains in their
heads.
And they also had loyalty to the
head of the nation in their hearts.
For instance, you remember thai
George Washington had many fail
ures, many disasters, many retreats
But there was one thing he did not
have, namely, an ex-president of the
United States calling him three
kinds of a traitor.
iron in the blood is one thing, al
though vague.
But decency, loyalty, respect for
the problems of the men at the ma
tons head, are also important

PARTY VOTE IS REGISTERED ON
 1920 TAXATION
Democrats Carry Measure Which Is Opposed by Re publicans; Final Vote Ex- pected on Monday
CBy Review Leased wIrel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-By a strict party vote, the senate late to- day adopted all provisions in the war revenue bill prescribing tax rates for 1920, which democrats advocated and republicans opposed, but failed to reach a final vote on the measure. Adjournment was taken until Mon day. when it's passage is expected.
 Disposition of the controverted 1920 tax provisions, designated to raise about four billion dollars, as compared with the six billion dollar estimate for 1919, precipitated long and spirited debate with numerous partisan clashes.
 Action was taken virtually on test vote. disposing of the provision reduc- ing the individual income normal tax rate to per cent in 1920. On mo- tion by Senator McCumber of North Dakota, republican, to strike out this section. 37 democrats voted to retain it and 31 republicans were recorded for its elimination.
 Later, all other 1920 provisions were adopted with perfunctory viva voce vote. Senator Penrose of Penn sylvania. senior republican member of the finance committee, offered mo- tions to strike out the sections. but these were bowled over by a chorus of democratic Nays"
 Among the 1920 clauses thus ap- proved, was the provision for reduc- tion in that year of the corporation normal income tax rate from 12 to $ per cent In similar manner the sen ate adopted the 1920 war excess prof. its tax section, prescribing excess prof. its ranging from 20 to 40 per cent. in lieu of those from 20 to 50 per cent for 1919 and abolishing the so per cent war profits levy after 1919. An amendment by Senator Jones of New Mexico, democrat. to continue war profit taxes in 1919. was voted down A to 15.
 Disposition of the 1920 tax question caused such protracted debate that Chairman Simmons abandoned plans for a night session and agreed to ad- iourn until Monday at 10 o'clock in an effort to expedite passage that day, with a night session if necessary. With this issue out of the way. sen ate leaders predicted that other pro visions. including the inheritance. lux ury and other sections. would be dis posed of speedily.
 In the partisan contest over fixing rates at this time for 1920. Senator Penrose. Townsend Of Michigan. Me Cumber of North Dakota. and Shoot of Utah, led the republican attack. while Chairman Simmons and Senator Smith of Georgia, defended the demo cratic policy. Charges by the repub- licans that in SO doing, political ad- vantage was sought with a view to avoiding an extra session of the next congress, in which republicans will have 8 majority. were met by asser- tions from the democrats that repub- licans desired to force an extra ses- sion

WILSON'S PLAN FOR HIS VISIT 10
 ENGLAND NAMED
May Cross Channel in Ameri- can Battleship; Correspond ents Will Go to Britain as Government Guests

PARIS. Dec. 21-The presidents first week in France finds the prelimi- nary situation surrounding the peace conference fairly well developed to- ward the point where, according to the presidents expressed view. it will be worth while for the United States to participate. The presidents con- ference with French and Italian statesmen have served to emphasize that he considers a treaty of peace not enough, but that the general agreement to be made among the na- tiOns must include a satisfactory set tlement of the question of the freedom of the seas and league of nations.
 The president now goes to England to continue the discussions there along the same lines as those he had with the representatives of France and Italy, which the presidents ad- Yisers describe as having been satis- factory.
 The definite announcement of Presi- dent Wilson's plans covering the per iod from Christmas eve to New Years eve, including Christmas dinner with the troops near Chaumont, the presi dents trip to England and meeting with Premier Lloyd George and his return to France on New Years, has served somewhat to clarify the pre- conference situation.
 Continental Europe makes much of the yuletide; so, in the absence oi | President Wilson and others closely ' ha mi and because of many holiday social | functions engaging the Americans, il | is not likely that there will be DO Iitical or peace developments of note | The week will be devoted principally | to perfecting the machinery of the i conference.
 The president will go to England, il
 is announced, probably by the Bou ! longe-F -Folkstone route. The desire is tC | have him cross on an American war ship, so that the landing in England will be distinctly American. Amer | ican naval vessels therefore will bC given charge of the channel crossing ! There are Is American destroyers al Brest, and some of these have been ordered to proceed to BOulogne.
 
 Crossing by a destroyer, however
 would depend on weather conditions i destroyers are bad sea boats and il the seas are rough. the president may take a British warship.
 The inclusion of a visit to Manches i ter makes an important change in the presidential program, as Manchester | is an industrial center There he
 would be brought into contact with i the labor classes.
 Saturday was largely a day of con ] ferences, the only public function be l ing the conferring of a doctors de gree by the University of Paris in the
 presence of notable assembly.

 morning and continued lengthily dis
