Sec. McAdoo Goes to White House to
Confer with Wilson and Will Make

Washington, May PA decision re
garaing revenue legislation by Congress
was postponed at noon to-day by Secre.
tary McAdoo, until later in the day
Although Mr.. McAdoo had promised to
advise congressional leaders of his final
decision by noon, he telephoned Senator
Simmons Of North Carolina, chairman of
the finance committee, that he would
have to study the treasury situation a
little longer
Majority Leader Kitchin, announcing
that Secretary McAdoo had promised to
give his final Judgment late this after
noon, added this statement:
There isn't going to be revenue bill
at this session, unless the president says
it is necessary, and the president has
told us that he did not think it was nee
essary"
After discussing the revenue question
with his advisers in the treasury depart
ment, Secretary McAdoo went to the
White House. 1t was understood at the
treasury that the secretary still felt that

Prince Art hur of Con-
naught, Cousin of George,
Headed the Party

An Atlantic Port, May 24-On mis-.
sion to the emperor OF Japan, Prince Ar
thur of Connaught, a cousin of King
George of England and son of the duke
of Connaught, former governor general Of
Canada, arrived here to-day on a British
cruiser. With those accompanying him
and attended by representatives of the
department of state, he left Immediately
on special train for Washington, where
he will call on President Wilson before
proceeding on his journey.
Prince Arthur and his party were TAX
en- off the cruiser at the quarantine sta
tion by a naval tug and transported to
the city, where motor cars conveyed them
TO the railroad station. On the tug he
was presented to the representatives of
the press and made brief statement.
Il am certainly glad of the opportu-
nifty to visit the United States" he said.
"The last time | was here was II years
ago, when / visited Buffalo. ] am espe-
cally glad to be here now, in view of the
fact that your country is fighting with
the allies and taking a magnificent part
in the great battle on the western front.
'One of the last thingsI did before
leaving England was to review. with the
king, some of your soldiers passing
through London, and / must say they

scope of the governments action practi-

known as putting the nation TO work, y

war goes on, or until 1t becomes neees.
sary to raise the draft age above 81.
Military authorities are of the opinion
now that it will not be necessary to
raise the draft age, and that the man
power of the nation is sufficient if those
now of draft age are fully utilized
The first effect of the new regulations
will be to drive idlers to work or into
the army. Moreover, it viii be the idler's
own responsibility to get useful job be-
fore July /. Then viii come the deter
of what constitutes useful EN-
ployments, and this, it is pointed out,
will come in for closer and closer deter
as the war goes on. An en-
ployment reasonably useful under pres
ent conditions might by the develop
ments of the war come to be considered
useless in comparison with the greater
needs of the war.

STREET CAR SKIDDED AUTO.
Though Latter Vehicle Travelled lis Feet
Sidewise 1t Did Not 0verturn.

Transportation service on Washing on
street was temporarily impaired last
evening when the bonneville trolley ara
a less common carrier, j. j. Dashner's 5
Ford touring car, figured in an accident
that nearly demolished the automobile
and shelyed the street car for a time.
That Mr. Dashner, who was crossing he
track in his Ford when the trolley ear
came pounding down the street escaped
injury may be regarded as something
akin to miracle. 1t was about the only
redeeming feature of the accident.
The real estate man had turned out ef
Charles street and was swinging down
the road preparatory to bringing up IN
front of Cameron's store for gasoline.
He never got that far, for the trolley was
hitting a fast clip and when the auto
driver failed TO hear the changing of I'll
bell. 1t was too late to reverse the brakes
effectively. The trolley car caught the
Ford a few yards west of the Hunting
ton avenue intersection, hitting it in the
midriff and pushing it down the street
distance. Mr.. Dashner chung
to the steering wheel, momentarily ak
pecting that the machine would turn tur-
tie. But for some reason il stayed right
side up until Motorman Louis Provost
could work the brakes successfully. Mr.,
Dashner suffered not so much as a bruise,
but two wheels of the auto were dam
aged beyond repair, the running board
was jammed, and the body dented in
several places. Something about the front
md of the trolley ear failed to weather
he drive and the car had to be taken
o the car barn. Conductor Wallace
smith was the other operator on the car
