Washington, June S.-Preparing to
soak the profiteer, congress is gatner-
ing facts and figures to show that war
business can bear the greater proper
ton Of the new war tax burden.
Senator Borah was ready today TO
urge immediate passage of his resolu-

Dispose of Bills Quickly.
Quick disposal of number of mis-
cellaneous bills preparatory to the
taking up of the new war revenue
bill was expected today. 1t is planned
to start actual work on the revenue
measure Thursday with the beginning
of hearings by the house ways and

000,000 which was passed by the
house in record time last week. 1t
was planned to refer the bill to the
military committee with the expecta-

a number of bills, largely appropria-

Disclosure by the treasury of evil
dence of alleged profiteering, said
by President Wilson in his recent adj

sured later in the day when Secretary
McAdoo advised senate leaders that
he would not object to presenting the
treasury's records to congress if they
are properly called for.
