REVENUE MEASURE
FACES LONG DELAY
CHAOTIC CONDITIONS IN
COLLECTION OF 1918 TAXES
UNAVOIDABLE.
ISSUE LONG TERM NOTES
Protracted Debate of Proposed Bill
Is Certain and Republicans Will
Oppose Provisions Recommended
BY Secretary McAdoo.

w NaSnlngtOn, Nov. ZV.-ChaOuc
conditions in the collection of taxes
next year now seem unavoidable, ac-
cording to treasury statement
which has been prepared, comment
ing on the delay of congress in en-
acting the pending revenue bill. The
statement, to be made public shortly,
will explain why the internal rcye-
nue. bureau now is pending with
plans to collect taxes under the old
law with its levies lar below those
proposed in the new measure.
The only way to avoid resorting
to collections under the old law, the
treasury now lGlicves, is for con-
gresS to rush the bill to completion
within two weeks. Most house and
senate leaders do not believe this
possible In fact, leaders of both
parties are said to share the opinion
with the treasury that the measure
even may not be enacted at this ses-
sion.
Previous Work Lost?
Consequently the situation ap-
pears that all the work Of congress
on revenue legislation during the
past six months may go for naught,
and that the present revenue Law
will be enforced for another year,
with possibly few additional levies.
In view of this, congressional lead
crs have discussed with treasury Of
iicials the advisabltly of trying to
rush through both houses a Joint
resolution imposing war profits
taxes according to the plan formu-
lated in the pending bill and adding
this to the old law to make up the
part of the deficit between the four
billions which the existing law prob
ably would raise and the six billions
which the treasury believes should
be raised by taxation in 1910. An
unjust feature of this program, con
gressional leaders think. would be
that the existing provisions for eX
cess profits taxes have worked rec
ognizcd hardship on many business
es and the imposition of added war
profits taxes would aggrivate the
situation.
Long Debate Expected.
The possibility OF having no new
comprehensive program OF revenue
legislation, and consequently Of rails
ing less than the six billions, sought
from this source before the end OF
the fiscal year, June 30, next, has
prompted the treasury to consider
plans for issuing a quantity of short
term notes. maturin~ in one year or
less, and paying these off from the
proceeds OF heavier taxes which |
would be necessary in 1920. This |
course would depend largely, how
ever, on the attitude of the next
on revenue legislation. The
ill, as framed by the finance COM
nittee, will be reported to the SEN
ltc next week by the finance COM
nittee. Protracted debate is as
,ured. The republicans are plan
hing to discuss it at length and op-
oose to the end the provisions rec
}mmended by Secretary McAdoo

MY COUNTRY, WHAT A FALL is
HERE

The German Kaiser had sixty cas-
ties and palaces and now he is living
in a rented house. He has more than
one hundred uniforms and dares not
now wear any of them; he had fifty
high sounding titles and now every
body calls him Bill Hohenzollern; he
still has those six precious sons, but
none near enough to comfort him; but
a short while ago seventy million Ger
man people treated him with respect
full and reverential awe; now the en-
tire world execrates him and many
there are, among them his own peo-
pie, who would hang him if they could
lay hands on his person.
Verify, | say unto you, the whirligig
of time has in few days wrought a
change in his condition.

BERIIN'S BOAST

Berlin's plea for softening the
terms of the armistce because of the
suffering those terms would entail is
hardly consistent with the unofficial
report of others who say all the large
industrial plants are already working
on peace products, and that there is
work on hand to emlpoy sixty thou
sand and that Germany has the money
to pay for food and every thing else
she will be compelled to buy from
abroad.

PEACE SPIRIT

The spirit of peace has not yet de-

warfare has ceased, it's true, but the
T. action is expressing itself in other
forms of strife; in revolution, social

dustrial trouble. The demonstration
the world is experiencing along these
lines are the actions of the radicals
and rabid element. Consequently the
sane element of civilization must com
hat this destructive spirit which
threatens peace days.

Are You a Food Hoarder9

7 CAN hear half a dozen people say
L at once-'Now. what has food
boarding to do with beautyr' Dear
lady. don't mean what you think I
want to know whether you are hoard
ing food-on your own anatomy Hun
drsds Of thousands Of men and wom-
en- are storing away one OF the most
precious OF foods-fat-on their own
bodies.
Placards meet the eye everywhere
Save wheat, meat, fats and sugar"
The fat person must be eating IN ex-
cess OF these-or he or she simply
wouldn't be fat It not only is uu-
beautiful and unhealthy to be fat; it's
unpatriotic, which is more 10 the
present point.
How many stout women have I
heard say. But I hardly eat a thing"
They think they don't eat a thing:
often they don't eat as much as their
appetites demand-the appetite hav-
ing become abnormal. or they wouldn't
be IN that stage OF freshness They
may not eat as much as their husband
who work a farm or a blacksmith
shop or who do some such hard man
ual labor-but they overeat at that.
They may not eat any more than their
thin neighbors. but that thin neigh
Dor VIII burn up IN nervous energy
and in a multitude OF quick motions
more food than they eat For, fat
women are seldom IN a hurry.
So first Of all Mrs. Stout Lady,
want you TO remember that II YOU
weigh more than you ought It's be-
cause you take IN. in the shape Of
food. more than you burn up in the
shape OF energy. As for that remark
about eating only as much as your
thin neighbor-you probably have this
to contend with-she eats foods that
do not produce much fat; you eat fat
making things. She perhaps does not
get as much nourishment from her
food as you do. Some people seem TO
assimilate food better than others.
To reduce. you needn't starve your
self, but you must eat somewhat less
in quantity and you certainly must
eat foods that won't go right into
flesh No pork for yours: nor spiced
ham nor crisp slices OF bacon: no
thick cream over your starchy pud-
dings; no butter spread labishly owes
bread. no chocolate creams: no baked
or mashed potatoes. rich with cream
and butter. nor thick gravies, nor
delicious cake Do you think I've
taken out all that makes eating en-
iojyable? I haven't. as the menus I
shall give here later on will show.
Anyway. the enjoyment OF a good
meal IS IN the brief time OF eating:
the enjoyment Of slim and youthful
figure. is life long.
