-FOUR BILLION
DOLLARS REVENUE
Adopted by Finance Committee
Seven Republicans Oppose
the Majority Report
TEN DEMOCRATS FAVOR 1T

Washington, Nov. 26-By strict
party vote, the Senate Finance com
mittee last night decided to recon-
mend that the yield from the 1920
revenue bill be limited to $4,000
100000. Ten Democratic members,
who voted for the amount suggested
by Secretary McAdoo, were opposed
by the seven Republicans.
Before adopting the four billion
dollar limit the committee voted
down a proposal by Senator Gore, of
Oklahoma, Democrat, to leave the
$4,000, 100000 bill of 1919 un-
changed for 1920 and use the two
billion surplus for paying outstand
ing government obligations. The
vote was 9 to s, Senator Gore join
ing with the seven Republican men,
bers
Republicans object to fixing any
limit for taxation in 1920 because
they expect to control both the Sen
ate and House in thenext Congress.
Minority members of the Finance
committee said last night they
would take their fight to the floor
of the Senate and some Republican
leaders have said that the Demo
Gratis nsst upon this provision of the
revenue bill, enactment of the mea-
sure by the Congress may be block
ed.
The motion to fix the limit OF
1920 taxes at s4,OOO,OO0 900 was
made by Chairman Simmons. The
vote on the roll-call follows:
Ayes: Democrats, Simmons, Will
liams, Smith of Georgia, Thomas,
Robinson, Gore. Jones Of New Mex,
leo, Gerry, Lewis and Nugent.
Nays: Republicans, Penrose
Lodge. McCumber. Smoot, Dlling-
ham, LaFollette ard Townsend.
Work on the 1919 tax schedule IS
nearly completed, chairman Sim
mons announcing last night that the
bill now has been reduced to prac-
tically six billion dollars. Senator
Simmons amendment exempting
persons or partnerships engaged in
trade or business from the war ex-
cess profits tax, was adopted yester
day by the committee as was an
amendment providing that corpo-
ration with a net income of not
more than $4,000 a year shall not
be taxed more than 80 per cent. In
, the House bill the maximum levy
! was fixed at 35 per cent.

THE OPINION

That America Entered War to
Wipe Out Bitterness That
Causes War
THE BASIS FOR PEACE

Paris, Nov. 26.-The United
States government. 5 immense diplo-
matte success in obtaining from the
allied governments acceptance OF
President Wilson's points, with onl,
one reservation and addition, is be-
coming daily more apparent as the
preliminaries for the approaching
peace congress are being outlined
largely on the basis of the residents
points
Col. oHuse, the special represep-
tative of the United States Govern
ment when he arrived here, f0unG
little disposition mong Americas
and European friends to accept as d
totality the frame work of peace as
expressed by President Wilson.
Some European statesmen consider
ed that the points had worked as
good solvent upon Germany; that
they had served their great purpose
in their effect upon German unity,
| hut that they should not be observed
too closely when it came to formn
lating the practical details of ths
settlement
Allied statesmen plainly put for
! ward the view that, as the Ameri-
can traditional policy had been one
| of detachment from European az
fairs, it was natural for the Ameri-
can government when the war broke
out in Europe, to consider il quar-
rel among European nations and to
declare its neutrality.
1t was pointed out that for two
| years and half the American gov
| ernment observed its neutrality and
called the attention of both groups
| OF beGigerents 10 violations of sea
law. America entered into the war
both for that reason and because
America did have u community Of
ideals of government and of human
| rights with the allies. America, as
became a great country, was impell-
ed to put forth great efforts and she
did.
Allied statesmen have fully ap-
preciated the effect of AmericaL
arms in winning the decision. New
ertheless, it was contended by some.
this had been a controversy among
European nations and the winning
group, it was suggested that Amer
lea, having accomplished her aims,
would return to her detachment and
allow the countries intimately con-
cerned to arrange a settlement ae-
cording to the European viewpoint
of the situations.

AMERICA HAS
SAVED Us
Declares Cardinal Mercier.
Wilson's Just Messages
Fooled Germans
WON'T POSE AS MARTYRS

Brussels, Nov. a6.-Cardinal Me-,
cier and Burgomaster Max, two OF
the most prominent figures Of the
war in Belgium, excepting King AL
bert, received The Associated Press
correspondent. Both men are as
different phyhically and mentally as
the ideas, ideals end opinions they
represent of the Liberal Party.
"You have saved US, said tn.
Cardinal, when asked what ht
thought about Americas participa
tion in the war. you have saved
the world"
Cardinal Mercier is tall and dig
nifed. He was garbed in purple
soutane. He chatted with the cor
respondent for more than half ar
hour.
Il never despaired, never los
hope, although at times my heart
was very full" the Cardinal said
referring to an incident in Deceni

Press and have never ben able t

noy:
Yes, Bissing treated me as

Concerning the Governors of Bel
gium during the war Cardinal Mer
cier said that Falkenhausen wal
more cruel and inhuman than Bliss

There was not much to choose

Referring to his quite recent brit

Cardinal replied:

IMPRESSIVE
SERVICES
At White Oak Church in Honor
of Leslie Walston of
Saratoga
WHO FELL IN FRANCE

Yesterday afternoon IN the Pllnll-
tive Baptist church at White Oak
near Saratoga, this county, OF which
ais mother is a member, impressive
memorial exercises were held in
honor of brave Leslie Walston who
fell in France in defense of his couh.
try and human liberty.
The young man was the son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Hymrick Walston,
prominent people of the Saratoga
section and was wounded at the
same time and bY the same shell
that killed Dewey Adams and wound
ed James Anderson of this city.
Elder Frank Farmer presided
during the services and introduced
the speakers, and after fervent
prayer by Elder Z l.. Cobb also OF
this city the following delivered
short addresses in the order in
which they are named: Messrs. w.
A. Lucas, j. ID. Gold, f. ID. Swindell,
Rev. w. A. Stanbufy, pastor of the
Wilson Methodist church in this
city, and Rev. j. b. Massey, pastor
of the Presbyterian church here.
MIR. Lucas who delivered the prin-
cipal address, clothed his remarks
with patriotism aud praise for our
hero who lost his life in defence Of
his country and Human liberty. He
opened by saying that in his death
Leslie Walston had accomplished
more than the man who lives to the
| extreme old age of three score years
and ten. He has become part OF
the history of North Carolina and
the history of Saratoga, and has
placed the name of his family upon
The undying scroll OF fame.
M. Lucas stated tAat the Amerl-
can boys smile when they came -
uie. That QedLn Rad net teEfoIs IIi

were imDued with the highest sense
of duty. He said that he would re-

train lust before lie went to France
and he told him he was willing to
go. According to the casualty list
239, 900 American soldiers have CIV
en- their life blood to break the
shackles of mankind and | believe
that they were fighting for the Lord
Mr.. Lucas stated that he knew
! that he was speaking in the pres
ence of both ministers of the gospe
as well as laymen, but he must say
that he believed thatearth and heav-
en- were brought nearer together
when the armistice was signed and
the end of the war was announced
He called over the names of Cal
vim Capp,s Robert Anderson, Dewey
Adams, J. B. Farmer and others who
have been killed and wounded from
this county, and now, said he. we
have another brave son and hero to
add to that immortal list. Their
death, said he, is not in vain. 1t does
not matter so much whether a man
dies, for man is born to die, but the
question we need to ask is how he
died and for what did he die?
Mr. Lucas interestingly traced the
events of the war. and the causes
that led to the war. How that Am
erica came into the fight to save
civilization and the world from o
fate that ultimately would be far
worse that Germany accorded Bel

TELL YOUR WIFE CORNS LIFT OFF Doesn't hurt a bit to lift corns or calIuses off with
 fingers

Not a twinge of pain or soreness before applying. or afterwards. This may sound like a dream to corn pes tered men and women who have been cutting, filing and wearing torturous plasters. Yes! CornS lift out and cal1uses peel off as if by ma gic, says this Cincinnati authority.
 A quarter ounce of freezone costs but a. few cents at any drug store. Apply a few drops directly upon your tender corn or callus, and instantly the soreness disappears; then shortly the corn or caIluS will be so loose that 1t lifts off.
 F'reezone dries instantly. It doesn t eat out the corn or callus. but just shriveis it up so it lifts away without even irritating the surrounding skin. Women should keep it on the dresser and never let d corn or ca1lus ache twice.
