See MHope of
Lifting Burden
y of War Taxes
Republicans in House Be.
lieve Strictest Economy
Must Be Practiced.

There is no hope for any consider
able relief from the burden of war
taxes for another year at least, in
the opinion OF Republican leaders in
the House.
Unless the strictest economy is
practiced. they assert. 1t may be two
years before any material reductions
can be made.
Present Indications are that the
deficit in the Treasury at the end
of the current fiscal year. June 30.
will range from s2.50o.o0o. 900 to S3.-
500,0O0,o0o. and the cost Of operating
the government for the next fiscal
year will approach $4,000. .00e. 900 -
four times the yearly expenditures
before the war.
Must "Cut Heart, Of Estfmutes.
In view OF this condition accord
ing to Representative James r.
Mann. of Illinois. former Republican
leader. Congress will have to "cu,
the heart OUT Of all the estimates OF
the executive departments to keep
the expenditures for the fiscal year
OF 1921 within the revenues. Mr.
Mann will fight for rigid adherence
to this policy from the moment the
new session begins next Monday.
To relieve the burden as much as
possible. however. the Republican
leaders are planning to revise tn.
internal revenue law. The purpose
of the revision will be to more equi-
tably distribute the taxes and dc
away with as many of the consump-
ton taxes as can safely be dis
carded.
In other words, it is proposed to
tighten the burden on those less able
to carry it and increase the levies on
those more able to bear a greater
share OF the cost of operating the
government. Work on the revised
revenue act is scheduled to begin
shortly after Congress is reconvened

II was expected that the Cabinet

Cabinet Continues Session
On Border Conditions;
Carranza Is Silent.
JURISDICTION PROVEN
New Mexican Constitution
Says Case Is Not Local;
Embassy Differs.

While the Cabinet yesterday dis
cussed all angles of the Mexican
situation and it was presumed at
the State Department that a Mexi-
can note was on its way to Wash
ington. William o. Jenkins. Ameri-
can Consular Agent, was still
prisoner in a Mexican peuitentiary.
according to all information at off,
cial quarters.
The Cabinet came to no decision
on Mexico. Another meeting il
scheduled today.
First Chief Carranza is trying to
build up his own political strength
in Mexico by using the Jenkins
case to infame the people against
the United States. according to
Senator Borah. OF Idano.
Seeks to Consolidate.
Il have not been able to follow
the Mexican situation very closely
because of the treaty. but it ap-
pears to me that Carranza is try
ing to strengthen his own position
in Mexico by a deliberate cam
paign against foreigners" he said.
He is apparently trying to unite
his own factions by his attitude
against the United States"
Meantime. it developed that Jen-
kins. who was captured by bandits
and held for sI5O.OOo ransom. then
arrested by the authorities of the
state of Puebla on a charge of con-
spiracy. is in reality illegally held.
The Mexican contention has been
that Jenkins case was a matter to
hs disposed of by tke@IocsT authori-
ties at Puebla- But the new Mexi-
can constitution has this to say
specifically on the matter of diplo-
matte and consular authorities:
May Change Attitude.
The federal tribunal shall have
Jurisdiction over all cases concern
ing diplomatic agents and consular
officers"
This section Of the Mexican law
may put the matter in a new light.
The attitude has been taken at the
Mexican Embassy here that the
federal government of Mexico was
