FACES THREE
BILLION NEED
Higher Taxation or Another
Bond Issue Are Being
Considered BY Ways and
Means Board.
sY GEORGE Il. MANNlNe.

washington, May Silt is going
to be necessary to float another issue
of Victory Bonds for about three bill
lion dollars or increase the taxation
by that amount to meet the ordinary
expenses of the government for the
next fiscal year the leaders of the
house of representatives decided to-
day.
The probable revenues and ex-
penses of the government for the next
fiscal year were gone over carefully
today at a conference between the
leading republicans and democrats
of the ways and means committee,
which considers the means of raising
revenues and the appropriations Gem
mittee which provides for its expendi-
ture.
1t was found that the probable ex-
penses of the government for the next
fiscal year will be approximately nine
billion dollars, after allowing for re-
ductions that viii come when the va
rious federal departments get nearer
to peace time status
The present war revenue bill, after
the luxury taxes and several other
particularly obnoxious taxes have been
repealed will bring in about four bill
lion dollars, it was estimated.
The conferees estimated that import
duties. sales of public lands and in
terest on the loans made to the allies
will bring in about two billions more.
This will leave a deficit of about
three billion dollars and the house
leaders began today looking about to
see how if can be raised.
Treasury department officials are
TO be asked to come before the ways
and means committee and the appro-
priations committee to present to con-
gress their estimates of receipts and
expenditures for next year.
The repeal of the luxury tax which
n,its A levy of 10 per cent on soda
waters and ice cream, which If passed
viii take sci 900, 900 more from the
revenues.
Mr.. Kitchin, former minority lead
or and now ranking democratic mem
her of the ways and means committee.
agreed that the prospective revenues
for the next fiscal year viii fail to
meet the expenditures by three bill
lion dollars, and said it must be
raised by a bond issue or increased
taxation.
Chairman Fordney. of the ways and
means committee. reached the same
conclusion.
"The survey we have made Of the
nrobable receipts and expenses of the
government for the next fiscal year
nroyes conclusively that the republi-
cans in congress must cut the appro-
priation bill to actual necessities,
slicing all extravaganza" said Con-
gressman Moore. OF Pennsylvania, a
member of the ways and J'aAans com
mittee.
with this condition apparent the
people must let up for the present
in their demands for repeal of the
various war revenue taxes Further
more. they must prepare to meet still
heavier taxation unless enormous
economies in government can be eff
fected or the apparent deficit raised
through another Victory Loan"

A THEORY.

"All Israel are brethren So we
have been told time and again. The
dictum was uttered in the days when
the Jews were much more nearly
agreed in all the countries they sin
habited than they are now. Theoret-
ie,llly the sense of brotherhood still
continues without. abatement, but it is
Il theory which in some instances is
made to suffer Il large discount. When
ii comes to the assertion of the rcla-
tion between Riverside Drive on Up
per Fifth avenue son of Israel and
rhe faithful who hail from Yemen or
Bokllara, or even some points geo
graphically nearer the Statue of Lib
erty, the sentiment il apt to be more
hOnorcd in the breach than in the OBJ
servancc. ,As u matter of fact the
New York man is much more likely
to feel the sense Of brotherhood and
it's responsibilities. Rclisiously il"
may feel himself far apart from his
Eastern brethren. but the ties Of race
are apt to be strong within Him. and
these are kept alive by the knowledge
that after all is said and done, he and
the man from the Orient hold the
same fundamental beliefs. The East
crn party is usually the one who looks
ask,incc at his occidental brother be-
cause he does not follow the practices
considered sacred by all true belicv-
crs, and, Furthermore, because he is
apt tn be rich and. therefore. cNtlu-
sive. AS matter of fact the rich
man is quite as likely TO be more
brothcrly in sentiment and in action
tliun the stern and unbcnding man
from the East.
That at least is the way the facts
impress themselves upon the attention
of those who watch the course of
events and the trend of opinion. And
the men from Bokhara and Yemen are
not by any means the only Jews from
Eastern lands who adopt that attitude.
