FACING DEFICIT OF
OVER A BILLION

No Chance for Relief at Present
Says McCumber
BANK CREDITS NEAR END
War Finance Relief Dubiouo--Relief
Only by Putting Up Imports to
Protect United States.

Washington, Dec. 11.--The business
world was warned in the Senate to-
day by leaders of both political par
ties that taxes both on incomes and
excess profits must be paid into the
Treasury on December Is, because Of
a prospective national deficit of near

former chairman, joined In announcing
that IN their judgment the financial in

been seeking postponment Of income

cess profits taxes because Of reduction
in inyentoried value of their products,
should understand clearly that Con

Their statements were made in de-

mated total of s65O.00O0 600 on Dacem-

An Appreciation

Editor Of the Banner. Among the
pleasant recollections of old St.
Peters church we seem to hear a
beautifully sweet eontralto vo.ce as
it sang our grand church TIE deum,
I'VE praise Thee, oh God, we acknow-
ledge Thee te be the Lord. All the
earth doth worship Thee the Father
everlasting To Thee all angels cry
aloud the heavens and all the powers
therein To Thee Cherubim and Ser
aphim continually do cry, Holy, Holy,
Holy, Lord God Of Sabbath" and so
on TO the end Of that grand anthem
halle wed by the Episcopal church for
many past ages
That voice that has thrilled thous-
ands Of hearts in many towns and
cites IS now silent It's possessor
has gone to join the choir trump
hant while there is one left who ever
had the good fortune to listen to that
matchless voice of our old friend
(Mame as she was Familiarity called
by her friends Of many years ago)
will be precious memory
She sleeps the old church yard
on the hill On a still day the tones
OF old ST Peters bell can be heard
as one stands by her last resting
pace. Down and on stretches the
beautiful valley Of the Wauoomsac.
Beyond rise the most beautiful range
of the Green Mountains Robin red
breast pcurs forth his old time song
and the song sparrow joins in notes
low and sweet near her tomb
Seasons come and 90 and the flow
ers bud, blossom and die yet always
leaving a premise Of another spr ng-
timc
May the sprngt,ne Of eternity find
her voice newly attuned TO join the
Halleuiahs of the redemmed in
heaven

Charge Made in Debate Over

Amendment Limiting Embargo Period
introduced by Congressman

Washington, Dec, 10.-Amendment
Of the Johnson bill to reduce the

tion legislation
Adoption by vote Of 81 to % OF
the amendment offered by Represen'
tatlye Mann, Repub.ican of Illinois, to
reduce the embargo period, was a sur.
prise to advocates of the legislation
and constituted the first victory for
Representative Siegel, Republican,
New York, and SABBATH, Democrat, H.,
leaders of the opposition. Proponents
Of the bill, however, were not dismay-
ed and said they were confident of
favorable disposition of the measure
before adjournment tomorrow.
The Mann amendment actually linn
its the restriction period to one year,
reducing by one-half the period
originally proposed. AS amended the
bill cannot be enforced for two
months after passage and can be ap-
piled only fourteen months from the
date of passage.
Another amendment offered by
Representative Mann exempting the
Philippine Islands from application
of the measure, was adopted by
viva voee vote. The Illinois member
in offering the amendment, said the
Philippines might soon obtain their
independence, and further legislation
by this government was not desirable.
Representative Mann, in an address
opposing the measure, said he was

former years
