Dublin, Dec. 18th. Several blocks
of buildings in the heart of the bust
ness district of Cork were destroyed by
fire during the night, constituting the
costliest destruction of property since

of public buildings. on Albert Quay, in
Guiding the City Hall, the Carnegie
Library and a portion of the Corn Elk
change were also burned, as we'll as prl-
vate residences in various parts of the
city. Early estimates place the damage
at between e, 900 00and {, 1000, 0O0pounds.
The fire extended to st. Patrick Street
from Cook Street to Maylor Street, and
swept entire rows of buildings on both
sides of Winthrop Street leading from
St. Patrick Street to Old George Street.

licans were heard from several quar-
tiers and committee chairmen partic-
ularly were reported as feeling that
the move had been in the wrong di-
rection.
Inasmuch as most Of the legisra-
ton which will finally get through
at the present session is expected to
consist of appropriation measures,
committee members who for many
sessions have aided in formulating
these bills were said to see no op-
portunity to assist in this work.
Chairman Butler, of the Naval At
fairs Committee, declared that the
House action means that "thirty-
five men, the membership Of the en-
larged committee, can now run tine
House for this session and the rest
Of us can go home"
"The change" said Representa-
tive Butler" has simply made use
less about $50 men who have work

members of the House were prepar-
ing to voice their objection to the

that for a loan to Armenia to be
administered through American
commissioners to avoid further

PRESIDENT URGES ECONOMY
AND TAX REVISION

Both houses Of Congress were in
brief session to hear President Will
sons annual message. It was read
by the clerk, for Mr.. Wilson hav-
ing needed the advice Of his physi-
clan not to appear in person to pre-
sent his address.
Galleries in both Senate and the
House were crowded. Both those
drawn by the chance that the Pres
ident might appear in person or by
the possibility that his message
might touch upon the League of Ma
tons question or his own approach
ing retirement to private life were
disappointed.
Mr.. Wilson confined himself al
most wholly to domestic questions.
Only by inference did his message
refer to the nearing close Of his adj
ministration and that was in the
concluding paragraph. The propos-
ais he presented the President wrote,
were mot so much a series of re-
concentrations as a confession of
4 n faith in which I was bred and
which it is my solemn purpose to
stand by until my last fighting
day"
Aside from hearing the Presidents
message, Congress made out a def
mite program on at least one Of the
problems it faces during the brief
session. The House received rule
under which an effort will be made
today to take up the immigration
bill for prompt action. 1t would
limit general debate to four hours.
The two-day interval was allowed
to permit Representative Slegel, of
New York, a member Of the Immi-
grafton Committee, to frame a min
ority report.
No other matter in either House
was passed beyond the committee
stage. At both ends of the capitol,
however, members we're deep in plans
to deal with business depression, Gn-
employment and farmers relief.
Discussions in the Senate Of the
plight Of farmers delayed the read
ing Nof the Presidents message in
that body.
The industrial situation found a
place in the Presidents message. Re-
covery from war effects gave prom
Use of early completion "only in our
own Fortunate country" Mr.. Will
son said, and even here "halts ana
is impeded at times"
A program of immediately serv-
iceable acts of legislation to aid that
recovery "and prove the indestruct-
ible recuperatiye force Of a great
government of the people" should
be undertaken, Mr.. Wilson said, ad-

zone of these is to prove that a
great democracy can keep house as
successfully and in as business like
fashion as any other government"
The Presidents concrete recon-
mendations to Congress in his mes
sage we're:
Revision Of the tax laws with sim
plification Of the income and profit
taxes.
Independence for the Philippines.
A loan to Armenia.
Economy in government appropri-
atoms and expenditures and crea-
ton Of workable budget system"
Cold storage and other laws af-
fecting the cost Of living and fed
eral licensing of corporations as
recommended in previous messages.
Rehabilitation and training of dis
abled soldiers and sailors.
First among the recommended
steps Mr.. Wilson placed enactment
Of workable budget system" He
said he had vetoed the budget bill
passed at the last session, "reluct-
antly" and because of "constitu-
tional objection" but as it was later
revised in the House, he believed it
would, with other measures, furnish
foundations for a national budget
system"
Mr.. Wilson cited figures as to the
national debt and urged "rigid econ
omy" in which all branches Of the
government should cooperate.
1T cannot over Emphasize" he
said, "the necessity Of economy in
government appropriations and ex-
penditures and the avoidance by
Congress Of practices which take
money from the Treasury by indef-
mite or revolving fund appropria-
TONS"
This years estimates "strikingly"
illustrated the Importance of spe-
cific appropriations, the President
added, THE transportation act having
disturbed" the relationship between
current receipts and expenditures to
the extent Of over a billion dollars.
'Tt is obvious" the message con-
tinued, chat these large payments
have already seriously limited the
governments program in retiring the
floating debt"
The President renewed some Of
the recommendation he made at the
opening of the last session and ad-
ded:
IT do not feel it my privilege at
present to suggest the detailed and
particular methods by which these
objects may be attained, but 1 have
faith that the inquiries of your sew
eral committees will discover the

resolution would be considered in
the House before the end Of the next
week.
