WASHINGTON, Jan. 2o.-Republican
aders in the House Of Representa-
YES to-day took two important steps
ward making good on their promise
the country to cut appropriations to
,e bone and to pare the estimates sub
itted by the Democratic executive
.anch Of the government by at last
200 100000. The Rivers and Harbors
>ill. long known as one OF the two
leading pork barrel" measures, with
which members Of the House seek to
gain votes back home, appeared on the
soor carrying q total of only $12,ooo,-
20. more than s3o,ooo,o00 below the
stimates submitted to Congress, cut
If about II per cent.
Before the bill had been debated an

lobby that the Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds had decided at
the instance of the Republican Steer
IS public building bill at this session.
lans made few weeks ago contem-
lated measure that was expected to
.rry about $70,000,000. Representative
angley, of Kentucky, chairman of the
,mmittee, announced there would be
% public building bill, and members Of
the Steering Committee beamed with
satisfaction over the prospect.
Some Can't Be Cut
"Not all the appropriation bills can
,e reduced below the estimates" said
representative Mondell, the Republi-
an floor leader, in discussing tn stu
alton. Take the Post Office appropria-
tion bill, which the House has just
passed. 1t carried little more than
was asked by the department., but it
was brought out on the floor that the
added returns from greater business
throughout the country will more than
Offset the increased appropriation.
another bill that cannot be re-
duced is the pension bill, but there are
some which can be reduced greatly.
For instance, the FortiAcations bill
might easily be cut rs per cent without
any injury to any fortihcation In the
country.
There is a general feeling in the
house." continued Mr.. Mondell, "that
appropriations must be cut and wc
hope to take at least 81 600, 900 900 from
the estimates and possibly more than

this amount. It may be possible to
Ieouce them TO IN even greater ex-
tent, possibly 20, or 80 per cent"
With two Of tho principal "pork

the steering committee Is still earnest
~ at work on other committee that
deal with appropriations In an on
deavor to get its billion. Both the
army and navy will need less than tho
estimetes. In the opinion ofleaders end
tho civil list Of the government will
be cut wherever possible.
Causes Little Surprise
Although tho Rivers and Harbors
bill that appeared on the Aoor to-day
caused more than little surprise il
was not the object Of any prolonged
or bitter attacks. Only $1,000, 900 Of
its total Is Tor existing projects with
IS, 100000 for the maintenance Of com. COM
new ones.
Only seventeen Of the eirhty-four
projects on which work has been
started are to be continued under the
terms Of tho bill. Consideration OF
the bill was not concluded to-day and
it may 90 over until Thursday because
tomorrow il Calendar Wednesday. .
but leaders feel confident that they
will be able to control moro than
enough votes to put 1t through despite
tho desire Of many members for an
other bit Of "pork."

SERIOUS TROUBLE
OVER INCOME TAX
Corporations May Be Forced
Into Bankruptcy Unless
Law Is Changed.

WASHINGTON, Nov is Copy
right 1920. - Should corporations
and manufacturing concerns who
haven't the money to pay their last
installment OF income taxes on Dec.
15 be allowed to postpone payment
until they have more cash on hand
OF should Uncle Sam insist that the
business houses which haven't saved
up enough money TO pay their teXes
suffer the consequences Of their mis-
take7
This question Is being put up TO
the Treasury Department because Of
abe fears OF certain textile concerns
that unless the Government helps
out by postponing the December pay
ment on income taxes there will be
bankruptcy proceedings in many
large business establishments.
But the Treasury Department has
no discretion in tho matter and
officials there say Congress alone can
authorize the postponement Of any
payment on income taxes. Inasmuch
as Congress meets on Monday, Dec.
6, a new law would have to be passed
Immediately because the present law
requires payment on Dec. 10 and pro-
vides penalties for failure to pay.

Income tax executives say they arc

not comparable to the attractive Of

Yet the Republicans, being pledged
to economy and the cutting down OF
Governmental expenditures, are not in
the mood to increase the Government

As a matter Of fact, Il isn't the fault
OF the Government that houses have
failed to accumulate a reserve where

JESUIT PRIEST
DEAD IN FRANCE

Boston. July 13-The Rev. George
M De Butler, noted Jesuit and for 16
years a professor at Boston College
and Boston College High school. died
suddenly Saturday in France, accord
ing to a cable received at Boston Col
lege Sunday from Amiens, France.
Father De Butler left Boston for
France nearly a year ago to help IN
the reconstruction work in his native
country.
Although no cause was stated for
his death. it is believed by friends of
the beloved priest that death was due
to a broken heart. 1t was with the
deepest spirit of self-sacrifice that
Father De Butler, at the conclusion
of the war volunteered his services for
work in France, the country which
nearly 20 years before had expelled
him, with other members of the
Jesuit order. There had been no COM
pulsion for his return, it was only a
final sacrifice in a life of sacrifices
His friends of that time were in
the United States. mostly in Boston
His relatives and friends in France
had been sacrificed in the great war.
He was returning to a devastated,
war-riddled country, land of strang-
ers, despite it's having been his birth
place.
Hosts of friends throughout New
England will mourn the death of
Father De Butler. The hundreds of
Boston College alumni, who learned
to love him as professor and
friend, besides the numerous friends
of the college, including many of
Boston's leading families and citizens,
will mourn him. as will the entire
populace of the little town of Carver,
where Father De Butler, in spare
moments from his teaching. erected a
beautiful church from a fund raised
mostly by his own initiative
Father De Butler was one of the
most brilliant men in the Jesuit or
der Practically all scholastic and
scientific studies were his field. He
was a linguist, a brilliant mathemati-
clan and an authority in the classics
He was born in France three score
years ago, a count in his own right.
He renounced the pomp, the power
and the wealth of his birthright to
don the black robe of the Jesuit.
Twenty years ago, when the Jesuits
were expelled from France. Father
De Butler was compelled to say fare

land he loved SO we'll He first went

SUBWAY TO BE
BUILT IN TOXIC

Toxic, July 13.-Tokio is to have
subway, the first in japan, charter
for which has just been granted. This
is part of a big plan for improve
ments in transportation facilities in
Toxic and Asaka which will involve
the expenditure of many millions of
dollars. The decision of the author1-
ties to undertake these improve
ments has followed bitter complaints
of poor service.
Owing to the increasing population
the street cars of Toxic are SO over
crowded that it is a common sight
to see passengers hanging danger
ously from the platforms, while pub
lie taxicabs are insufficient to meet
the demand. Toxic will spend $10.-
100000 in street, improvement.
A bigger project is under way for
improving Osaka which japanese
often call the Manchester OF Japan
because it is the chief center of the
countrys cotton industry. The pro-
posed improvement of the streeIs
alone will cost about SIS, 100000. A
new harbor is being built which will
cost about $30,00O,Oo0.
Fifty per cent of Osaka's manu-
featured products are moved through
the canals of the city and more will
be dug. Fifty million dollars will be
expended in constructing modern
sewage system.
Toxic and Osaka like New York

It is in the form: of a clipping from
one of the London weeklies
According to this article, Macken-
zie went to England in the early days
of the war as a corporal in the
Mounted Rifles Of Eastern Canada
While there he met Miss Helen Will
bur, with whom, he fell in love- After
his departure for the battlef1eIds of
France the two young people kept up
their correspondence and when later
he was sent to "Blighty'' badly
wounded, she visited him at Operton
hospital There she promised to
marry him if he recovered from his
wounds.
She, herself, however, died in De-
cenber of that year from illness ssu-
perinduced, it is said, by the strain of
her war relief activities. It was not
long afterwards that the father, and
only remaining member of the
family, Captain Wilbur, was fatally
wounded in action.
