2 Grand Rapids, Mich, March 10
The Jury charged with deciding the
innocence or guilt of Truman H.
Newberry and "a co-defendants on
trial here for eight weeks for al
legged violation of the election laws,
resumed its deliberations at
o'clock this morning. The case
was passed to the jurors late yes
terday, and an hour later they
were excused for the night by
Judge Clarence W. Sessions.
Owing to the large number of de-
fendants and various verdicts that
might be returned, there was much
speculation as to the amount of
time the jurors might require to
render their decision.
or the six counts in the indict-
ment-only two remained-the
first, charging criminal conspiracy
to procure the nomination and cleo
ton Of Newberry as United States
senator in violation Of state and
federal election laws, and the sixth
charging use of the mails to de.
i fraud.
In instructing the jury, Judge
Sessions said verdicts of guilty OF
not guilty on either or both of the
counts might be brought in as tc
all the defendants, but that a re.
turn on each of the defendants
would be necessary if the verdic,
differed as to individuals.

asked by the Hungarian delegation.
The Hungarians requested a con-
tinuation for three years Of the
trade relationship which existed
before the war so that the country
might get back on its feet, finan-
cially.
Hungary also insisted on a pleb-
iscite. under inter-allied control, in
the territories which were a part
of pre-war Hungary. This would
include Slovakia, now a part of the

The Hungarian peace treaty is a
sentence Of DEATH" Count Albert
Apponyi, head of the Hungarian
peace commission declares in the
first of two articles he has given

"The decision of the allies was
based on one-sided information and
Hungary never got a chance to
present the facts of her own prob
lens from her own point of view,"
he says.
Analyzing the treaty he declares
that it takes away from Hungary
two thirds of her territory and
population and gives to what is left
defenseless frontiers, everywhere
open to hostile invasion. She is
deprived, he says. of almost all her
woodland. pasture ground. iron ore
shale, oil. gas, water power and
the greater part of her manufacture

mines.

laid to a large extent "the burden

CONGRESS OUT
OF LUCK FROM
PARTISAN VIEW
G. O. p. Must Levy New
Taxes On Eve of Pres
idential Election.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial to The Argus.)

Washington, d. c., March 49,
Taxation may not be as intelligable
to the average man as the stories
OF extravagant expenditures during
the war, which has heaped up a
big debt, but the Republican ma
jority in congress is face to face
with the most troublesome turn of
luck that ever hit political party
in a campaign year. For the de-
cision of the supreme court of the
United States on stock dividends
has not only subtracted from the
revenue that had been expected,
but unless remedied by act of con-
gress hundreds of millions Of dol
lars will be lost and the eagerly
looked for day when taxes can be
reduced will have to be postponed.
The ways and means committee
knows it-Republicans as we'll as
Democrats. The long and highly
technical letter from Secretary
Houston OF the treasury department
elected by congress suggests sew
eral remedies none of which is par
ticularly palatable to the group OF
tax payers who would be affected
by amendments to the present law
Every suggestion, from a fiat tar
that would virtually compel bust
ness concerns to distribute theil
profits instead Of holding such
profits together as "undistributed, ;
or in the form of stock dividends,
to the novel idea Of a / per cent
tax on sales Of all kinds in every
day business has been made. Some
OF the proposals, backed by bust
ness organizations Of many kinds
are nebulous as to their applica.
tion. Some favor a l per cent tai
on every article sold, whether by
the wholesaler or the retailer OF
the middle man. This might mear
a l per cent tax all along the line
and it is defended on the grount
that even il collected four or five
times it would still be less of Z
burden on initiative than the pres
ent excess profits tax.
Must DO Something.
But congress is compelled to d,
something to recoup the loss b.
the stock dividend decision. Chair
man Fordney. Republican leader
openly promised action in reply t,
