expressed hope that the bill at least
might be reported to the Senate and It's
consideration begun before Congress
takes a vacation.
Settlements with the railroads, II was
said to-day. were continuing at the rate
of $4,000. 600 or $50 0000, 600 a month. but
they could not be continued indefinitely
without Congressional action to enable
the payments to be met
House leaders are praising the Presi-
dent for the manner in which he prompt
ly led them out of the tax puzzle, a prob
lem that has caused much serious concern
since Secretary Mellon last week warned
that at the present rate of expenditures
additional taxes OF 1896, ,000, 900 would
be necessary. The conference thus re-
suited In a net saving of more than
SS00.0000 900. taking into consideration
all readjustments proposed. The Presi-
dent promised the House leaders COM
plete cooperation in the reduction of
Government spending and indicated that
orders would go to Budget Director
Dawes to put into effect the cuts agreed
on to-day. The conference to-day was
requested by House leaders who were
seeking Executive leadership.
Summed up, the financial situation for
the current year will be this: Govern
ment expenditures will be about $4,000
000.0 The revenue bill will raise
| $3.075. .000.0 900; the yield from customs
will be s370. 1000, 900 If the Fordney tariff
bill goes into effect by January /, 1922 !;
concerted drive to recover back taxes
will bring S335,000.000 II was estimated !;
salvage of war materials will yield
| $500, 900. 900. and another $131, 900, 900
can be obtained from repayments to the
Government of various kinds, and from
miscellaneous sources. This makes a
grand total of SAIL. 900 900 for Gov
ernment receipts.
The programme to reduce expenditures
agreed to as summarized by the Presi-
dent and Secretary Mellon and approved
by the conference may be summarized as
follows:
War Department, s5o.oo0,0o0. Navy
Department 100000, 900; Shipping
Board, 100000, 900; Agricultural De-
partment, s25. 900, 600; Railroad Admin
istration, s50,00o,0 900; general. s25,, ,000.-
900.
This makes a total of $3.50. 600. 600 in the
executive departments. which Is in addi-
ton to s112. .0o0, 600 previously saved by
Budget Director Dawes. The savings in
the army. navy, Shipping Board and
Railroad Administration are mainly on
! claims. which. II is estimated cannot be
adjudicated during the present fiscal
year. In addition 1t was decided to pre-
vent direct expenditure from the
| Treasury to redeem 500. 10000 In war

and certainty of performance Is the
one and only consideration.
This preference of men and women
who would gladly pay more if they
could acquire more than the Cadillac
gives them, has constituted it the only
high grade car in the world which has
ever attained a similarly large market.
The Cadillac has attracted to itself the
discriminating and the well-to-do, in
every community; and the total, as we
have said, outnumbers, by almost one
third, the combined sales of all cars
at or above the Cadillac price.
The fact itself furnishes the reason for
the fact--a worldwide conviction that
no other manufacturing organization
has yet succeeded i'm producing a car
at any price which yields the same
splendid return day after day, and
year after year, as does the Cadillac.

Volume of Preference for the Cadillac
Proof Positive OF It's Greater Value !

The Cadillac outsells, by volume
nearly One-third greater, all other cars
at or above Its own price.
This advertisement might wen stop
short with this statement Of fact, for
1t contains within itself final and over
whelmine evidence of greater Cadillac
value.
Sales are not especially significant
when price is the chief incentive-but
when quality is the test, as in the case
of the Cadillac, volume of preference is
valid and positive proof of superiority.
1t IS proof of superiority because those
who buy the Cadillac are seeking, first
and foremost, the very best car they
can acquire, regardless of price.

Sim Fein Candidates
Reelected in South
Ireland Elections

Dublin, May 14.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press .)-Southern Ireland rs
again registered its complete al
legiance to the Dali Eiraenn in the
nominations for the outhern parlia-
ment, carried out today. The parlia-
ment is now virtually constituted.
Except for four imperialist candi-
dates who were returned unopposed
for Dublin, not a single opponent
has been nominated against the Sim
Fein candidates, who therefore will
be returned unopposed in the south
ern constituencies. These Sim
Feiners will refuse the oath of al
legiance to the crown and therefore
the new parliament will never func-
ton.
Thus it will devolvc upon the
viceroy to nominate an executive on
the lines of crown colony administra-
ton unless the government should
decide to recognize all the members
elected in the north and south as
constituent assembly.

Political Crisis Is

Buenos Aires, May 14.4The long
political conflict between President
a. Irigoyen and Governor Crotto of
Buenos Aires province is rapidly ap-
preaching a crisis which it is gen.
orally believed may result in serious
consequences. The Argentine con-
stitution empowers the national gov
ernment under certain conditions,
to intervene in provincial govern
ments and to replace governors witt
ad intrim appointees named by the
president.
The national government has re-
solved to exercise this power in
Buenos Aires province. The provin-
cial police are being concentrated in
the provincial capital and the gov
ernor's friends say they will resist in
tervention. Such action is expected
to result in clash between national
and provincial troops.

Heiress of 100000 in
Fight to Aid Relatives

Columbus, Neb., May 14.-(Spe-
cial. l.)-Miss Laura Backes, IS, who
inherited an estate valued at near
ly 100000, following the death of
her father, Henry Backes, two years
ago, filed objections in county court
to the admission to probate of the
will left by her grandfather, the
late Peter Backes of Lindsay, Neb.
In his will her grandfather be-
queathed her $l00, and a like sum
to each of her two cousins and aunt.
1t is said that Miss Backes' motive
in contesting the will is not selfish
one, but indicates that it is rather an
effort to obtain for her two cousins
and aunt larger shares of the estate
which is valued at between $4,000
and 100000.
