rate of 32 per cent, I still believe the rate approved by the house to be the nearer to a just levy and the more promising one in returns to the pub lie treasury.
 "The responsible administration is anxious, first of all, to lay neces- sary taxes to meet demands of tl.e treasury. There is a moral obliga- ton, however. on the party in power to do everything possible to keep faith with promises made.
 we have been collecting the high est surtaX on incomes levied at this time in the world. The effect has been the restriction of the easy flow of capital in the channels most es- sential to our normal and very neces- sary activities. No one challenges the nevy of the higher tax in the stress of war. but now we are strug- gling for the readJustment of peace.
 Suggests Compromise
 ''Where there is so wide a differ ence in the judgment. of the two houses. I have thought it might be possible and wholly desirable to reach an equitable compromise, say a maximum surtax levy of 40 per cent. This would put the higher fed eral tax on income at AS per cent, which would measurably meet the expectations of those who are, above all else, concerned with the return of helpful investment of capital and the application of our capital resources to profitable productivity. I am wholly confident that the helpful re- suits spreading therefrom to every active participant in our industrial and economic life, from management to every wage earner. would be vastly more advantageous to our people than the maintenance of war time levies as peace time penalties on cap ital which are certain to hamper the restoration of our activities for which we all so much hope.

 Reach Agreement Saturday
 This vote settled the biggest issue between the house and senate on the tax revision bill, and the managers from the two houses will resume
 their sessions tomorrow with the hope of reaching an agreement on the bill by Saturday night.

The president then summoned Chairman Fordney and Representa- tive Longworth of Ohio, of the ways and means committee and expressed his views on the surtax These were supplemented by a letter to MT. Fordney.
 During the three hours debate in the house, which was conducted un- der a special rule. the president was attacked for writing MT. Fordney. Representative Frear, Republican of Wisconsin. said the presidents inter- vention ''at the last minute" was unfair and unjust"
 Representative Garner, Democrat of Texas, declared that if the presi- dent had views to submit he should have done so in person or in a mess age rather than in a letter. Repre- sentative ySinnott. Republican of Oregon, declared he grieved because the president had been given bad advice on this subject.
 Supporting the presidents stand k Representative Mondell and other Republican spokesmen said that the Republican party had promised to re- | duce taxes and that the 50 per cent rate should not be approved by the | house.

GAS IS TOO EASY
Anne. at Farley Fight
Against Chemical Abolition.
Declare Troops of Future Must
Garry Masks.
BRITISH BACK U. S. VIEW
Chemical Warfare Too Easy for
Amy Desperate Nation.
Willing for Restrictions, But
Against Ban.
BRITISH BACK U. S. VIEW

Washington. Dec. 23.-The place of
poison gas as a weapon of war is per-
manent, it was said today by Ameri-
can officials and experts.
Despite any ban which may be
placed on gas, there is nothing which
will absolutely prevent a recurrence of
its use in war, military experts de-
clared. To rely on such a ban as
protection would be to invite a tragedy
such as the second battle of Ypres
when the Canadian and French troops
in the line were deluged in Sas for the
first time in the war.
Need Masks Anyway.
Regardless of any ban on the use
of gas, one high official of the confer
ence pointed out troops will never in
the future be safe from disaster with
out the newest type of gas mask.
In taking this stand, American rep
resentatives openly express every de-
sire to see gas restricted and if pos
sible eliminated, but they hold that
this latter is a practical impossibility.
Accordingly, what American repre-
sentatives desire is to see the use of
gas in war hedged about so as to pro-
tect every noncombatant and town. but
to leave armies free to use it as
ian opinion. military experts as an
abstract proposition, regard gas as far
more humane than shell fire.
British Pack America.
The general attitude of American
officials is backed by Great Britain
and it is understood by the French
also. This is contrary to the repre-
sensations made by the Italian dele
cation, which placed American repre-
sentatives as standing alone for the
retention of this weapon.
The use of gas in war was forbidden
by The Hague convention, of which
Germany was a signer. it was pointed
out, and despite this general prohibi-
ton. every nation in the war finally
resortad to it. and at present the
chemical experts of many countries
are experimenting in efforts to deYelop
even more terrible forms of lethai
wa fare than was guessed at in the
last year.
