In making his request, the president called attention to the con- dition of the treasury, saying that en- aetment of the legislation at this time would greatly imperil the financial liability of our country"
 After the president had finished. Chairman Penrose of the finance com n,ittee moved that the bill be recom- mitted to his committee, but Demo- fxatic opposition hared up and pre- 3ented a vote today. The motion was 11nder unlimited debate but vote to- srorrow was expected, altho some Democratic opponents said it might he delayed until Thursday.
 President Harding delivered his ad- rtss at o'clock before distinguished 2udience. Reiterating his recognition 0f the obligations to care for disabled and dependent war veterans, the presi- dent said general compensation" should be entered upon at a time when t would be considerably possible.
 "Overburdening of the treasury now means positive disaster in the years Immediately before us," the president declares.
 Altho the bonus bill was the presi- dents major subject, he also urged on tariff and tax legislation, for which the extra session was especially called. There was, he said, confessed disap- pointment that so little progress has been made on readjustment and reduc- ton of the war times taxes.p He also urged early passage of the bill to or- Ranize war risk and vocational train 1ng services aiding former service

Appraisal of Carnegie
Estate Held Erroneous
Counsel for State Tax Commits
sion Files Appeal From Ger
tain Findings

Lafayette B. Gleason, counsel for the
State Tax Comm ssion, filed in the Sur
rogates' Court yesterday an appeal
from some of the findings of the
transfer tax appraiser in the appraisal
of the estate of Andrew Carnegie.
Mr. Gleason contends that the ap
praiser was in error in not imposing a
TAX on two parcels of real estate--one
the Carnegie residence on Fifth Ave
nue., owned by Mr.. Carnegie and his
wife. by the entirety. The counsel OF
the Tax Commission also objects be-
cause the appraiser did not fix tax
on the pension funds which Mr.. Car
negie included in trust deeds made by
the steel master to the Home Trust
Company of Hoboken.
Another point on which Mr.. Gleason
takes exception is that the appraiser
failed to include within the property
passing to Mrs. Louise w Carnegie,
the widow, the income for one year
from property later passing to chari-
table corporations. Another alleged
error was the charging against the
property passing to Mrs. Carnegie of
sll the commissions and administration
expenses which, according to Mr.. Glea-
son, should have been deducted from
the gross estate.
