is invariably IN the line Of duty A

ANALYZES NOTE
OF PRESIDENT
Monumental Accomplish
ments' Revived by Demo
cratic Senator.
By >RICHARD LINrHrCUM.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-The May.
mower brought President Harding home
from his latest vacation Just IN time fol-
the reassembling Of Congress, which Is
again in session, the House. metarhori.
cally, with its feet on the desk. taking
three days adJournments while waiting
for the Senate to determine in what
order it will take up legislation which
includes tax revision, tariff and prac-
tlcally everything for which It was
called into special session.
Senator Pat Harrison dem. Miss
took occasion on the opening day to
analyze President Hardings letter to
Senator Mccormick, making claims of
monumental accomplishments" for his
administration. His analysis Of the
monumental accomplishments devel-
oped the following telling points:
That while the Democrats considered
politics adjourned to give the Admins
tra1on a chance to enact relief measures
for the country, the President had writ
ten a political letter magnifying his So
called accomplishment" to be used for
partisan purposes in the election of a
United States Senator.
That a little while after tho President
expressed the hope that both, the tariff
and tax bills will be passed at this ex-
traordinary session, the Postmaster Gen
eral was telling the country that con-
dItions are in such a turmoil that in all
proba oility no tariff revision legislation
VIII be further attempted until next
year.
That the amendments incorporated in
the so-called packers control bill, bill
claimed as one Of the monumental ac-
comphshments," were in the handwriting
of the attorney for the packers.
That the bill regulating the grain ex-
change, another monumental accom- olish-
ment," contained practically every recon-
mendation made by the grain exchanges.
That Senator Watson, who it IS thought
viii succeed Senator Lodge as Repub-
Hcan leader, member OF tho Finance
Committee Of the Senate. had written a
letter pleading for funds for the Re
publican national committee, with which
to combat Democratic publicity.
That for the fiscal year 1861 Demo
cratic Administration expended only 81
114.O00, 900
That for the current year n Republican
Administration is eIpending s. 600. 600 600,
which, when the interest on the war debt
is deducted, is s., 500, 100000 more than
In 1916.
That the appropriation for the employ
ment bureau in the Department Of La
Dor, which asked for 81 10000. was cut
down to $4,000, the only actual en-
treuchment so far.
That the courts for generations to

propriated for the Navy, only S137, 600, 600

and 100000 for construction Of the
1915 program. Where the remainder Of
the money goes they say will be sub
1ect to the most rigid examination by
the House Appropriations Committee. In
formation will be sought on why $1,000
civilian employees must be maintained on
the Navy pay roll.
Like the father whose son, after rolling
IN the lap Of luxury all his days, was
unable to live a simple life until the
paternal judgment cut off the money at
the source, so Congress is preparing TO
handle the Navy Department. 10 some
members there are evidences Of alleged
extravagances which they propose to
see stopped. They believe greater savings
could be effected in construction WORK
and munitions.
The fight on the Navai budget
promises to be the center Of the battle
for economy. In view of the coming
conference particularly, rne hopes Of
leaders for a big saving in this direction
will be released in legislation under any
circurn stances that will permit.-Copy-
right, 1921, by Public Ledger Company

come will have to consider and to work
upon the intricate proposition of whether
or not by striking from the Versailles
Treaty the League of Nations covenant
there has not been eliminated with it all
the mandatory rights that the United
States has in that treaty"
That the legislation which has been
passed would have been improved If the
suggestions made and amendments Of
fered by Democrats had BEEN accepted
and adopted.
Senator Harrison, commenting upon
Senator Shoots reported statement that
the Government win expend $4,000, DOC, OOC
a year, drew from Senator smoot the
statement that if the savings that are
promised US by the departments are
made I shall be very well satisfied this
year, The only thing 1 fear is that they
cannot be made
The Mississippi Senator's adventure IN
the elephants compound was both d.
verting and instructive.
Another evidence that the Democrats
are trying to be helpful by suggesting
and shaping constructive legislation IS
shown in an amendment to the revenue
bill, and joint recommendation Of SEN
ator Gerry (Dem., Il. ~ and Senator
Walsh dem, Nass.) reducing the tax Of
per cent upon net incomes under 81, 900
and per cent upon all above to per
cent upon Incomes under 5000. 4 per
cent on incomes between $1,000 and
$4,000 and 6 per cent upon incomes be-
tween $4,000 and 5000
Another amendment by Senator Walsh
seeks to change the uniform tax Of Is
per cent upon the net incomes of cor
porations as agreed upon by the Senate
Finance Committee by providing a grad
uate tax applied to the net income Of
corporations, beginning with q 10 per
cent tax upon a net income Of 500 900
Is per cent between 500 600 and $500, 600
and 20 per cent in excess Of $500, 900
For the loss in revenues estimated at
SlO5.000000 Oh Individual incomes as pro-
vided for by the amendment, It Is pro-
posed as an Illustration to put a l cent
per gallon tax upon gasoline. collected
at the source, which is estimated to
produce from 500, 900 600 to 5000 600. 600
1t is also proposed to restore the tax
on corporation capital stock which pro-
duces a revenue Of $50 900. 900, the ma
jority having stricken that provision from
the bill.
These amendments Il adopted would
reduce the income tax bills Of over
100000 individual taxpayers and I95. 600
corporations.
The adoption Of these amendments
would prevent the proposed shift Of the
higher surtaxes to the backs Of the
people.
All unprecedented persons regard taxa
ton IS an economic subject and one in
which no partisan politics should enter.
The Republicans. so far. have mads the
tax bin not only a party but a partisan
matter, but they have pretended to be
favorable to constructive suggestions.

House Tries to Force
Cut in Navy Expenses

hopes grown into determination that the
expenditures for the naval establishment
shall be reduced to around $500, OOO, 900 al
the most When Congress appropriated
about SALT, 100000 for the naval estab-
lishment during the present fiscal year
they believed the last great naval appro-
priatl0n bill had passed.
Mr.. DENLY is represented as reason
ing" with his bureau chiefs to cut down
expenditures. Unless his reasoning" re-
suits In definite action. there is in pros
pect a reduction Of what Is understood
to be present estimates by around % per
cent. The President, furthermore. is IN
derstood to be in sympathy with such
action.
The situation has not been improved, In
the minds of leading advocates of econ
omy, as they see indications that a de-
fciency appropriation may be asked by
the Navy Department to meet expenses
