Washington, April 25.-Disarma-
ment sidetracked consideration Of
the naval appropriation bill in the
house today, when Representative
Kelly, Republican, Michigan, brought
forward the committee proposals to
provide $396,00O,O0O for the navy's
next fiscal year, of which 100000, 600
would be used toward completion of
the 1916 building program. The ex-
panSlon program, Mr.. Kelly asserted,
would help "to lift the load now on
the shoulders of the world for arma-
ment construction and maintenance. ;"
when these ships we are building
have been completed" he said, "the
United States will equal in sea power
any nation in the world, and will be
in a position to offer proportionate
reduction in armament"
Theodore Burton, Republican,, of
ONO, former senator, supported the
committee spokesman in his declara-
tion for an adequate navy and also
urged that there be the nucleus of a
large army for the United States. He
declared, however, that the "time has
come for an international conference
for the sake Of stopping this mad
denlng competition for the construc-
tion of armadas."
This view was indorsed by Repre-
sentative Byrnes, Democrat, South
Carolina, who turning to taxation
features involved in military pro-
grams, said congress this year would
appropriate five and half billions,
or $50 a head for each citizen of
the United States

CHEtADAtS GOOD FOR
KILLING aOF WEEDS
Common Salt, Mineral Oils, and Sod
ium Afsenite Are Comparatively
inexpensive and Effective if Used
Pr0perlyApply Them! in Cloudy,
Humid Weather for Best Results.

Killing weeds is usually attended
by the necessity of preserving grass
or other vegetation, and consequently
involves considerable work Some
times, however, it is desirable to keep
an area clear of all vegetable life, as
in the case of driveways, pavements,
sidewalks, tennis courts, railroad
rights -of-way, bitches, etc. In such
cases a good chemical weed killer,
properly used, will perform the work
more quickly and easily and often
more cheaply
The United States Department of
Agriculture has tested large num-
Der of chemicals for the purpose, but
most of them are either ineffective or
t93 expensive; but three substances
,caSe been found generally satisfac-
tory. They are sodium arsenite, oil,
and common salt. Sodium arsenite
is the most powerful plant poison
known that is cheap and readily pre-
pared, and is the active constituent
of practically all proprietary "wood
killers" 1t is rather difficult to OBJ
tain ready made, and should be used
while fresh, as it oxidizes readily and
hardens when exposed to the air for
several weeks.
Preparing Sodium Arsenite
For persons having some experience,
in the handling Of chemicals sodium
arsenite can readily be made at home
according to one Of the following for
mulaS:
Formula
Caustice soda sodium hydroxide)
pounds - ---- -- 2
Or high-grade concentrated lye-
White arsenic (arsenic trioxide)-
Water, to make, gallon ---- 1
granulated form and of the grade
known as 9b per cent, technical. This
quality of caustic soda is sold in
drums containing 5 pounds or more
and can often be obtained from deal
ers in laundry supplies. For small
operations the pure caustc soda,
which comes in the form of sticks is
convenient. White arsenic is fine,
white powder which is easily obtain
able. Mix the caustic soda or lye
with the white arsenic in wooden,
earthenWarc, or graniteware recep-
tacle. Add the water slowly. In
about 80 seconds the solution will be-
gin to boil violently and should be
stirred vigorously with wooden pad
die. The heat. generated is usually
sufficient to cause all the arsenic to
dissolve and the mixture to become a
gray, sirupy liquid. In case some of
the arsenic remains in suspension, how
ever, it will be necessary to heat the
solution until the arsenic disappears.
After cooling thoroughly add enough
water to replace evaporation.
Formula 2
Washing soda (sodium carbonate
or sal soda) pounds ---- --- 8
Or soda ash (anhydrous sodium car
bonate) pounds --- = - - q
White arsenic (arsenic trioxide) do
Water, to make, gallon ---- /
This mixture does not generate
heat upon adding water, and must be
boiled to bring the arsenic into solu-l
ton. In either Of the above formulas
gallon of the solution contains 4
pounds of soluble arsenic trioxide, or
approximately 1-3 pounds of ar
senite Of soda.

PETROGRAD, Nov. S.-(By al Staff Correspondent of The Associated Press.)-Cases of American milk, bags of American sugar and flour and boxes of American cocoa are tan talking sight to Russians as they are moved through the streets of Petrograd. All the population is en- vious of the children who are given food which money cannot buy. : The American Relief Administra- tion offices here are besieged by foreigners and Russians who want to buy food and are anxiously awaiting the time when warehouses may be established in Petrograd where food drafts may be exchanged for Ameri- can products now stored here by the child feeders.
 One does not have to be in Russia many days before he begins to un. derstand the great affection with which Emma Goldman is reported to have regarded the little store of American timed goods which she brought with her to Sovietland.

American Food Tantalizing Russians Envy Children

Every can of timed American milk is a letter from home and tin of bully beef is almost as welcome. American army biscuits taste better than angelfood and army jam smacks of heaven.
 Where everyone is his own stew ard and cook, as is the case in Rus sia now, prepared or partly prepared foods are indispensable. The mar kets afford no wood nor coal. There is no hard alcohol. Cooking is con fined largely to little oil stoves which are so demonstrative that a novice feels as if he were palming a hand grenade.
 Cafes are few and far between. They are still very small and offer little variety in their menus. Most of them do not open until II a. m. and close at p. m. Their coffee and tea are chiefly limitations. Their sweets are saccharine. Sugar is nearly $1 a pound in the open mar ket.

These were followed by floats made of flowers, in which were seated the most beau tiful senoritas, picked for the occa- sion, dressed in regular Mexican cos tunes. Cheers went up from thou sands of throats, drowning the music. The excitement was intense After the demonstration had spent itself, the little, relocated attendants cleared the ring. The toreadores now appeared They were gorgeously dressed in velvet coats, embroidered in gold and silver, satin knee pants and long silk sashes. Each toreador carried large silk drapery called a muleto. No two wore the same col ors or had the same colorad muleto These were usually black on one side and rose, blue or green on the other

One mostly sees only amateurish bull fights in the border towns of Mexico, but a real bull fight was arranged for the commemoration of Mexico's independence at the Cen tennial in Mexico City. Six bulls had been kept in narrow stalls, un- fed and in total darkness for some time They were released at the proper time in the binding sunlight of the big arena.
 The seating capacity of the arena at Mexico City is about 30,000. It is built of steel and concrete and is a very beautiful structure. Band stands and the Presidents box are arranged around the circle about eight rows up.
 l was told by several of the Mexi- can ladies who were on the commit tee for entertainment that the bull fight would perhaps be anything but pleasurable event for me. How ever, like all Alaskans, I always Ego in for anything once" told them after absorbing true stories of Kodiak bears that it would take more than a mad bull to unnerve me.

ALASKA TO GET BIG ROAD FUND
 UNDER NEW ACT
At Least $350,000 Expected Up to June 30, 1923
 Under Federal Highway.

The forest fund provisions of the Federal Highway bill, which was if nally passed by Congress last week and sent to the President for his signature, will give to Alaska at least $350,000 and possibly sum more than twice that size by the end of the fiscal year, June 30, 1923, according to figures given out by District Forester Charles H Flory. MT. Florys estimates are based on tables prepared by the Washington office of the Forest Service at the time hearings were in progress be- fore Congressional committees.
 No Definite Figures
 'It is not possible for us to give definite figures on the exact appor- tionment of the fund as the bill in itself provides that the Secretary of Agriculture shall distribute it among the several states and territories" !" said MT. F1ory. Provision, of course, is made for apportionment to Alaska from the fund on account of the Ma tional Forest lands in the Terri tory"
 As far as is known here, the act carries a total Forest Fund of $15,- 000,000. Under the terms of the act one-half of that amount would be ap- portioned by the Secretary of Agri- culture, according to the existing needs of the Forest Reserve lands themselves and according to the de. mand for transportation facilities. The remaining one-half is to be ap. portioned among the states and terri tories having National Forest lands

TAX REVISION
 MEASURE NOW
 PASSED SENATE
Important Measure Must Yet Be Threshed Out in Two
 Houses Conference.
THREE BILLION DOLLARS
 BE RAISED BY MEASURE
Several Luxury Taxes Be Re- placed = Increased Ex-
 emptions to Families.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. - The this morning passed the tax revision bill. The bill must yet run the gauntlet of the Senate and House Conference Committee before going to the President
 The vote was 38 to 24.
 Three Republicans, Senators La- Toilette, Moses and Norris voted with the Democratic minority in op- position to the measure, while one Democrat, Senator Broussard, voted with the Republican majority.
 At a rough estimate, tax experts say the bill would net approximately $3,250, ,000 or $200,000,000 less than the present law and about the amount the treasury says the Gov ernment must have.
 Eventually the provisions of the tax revision bill, as passed by the Senate. will reduce the nations tax toll by -si5Q.00o 900 annually.
 Threa mayor provisions on which the House and Senate agreed to in- clude are the repeal of the excess profits tax, transportation taxes next January 1 and the retention of the tax on corporation capital stocSs
 Other outstanding features of the bill include a reduction in the maxi mum surtax rate from 65 per cent on all oyer $1,000,O00 to 50 per cent on all over $20O,000; reteniiun of tbo House provision granting in- creased normal exemptions of $500 to heads of families having 5000 or less income; repeal of the $2,000 normal exemption to corporations ex- cept those having net incomes or S25 ,000 or less; repeal of the excise taxes on chewing gum, sporting goods, musical instruments, electric fans and many other articles as we'll as the stamp tax on proprietary medicine and toilet preparations.
 The Senate rejected various amenments including LaFollette's proposal to make tax returns pub, lie record and suggestions to con- tinue the excess profits tax. a
 On motion of Senator Reed, early last evening, the Senate voted by 32 to 31 to strike from the tax bill the amendments of Senator Lodge allowing holding of companies to deduct from their capital stock amount of such tax paid on stock of their subsidiaries ..

Oil Famine Is Predicted
 According to Gas Report

CHICAGO, Nov. S.-The gas and oil committee today reported to the American Gas Association convention delegates that the United States Is facing an oil famine. This is due to the increase in the use of automo- piles, which is increasing the cost of gasoline. Unless immediate steps are taken to increase the supply of oil, the situation will be more serious than at first appears. The petroleum duty will curtain Mexican shipments, aggravating the situation.
