WILSON and COLBY
TO BE LAW PARTNERS
RETIRING PRESIDENT AND SEC
RETARY TO UNDERTAKE IN
TERNATIONAl PRACTICE.

Washington. - With a brief an
nouncement that he will resume the
practice of law" President Wilson
gave that first indication of what he
intends to do after leaving the White
House.
1t was announced at the White
House that Mr.. Wilson would enter f.
partnership with cambridge Colby Of
New York, retiring secretary of state,
and the firm will establish offices in
New York and Washington. No in
formation Of the character Of practice
Wilson and Colby will undertake was
made available. Secretary Colby re-
fused to discuss the subject.
1t is assumed that the firm will en-
gage largely in the practice of interna-
tional law.
Mr.. Wilson's start in life was in the
law. Graduated from the University
Of Virginia, in his native state in
1881, he practiced in Atlanta two
years, and then in 1883 practiced in
Balumore while doing postgraduate
work at Johns Hopkins University. II
was then his writings attracted first
attention, and he wrote his volume on
congressional government He aban-
doned the law soon after, however,
and began collegiate work
With the announcement that Mr..
Wilson would practice law, official
Washington asked: "Is he physically
able to do so?"
Rear Admiral Grayson. Mr. Wilson's
physician, said his patient could, and
that he would be able to appear in the
Supreme Court Occasionally" Those
who know his condition think his prin.
cipal activities will be as couns sllcr.
1t was said at the White House that
Mr.. Wilson will apply for admission to
practice before the Supreme Court of
the United States.
Probably no announcement has sur
prised Washington more during recent
months. Mr.. Wilson kept his own
counsel concerning his plans up to the
last moment.
Much business for international la "
firms during the next so years un-
will arise out of the World
war and its aftermath. The wide ex.
tent Of Mr.. Wilson's knowledge of In
side international affairs during the
last eight years is conceded. He has
a store Of data on the peace confer
ence an idts proceedings, which is pos
sessed by no one else in the United
States.

CONGRESS WILL
REDUCE TAXATION
WILL ELIMINATE EXCESS PROF.
ITS AND OTHER OBJECTION
ABLE TAXES.
PROCEDURE Is UNCERTAIN
Appropriations For the Next Fiscal
ear Cut One-Third Below Depart
ment Estimates-Chance For
Surplus.

Observation-Disclosures Of the
excess profits and other Objectionable
taxes, the reduction of the tax burden
generally and simplification of the
tax system are the prospective out
standing features of the revision of
the revenue law by the sixty
Congress, which President Harding
shortly will convoke in extraordinary
session.
To what extent taxation can be re.
duced will depend upon the margin
of prospective revenue over prospec.
tive expenditure and such refinancing
OF government obligations as may be
decided upon
The appropriations for the next
fiscal year were cut one-third below
the departmental estimates. Even So
the total, including the IL measures
passed and signed by the president,
the army bill passed both houses but
killed by a pocket veto,' and the
naval bill which was filibustered to
death in the Senate, ran above $3,-
S00,000,000. Included in this total is
ABOUT $500, 100000 for the postal SER
vice paid out of postal receipts.
II no other expenditures were to
be made during the fiscal year and if
no funds were to be used toward the
retirement of the floating debt there
probably would be a surplus of about
$1,000, 100000 out Of anticipated reve-
nue.
The problem confronting Congress
is whether this surplus should be used
toward wiping out the floating debt
as was advocated by former Secretary
Of the Treasury Houston, whether OBJ
jectionable taxes such as the excess
profits tax should be repealed and no
substitute provided, or possible con-
tingencies, including the enactment of
soldiers bonus legislation, make it ad-
visable to impose new taxes in place
Of those repealed.
The revenue in prospect curing the
fiscal year beginning July l, 1921, and
ending June 80. 1922, for which ap-
preparations were just made, totals
aoout s5,35O,OOO,0O0 on the basis of
present laws. After. taking into ac-
count the greatly diminished returns
caused by the slump in business ac-
tivity the Treasury Department has
estimated that the present schedule
Of internal taxes will yield approx
mately $4,000, 100000 for that fiscal
year.

where ne has lived many years. House
and Senate seethed in the closing

was an honored member and leader.
The stir of legislative battle was
with him to the end. He lived again
In memory, as his pulses tagged,

sorrowing at his bedside heard the

In reverence to mark the passing of
the aged member. Knowing the vital
urgency OF time in the closing days of

word to both houses, from what lie
knew was his death bed, that no halt
in public business should be made at
his death.
In obedience the House halted q

In that pressing work Mr.. Clark
took active share up to a little more
than 10 days ago, advising. his party

cold struck him down to become
victim to the infirmities of his 20
years Of driving life. His death threw
a shadow over every face In the
chamber when Representative Rucker
OF the Missouri delegation arose to
announce it, his voice choked with
emotion. 1t was a halting, brief eulo-
gy he pronounced. but he drew from
members signs of sorrow more elo-
quent than words.

gathered this morning. The storm
centered around the Chilean dele

ton. regarding the Tacna-Arica
question between Chile and Bolivia.
1t had been reported on good au-

placed on the agenda as requested
by Bolivia for revision of the treaty

despite the refusal of the delegation
to confirm If, until Senior Edwards
gave out a fat denial.
Efforts at Cancellation i'm the Chile
an-Bolivian conflict were continued
throughout the day by Lord Robert
Cecil, who represents South Africa
and others. but without success.
The uneasiness caused by this in
cident increased during the after
noon. II was announced then that

maintain their demand and intended
TO ask instructions from their gov
eminent IN case the assembly reject
