LONDON. Sept. 2.-England's great
estates are crumbling under the weight
of taxation and death duties and one
big landed proprietor after another
among the nobility is dividing and sell
ing bis holdings. many of which have
been in the hands of single families for
centuries.
The latest indication that peers are
finding it necessary to seek smaller
homes comes in the announcement of
the Duke of Portland that he may have
to abandon his nalatial mansion We'll

is only one of the residences of the duke
who owns some 100000 acres in Eng

to authorize the war finance corporation
to use its funds to pay the railroads GER
tain sums owed them. This, it has been
contended. would mean the placing of a
half billion dollars of money into pur-
chases for equipment and would mean
that the steel business and other trades

congress to act ON the railroad bill before

senate refused to allow the plea to inter
fere with its plans for q months vaca-
ton.
Fourth, congress has debated first the
tariff and then the revenue bill and has
failed to pass either one. The administra-
ton has urged action right along con-
tending that the business men of the
country want To know what their taxes
will be before they make any plans for
expansion or the reopening of factories
closed down. 1t is practically as difficult

hurry up and get the tax bill through by
July / so that planning could be done
during the summer months. Now it will
be late autumn before there will be a
revenue bill. THE administration will
have to keep constantly in mind of its
duty to get results on the tax bill. the
passage of which is expected to stimulate
business.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2.-The under
lying purpose of the unemployment confer
ence called by President Harding is to
get congress employed. The administra-
ton realizes that unless the Republican
majority gets busy and passes the legisla-
tion which is needed to stimulate business
throughout the country the number of job
less folk viii increase instead of diminish
this winter and the congressional elections
next fall may develop considerable dan
ger for the party in power.
Congress is taking a vacation at pres
ent and the administration reluctantly
consented to the recess But when both
houses reconVene the drive will begin TO
clear the calendar of the vital measures
which most everybody blieves will mean
better industrial and business conditions.
Few officials can be found who think the
mere calling off of an unemployment con-
ference can produce jobs for the idle or
food for the hungry. The most that can
be accomplished * the collecting of data
as to the true conditions of unemployment
and the laying of that data cOnSpicuouSly
of mute warning to the Republicans that
theirs is the responsibility for action on
pending bills. 1t is for the psychological
effect that the conference is being called.
What Congress Should Do.
President Harding wants congress to
do several things which in his opinion
will speed the return to normally.
First. the President wants the pending
treaties with Germany and Austria rati-
fled so that Americas foreign relations
will be clarified and trade resumed with
central Europe.
Second. Mr.. Harding wants authority
given at once to Secretary Mellon to ar
range with the allies for the payment of
interest and principal on the 100000
600 900 owed us. Thus it is hoped that
by definitely fixing the time of payments
the allies will be able to calculate upon
the amounts they must set aside every
wear toward the payment of the debt and
when the allied governments begin to
finance themselves on a definite basis the
value of their currency will increase and
international exchange which * the basis
of all trade will tend to become equaliZed.
With exchange improved. the purchasing
power of Europe will gradually return.
Once the purchasing power of Europe Is
restored. American surplus goods can be
exported and the firms which have closed
down their factories will want TO reopen
them so as to supply Europe. Indeed, the
international bankers who have favored
the league of nations and American CO.
operation with Europe i'm matters of
finance have argued that American fac
tories would never have closed down if
two years ago the United States had rati-
fled the Versailles treaty and entered into
closer financial relationship with Europe
However that may be. the fact is the
same argument is being made now in be-
half Of the HugheS-Knox treaty. namely,
that ratification win stabilize economic
conditions" in Europe and thus help
America to sell her goods.

move in the direction of discovering the
true facts. but when anybody asks an adj

with the facts. what remedies are pro-
