A speaker recently before Q gather

,dc main reason why shoes had not
dropped In price more was that shoes
on the market were being made from
hides that cost 80 cents. 40 cents and in
some cases so cents per pound, that
leather made from cheap hides was not
yet available to the manufacturers.
His idea seems to- be thstshoe manufsc-
turers must not lose anything on The stock
they bought at high prices, that they
must get cost and their profit out of
the shoes. regardless Of anything else

WASHINGTON
DAY BY DAY

Washington, Oct 1.-At this time
it seems that the Senat" Democrats,
under leadership of Senator Simmons
of North Carolina, have obtained an
important victory in the c0ns'dcra-
ton of the tax revision bill. Re2ub-
lican leaders are cOncedlng that the
force of opposition to the bilt will
make it necessary for them TO re-
write the bill almost in its entirety
either by withdrawing it from the
Senate or by suffering important
amendments to be made on the floor
Of the Sanate.
Stated in a general way, The OBJ
noxous features of the bill! - which
the Democrats have been successfully
objecting are those which purpose
lifting the taxes on the rich and plac-
ing them on the less able to pa taxes,
The Republicans had proposed TO a.
bolish the taxes on excess profits Of
large corporations and make ne sur
tax on large individual income l2sa
even than the rates in the House bill.
Senator Simmons and his col
leagues, working unconsciously with
the so-called agricultural bloc Of the
Senate, have virtually won great
victory on the proposition of lessen
ing taxes on the rich and it is now
certain that amendments to be adopt
ed to the tax bill will increase the
burden of the rich and decrease the
burden of the poor. The Democrats
of the Senate, although numbering
only 81, have been almost a unit
in supporting the vigorous onslaught
of Senator Simmons and have been
responsible for the sudden determin-
alton Of the Republican majority to
change the bill.

Foreign Debt Bill.

President Harding will, in the near
future. make an appeal to Congress
to pass the bill giving broad powers
in the settlement of foreign loare
to the Secretary of the Treasury.
1t is the hope of the administration
that this bill can be passed prior 10
adjournment and the President Is ok
pected to exhort Congress to pass the
bill whether it wants to or not.
The reason for this is that trcmeu-
dous pressure in being brought TO
bear on the administration to make
some sort of settlement Of the DEBT
question in the interest of the econ
omic stability of the world. Bankers
OF New York and Europe ara inter
csted in the movement on the theory
that there can nc ~ settlement 81
the exchange situation until the proo-
lem of foreign debts is solved.
1t is already admitted that the
President will have a hard time fore
ing this bill through Congress. The
reason is that the bill gives almost
autocratic powers to the Secretary
of the Treasury and will enable him
to make any kind of settlement Of
the foreign debt that occures to him.
short of actual cancellation of the
debt.
The theory OF Congress seems to
be htat if no sharp practices arc
contaminated in the settlcmen- If
the debt question ard if the admins
tration really is determined to make
an equitable settlement that will be
agreeable to all Americans, there IS
no reason why the terms of settle
ment cannot be arranged in advance
and thcn submitted to Congress ior
approval.
