1t Is very true that paying as one
goes. which means keeping ones ex.
pend lures within ones capacity to
pay, is not in keeping with present day
methods. The increasing public debt,
local, state and national, shows that
this is true. But that does not mean

financial one Can we afford to keep

be wiser fiscal policy TO bond our

II is a curious dilemma that the
members of Congress are facing to.
day. They do not like sales tax
II is considered By many of them the
plan of Wall Street; and Wall Street
is DOGGY with which they brighten
their children But they want to pass
a soldiers bonus bill That they have
pledged, and they fear political re.
prisals If they do not fulfill the pledge.
SO they face the problem with every
evidence Of sincere terror What can
they do about It? They cannot make
the President change his mind. In
deed, they are very doubtful whether
no has not become, at heart, opposed
to bonus legislation at present. They
wonder whether the suggestion that a
years delay be decided upon does not
represent his real aim And this won.
derment Is even more embarrassing.
for years deay means that they will
be compelled to face the electors with
an unfulflled pledge and a possible de-

The President Is not troubled over

sides. he has no such fear of the sales
tax as Is tortWing some Of the mid.

permit any changes in the excess

oas plans suggested His position is:
Gentlemen. you can have the bonus
paid at once through the sales tax.
Either this or We will postpone the
bonas. Or you can pass your legis.

IL is rather q strong position. 1t is
rot ideal for the legislators. They
must act on their own initiative.
They must decide which of two evils
is the least OF course there is one
thing they can and may do. They may
calmly pass the bill they believe to be
the best one, allow the President to

veto. II they fail, at least they will
have done all they could; and they can
go to their constituents and tell them

But the trouble is that they fear
their constituents will not believe the
sincerity of their actions. SO they

BRITAIN REFUSES TO
ACCEPT U. S. DRY PLAN
Cannot Agree to Extend Area
For Searching Vessels to
Twelve Miles

Washington, ID. c. British rejec-
tton of the American proposal for a
treaty to extend the right of search
OF vessels up to II miles on shore was
contained in note handed to Secre-
tary Hughes by Ambassador Geddes.
The communication was in reply to
Mr.. Hughes note setting out Difficult
ties encountered by American prohi-
bition enforcement officers in check
ing the Illicit flow of intoxicants in
to the United States.
The American note dealt particu-
larly with smuggling operations from
British possessions in waters ada
cent to the American coast and sug-
gested methods by which the exist
ing extremely unfortunate conditions
might be remedied" Among these
was proposal for careful supervision
of registries and clearance papers
granted to suspected vessels and IAN
international arrangement between
the United States and Great Britain
under which the authorities of each
nation would be authorized to exer-
else beyond the three-mile limit Of
troll over vessels belonging to the
other"
There was appended an inquiry as
to whether the British government
was disposed to agree to the recipro-
cal right OF search up to IL miles
from shore
In reply, Ambassador Geddes point
ed out that his government had al
ready taken steps before Mr.. Hughes
note was received to prevent the prac-
tices as to registry issuance and
clearance papers to which attention
had been drawn. With relation to the
proposed treaty, however, he said:
"His majesty's government have
consistently opposed any extension of
the limit of territorial waters such
as that now suggested. They feel that
the outbreak of smuggling which has
led TO the proposal cannot be regard
ed as a permanent condition, but as
one which will, no doubt, be suppress
ed by the United States authorities
within the not distant future"

Washington, d. C.-President Hard

OF the House, expresses his belief
that the general results of the ac-

ty-sixth and sixty-seYenth congresses

have been called upon for such ardu-
Gus service as has been exacted from
the sixty-seventh" and adds that he
doubts ''if any Congress in our history
has accomplished so impressive a vol
ume OF work, touching so wide a
range Of national interest"
In addressing his letter to Mr.. Mon
dell, who is the Republican candidate
for the Senate from Wyoming, the
President asserts he does so lin tes-
timony Of my appreciation of the
great public service of yourself as its
majority leader" He also praises
