M'CUMBER FORESEES
NO NEW BONUS FIGHT
No Tax Legislation Scheduled,
Senator Says.

Special Dispatch 10 THE NEW YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau, I
Washington. ID. c.. Oct. 80.
There will be no new tax legislation
ard no effort will be made to pass an.
other bonus bill next session OF Con.
eress, said Chairman Mccumber (ND.).
Of the Senate Finance Committee to-day.
He thinks the expected deficit OF $780,
100000 TO s600.o00,o0o should be met
by the issuance Of short term notes or
certificates OF Indebtedness.
Records show that the revenue from
the new tariff law last month" he said,
was the greatest in the history Of the
country. Importations have not been
reduced despite charges that the new
tariff duties mean the erection of a
Chinese wall around the United States.
Unless there is a decided change OF
heart on the part OF the many Senators
It would be useless to Introduce a new
bonus bill In the next Congress-"

Daniel O'connor has been active IN

mediate assistance. OF course
Adele thought that Jeanne, with
the Barstowe millions behind her,
would lend a helping hand. in re-
turn for the favor which Adele had
done her in the lean days before
the formers marriage.
There was silence for several
minutes while the two walked
along toward the avenue. Adele, in
swagger low-heeled, thick soled
walking shoes, swung carelessly
along through the black slush.
Jeanne, in French-heefed pumps,
picked her way distastefully; but
she was almost glad that Adele's
determination to walk had saved
her the price of a taxi. The Bar
stowe car would pick her up at
Vic's ONCE at the end of the day,
and the dollar or two in her purse
would be saved for some more
pressing need.
She smiled to herself bitterly
when she caught herself thus
counting pennies. Not since she had
come to New York had she given d
thought to her expenditures. In the
few brief months of her reign as d
woman OF wealth and fashion, she
had lived like a princess: and in
that short time she had almost for
gotten little Jane Dare. who used
to walk through the rain to the
school house to save 5 cents bus
fare.
Embarrassing Silence.
Adele seemed to be waiting for
Jeanne to say something. Jeanne
knew what it was; Adele was wait
ing for a proffer of assistance.
And she could say nothing. do
nothing. She faced a worse fate
than Adele's, for farther up the
avenue Madame Julie waited like a
tiger ready to spring, and Jeanne
had nothing to toss into the hun
cry NAV.
Finally Adele said hesitantly. q.

HOROSCOPE.
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1922.

Mars dominates today in the planet
Gry government, according to astrol-
Ogy, the rule being strongly benetic.
The sway is most favorable to all
constructive effort whether in bust
ness or political affairs.
The rule seems to indicate that
militarism will not be eliminated from
the worlds scheme of things. but that
armies will be used less\frequently in
settling human disputes
Uranus in evil aspect is read as
indicating that the disarmament con-
ference is to be subjected to severe
criticism which later twill be re-
GREETED
Under this sway material things
will have the strongest possible at
traction and physical pleasures will
take precedence of intellectual rec
reations. Eating Will be much es-
teemed as an amusement and res
taurants will profit.
Saturn, which is the evening star
until March. seems to foreshadow
many clashes between capital and
labor. Falling wages will cause dis
content in the spring.
Physicians and surgeons should
benefit from this rule, which is also
most fortunate for dentists who will
have great demands upon their serv-
ices, owing to some unusual conditions
affecting the health of patients. x
During this government of the
stars men are likely to be master
full and egotistical, inclined to quarrel
and to indulge their most selfish am
bitions.
The Moon. which will not be
eclipsed this year, today is in a sign
that is believed to promise fruitful
ness for the earth.
In Europe the spring is to bring
a new aspiration toward democracy
aud at least one thSSne will tremble.
Scandals will continue. to increase.
It is prophesied, and again II is fore
told that a man in high place will
become involved in one of national
scope.
Congress is to have more than one
sensational episode before adjourn
ment and personal encounter is in
dicated.
Persons whose birthdays II Is have
the augury of an active year that will
bring profit and insure progress.
Changes will not be fortunate.
Children born on this day are likely
to be energetic and gifted, but they
may expect rather quiet, happy
careers.
