PROBLEM
Must Finance Government
And Still Keep Party
Pledges
TAXATION is SPECTER
Tariff and Soldier Bonus
Demands Confront
Leaders
Bv LAWRENCE MARTIN

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, April 20.--A prob
lem Of dollars and cents--hOw to fl
nance the government and keep party
pledges--loomcd today as the hardest
task of republican leaders from this
time on.
The problem is complex but here are
it's elements:
Taxcs-How to keep them producing
enough to run the government, and at
the same time keep the party's prom
ises to reduce taxation.
Tariff-How to make it produce rev.
cnue and at the same time satisfy the
demands Of business and agriculture for
protection against foreign competition.
The soldier bonus-How to pay it
without running the party with the
voters, or how,to avoid paying it with
out running the party with ythe ex-
service men.
The party put into effect new tax
law with the strong intimation that
within q year taxes would again be re
duced.
Now, Secretary Mellon warns Of a
$4S4, 100000 deficit next year. Income
tax payments have fallen off alarm
ingly.
Consideration of the tax problem al
ways Is bringing up the bonus question,
for taxes, litany republicans hold, must
be levied for at least part Of the bonus
payment. .@5
Hope is strong among senatorial
bonus advocates that the foreign debt
funding commission Will complete me-
gotiations by June, through which $A,,-
O,000 900 worth Of British bonds will
be received in payment Of Great Brit,
ian's war debt. -
Upon these, money could quickly be
realized to pay the bonus. But Presi-
dent Harding will not permit congress
to count OH these British bonds until
the bonds are actually in hand.
The naval appropriation bin is now
before the senate as passed by the house
last night, it carried approximately
$25l ,269, 900 and provides for an en-
listed personnel Of $4,000 men. An at
tempt to boost the number Of the en-
listed men still higher, vii be made by
"'big navy, forces in the senate, but
Indications are the house figure will
stand. :"e-
The total carried by the bill is now
approximately $ls,OOO,o00 more than
the house appropriations committee rec
commended "-,

Ruskin,s "EIowsr weddlna.n

There is a beautiful passage about
the flower in one Of Ruskin's letters
You will find" he says, that In fact,
all plants are composed of essentially
two parasitic leaf and the root-one
loving the light, the other darkness;
one liking to be clean, the other to
be dirty; one liking to grow for the
most part up, the other for the most
part down. and each having faculties
and purposes Of its own.
But the pure one which loves the
light has, above all things, the pur-
pose Of being married to another leaf,
and having child leaves. and chill
dren's children of leaves to make the
ecrth fair forever. And when the
leaves marry they put on wedding
robes and are more glorious than Sol
omen In all his glory, and they have
feasts Of honey, and we call them
flowers"

DAMAGE DONE TO COLISEUM
English Writer criticizes Action Of
the Authorities in Removing
Ivy From the Walls.

For many centuries down to Febru-
airy /, 1872, there was a solemn pro-
cession from the Church Of San Glenn
ente to the Coliseum in Rome, carry
ing the relics of Saint Ignatius, the
disciple of ST. John and companion
of Polyearp, around the scene where
on that date he had been deyoured
by lions as the first of the martyrs
of the Coliseum. The spot where
shortly after his death 115 Christians
were shot down by arrows was
marked until 1872, by cross which
was then destroyed.
1.-THE dealings of the authorities
with that ancient monument have been
neither merciful nor tender" says an
article in Cornhill Uondon). "Na-
ture has clothed its ruined walls with
an exquisite veil of greenery; fora
so marvellous and interesting that
books had been written on its 400 va
rieties, a few of which were so rare
that their seeds are supposed to have
come In ancient days in the cages of
wild beasts from tropical countries.
They have all been scraped away. the
walls are bare, and more damage has
been done to them by dragging out
the roots OF the shrubs than might
have happened naturally in the course
of centuries.

Chief Source OF Highly important
Article of Commerce Is the Islands

Few people who use sponges ever
give a thought as to how they are OBJ

London Daily Mail. The finest quail

Sponges come from the Mediterranean
the chief grounds being off the
Greek and Turkish islands-thence
through the DardanelleS to the Sea of
Marmora, and so along the coast of
Asiatic Turkey and Syria to Cyprus.
Here the sponges are brought up by
divers, either stripped or attired in
fuu diving costume. When sponges
first reach the surface they present

This is the only living portion of

this operation is not performed on

the filed sponge bags are dispatched
with all speed to the gathering
grounds. There the fluid is removed
and various cleaning and bleaching
processes transform the raw" sponge
into a beautiful lemon-yellow color.
This done, the sponges pass to other
hands for trimming to shape, and
later they go to the graders, who
sort them according to quality and
size. The next process is that of dry
