Sales Tax Abandoned

CONGRESS began with the idea
~ Of increasing revenue by ST.
000,000,000 and cutting down ex-
penses by $250,0O0. 900.
1t was proposed to raise about
half the needed revenue by a gen.
eral sales tax. and the remainder
by various excise and nuisance
taxes, as well as a sharp increase
OF income taxes.
The general sales tax proved so
unpopular that it had to be aban-
doned, wheerupon the nuisance and
excise taxes were multiplied.
The tax bill was adequate, il i'm
perfect, as it left the house, but
everybody who had been subjected
to a special tax began to yell, and
the senate has been trying to quiet
the rumpus by altering this, or that
provision.

SAVINGS Are Eliminated

OdVlngS Are Eliminated
THE economy bill. designed to
l. save some s250,OOO,OOO, included
two major items. First, it provided
for consolidation Of the war and
navy departments, which was ex-
pected to reduce overhead expenses
by $50.000,000. Second, it provided
tor an ii per cent cut of all fed
eral employees receiving more than
$1,000 a year, which was expected
to save S67,000,O00.
The house has raised the exemp-
ton to this pay-cut provision from
81 900 to $4,000, thereby eliminating
more than s50,00O,O0O of the expect
ed saving. 1t also has voted against
consolidation of the war and navy
departments. which eliminates an
other S50,000,000

it means to ex-soldiers, as because
of the pretext it furnishes for in

Must Have Hardship

TTOUSE and senate can continue
l. 4 trying to perfect the details Of
each others work until there is
nothing left.
You can take each detail and
demonstrate that there was excel
lent reason for efforts to perfect it,,
but you can't take the plan as a
whole and demonstrate that much
has been accomplished, except mu-
tilation and destruction.
Architects know that you can
spoil the appearance of a house by
changing the style of the front
entrance, though you may have
made decided improvement in
the latter as a front entrance.
This scheme of trying to make a
structure fit details is all wrong.
We are not going to raise an aG-
ditional billion dollars through tax
alton without causing hardship and
distress. We are not going TO save
S250,000,000 without lowering the
pay of many employees and dis
charging others.
There just isn't any painless pro-
cess of digging into peoples pockets
or of cutting down expenses.

New York Charming rooms are within the reach of every body's purse this year.
 If you haven't vigited the dee pertinent and furniture atorea. you probably do not realize what wonderful opportunity the new low prices offer you to fix ID your house the way you always have wanted 1t.
 No one period or no one style prevails this fall. We have arrived at that point of sophisticatiOn where we realize that good taste consists in having your home eot- ting suit yourself. not some in- terior decorator.
 Particularly lovely this year are the rooms that combine some plain and some patterned things. Since ail-over floor carpetfngs are in again - and what . balm 10 tired

Yet some new wall papers pick out the
 design of caTpets in light and
 pleasant manner and blend per- fectiy.
 Should you be doing your rooms all over, plain carpets and plain walls give you wonderful ops portunity to combine much color in gaily printed uupholstery,E in cur- 1 trains, pictures and bric-a-bra The whole choice of your room's coloring and whether 1t is to be plain or figured depend on several things, the size of your room, the iightness or heavIness of your fur

Whatever kind of poultry may be selected for the Thanksgiving dinncr--turkey, duck, chicken or guinea fowl---there is | special stufiing for each bird.
 Turkey and chicken require q less highly favored gtufiing than duck or guinea fowl, but q taste for interesting combinations, a choice of seasoningg, blending of ingredients and the proper prcpor- ton of liquid are essential for all good stuffings.
 Bread stuffing is the foundation for many good filings. The addi- ton of celery. oysters, sausage, mushrooms, chestnuts and onions to tho basic recipe changes 1t as the cook desires. These stuffings, with the exception of onion, are suitable for any variety of fowl. Onion stufiing should not be used with turkey or chicken.
 Fruit stufftngs for Duck
 The highly favored fruit stuff ings are appropriate for duck and guinea fowl.
 Tn place Of bread. potatoes, rice or crackers are often used to give body to the stuffing. This type of stufiins is particularly good with goose and duck.
 The amount of stufiing required Is naturally determined by the size

 There was nothing of gaicty9 or charm about 1t. It didn't even seem fitting stage for tragedy. And yet, at the hospital, Sally was dying, apparently.
 There was strange darkness in the mir of the outside street. Sue slipped her hand into Jack's and hc held 1t tightly. The hos pitaI loomed just ahead.
