In my humble pinion.' Deem said,
in defense of his resolution, the DEM
ocratic party is losing ground, prestige
and votes every day by continuing to
rush through legislation improperly
considered and some of which ap-
pears to be unconstitutional
Loud applause and cowboy yellS

Besides Deem, some other members
in both houses and both parties have
suggested quick adjournment. Senator

said that every day We stay in ses-
sion from now on is tragedy" Sem

Senator Copeland, Democrat, of New
York, the physician-legislator, pre-
scribes complete rest for Congress.
On the other hand, those in charge
of the tax and other measures de-
clared they knew of no plan to put
them off. The administration has
shown strong desire to have its
program enacted at this session.
The House Ways and Means Com
mittee has put aides to work drafting
a tax bill with specific rates. The
President, while calling for taxes on
large inheritances, increased levies on
big incomes and other steps, did not
suggest schedule of rates, except in
the case of corporate incomes.
The Ways and Means Committee
asked Lowell H. Parker, chief of staff
of the Joint Congressional Committee
on Internal Revenue, and Middleton
Beaman, House legislative counsel, to
try to shape up tentative bill for
the committees consideration.
That the job was a big one was
indicated by Chairman Doughtons
estimate that it would be next week
before the committee could go to work
on the bill. He guessed it would take
the committee about week" to fin
1sh the job.
Meanwhile advocates of the excess
profits tax contended such a levy
would be good answer to those who
opposed a graduated corporation in
come tax. In their study of the situ-
alton, they found this:
There is, in the present law, a
provision which allows corporations to
fix what is called the adjusted de-
clared value" of their capital. On
that they are allowed a 1919 per
cent profit All income above the
1212 per cent is subject to a 5 per

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
EMPTY BOX

The Mother Robin was pulling on
long stretchy, pink worm that
didn't want to come out of its hole
in the ground. Uncle Wiggily was
watching her. The Mother Robin
wanted the worm to feed to the
little, newly Matched, orphan robin
in box behind the warm stove in
the rabbit gentleman's bungalow
kitchen.
Come out! Come out!" cried
the Mother Robin, speaking in a
funny way because she had her
beak closed on the worm.
No! MOI" gurgled the worm in a
stiffled voice, which means sort of
checking like.
You must come out" said the
Mother Robin. "A little orphan
robin. who, think, is my own lit
tie bird, wants to eat you"
"Oh, I don't want to be gobbled
up by q hungry little robin even il
it is an orphan!" gurgled the worm,
still holding back.
oh, go ahead. Be a sport Z"
urged Uncle Wiggily. who was
laughing at the Tug of War be-

Tying the proposed expenditure of city
money to build a new library in coniunc-

AT present the library has 5,906 caro-

cent Of the entire city population. which
speaks well for the interest local resi-
dents have in cultural things
The library's volumes number 2S,l35.
and during the fiscal year Just closed a
total of 101,S06 volumes We're circulated
This IS an average of II per borrower or
II per capita. The average circulation
per borrower according to the American
Library association records is only five.
The fact that El Centro's average is more
than three times that figure is certainly
convincing proof that the people do use
their library.
While they are to be congratulated for
this, it is only wisdom that they should
make the fullest use of the library. 1t

volumes contained in the library cover q
wide field of reading and offer a selec-

see the library only as a luxury They
