inquiry INTO tax evasion3 under the

He added, however, that an investi-
CATION by the Treasury would BE-
preferable, since it is much mora
familiar with the facts than a con-
gressional committee could be.
Internal Revenue authorities already
should be at work, he suggested, to
plug loopholes in the tax laws and
start prosecutions where fraud is sus-
pected.

PRESIDENT VETOES
INSURANCE BILL
He Bars Plan to Extend
Conversion Time for
War Risk Policies.

President Roosevelt today vetoed an
act Of Congress which would have ex-
tended the time in which World War
veterans could renew their five-year
war risk term insurance policies.
The President in his veto message
said he did not believe any further
extension Of the privilege Of con-
verting the temporary war-risk life
insurance was warranted or would
ultimately prove profitable to the In
dividuals concerned: Three previous
extensions had been granted.
Mr.. Roosevelt pointed out that the
war risk insurance act, which au-
thorized the writing OF life insurance
by the Government for members of
the military and naval forces, stated
that mot later than five years after
termination OF the war, rs declared
by proclamation Of the President Of the
United States, the term insurance shall
be converted"
Rates Are Beguiling.
The President explained that "the
kind OF insurance to which term
insurance was to be converted was
founded upon mutual basis, the
Government simply administering the
system for the benefit Of the policy
holders. Premiums received on &C
count OF such insurance were for de-
post in the Treasury in a trust ac-
count separated from and not COM
mingled with the general funds Of the
United States"
The lower initial premium rates on
term insurance policies are beguiling,"
Mr.. Roosevelt wrote, land the holders
thereof should realize that the time

chinery into bill separate and dis
tinct from the other tax measures.
When the House subcommittee yes
terday flatly rejected the Commits
sioners' proposal for per cent re-
tail sales tax as the major element
of the "emergency' tax program Of
fered by the Commissioners, 1nstruc-
tions were given that the revised pro-
gram should be designed to produce
only 49,00O-the size OF the def
cit expected to develop in the fiscal
year beginning July on the basis Of
the 1888 budget as passed by the
House.
Estimated Revenue.
The revised tax program would
produce approximately $6,00O,0O0
above revenues from the present tax
system. provided the receipts Of the
weight tax were placed in the special
highway fund. If the weight tax
money went into the general fund"
and were available for the cost of
general municipal operations the new
tax program would bring into the
general fund" some $7,5OO,00O in
stead Of slightly more than $6,000 900.
If the Senate adds any consider
able sum to the 1893 budget as passed
by the House and if Congress finally
approves such increases the tax pro-
gram again would have to be re-
vised.
The Commissioners in the past con-
siStently have opposed an increase in
the real estate tax rate, but there
have been suggestions that in an
emergency the Commissioners might
have to boost the present rate of
$l.50 per 500 by S or 10 cents.
Under present plans, the Commits
sioners' committee proposes an in
come tax measure which would ex-
empt no resident of the District other
than those exempted by the Federal
Constitution, the President and the
Federal judiciary.
To Hold Rates Down.
They worked also along the line
that the income tax rates should be
held to the minimum and that the
tax for the privilege OF engaging in
business in the District should carry
the larger load, as between the two.
What the rates and the personal
exemptions will be under the income
tax bill, to be proposed by the Com
missioners, was being studied today
by the Commissioners committee,
consisting Of Maj. Daniel J. Donovan,
auditor; Elwood H. Seal, corporation
counsel; Richmond B. Keech, vice
chairman Of the Public Utilities Com

assistant corporation counsel.
Even with the proposed now tax
alton load, Commissioner Hazen and
Budget Onicer Donovan empha-
sized today that 1t would be essential
for Congress to permit the District to
obtain temporary loans from the
United States Treasury In order to
enable the District to meet its current
bills In the earlier part OF the new
fiscal year, beginning July /.
For instance. it is explained that
II the income tax is adopted the Dis
trict will not expect to collect most
OF that revenue until late in the next
fiscal year. Meanwhile, the District
would have to meet, month by month,
the costs OF its personnel, the opera
tion Of its buildings and services.
Quarterly Payments Undecided.
District oficials plan to make the
proposed District income tax returns
and payments due at the same time
as the Federal levy, the returns being
due by next March /. This would
afford an easy comparison OF the two
returns. Tentatively 1t is planned to
permit the payment OF the income
taxes on quarterly basis, just as is
the case with the Federal returns. In
order to assure full collections for the
1888 year, 1t has been suggested quar-
terly payments might not be allowed
for the first year Of the operation Of
the law. There was not immediate
decision on this point.

Japan and China have passed beyond the point where notes are exchanged and have reached the stage where reports of drives and smashing defeats" are com ing over the wires. Spain still furnishes its share of red hot battle news. The League of Ma tions, intended to afford a place where large stores of peace were available, up to the date of going to press has not delivered the goods precisely in accordance with specifications. If it is not practical at this time to have a hall of ternational peace, per haps it would be possible to set aside an area that could be us- ed when wars had to be pulled off, sort of international battle ground where differences could be settled at arms. In that way much valuable property could be saved and some hard feelings av- oided. Generals Sherman and Sheridan of Civil War fame, were spoken of unkindly, less because they were victors than because the one burned barns and the other cleaned up the supplies in a good growing country.

 mean that it was hastily consid- cred. During the past months, con gress has given enough study to the subject so that anything re- 1ating to courts can be handled almost as a matter of routine. In the measure now up for action, the Supreme Court is left some. what strictly alone, and if the new plans for court reform give rise to problems they will not be the ones which threatened te split parties and caused the gen. eral public to take the rostrum during the days of a warm sum. rner that now has passed middle life.
