Debate on 8-BiIIion
Tax Bill Scheduled
In Senate tuesday
Committee Approves so
Levy on Gross Incomes
Over 1914 q Year
BY the Associated Press.

An sS,OOO,0OO,OOo wartime tax
bill containing a victory tax"
on individual incomes was ready
today for Senate consideration,
scheduled Tuesday.
Chairman George of the Senate
Finance Committee which finally
approved the bill late yesterday esti-
mated that the new revenue, added
to that already provided for under
present laws, would bring Fedora!
income up to nearly $26, 1000, 100000 a
year.
Treasury officials nave estimated
that the Senate bill would add only
$6,851, 100000 to current revenue.
The conflict between the two es-
Inmates of what the new revenue
measure would produce represented
a difference of opinion between the
Senate Finance Committee and the
Treasury. When passed by the
House, the bill was designed to raise
s6,271 100000.
will Study Report.
Although Senator George is eager
to get the measure on the statute
books before the November elections,
he agreed not to call it up for Senate
action Monday in order to let Sena-
tors have sufficient time to study the
committee report.
Differing in many particulars from
the bill which passed the House July
20, the Senate version calls in gen.
eral for sharply increased income
tax rates on individuals and corpora
tlons, broadened bases for each class
OF taxpayers and higher excise levies
The Senate committee yesterday
reversed a previous decision to raise
the transportation rate to Is per
cent on ordinary travel and 20 per
cent on de luxe accommodations
and went along with the House in
doubling the present 5 per cent tax
on train, bus and airplane tickets.
The victory taxa 5 per cent
levy on gross incomes over 1924 a
year, coupled with system of post
war refunds-is the principal inno-
vation. Some members of the COM
mittee said they believed the victor,
levy might be replaced by sales tax
during consideration in the Senate
Others, however, pointed out that
the House had rejected the sales
tax and that Secretary of the Treas
ury Morgenthau had condemned the
principle of a sales lew.
Yield Affected by War.
Senator George said the actual
yield from the bill might vary con.
siderably from the present estimate
because Of war conditions. Cor.
porations making and selling con.
sumer goods may find their profit.
limited through inability to get raw
materials. Renegotiations of wal
contracts may reduce the profits @,
armament plants to such a degree a.
to cut sharply into the estimated
yield from the excess profits levy
he said.
A subcommittee appointed t,
study possible changes in the con
tract renegotiation law is expecte,
to report to the Finance Committe
after Monday. Senator George said
The Treasury, War and Navy De
partments and the Maritime Com
mission have opposed suggestion
for a nat percentage limitation o.
war profits and members Of the sub
committee indicated that only per
fecting amendments to the existin
law would be recommended.

of mans egoistic pride in monopo-
lizing the fighting game.
Man has made fighting his role
in life and left domestic duties for
women. Obviously the extremes of
biological unlikeness between the
sexes has been a continuous fun
damental influence in this Speciali-
zation of labor. Men realize that
war has dehumanizing tendencies
which become more widespread as
the war proceeds. Therefore, they
desire their women folk to remain
in the domestic role of Keeping
the home fires burning. When men
return TO the domestic hearth they
desire TO forget war and to take up
the roles of citizens in a refined
world of peace. They expect their
women to provide the setting and
inspiration for this reformation,
FIGHT TO END WARS
Men always fight wars to end
all wars, They do not want their
children TO die in war so they

children TO be peaceful and to rule

less so they are demanding place

Even the man who admits that
women should be given full rights
will not sanction their assumption
of full duties. Particularly are
they unalterably opposed to women
joining the fighting forces as bel
ligerents. AS a matter of fact men
restrict the amount of femaleness
that women may retain in auxiliary
military roles, even those that
according to destiny seem best fitted
for women. Military nurses are not
permitted TO have romantic rela-
tons with members of the armed
forces. Such regulations are rigidly
enforced.
Women who served as Red Cross
and Salvation Army Workers during
World War I were most acceptable
and effective when the soldiers
could look upon them as Angels
of Mercy, Men peculiarly enough
never seem TO think of angels as
being masculine. The effective wo-
men of the current war social SER
vices are going to be judged by
the same lofty standards.

THE SUBJECT OF this release
pertains neither to war nor race
relations 1t pertains rather to
life and character both of which
transcend the uncertain fortunes
Of war and the yexations of race
relations. When Milton set himself
to the sacred task of writing his
immortal PARADISE Lost he prayed
thus. And chiefly Thou, o Spirit,
what in me is dark illumine, what

with spirit akin to this that
write what is partly q tribute and
partly a suggestion.

whose wife was named Julia. She

through my Sc motherless years.
Silver and gold she had none but
such as she had she gave unto me.
She did the only worth while thing
d mother can DO for a child and
that is give it the example Of low
ly greatness.
CALLED PROUD
Mama Julia could neither read
nor write. She was black She
walked with sprightly step and the
neighbors called her proud Her
humble home was Immediately
clean and soon she had impressed
upon me the lessons of cleanliness
and industry for when I was but
a tot she taught me my chores
| about the home. How TO sew on
| buttons and wash the dishes were
| some of my earliest lessons in life.
Well do I remember that on that
South Carolina plantation she was
The only seamstress among hun
| dreds Of Negroes.
AT that time Negro children for
the most part were wearing home
| made clothes to school and a hard
kind of shoe known among school
children as "penitentiary hrogans. .
Mama Julia saw to it that such
shoe never was put upon my fast
growing feet.

Darkness covers the face Of the

The veil of the temple is rent,
Yet-the heart of man feast on lr
mirth.
Hardened hearts, will not repent.
The Savior drags his cross along,
And staggers beneath the heavy
load;
Cruelty him" they jeer in song,
AS they rushed down the bloody
road.
IT'S the ninth hour.
They've reached the fork in the
road now
Hail king of the Jews" they cry;
AS the wreath of throngs is placed
on his brow!
They mock and scor and lie;
AS. at last he stands on Calvary's
hill.
But heavens host is breathlessly
still.
And the world looks on-dark and
cold
IT'S the ninth hour.
They pierced him and the blood ran
out,
They place two thieves on either
side;
Behold! and earth quake turned
about,
And shook the earth with shame
and pride
Hear the Savior say on Calvary
MY God why has thou forsakerI
me?"
And then-bow his head in agony.
And died upon the tree.
TITS the ninth hour.
Darkness covers the face of the
earth
The world is stepped in sin and
shame,
And sin stalks in the halls of mirth
And who but we are to blame?
The Savior is coming back again,
TO give peace to the children OF
men,
Lo' the light CLEANS beyond the
plain
And the sound of running wind.
IT'S the ninth hour.
The reign of sin is almost DER,
The hour of Gods Judgment has
come
What have you done?
What are you doing now?
Will you press the thorns upon his
brow?
Only you can make the choice.
lis you must choose to weep or re-
joice.
To die or live upon the other shore
