House Leaders, However, De
clare Levy Is' Necessary
to Protect Nation.
VOTE THURSDAY IS HOPE
Attacks on Measure Como From
Many Quarters Parcel Post Is
. Suggested as One Source.
Hearing Is Extended.
"WASHINGTON. May 12- The -war
time tax schedules of the $1,800,000,000
revenue bill were attacked as threat
ening: the life of many Industries by
a score of witnesses today before the
Senate finance committee and were de
fended by House leaders during" de
bate on the other side of the Capitol
as absolutely necessary to preserve the
life of the Nation.
Manufacturers, Jobbers and retailers
In many lines touched by the new
levies. Including- high officials of some
of the country's leading Industrial con
cerns, almost without exception con
demned the House bill as unjust, dis
criminatory and likely to result In the
suspension of many of the smaller bus
iness houses.
The third day of debate In the House
brought further protests from mem
bers and many suggestions that the
heavier increase be modified and other
levies substituted. There was a dwindling-
attendance, however, and Demo
cratic Leader Kltchln said he hoped
to have a vote not later than Thurs
day. Nation Declared In Danger,
Representative Ralney, of Illinois,
ranking Democratic member of the
ways and means committee, took up
most of the time today defending the
measure. The Increase in second-class
postage rates was attacked from many
quarters, and Mr. Ralney said the com
mittee simply was trying to get back
part of the annual loss which the
Government sustained through carry
ing newspapers and periodicals through
the mails at 1 cent a pound.
"Those of us who drew this bill
knew that the life of the Nation is In
danger," said Mr. Ralney.
Representative Wood, Republican, of
Indiana, declared that there are many
Inequities In the bill and suggested a
tax of $3 a head on all the business
men. Under the present provisions, he
said, 10,000,000 Independent business
men would contribute nothing toward
the enormous total to be raised.
Representative Dyer, Republican, of
Missouri, also attacked the measure,
saying that many of the things to be
taxed on the theoery that they are
luxuries are In reality necessities.
Hearing: to Continue.
Most of the Senate committee wit
nesses expressed their willingness to
do their bit in paying war taves, but
declared the House provisions distinct
ly unfair. Those who protested In
cluded concerns Interested In taxes
proposed for public utilities, coffee,
tea, advertising. Insurance, automo
biles, musical instruments, the moving
picture Industry, Jewelry and drugs.
Because of the great number who have
asked to be heard, the committee de
cided' to continue Its hearings one day
longer tflan Intended and close them
Wednesday night.
Taxation of parcel post packages was
among the new revenue plans sug
gested to the committee. Upon drugs
a new tax to consumers of 1 cent upon
every 25-cent purchase was recom
mended by druggists, who said the
proposed levy on the industry as now
drawn could not be passed along.
Billboard, poster and streetcar ad
vertleers protested to the committee
against the exemption of newspaper
and magazine advertising from taxa
tion.

Doctor Tells How To Strengthen
Eyesight 50 per cent in One
Week's Time in JMany Instances
A Fro
Prescription om Can Have)
Filled astd XJmm at Homo
Philadelphia. Pa. Do you wear
glasses? Are you a victim of eye strain
or other eye weaknesses? If so. you will
be glad to know that according to Dr.
Lewis there is real hope for ; ou. Many
whose eyes were falling say they have
had their eyes restored through the
principle of this wonderful free pre
scription. One man says, after try
ing it: "l was almost blind; could not
in mil at all. Now I can read
everything without any classes and my
i eyes do not water any more. At night
they WOUIU psin orwuiuuj, nuw iuei
feel fine all the time, it was like a
miracle to me." A lady who used it
aays: "The atmosphere seemed hazy
with or without glasses, but after us
ing this prescription for la days every
thing seems clear, 1 can even read fine
print without glasses." It is believed
that thousands who wear glasses can
now discard them in a reasonable time
and multitudes more will be able to
strengthen their eyes so as to be spared
the trouble run expense of ever getting
glasses. Eye troubles of many descrip
tions may be wonderfully benefited by
following the simple rules. Here Is the
prescription: Go to any active drug
store and get a oottle of Bon-Opto tab
lets. Drop one Bon-Opto tablet in a
fourth of a glass of water and allow to
dissolve. 1th this liquid bathe the
eyes two to four times dally. You

flammation will quickly disappear. It
four eyes are bothering you. even .
ittle. take steps to save them now be
fore it in too late. Many hopelessly
blind might have been saved if they
had cared for their eyes In time.
Note: Another prominent Physician ta

"Bon-Opto Is a vary remarkable remedy. Its
constituent Ingredients ere well known to
eminent eye specialists and widely prescribed
by them. The manufacturers guarantee It
to strengthen eyesight oo per cent In one
