WASHINGTON, Dec; 29. .Presi
dent Wilson lias tentatively agreed
with administration loaders in con-
gross on a bond Issue to meet part
of the treasury deficit which con- j
fronts the government for the fiscal
ye-ir ending Juno SO, 1918, estimated j
at about $ 1 S0,000,0u0. With Sucre- '
i
tnry AlcAdou, the president is work- '
ing on plans for ia:s:ng additional !
revenue. j
Tlie president has pointed out that '
he believes a bond issue should be '
utcd only to meut temporary and i
emergency expenditures. Many of '
tiiese have been canned by tiie Mcxl- :
can situation. j
The treasury already has authority I
by previous acts of congress to issue t
Panama bonds nnd about $240,000,- 1
000 oi these are available. They J
would bear three per cent. j
Plans for raising the other revenue '
are understood to concern the income ,
tax, an inheritance tax nnd special :
taxes on Internal revenue and im- i
ports.
Tho deficit figures differ accord- !
Ing to congressional and adminlstra-
tive viewpoints. Secretary McAdoo
estimated In his annual report the ;
actual deficit in the working bal- !
ance of tlio treasury on Juno 30.!
1!US, at $ 185,583,000,. which ac-
accounts for appropriations unex-;
pended combined with the left over
balance. The congressional appro- '
prlations committees basing t'leir j
estimates upon the actual appropria-'
Hons without regard as to whether i
tho. executive departments spent all !
or part of the appropriations flguve 1
$813. 260,654 as the deficit. 1
The outstanding interest-bearing '
debt of tlio United States, June 30, j
last, as reported to congress by Sec-
the stern on Ihc port side, danuiini; I '''tiir.v McAdoo, amounted to $071,-i

this government is at all likely. Mean
while the announced policy of silence
prevails.
The Norwegian note with which
those i'rom Denmark and Sweden are
identical, follows;
"It is with the most lively infete-l
that the Norwegian ijovermnent has
learned of the proposals which Hie
president of the 1'nilcd Slutes h;is
just made ulih the purpose of facili
tating measure-; looking toward the
establishment of a diuahle pence,
while at the same time seeking to
avoid any interference which would
cause pain to legitimate feelings.
"The Norwegian government would
consider itself failing in it (Jutic
towards its own people iVnd town
nil humanity if it did not express its
deepest sympathy with ail efforts
which could rout filiate to put an cud
