These portraits are now on exhibition at the Crawford Studio shop in Biir lingame. Her genius for analysis and characterization arc nowhere better shown than in these portraits.

Pluns for financing the war were discussed today by Secretary McAdoo with members of the house ways nnd means committee and with Chairman Simmons of the senate finance com mit lee. The if.1,-400,000,000 already asked for the army and navy is expected to suffice, in addition to tho regular appropriation bills until June 30, 1918. The step considered most import ant now is the extension of ail im mense credit to the entente nllies probably at least $2,000,000,000 as an indication that the nation is going into the war to the bunt with the re sources most reudily available. Bonds under such plan would bo issued to take over bonds of tho nl lies, making them in effect security for those obligations. Most of the money derived from such bonds, it is expected, would bo spent in tho Unit ed States. On the question of finances lead ers feel that the burden of the war should be about equally dividod be tween luxation and bond issues. BOPP TELEPHONES RAN FRANCISCO, April 7.
