WASHINGTON", May 18. After
the iirmy bill lmd liorn pt'rtVcttd in
both Iiouhcm of fnnrcHs today and

tui't, (lie senate adopted an ninend
inent to the war buuY'i't bill proposed
by Senator Smith of Georgia, to put
conscription out. of forco four months
after tbo cad of the war.
The Smith amendment had the sup
port of senators who unsuccessfully
fought the conscription plan and
fought unsuccessfully to confine the
new nnny to the "duration of the
war" instead of "the existing emer
gency." Opposition to the Smith resolution
was led by Senator Wadsworth, re
publican, of New York, who said:
"J)ocs congress want to put in the
minds ol our adversaries while (lis
cussing terms of peace the knowledge
that the American niiny is to he dis
banded m nny event within four
months niter ponce in declared?" he
iiskcd. "This very net of congress
would influence the deliberations of
tho peace conference. Wo would be
gumbling with the future, of which
we know absolutely nothing."

ing, world-wise maimer completely
captivated tho unsophisticated girl
When they were married in February
tier Jrienus considered the romance
n happy one. Other village girl
thought Pearl bad done well to "land
a good looking traveling man."
Redenbaiigh admits the jewelry he
sold was phoney and that a few hours
before bis wedding he rubbed a No
hriiska bank to raise funds for the
honeymoon.
When the nrrest was made here
the bride refused to believe her bus
band guilty. She tliought the police
had innde a foolish mistake. The
next day, though, she collapsed when
she saw his printed confession, nnd
then quickly rallied to the defense of
her "Dnddy Hoy."
"Oh, IJaddv, did you do it?" the
girl cried as the two rushed into each
other's nrms nt the police station af
ter his confession.
Confesses to Crime.
"Yes, Dearie, I did it," he answer
ed. "Hut you inusn't cry. It won't
do any good."
And then when the matron led the
girl nwuy, the cool youth said to nn
officer:
"She thought I was all right, and
I wanted her to keep that impression.
She's the sweetest ever. The poor
kid! I certainly hate to lose her.
After the first shock of the con
tession tlie girl wite quit weeping
and began plnns for her husband's
defense.
"It's all clear to me now whv be
didn't want us to raise a baby," she
snid. "lie didn't want a child to bear
his nnme. The poor boy was afraid
it would be like him.
Never Had a Chance.
"Daddy never had a chance. If he
had been raised differently he would
have been a good man. Ho confessed
to save ine and I um going to stick
by him.
"I guess we all have our crosses
to bear but it seems awfully hnrd just
when you've started out to be hnppy.
I never knew my boy did anything
like that until the arrest here. Hut
I um going to help him."
The police consider the youthful
couple a remarkable study tho boy
for his coolness in the face of damn
ing evidence of criminal operations
and the girl for her faithfulness.

INCREASED TAX
WASHINGTON, May IS. When
the house took iib the war revenue
bill again today the measure still fell
far short of providing J2, 245, 000, 000,
Secretary McAdoo's revised estimate
of one-half the cost or tho war for the
first year. The 25 per cent surtax in
creases on incomes over 140,000
which the house approved yesterday
in committee of the whole, provided
about $66,000,000 additional, a ways
and means committee expert estimat
ed. The committee met today to con
sider changes in the bill.
The house by a vote of 123 to 54
refused to strike out the section de-
Signed to levy a retroactive tax of
one-third the amount of last year's In
come taxes.
Representative Fess of Ohio, at
tacked the section as dangerous be
cause of the possibility of its setting
a precedent for a wide range of retro
active taxes.
Representative Green of Iowa de
clared members seemed determined to
tear down the bill offering substitutes
for section they would strike out.
The liquor section of the bill, which
would Increase the levy on whisky
from $1.10 to 2.20 u gallon, wa
adopted despite the efforts of prohi
bitionists to defeat the Increase. The.
maintained saloonlsts and distillers
sought the tax to internch their positions.
