DONT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY s Hon on n basis of most rigid war econ omy were before' congress today. Hasty analysis of the department's suggestiufis brought this statement from a leading member of the house: "If these, suggestions were to Ue car ried out in their entirety without amendment, the American people would readjust their habits of living on a basiii of economy newr before dream ed of. Of course, the proposals arc u. tended to bring home to the people tha'. this war is a menacing thing that mnv take our bottom dollar. Without doubt congress will be deluged with protests. "Hut everybody should remember that the department submitted sugges tions merely and that congress will re gard them merely as bases for discus sion. The bill must raise 8,0Uu,uul),O(,u and that will require us to go into many new fields of taxation. But congress as a whole will be opposed to hitting any taxpayer harder than e ran near. The country should reali.o and must realize that everybody will have to bftir the burd.Mi." . The proposal for doubling the liquor, beer and tobacco taxes met with general approval as did that for putting a twen ty per cent tax on the price of new automobiles. The, suggestion that a horse power tax lw levied on all automobiles, already purchased, however, was much opposed. yiiggestinns that the admittance tax to movies be doubled, while a five per cent rental tax be eollect.-d from pro ducers was received with disfavor, as i tending to raise the price of "the peo ple s amusement ' too high. Congress be lieves the people should be allowed amusement cheaply and freely, so that their morale may bo kept up. Iu this connection nlrj strung adverse comment was made on the suggestion fur a ten percent tax on all leased tele graph wires. Many members declared anything tending to limit or hamper the fullest dissemination of news about the war mid the government's war activi ties will hnv a bad effect on the na tion's) morale, will interfere with liberty loan campaigns and prore generallv of more harm than good. This tax, thev pointed out, would deprive many news papers, particularly to smaller ones which reach renders in less densely settled districts, of wire service, upon which they depend to furnish their read ers with the news of the day. The proposed tax of 2o per cent to 100 per cent on the wages of household servants was eccepted as just. Suggested taxes on hotel bills and res taurant checks probably will be acetifi ed to conserve food. hepresentntivc Kitehin, to whom the 'C.'ggestions were-transmitted returned them today to the department with a re quest that an estimate bo furnishe-d him of the amount of revenue the depart ion. tiui'.Ks tno new taxes would rnif, This would involve further suggestions as to the rato or taxation on clothing house furnishings and toilet articles. In its original suggestions, the department did not even hint at tho proper rate, slating that his was wihin the pro vince Of congress to decide. Kitehin, now,?vcr, wants the department 's views on this point also, simply as a basis for starting discussion. By H. C. Hamilton (I'uited Press Staff Correspondent) New Yoik, June 10. The structure of baseball shook today on the very foun dation on which it has been built to a point where it is recognized as the clean est and most Representative sport of the nation. , At no time in the history of the pas time has such a series of events as that which led up to .the resignation of Gov ernor John K.

Unless some : settlement is found speedily there must, as a matter of course, follow a fight that threatens to strip tho organization .from beginning to end. I One thing is certain: the? National j league will eni.?rge from the clash purg ed of petty jealousies and enmities that have whipped it into tiny whirlpools for years. Certain factions which have, for some time spread hints of Gover-! nor Tenor's resignation and have even I gone so far as to prepare for his de-j mise as head of the league, will be si-; lenced in the get-together rush bound : to come off. Ther.? can be no question of! the stand these club owners will take. They will unite as a man behind their president, and unless the American lea gue backs down from its stand there will be a bitter fight. John K. Toner has stood for a straight forward course in baseball ever (since he lift the governorship of Pennsylvan ia and succeeded to the presidency of the parent major league. He lias been a calm adviser and a level headed ad viser at all times. His stand in this case is justified and clenn. He contends that tlii" national commission 's rulings should either be adhered to by all parties par ticiiiatini; in the national agreement or tlvat there should h.? no national com mission. Whethor the decision in the Perry cast was rialit or wrong- pan have no bearing on tl:o prime subject. mi i i Portland School Teachers Give Red Cross Banqnet at Gervais Last Week 8an Franrisco, July 10.
