CHANGES III REVENUE MEASURE TAKEN UP BY G. 0. P. COMMITTEE (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON. Aug. 8. The real work of "revising the 1918 revenue law was begun today by Republicans of the ways and means committee with the expectation that they would have the bilWeady for the house at representatives by the end of next week. The big problem was said to be the determination of the cuts to be made In present taxes. There are almost as many views, at least on some parts of the subject, as there are members of the committee, and it was believed that the harmonizing of these would require some little time. One difference revolves arouna me transportation tax. Some committeemen favor immediate repeal of all this levy, while others believe it would be the part of wisdom to follow the treasury suggestion that one half bs cut off now and the remainder next vear. Must Substitute Measures. Treasury suggestions for new taxes, except possibly an increased levy on cigarettes and tobacco products, appeared to have few supporters. It had been explained, however, that to revise or repeal some of the taxes regarded as particularly objectionable or burdensome, it might be necessary to imnose some new or additional levines These questions together with thatl of whether the excess profits tax is to be repealed as of last January 1 or next January 1, remains to be work out. m iV Irrespective of the effective of th; debt of the excess profits repeal and the substitution of an additional fivo percent tax on corporations will Income treasury experts have estimated that corporations will pay approximately $150,000,000 less during the next fiscal year, under this revision than they would under the present lay. Corporations Returns Less , Allowing for the expected shrinkage in corporation returns as a result of business depression, treasury officers have figured that the corporations would pay $900,000,000 in the fiscal . year 1923, under the present law and approximately $750,000,000 under the proposed revision. With the revslon effective as of last January 1. it is estimated that the return would be $748,000,000, all as income-tax, and with it effective as of next January 1, it would be $754,500,000, of which $562,000,000 would be income tax and $192,500,000 excess profits tax. The estimated returns from the corporations for this fiscal year is $1,125,000 so that it is figured that there will be a natural shrinkage of nearly a quarter of a million dollars.

FOLLOW ESSENTIALS BY CHRIST, JANNEY Declaring that the Christian church has made a mistake in following the theological system set up by St. Paul rather than the essentials taught by Christ, Dr. O. Edwards Janney, of Baltimore, delivered the first address in connection with the Indiana Yearly meeting of Hicksite Friends in North A Street Friends Church, Sunday afternoon Dr. Janney showed the contrast be tween the theological systems of vari-j ous churches and the Society of Friends, and said the Friends stood closest to the principles of conduct and action enunciated by Jesus Christ, because they insisted on the essential facts of Christianity. He said Christions should seek religious experiences in the light of Christ rather than by the theological system of St. Paul. Faithfulnes to the inward vision of truth and duty and to the accuracy of that enlightment, Dr. Janney said, would exalt mankind and lead it upward. Separations and creeds would be fewer and schisms would not exist if men and women went back to Christ's teachings rather than to St. Paul's doctrine. The Rev. William J. Sayers of Muncie was the principal speaker last night. He pleaded for an appreciation of the work of others, asserting that Lincoln and Roosevelt were great, not because they discounted the efforts of others, but because they appreciated them and were able to utilize them for the good of society. "We need less - "1 - ""'" uiius, c wm, mu more genuine regard and utilization of the excellence in-the civilization of ! our day." NICHOLSON SPEAKS ON REPORTED UNREST Discussing the communication received from Whitewater Friends Fairmount and Winchester Quarterly meetings, relative to reported unrest, read Monday morning in Indiana Yearly meeting, Timothy Nicholson said: "No one with authority has attacked our stand. Why need we reaffirm our faith in the discipline? I don't object to reaffirming but it may shake the faith of some Friends as to whether our stand is lijght. The Indiana Yearly meeting has never taken any other stand that that in the Richmond declaration of faith. Ancil E. Ratliff was elected presiding clerk, Isadore Wilson was named recording clerk.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

SILESIAN QUESTION IS THRESHED OUT BY LLOYD GEORGE, BRIAND (By Associated Press) PARIS, Aug. 8 Consultations relative to the upper Sileslan question took place here today between the heads of various government delegations to the meeting of the supreme allied council, preliminary to the first session of the council this afternoon. It was hoped to present at the first meeting of the body the views of France, Great Britain and Italy, which have been divergent thus far. Prime Minister Lloyd George of Great Britain dined with Premier j Briand last night and later the two statesmen had a long conference. It was assumed that an attempt was made by them to adjust the conflicting positions of their governments relative to Upper Silesia so that the work of the supreme council might be expedited. ' " This morning's meeting of the council was not held, as planned, because Premier Bonomi of Italy had not arrived in time to participate in it. May Split District It is understood that Great Britain would solve the Silesian problem by awarding the districts of Pless and Rybnik to Poland, and it is said Prime Minister Lloyd George has expressed apprehension that any other solution of the question would create in Upper Silesia a new Alsace-Lorraine. France, on the other hand, would draw the frontier between Poland and Germany along the Oder river, it being asserted by French experts that such an award to Poland would be in line with the result of the plebiscite held in Upper Silesia. Would Take Middle, Course Italy represents what might be called a middle ground, suggesting that the frontier be placed east of the Oder river, but giving to Poland more than the small portion of the mining district in the southeastern quarter of the country, where the Poles showed a clear majority In the plebiscite. Interest in the meeting of the council was intensified by the presence of George Harvey, the United State ambassador to Great Britain, who came to Paris to act as American representative. When Premier Bonaml arrived at the Lyon station zi 10:25 o'clock, he was received by Pr?mier Briand. TOURISTS AT GLEN REPRESENT 8 STATES Nine parties from eight states of the union took advantage of the parking facilities in Glen Miller park Sunday night. Members of the group stated that the fame of the Richmond parking grounds had spread all over the country and was highly recommended by all tourists who had spent the night here. Those parking at the Glen Sunday were Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Clark. Arizona to Germantown, Pa.; Mr. and Mrs. Charles Mather, Pennsylvania to California; Mjss Helen Morgan and James Morgan, Anita. Ia. to Wheeling, W. Va.; Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Presley, Maryland to Missisippi; H. E. Gonelly and family and H. M. McLane from Chicago to Zanesville; Mr. and Mrs. E. J.

Chicago to Mayville, Ky.; Mr. and Mrs. William Schloghaufer and Mr. and Mrs. George Rothbauer, Chicago to Rochester, N. Y.; and Frank Morgan and family from Frankfort to Washington, D. C. Heart Problems Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of 16. Not long ago my sister and I met three boys. They began calling on us One called on my sister and one on my friend and the other one called on me, or rather made dates to meet us at our friend's house. One night he asked when he could see me again and I asked him to come to my house. He said he would, but he never came and he has only been here once since. I never forgave him for breaking that promise, although he was always respectable when in my presence and I liked him .very well. I only met him occasionally after that and always accidentally. The boy who was going with my girl friend is now going with me He didn't like my friend. He has broken a few engagements and I do not like him for it. He always says he forgot. He and his friend called last night and he came in his working clothes and when we entered the house they did not remove their caps. I consider that either a mark of disrespect or extreme ignorance. I would like to tell them about It, but I was at a loss for words to express my indignation. f They are coming up again soon. Will you piease aavise me wnai to say n they repeat the offense? HELEN UNDECIDED. It is a bad thing for the young men to "forget" to keep their engagements with you. I should think you would eive them up for some more depend able friends unless they, change for the better. The incident about the caps was small, but significant. The young men are either ignorant of the courtesy or else they think it is an affecta tion. Some men have neglected good manners until they are self-con scious and afraid to do tne tnings which are considered courteous. You might say that you are in the habit of having gentlemen remove their hats when they call at your home. Babe Rath Clouts Out His 41st Home Run (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Aug. 8.

Troubadors who strummed guitars and in mellow tenor voices informed the world that "love will find a way" would have found inspiration for their music could they have read the story of the marriage of Myron R. Bone, a former Purdue university student, and Miss Gladys Johnson of Lafayette. The story of Mr. Bone's marriage to Miss Johnson, despite numerous difficulties, has just been received hero from Cuba. Mr. Bone is employed on a sugar plantation owned by an American firm at Guano, Oriente, Cuba. Miss Johnson came from the states for a visit with the wife of the superintendent of agriculture. She and Mr. Bone had been friends throughout their childhood days and they enacted the tableaux of "Long Parted Friends Reunited." Rides through the Cuban cane fields followed the reunion and then came the decision to get married. It also was decided that the ceremony should be performed without delay. Mr. Bone and Miss Johnson having reached this .decision then began to improve another of the old sayings "love laughs at locksmiths." They went to Santiago to be married and there were informed by the American consul that the marriage bans must be published for two weeks in order to comply with Cuban law. Two weeks was too long to wait, and Mr. Bone obtained emergency passports to Jamaica, succeeded in getting the vise of the British consul, engaged steamer passage and held up the sail ing for an hour and by evening was enroute to Kingston.' At Kingston, with the aid of two American vice consuls Bone obtained a special license from the governor of Jamaica approved by the colonial secretary. In the presence of the vice consul he was married by a Methodist minister at the minister's home, and later received a marriage ceritficate with seals and ribbons "issued by authority of the government of the U. S. A.'" Mr. Bone formerly lived in this city. He was with the Associated Press staff in Indianapolis until he resigned to accept the position which he now holds in Cuba. Miss Johnson is the daughter of William W. Johnson, clerk of Tippecanoe county. She also is a graduate of Purdue university.

French remains the language spoken by the inhabitants, Go Through Old Rites King George, who on this ocassion assumed his old title of Duke of Nor mandy, was received both at Guern-i sey and here with quaint old-time ceremonial. Royal fifeholders knelt before him and swore fealty in precisely the sanvr manner as did their ancestors to William the Conqueror on the eve of the Norman invasion. Tenures of lanl were confirmed by offerings such as a pair of gilt spurs or a brace of wild ducks. In Guernsey, the seigneurs of Rozel and of Des Augries are enjoined by their tenures to ride into the water up to the saddle girths and carry their duke to land. R. Lempriere and Major J. F. Giffard, the present-day holders of these seigneuries, so far conformed to ancient usage as to meet. the king at the water's edge. King in Jovial Mood "Where are your ropes?" asked the king banteringly, as he greeted them "I am afraid, sire, this water would be too deep to ride into." replied Mr. Lempriere. "Ah," said the king, "the world has moved a good deal since that old duty was imposed." HOW 'IZZY' DETECTS LIQUOR IN NEW YORK (By Associated Press) NEW YORK. Aug. 8 Another Einstein is capturing space in newspaper columns. This time it is not the learned propounder of the theory of relativity, but one of New York's most zealous fed eral prohibition enforcement agents. His name is "Izzy," and not a liquor raid Is complete without him, for he always supplies a unique touch to pro ceedings. For "Izzy" has it all over famous detectives of fiction for disguises. He is the most disguised man in New York. One day "Izzy" is a very old feeble man, seeking just a little drop to bol ster up his declining years. Another time he bobs up in a saloon attired as a motorman and thirsty after his long runs. And again he is a golfer, searching for the ephemeral 19th hole. Sometimes he just "sniffs out" concealed spirits. It's all in a day's work with "Izzy." but he does object to photographers, particularly when they catch him without his diguises.

MOROCCO TRIBESMEN - APPEAR IN FORCE AT SPANISH STRONGHOLD (By Associated Press) LONDON. Aug. 8. Moroccan tribesmen, who two weeks ago signally defeated Spanish troops in northeastern Morocco and who have been pressing their advantage since that time, are reported to have appeared in force before Melilla, the last stronghold of the Spanish in that section of the country. It is asserted that panic reigns in the city and that civilians are seeking safety on board ships in; the harbor. i Uncertainty surrounds the fate of General Navarre and several hundred men who were reported last week to have been surrounded by Moors on Mount Arruit Madrid advices indicate the fear in official quarters there that General Navarre's forces have been annihilated.

Spanish soldiers have been landed on the Moroccan coast southeast of Melilla, where they are under protection of the guns of warships, but it would no appear they have made any serious advance against the right flank of the Moorish army advancing upon Melilla.

CRITICIZE SPANISH PROTECTIVE TARIFF (By Associated Press) MADRID, Aug. 8 The protective features of the present Spanish tariff and of the proposed new tariff meas ures are criticised by the Revista Industeia Y Financiers in an article today, the newspaper declaring that the backwardness of Spanish industry is due to the mistaken protective policy. Because of this policy, the newspaper asserts, the industrial and commercial interests of Spain do not organize themselves on a basis of cheap production, but contend themselves with asking the government to protect them through the tariff.

GERMANS LAY PLANS -TO WIN 60 PER CENT OF WORLD'S TRADE (By Associated Press BERLIN, .Aug. 8. German export manufacturers are laying plans to win control of 60 per cent of the world's commerce by the time the war Indemnity is liquidated and to do this, which they consider essential if Germany is to meet promptly her obligations to former enemy countries and remain economically sound, "feelers" have been put out for negotiations for extensive credit loans in virtually every country once interested or now attracted by German trade possibilities. The German manufacturers, who are understood to be closely co-operating in plans to launch the campaign for

world commerce, are hoping for specia! agreements with American manufacturers which would not take into consideration in any appreciable manner the proposal of the American Finance Trade Corporation to establish a $1,000,000 buying fund in the United States for Teutons. Make Overtures.' Already a number of tentative agreements have been made between German and American firms "on pre-war acquaintance and post-war money values." but the fluctuating mark and the high cost of the' dollar have rendered any large deals on a strictly cash basis out of the question. The delay in declaring the state of war between the two countries at an end also has embarrassed manufacturers in both countries, and even now, that peace had been declared, the situation is uncertain because it is believed many weeks must elapse before the nationals of either country know approximately what the new relations will be. The Germans are placine their nrincipal hope for favorable relations with American concerns in a scheme by which they would act as "European agents" for the Americans, and would manufacture in Germany raw materials sent from the United States and sell these manufactured goods to the Americans' customers here on a percentage basis. This scheme already has been proposed to certain American manufacturers. SMALL IN CAPITAL. RETURN IS SURPRISE (Bv Associated Press) SPRINGFIELD, 111., Aug. 8. Governor Small, acompanied by his son.
