Tho motion nns so framed that In rejecting tho Increased letter instate the Senate at the same time agreed Vb the Pittance Committee amendment al lowing American soldiers and sailors abroad M mall leuera ireo ot iroaiaKc. 'Following; tho rejection of first-class pstal rates Senator Weeks, of Massachu situ, urged the elimination also of tho Mcond-class postal rates aimed at liens Mspers and masaxlnes. ."When we talk about giving a subsidy to . publication, whoso fault Is It?" Senator Weeks said. '"Undoubtedly the fault. If there I"! such, tails with Congress, because Congress es tablished the rate and has not changed it Now, having permitted a great business to lie developed under this condition. Is It fair tr reasonable to take the time when the Industry Is laboring under tho heaviest pos sible burdens to commence to change It? I. say no, and that Is the reason why I op pose all of .these propositions. "1 am going to submit to the Senate n W figures relating to the varied publlca Jons to show that nny of the proposed ac tions will virtually ruin a largo part of the press. In fact, It Is doubtful If the rub Vcatlons of the United States, under pres ent conditions, taking them by and large, jre netting a new dollar for nn old one. ' "This Is due to tho abnormal Increases In the cost of eer thing which publishers must Use and to their Inability to pass along to the consumer these nddltlonal costs. 'I hey relate to labor. Ink, presses, tpo and every ether article which a publication must ue, but more particularly to the cot of print paper, which varies greatly In price Some paper manufacturer have not materially Increased their Felling price and others some of the er largo producers hae In creased It so much that It carries a crush ing weight to those who have to use their product, and those publications which have no contracts for their supplies of print paper are having the greatest difficulty in keeping their heads above water livery one. from the President down, who has had oi Is ha IBS anything to do with revenue legislation, has reiterated time and again that taxes should be no leled that they would not materially damage any enterprise This legislation would materially damago a great Industry and, therefore. It should not be passed." LA FOLLr.TTU OFrURS AMENDMENTS Senator J,.i Kolletto Intioduccd eight intendments, proposing Increased rates on war profits. Each of these amendments purposes to strike trom the bill the gradu ated excess profits tax, ns reported b the committee, and to substitute for It a flat tax. Senator I. a Kollette would begin with an amendment of 76 per cent, and If the Senate falls to adopt that ho purposes to offer amendments at lower percentages. The amount of revenue which would bo de rived from each of the I.a Kollette amond- Bents, taking $3,000,000,000 as the basis of ar profits, will be: First At 76 per cent, $2, 800.000.000 Second At 72 per cent, V-UCO.OOO.OOO. Third At 68 per cent. $-'.040,000,000 Fctirth At 64 per cent, $1,020,000,000. Fifth At 80 per cent. J 1.800,000.000. Sixth At BC per cent, $1,680,000,000.

Russian Chiefs Cheer Wilson's Pledge of Aid ntlnoed from rare One , "within and without." and It Is obvious -thorn ho means by enemies within the vhole crew of extremists whose agitations lave nearly wrecked tho whole Husslan trmy and Imperiled the success of tho revo Utlon Itself, together with the German prop Mtandlsts and adherents of the old auto oraey, who are assiduously fomenting dls Jord and division now at Moscow as they Have at Petrograd since the Crar was over Ihrown last February. By the enemy without, the President most clearly means the common enemy of civili zation and peac. tho Imperial German Gov- trnment. This part of the President's message Is not, however, so startling aa his referencs to the "common cause" In which Russia and the United States are "unselfishly united " This can Imply nothing else. It Is declared here, than a reference to peace terms, and la a veritable pledge upon the part of the United States Government that Indemnities for this country are no part of Its purpose, ny more than they are on the part of Rus sia since the old regime was ousted. Pledges of aid by the United States to Hussla are not new. Within the Uot seven Cays concrete evidence of faith and good will was given In the extension of another $100,000,000 credit to the provisional gov ernment, but that part of the message which refers to the common cause and the "enemy Without" Is not so phrased as to give much comfort to the pacifist heart nor to the per son hoping for an Immediate armistice. i Yn ' Premier Kerensky'a speech to the Mos r :."' wv conference has been received with unt.
