With Optimistic Message on
Work of Coming Year
30,000 ARE ON HALF TIME
School bells clanged throughout the
city today calling at least 2.10,000 boys
and girls of the city to their studies in
the public schools.
They returned with happy, tanned
faces, which told n story of sunlit
strenms and wooded dells, now but n
fleeting memory as school desks and
neat piles of books loomed ahead.
Most of them were happy because
the schools nowadays, especially those
of this city, have everything In the way
of appointments nnd convenience which
makes study a pleasure Instead of a
task.
Uoonis flooded with light, brightly
painted walls, comfortable seats nnd i
best of all cheery, optimistic teachers
who extended the hand of comrndeslilp
made the school opening a cheerful
event.

There mar have been a few who re
turned with reluctance who might have
wished that their particular school '

And it should be borne in mind that
they suffered a double blow so far ns

public baths dosed ns the schools
opened.
Of the 2.10 schools, including elcmen
tnry and high, which opened today, all
arc reported to be in tirst-clnss condi
tion. During the summer they hnve
been overhauled from cellar to roof,
and even a professional pessimist will
hnve a hard job finding fault.
30.000 on Half-Time
Of course, more schools ore needed o

proximately .'10.000 children would be
placed on half-time. Plans are under
way for remedying this condition and
before the present sihonl year is over
more than tin re-fourths of these will he
on a full-time schedule.
Hefore the end of the present month.
It Is predicted, the attendant will be
increased by several thousand, as there

Three new junior high schools were
opened, which with the Oliver Wendell

The great criticism of the manufac

The manufacturer w II pass on the tax
to the jobber bv iddlns I1 the pilee of
the article a sum nt least equal to the
tax he will hnve to pay. The jobber
will take 11 profit on tlio cost of the

the eoneiumer will pay not only tho tax,

By the Associated Press
Washington, Sept. ft. The whole
subject of tnx dcvlslon wnH up for dis
cussion today between Secretary Mellon
nnd the Senate Finnnco Committee.
The committee had before It the orig
inal suggestions mndo to tho House
Wnys nnd Means Committee by the
Treasury Secretary, tho revised cstl
mntes presented after the White House
tnx conference Inst month nnd tho tnx
bill as passed by the House.
Mr. Mellon went before the commute
without n prepnred stntement, but rendy
to nnswer specific questions on any of
those subjects.
For use nt the conference nnd the fu
ture Information of the committee
Treasury experts had prepnred tnblcs
showing estimated receipts from various
sources of tnxatlon ns well as Govern
ment expenditures. These were to be
made public nfter the conference, which
was behind closed doors.
After hearing the Secretary the Sen
ntn minmittee will begin Its task of re
writing the House bill. It has been
engaged for ten days in considering
each section nnd hearing n detailed ex
planation from Dr, T. H. Adams, Treas
ury tnx expert. Decisions on the
House proposals have been withheld
pending tho discussion with Mr. Mellon.
The biggest cut the Budget Bureau
will be called upon to execute upon de
partmental estimates of Government
expenditures for tho next fiscal year
will affect the figures of the Navy De
partment, it was learned yesterday. The
nnvy, it is understood, is the worst of
fender iimong Federal agencies in de
manding more than it can reasonnbly
hope to receive unless the forthcoming
Armaments Conference ends in utter
failure.
Although budget nnd nnvy officials
declined to disclose the ninounts asked
for by the navy and other departments
it was 1 scertained that Secretary
Denby's staff believes the nnvy should
hnve many more millions than the
S-IliO.OOO.OOO appropriated for the pres
ent fiscal year.
Senator Calder. of New York, today
pxiilnlned to President Harding his pro
posal for inclusion iu the bill of n tax
on distilled spirits and beer. Senator
Calder said he would propose amend
ments to levy n tnx of $(!.4o per gallon
on dltillcd spirits nnd $." per barrel
on 11.75 per cent alcohol beer. i These
new tnxes, Senator Calder estimated,
would raiso 9175.000,000 and enable
the Finance Committee to solve a hard
problem in Its revenue-raising work.
President Harding's advice regarding
the tax was not sought by Senator
Calder. who merely explained his plan
to the Kxecutive before offering It for
mally In the Finance' Committee.
Senator Calder said that 0,000.000
gallons of distilled spirits w-pre with
drawn from bonded warehouses during
the lat year, paying the present indus
trial alcohol tax of only .fL'.UO per
gallon,
"Ninety per cent of this was used for
beverage purposes and Should have paid
the beverage tnx which was paid by
consumers, snid Senator Calder.

Plumber Discovers Watch Gone'
From Place Where It Was
The futility of proverbs In a pinctl
cal philosophy is more or less er
proverbial But there are folks who
take the proerbs literally and devoutly,
believing without question that ft
stitch heie saves moro hence nnd that
a penny saved is a transaction 111 a
subtler form of finance.
Such n trusting soul is Horace
Hraun, of I.ansdowne. Horace is a
plumber, for the moment out of a iob,

whose precept would help him get it.

Horace rushed to the lhirty-ninth

there lecounted, among other things, a

attentively and wrote Horace s name

Then Hnrnco hurried back to where

Asks How Note on Separate Treaty
Would Be Received
Paris, Sept. S. -(By A. P ) The
American State Department has ninde
unofficial inquiry of the French Gov
ernment, It is nunounccd, as to how it
would receive an officinl note respecting
recognition of the German-American
treaty.
It is probable there has been n
mistranslation or miscinterprelation
in Paris of the American informative
communication on the German
American treaty. A treaty, of course,
does not depend for its validity on
recognition by n third Government,
but on the sovorelgu Powers of the
states concluding it. A request for
recognition of n compact between
sovereign states would be something
new in international relations, unless
it meant nn invitation to iidhere to
or be bound by its provisions, which
the United States hardly would ask
of France, a signatory of the Ver
sailles Treaty. A Government may,
of course, at tho risk of amicable re
lations, object to n treaty between
other Powers or mny approve It gen
erally, but governmental declarations
of that nature arc rare.
