The question uppermost In the
n1inds of those interested in education
ust now, is the, proposed slash of the
chool fund. I do not know how the
aiurens delegation stands on this
reat issue, but I do know hat they
hould consider the wishes of thekr
onstituents and come out squarely
in favor of all appropriations which
vill enrich andl improve the finance of
lie common schools of the state, there
)y enriching and improving the
mowledge of the hundreds of children
>f the state. The cidii(iren of the rural
listricts want a square deal and the
ountry schools want justice, but
ieither call be secured if the appro
riations for the common schools are
ut.
It should he remembered that ap
>ropriations for the education of the
-outh of today is not an expenditure,
mt ati inve.tment by tile state that
vill yield uitold results in progress,
tdvalecllent and development.

Sales Tax Favored.
Washington, Feb. 22.--The financing
of the s.oldier bonus by means of a
manufacturers' or wholesalers' tax
was discussed in what 'was described
as a "general sort of way" at two ses
rionQ today of the 'Republican members
of the house ways and means commit
tee dealing with this subject. It was
announced that there would be no fur
ther sessions until Friday and mem
bcr.s indicated that there was no dis
psltilon to hurry a decision.
Representative Lngworth, ranking
member of the special committee, said
it was his judgment that a gentral
manufacturers' and 'wholesalers' tax
similar to that in force in Canada
would be recommended. He hought
the rates would be lower than thosc
in Canada as treasury exiperts had es
timated that the Canadian rates, i]

yield $580,000,000 year, or more thax
$200,000,000 in excess of the amouni
which it has been estimated will b
needed to fluance the cash payments t(
the former service men.
Mr. Longworth said he did not thint
the bonus bill would be ready for thi
house this week or next. 1He state(
that there was some disposition or
the part of many house members t(
postpone action . the measure foi
a time to await the opening of refund
lig negotiations betiween the Unitec
States and the debtor nations. 'Callinj
attention that the refunding commis
sion had been appointed by the presi
dent, the Ohio member said there was
reason to believe that before July th<
Inited States would have some of th<
refunded bonds in hands.
The president, Mr. Longthworth weni
Ion to say, undoubtedly would not b(
opiiosed to the sale of some of th<
foreign bonds .in this country to ob.
tain money for the bonus. lie adde(
that before this could be done con
gress would have to enact a law giv
ing authority to the secretary of th
treasury to so dispose of the securitie,
as the presCit law provides that hi
must use them in retiring a part o:
the public debt.
The Ohio member said the presiden
was opposed to the enactment of honu:
legislation without any provision foi
raising the funds. If the propose(
sales tax iprovision was be- it in thi
house, lie added, the bill th n wouk
simply be a charge against the treas
ury. It was his opinion that if ,
sales tax were reported the hous
would be given an opportunity to vot<
separately on that tax.
A separate vote unas been demandeu
by opponents of a sales tax who con
tinued today to tighten their Lines fo
the fight that is now regarded on al
sides as almost certain. Opponent:
said if necessary there will -be a figh
all along the line, from the ways ani
means commnittee, to the party con
ference, to the rules committee an
finally to the house. They did no
think the fight would last that lon
but continued to circulate ipeition
among house members.
