ed. He said that he believed it would
be for the best interests of all con-

wise to allow the commission to be
entirely. partisan.

Governor Weeks in reply said that
hercould not tell anything about it as
yet. as no bill had been passed and
it was impossible to tell at this 'time
what would be done. He could assure
the delegation, however, that it such
a commission was created, he. would
give their request due consideration.
He said further that he had some ap-
pointments to make in the near fu-

vote. Mr. Hill‘s speech attracted much
attention. because of his membership
on the ways and means committee
and his close friendship for President
Taft, both the president and the come
111ittee favoring the amendment. Mr.
Hill returned from Connecticut this
morning and went to the White House
and, it is reported. talked over the
special tax question for some time
with Mr. Taft. in his speech Mr. Hill
said in part:

"i shall vote against this amend
ment for the. following reasons. In
the first place, i do not believe that
this extra session of congress was
called to completely change and rave
lutlonlsc the taxation ‘systcm of the
United States. i think that a question
of such magnitude should be. submit-
ted to thcpeople and discussed in a
campaign preparatory to the presenta-
tion of so important a matter as an
amendment to the constitution of the
United States. This proposition was
found in the ilemoorutic platform and
not'lu the Republican platform on
which the presidential campaign of
-lit08 was Won. My understanding is
that congress was called together for
the sole purpose of revising the Dlnii-
iey tariff law on the basls of the dif-
ference in the cost of production at
home and abroad. anti so far as the
house is concerned 1111 honest attempt
has been made to do'that. l 1oted in
1tl1c pays and means committee for a
'supplerncnt to that reunion in the
Ishape of 1111 Inheritance tax. My
judgment was then, and is now. that
it was not nccessury. i am a firm
tllt‘ll0\'i‘l' that in times of peace the
revenues of this country should I111

term! rcvcmre taxes, and that if thosi'
are not sufficient, as prudent people.
\1'1~ ought to reduce our expenses to
11 point where they will be covered by
such rcvcuucs. and yet, under all the
circuurstarrccs. and realizing that the
inheritance tax would llt'lll‘ hardly
upon the people of 1111' state, i voted
for an inheritance tax.

"i do not know now but that I
may ultimately vote for n corportr
tion tax. My mind Is not yet made
11p on that question. i shall not vote
‘I'or 1111 income tax. i agree with the

when it comes to a question of cur

would cut the expenses of thc gov

Ithat such a meteor is not sullltieut

"Stop a moment and consider what
we are doing in voting to give this
government the power to lay an i11-
come tax in time of peace. i know
of no better measure of the way in
which this burden would full on the
various states in the Union than to
judge of It by the inheritance tux had
to meet the expenses-of the Spanish
American War. for the last income
tax that was collected from our peo-
ple was back in the Civil War period
and conditions have mightily chang-
ed sincs then; but we did have an
inheritance tax on 1000 to 1902. The
last full year of that tax allowed as
follows: The. state of New York paid
911508.000 of it: the collection district
of. Connecticut and Rhodc Island
0060.000; the state of Pennsylvania.
8641.000; the state of Massachusetts,
$559,000; the state of lllinois, Mr.
Speaker, paid 8325;000; making all
told in those five collection districts
$3,795,000 that was raised out of a
total of 84.842.000 in the last full
year of this tax. so that of the entire
amount collected from the inheri-
tanco tax in the whole liuion six
states paid threefour'ths of it.

“Let me give you a more startling
illustration than that. Take the col-
lection district which i have the hon-
or to represent in part. the revenue
omce being located in Hartford and
the collection district including Con
necticut and Rhode island. That dis-
trict paid $660, 753 of that inheritance
tax in the year ending June 110.1902
How many other states did it. take
to equal that amount? Permit 1111-
to name them to you. They are as

the treasury to the finance committee
for investment. As under the char-
ter of the order, which was issued in

The selection of securities to bc pur-

rests entirely with the finance com-

Ono of the matters discussed with
much interest at Mondays meeting
was the progress of the $500. 000 fund
for the Catholic University at Wash-
ington. ll. C from the members of
the order all over the country. This
fund is to establish fifty scholarships
at said university for sons of mem-
bers of the order. More than half has
been pledged to date. and the balance.
according to the opinion of Supreme
Knight licnru, will be raised within
60 days. Each member contributes
32. 50 in the average.

There is some anticipation in the or-
der as to who will succeed Supreme
Knight Edward L. Hearn. who when
his term expires in August will not be
a candidate again for that omce. it
is thought that James A. Flaherty. of
Philadelphia now deputy supreme
knight. probably will be elected in his
place.

Mr. ilcnrn. according to his own
