' " - v DEMOCRATIC RECORD Philadelphia Press. - . , It" is , not "surprising that the Demo cratic members of the. Fnancial Com mittee of the j United Estates Senate found themselves in a position which they did 'not like when they met to determine the question of taxation to meet present "conditions. From .'the House of Representatives there had come, "by rvirtue of their party vote a measure which provided revenue along a new. arid a dangerous line. For -the first time the' question of "excess profits" has been raised, and once that door is open . there is opportunity" for all manner of financial burdens to en ter therein.. " " , ' r .In protest against such a govern mental policy there appeared represen Natives : of the principal industries ox the 'country. ; Froih: the business .men of the nation came an appeal hot to raise income by a system of taxation which penalized thrift " and success. There was no politics in the protest! ; It ; was : against ; a ; Democratic' ad ministration, but against a principle "o1 taxation which is regarded as unfair in the present and an inevitably great er handicap"to business in the future; For it is regarded as certain that once this system' of raising money is fast ened upon , the country,1 albeit in; a comparatively mild form at the " pre sent time, if will constantly be made more burdensome , as , pc.cosion' comes for more Go vernTns evdhue. Senate be , obtained somewhere, somehow. There is a big deficit. The .revenues are not-keeping up-with even the orT dinary expenses, to say nothing of the unusual expenditures that coridi- rH0n .-::-;.-:i:not time. left in the session to endeavor, to get up a new system in the State. The result would be merely that no money would be provided. . The House i waited so long in its floundering as to what it shold'do, it changed itsrnind and its plans so often; that now the Senate must accept the scheme that the House finally adopted whether it will or not. AH that it can do at this late day is to make a few changes and to make : it less ambigo.us.-in its pro visions. It cannot change the prin ciple nor the scope. - ; So the: result will be. the imposition of a steady growing burden of inter nal taxation upon the people of s.the United States and the appropriation in that process of sources of. revenue that belong to the States or that shou-. Id - only be available by . the Govern ment in times of national stress and abnormal conditions. Even . after all possible taxes have been imposed "to which this Congress , dares to resort, a bond isse will be necessary to cover the . treasury deficit already in sight. That it may be difficult, if not im possible, to dispose of Government bonds bearing a low rate bf interest, fn a ;time : when there-?are many op portunities for r investment : bringing much - larger returns ; is f : something which . the financial blunderers ; at Washington apparently have riot con sidered. - :' . : '.' However, that is but an incident in the whole blundering scheme. It was clearly pointed out in the report of the" Republican members of the Ways and Means Committee that the inher itance and the excess profits taxes proposed in the revenue bill consti tute unwarranted invasion of the tax ing field, which belongs primarily to the States ; also that the entire bill is: an extreme measure which would not have been necessary if there, had been adherence to a sane - tariff pol icy. hi .this opinidn there will be general: agreement and one that" will extend for beyond party lines. There is a large body of Democrats who are disgusted with the mess which their party leaders in" Congress have -nince of the country's fihane The extra? vaganceiand inefficiency of that party in Congress have brought about the. i deficit. - Then they proceed . to make upiihis deficit by; taxation that is uriV warranted and unfair. f - AMERICANS WERE NOT N " .;: DETAINED; S A Yg, BERLIN;" - Berlin, Tuesday Feb. io.--viaSay- ville, Feh. :!1.A11. the reports about American"; consuls ' and consular of3-r : cers detained by force Jrf Germany ' are , malicious inventions," just as were y so' many other reports we have rhad during the last fewweeks,' said a prominent German: official to a staff - members ' of Overseas News agency service today.

"Almost all the American consuls' ' took advantage of this offer and the ' majority - of them have already jr- rived in Munich and will, leave on the 2Sth, by- way of Lindau.
