WASHINGTON, July 7th.
It is more than ever unlikely that the Ship Subsidy Bill will be passed at this session of Congress. When the President returns to Washington today he will be told by the Senate lenders that politics! reasons make the enactment of the Tarif and Soldiers' Bonus Bills imperative, and that time will be lacking for consideration by the Upper House of the situation of the merchant marine the moru so since opposition to the subsidy clauses of the Bill and the complication introduced by the amendment prohibiting the sale of liquor on American ships would inevit ably protract the debate.

There are even some Republicans who doubt the wisdom of the passage of the Soldiers' Bonus Bill at this time. Mr. Harding has said he would veto it unless in the measure itself means for raising. the necessary revenues were provided, and he has suggested the imposition of a sales This is extremely repugnant to Con- press, and the alternative suggestion" is Dow made that initial cash payments | amounting to, say, $75,000,000 Inomainally twenty-five million sterling] should b made from current revenues, reliance then being had on the receipt of interest ou Allied war debts, and notably on the British payment due in October, to meet subsequent demands. Only by deliberately ignoring the advice of the Secretary of the Treasury. Mr. Mellon, could be a prent accept this suggestion, and this he is unlikely to do. So the possibility of a conflict between him and Congress on the ere of the election, with all that this would involve as affecting the issue at the poils, is added to the perturbations of the politicians.
Senator Borah, of Idaho, truck into. this situation yesterday in a speech of great power and ability. There was not, he said, a single item on the legislative programme which did not increase the taxes of the people of the United States and he referred specially to the soldiers bonus, the ship subsidy, the proposal to create twenty-four new Federal Judges the suggested loan of five million dollars to Libaria--and all this "at a time when the people of the United States are blat to the white, when they are absolutely without money to initiate new enterprises and when the great reclamation projects of the West are standing as they have stood for the last seven or eight years.""
The time will come," he said solemnly, "when the United States "will have to stand, as it were, at the Marne on this question of preserving financial civiliza tion. The time may come when our re- serves, economic and financial, will have to be called upon as our reserve of nian power was called upon in 1917. The nation which will lead in future, which will control and dominate, will not be a tation of armies not amation of naries but a nation of economic power, of, prose perity at home, of Enancial reserves."
He spoke not only of the staggering volume of expenditure contemplated, by legislation, but of its character.
Even
in this comparatively new land of ours we have already reached the era of em-
gratuities, bargoes, subsidies,
and honuses," and the nation whose citizen- ship has thus been "drugged and de- bauched has entered upon a road over which no nation has ever yet beat a sue- cessful retreat" Is there any doubt, be asked, that there is a political revolution on in this country? We may not feel it in all its effects here in Washington, but it has reached us here. The people; are resentful of the fact that promises to lift their burdens have not beca kept... Basiness men are actually borrowing money to pay their taxes. I have examin ed lists in ten of the great agricultural States, and find thousands of farms for sale for taxes.". And it was when such conditions confronted the country that Congress proposed to lay upon is addi tional burdens amounting to nobody knew how many billions.
