Committees in Congress are tasked with a specific element of American society to study, organize, or provide information on. One of the standing (aka permanent) committees is the Joint Committee on Taxation. This committee consists of members of both the House of Representatives and the Senate. In this committee, members from both parts of Congress meet in order to try to simplify the tax code and investigation the operation/effectiveness of the internal revenue taxes. These individuals work together to accomplish these goals and possibly change a current tax related structure so that it could be simpler.

Explanation:
The Pariz Peace Conference of 1919 was a conclave in which the victorious powers of World War I met to outline the conditions under which the peace that would conclude said conflict would be signed. These four nations were America, Britain, France and Italy, who had different positions, ambitions and requirements.
