Berlin. March 15.-Herr Wermuth
chief burEomaster OF the city OF Berlin
has every reason to feel satisfied at
present for, in order to carry through
the new army bill and provide money
to meet the enormously increased ex-
pense, the government Will undoubted-
~ nave to adopt tho plan which he
advocated. and which brought about his
political downfall.
Until year ago Herr Werruth was
the all-powerful Minister of Finances
OF the empire. He fell because he in
sisted that part OF the burden OF the
new taxation 10 meet the new naval
and military increases should be paid
By those who inherited large fortunes
and those who had large incomes. In
other words, he urged the necessity of
an inheritance and income tax but his
suggestion aroused the furious indig
nation OF the conservative parties, the
Inillionaires and the large estate own
ers, who claimed that II was an in
suit or the part of the Minister Of FL
nance TO propose that citizens who al
ready had such great responsibilities
as the possession OF wealth carries with
Il should carry their special part OF the
increased burden OF taxes.
81 present the memory Of the down
fall OF Herr Wermuth causes consid-
ara BILE anxiety. II is an indsputable
fact that even as matters stand az pres
emit there Will be an imperial annual
deficit OF S25.oeo,o00 during the next
four or five Years If the new military
bills are passed this annual deficit will
be at least S75.0oo.o00. Where is the
money TO come from? Those who have
to pay, cannot do So as they have al
ready been stripped to the shirt and
those who are able TO pay refuse to
do so.
This is the present situation in a
nutshell. The question is now whether
1t Will be thought necessary TO bring
forward the hated inheritance and
graduated income tax which Herr Wcr-
muth demanded more than year ago.
or whether the government will at

defeat the government
y German Imperial Chancellor, OF
course, does not resign because he has
suffered defeat in the Reichstag. as
he would have 10 do in the parlia-
mentary states but experience has
shown that the Kaiser demands from
his chancellors that they must be able
to handle the Reichstag. When they
