NASUINGTON. Aug 31.-Great

lised the United States Informally
that they would look with disfayor on
the purchase by this government Of
/ German merchant steamers to relieve
conditions growing out OF the Euro

PLAN STAMP TAX ON
SOFT drinks ALSO
CLAIM SOFT DRINKS AS
MUCH A LUXURY AS
WHISKEY.
Also Consider Taxing Railroad
Tickets and Tickets to All
AmuSements.

WASHINGTON. Aug 31.-A stamp
tax on soft drinks as well as beer and
patent medicines is contemplated by
members Of the house ways and means
committee, which is preparing an
emergency internal revenue bill to off
set treasury losses due 60 CuTtailments
OF imports. II is urged that soft
drinks are as much Injuries "a wines
or beer and that an equitable distribu-
ton OF the tax burden among all con-
sumers would be accomplished by this
plan.
Another suggestion is stamp tax
OF or 10 per cent ON railroad tickets
and admission to theatres, baseball
parks aud other licensed amuscmeuts,
II is estimated that from $4,000. 900
to SSO,OOO,OO0 could be raised in this
way.
The committee has not yet deter
mined upon a complete taxation plan.
but proposes to hasten its delibera
lions so "A bin may be introduced soon
after President Wilson addresses con-
gress on the subject which probably
Will be Immediately upon his return
from New Hampshire. Administra-
ton leaders are impreSseG with the
necessity Of quick action i'm order to
disturb business conditions as little az
possible.
Democrats of the senate will discuss
the emergency in party caucus to be
held later this week
A doubling Of the present tax on
beer, 1t is estimated by treasury eX-
rerts. would produce $4,000, 600.
Some committee members. however,
feel that taxation Of commodities
other than beer and patent medicines
would cause less popular friction.
Among the committee Democrats
there has been some opposition to any
war tax at all at this session, the con-
tention being that there is plenty Of
available money for present needs
