BALK
AT FREIGHT TAX
IN REVENUE BILL
Demand of Caucus Forces Un-
derwood to Delay introduce
ton of Measures.
BY tho Associated Press.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 12.-Because
OF Democratic revolt in the House
against the freight tax proposed in
the war revenue bill, Democratic
Leader Underwood today decided TO
await the return of President Wilson
to the capital before introducing the
measure.
Democratic opposition in the House
to the, proposed 5 per cent. tax on
freight transportation grew to such
proportions over night that petition
was circulated among Democratic
members today, demanding a caucus
on the proposed bill for Monday
night.
Southern and Western Democrats
began the caucus petition. The alter
native they propose Is to increase
the tax on beer to 81 a barrel which
would not sos, ,000,0 an increase on
whiskey and other distilled liquors
and probably a tax on automobiles
The slogan of the fight will be tax
the luxuries, not the necessities"
Chairman Underwood heard of the
revolt just before he conferred with
Secretary McAdoo and Postmaster
General Burleson on the bill.

ERA Of WAR OVER,
DECLARES BRYAN
"Europe's Commissions Are the
Death Throes of MiIitarism,"
He Says at Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Sept. 12--Speating
today as the personal representative
of President Wilson, who was unable
to attend, Secretary of State Bryan
declared in an address at THE Star
Spangled Banner celebration that
the war era has ended i'll the United
States, and that the "convulsions
through which Europe Is now pass,
ing are but the death throes of mill
tarisnl."
The subject of Mr.. Bryan's address
was THE Flag and he said that he
found his text in the line with which
the poet closed each stanza of the
national anthem-"O'er the land OF
the free and the home of the brave. .
The development of Anlerica Il
ideals. the secretary said, had brought
with it wider freedom and a new
type of eourage-''a constant growth
in the spirit of brotherhood. The
constitution of the United States, he
declared, had become a pattern cop
led by other nations, and now was to
be seen everywhere the waring of
monarchcial authority and hereditary
power.

FRENCH GENERAL
SAYS GERMANS
CANNOT RECOVER
Gallant, Usually a Sphinx
Turns Prophet and Predicts
Allies Triumph.
By the United Press.

PARIS, Sept. 1.-THE battle Of
Marne marked the high tide of the
German offensive. This was the pre-
diction of General Gallant. He de-
clared that the Germans cannot re-
cover the ground from which they are
being driven { ID that all danger to
Paris is over.
The general, usually a sphinx, was
far from loquacious, but it was very
evident from his manner that he be-
lieves the entire matter was entirely
changed with the advance on Paris.
The German right, under General
Won Kluk, had outstripped it's sup
porting centre in rushing to Provence,
the unexpectedly strong opposition
encountered having held II back
from the north.
General Gallant, realizing that the
centre was holding fast, had no hesi-
fancy in withdrawing his army and
sending It to the east.
Outnumbered two to one, Won Kluk
was in grave danger for a time of
being completely annihilated. AS it
was his army was forced to abandon
much of its supplies, and at certain
points it's retreat assumed the pro-
portions of a rout.
The success that has SO far attended
the army of Grown Prince Frederick
Wilhelm, which has enveloped YER
dun, and in operating south of that
city, is easily explained here. 1t is
pointed out that the Kaiser detailed
as aides to his heir the best strate-
gists in the German army. In adj
dition this army is admittedly the
flower of the great German war ma
chine.
Reports are current here that the
Kaiser in person has been with the
Crown Prince on several occasions
and that at all times he keeps in
direct touch with him. Reports that
the Crown Prince has been detached
from his army and Is en- route to
East Prussia are not credited here.
The work of the French troops Is
now surprisingly fine. The change
from the offensive to the defensive
has had bad effect on the German
personnel. but it has had corre-
spondingly good effect on the French.
The British and French, now that
they are on the offensive, distinctly
outclass the German. Their moves
are far more brilliant and they are
moving at a speed that is admittedly
surprising. Summing up the situa-
tion General Gallant said:
"The German war machine was con-
structed entirely for offensive run
ming. As a result, now that it goes
backward it runs in the reverse di-
rection.'
