London, Sept. miss Elsa Br1stow'
of Des Moines, Iowa, who sent
couple of days helping wounded Brit
ish soldiers on the continent, arrived
in London this afternoon. She brought
letters from number of the English
fighters to their families in this cou1-
try.
Speaking of her experience, Miss
Bristow said that from all the reports
she had heard the British soldiers
fought to the last, inhicting terrible
losses on the Germans. The English
men had with them German trophies
from the field of battle, showing that
there must have been close fighting.
Reinforcements which Miss Bristow

MAY PUT STAMP TAX
ON SOFT DRINKS
As Well as Beer And Patent
Medicines. lnternation a
Reuenue Bill Being Prepared
By Ways And Means Com
nlittee

WASHINGTON, Sept "A stamp tax
on soft drinks as well as beer and pat
ent medicines is contemplated by mem
ters of the House Ways and Means
committee, which is preparing an
emergency internal revenue bill to
offset temporary treasury losses due
to crrtailment of imports. 1t is urged
that soft drinks are as much luXuries
as wines or beer, and that an equita-
lie distribution of the tax burden
among all consumers would be accom-
plished by this plan.
Another suggestion is a stamp tax
of 5 or 10 per cent. on railroad tickets
and admission to theatres, baseball
parks and other licensed amusementS.
1t is estimated that from $50,000,000
to $SO,O00,O0O could be raised in this
way.
The committee has not yet determin-
ed upon complete taxation plans, but
purposes to hasten its deliberations so
that a bill may be introduced soon
after President Wilson addresses con-
gress on the subject, which probably
will be Immediately upon his return
from New Hampshire. Administration
leaders are impressed with the neces-
sity of quick action in order to disturb
conditions as little as possible.
Democrats of the senate will dis
cuss the emergency in party caucus
to be called later this week.
A doubling of the present tax on
beer, it is estimated by treasury ex-
perts, would produce $6,000000. 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
contention being that there is plenty
of available money for present needs.
