nation FOR SOLDIERS
British Premier Tells Mass Meeting
that Though War May Be Long
England Will Win.
PEOPLE NDoRSE GOVERNMENT

London Sept 4-Premier ASQuith, at
great mass meeting today. appealed TO
the men of England TO volunteer for
military service. Despite the rapid en-
listment that has been proceeding since
Lord Kitchener called for an additional
army of COCO men. IL has not been fast
enough TO suit the government. which
recognizes that the conflict will be long.
he said, adding that nearly $4,000 had
enlisted so far.
In concluding his appeal for more vol
'unteers, the premier said:
I'VE are at present watching the early
stages OF what is going to be a pro-
tracted struggle: We must steel ourselves
to the task and persevere to the end.
Two divisions Of magnificent British
Indian troops are en- route TO the front.
Their association with British soldiers
and the Dominion troops will maintain
our flag. which no arms shall ever dis
sever or dishonor."
With the premier on the speakers
stand were A. BOnar Law. CniOnist

BANKERS IN SESSION
ON EXCHANGE PLAN
Work Late Into the Night Clearing
Up Foreign Situation and Pro-
pose a Syndicate.

The committee. headed by James F.
HorEan, president of the First National
Bank Of Chicago. which was appointed to-
day as a reserve at a conference Of the
Treasury Department and directed to
make plan to clear away the difficulties
concerning the present troublesome for
eign exchange situation. worked late into
the night and will resume its sessions to-
day
The conference was between the Fed
eral Reserve Board and the representa-
tives of the clearinghouse associations
from all parts Of the country.
The bankers were practically unani-
nous in the opinion that the United
States must meet its present obligations
TO Europe in gold If it is demanded. No
definite plan was adopted. but a most
encouraging disposition was shown by
the bankers 10 collabOrate in the crea-
ton Of a gold fund to meet the emer-
GeECI. The rerort formulated by tie
committee is to be submitted to the Fed
,TIl '.,scr|" scaru ~ Is Understood
that the committee is working on a plan
which cOntemplates the organization OF =
syndicate which will underwrite a car

Indorsing the action of the government
In vindicating the rights of the small
states Of Europe and supporting the
premier's declaration that the country
should prosecute the war to a victorious
conclusion
Premier Asquith then said further:
The British navy will give time and
means to create the powerful military
force which England must yield before
the struggle is brought to a conclusion
At the end of the contest the British
and their allies will fnd victory and
honor.
THE greatest crime against civiliza-
ton was the sacking of Louvain. This
shameless holocaust was performed in
blind barbarian vengeance. Sooner than
stand aside now the English people would
see England blotted from the pages Of
history.
This cynical violation OF the neutrality
Of Belgium was the first step in a greater
policy to crush freedom and the au-
tonOmy OF free states IN Europe. first
in Belgium. then Holland. then Switzer-
land and then countries like England
would be bent under the yoke"

MARSHALL NOT LIKELY
To SEEK REELECTION
Vice President Said to Have No De-

1916 as Silent as Statuay.
PREFERS HIS LAW PRACTICE
snecial to The Washington Hsrald.

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York. Sept "A Washington dis
patch to the Sun says:
Vice President Thomas Riley Mar
shall probably will not be a candidate
for reelection. This fact has come out
In connection with the Vice President 8
voluntary statement that President Will
son would have no opposition for re-
nomination in 1916
There is reason to believe that the
Vice Presidents statement caused some
uneasiness at the White House. but it
was entirely characteristic Of Mr.. Mar
shall, who is an easy-going Hoosier,
with ideas Of his own and great indie
pendence in expressing them. His state
ment in regard to national politics in
1916 created some surprise and started
considerable speculative gossip. 1t was
suggested that the White House ought to
reciprocate and issue statement saving
that Mr.. Marshall would have no oppo-
sition for denomination.
This suggestion made in a little group
of Democratic statesmen at the Capitol
today brought out the statement from
one of the Vice Presidents close friends
that Mr. Marshall has no intention of
seeking a denomination, and has fire.
quently expressed himself recently as
preferring to be back in Indiana prac-
ticing law.
The Vice President feels that there is
little opportunity afforded by the Vice
Presidents Office for anything more than
the merest sort of routine work. On one
occasion, referring to criticism that had
been uttered against him because of
statements he had made concernin pub
lie questions, Mr.. Marshall said that he
had not sought the Vice Presidency and
that in accepting it he had not con-
scented, for the present at least, to be-

that might Increase the embarrassments
Of the railways.
There seems to be general agreement
that a tax should be assessed on all soft
drinks. II Is likewise agreed that the
tax on beer should be increased. Whether
the Increase will be from 81, the present
rate, to S.5O a barrel. to to 81 a barrel.
has not been determined. There Is strong
opposition in Congress to an increase IN
the tax on whisky. This product now
pays SLl0 a gallon. There are members
who insist that whisky could well stand
an advance to SIS a gallon. In the war
tax act OF 1885 the rates on all tobacco
manufactures were increased. Among
the leaders the belief prevails that there
should be no increase in the taxes on
these products at this time.
The basis OF the proposed scheme OF
taxation prepared by the Secretary OF the
Treasury contemplates raising approx
mately $5O,0OO.OOO on railroad tickets This
Is just one-half the amount Of additional
revenue that President Wilson told Con-
gress today is needed for the purposes of
the government. With the adoption of
this ameAdment Congress would not be
put TO the necessity OF increasing the
rates on tobacco manufactures or
whisky, and the taxes on other available
articles could be reduced to a minimum.
With the rejection of the railway ticket
tax Congress would be required TO cover
a wide range of articles, and in that
event. II is believed. would pattern the
proposed enactment after the stamp tax
of 1898.
object I" Tax on Gasoline.
From the rural regions and small
comes bitter protest
against the suggestion that an internal
revenue tax shall be assessed on gaso-
line. 1t is the understanding that the
Treasury officials have suggested that
a rate of / or cents should be levied
on this product. Farmers who use auto
mobiles and manufacturers with small
plants claim that gasoline now costs
enough, and that it would he a heavy
burden on them to pay more in the form
OF a tax.
Today's conference of the Democratic
brought out only pro-
tests and an interchange Of ideas. An
adjournment was taken until this MORN
ing 1t is the general expectation that
the revenue bill will not be reported I'M
I'll the latter part of next week. There
is a strong probability that the whole
question will be threshed out In a Demo-
cratic caucus before it is taken up In
the House.
Representative Warren Worth Bailey.
of Pennsylvania, was first on deck
yesterday with a war tax" bill. Hard
l. had the President finished the read
ing of his appeal to Congress for
500. OOO,O00 additional revenue to pro-
vide emergency funds for the Federal
Treasury than the Pennsylvania
dropped a bill in the basket drawn to
meet the situation. II calls for a per
cent super tax on incomes of $4,000 and
over. and Mr. Bailey thinks IL would
not merely supply the deficit resulting
from decreased imports under war con-
ditlons. but go further and take care of
the big navy program and leave some
thing over to apply on pensions.
