newspaper correspondent, recon-
mends that all Prohibitionists be tax
ed s. a head to raise the additional
revenue needed by the government be-
cause of decreased imports during the
European war. Doyle says that the
internal revenue tax on beer and
liquor already is high and the drink
ers pay about so cents per capita
while the Prohibitionists pay nothing.
"Tax the Prohibitionists IS a head"
said Boyle, "and you will raise $780,

lists claim they number about one

Mitchell and Whitman at Work.

Washington, Aug. 13.-President
Wilson today directed Attorney Cen
eral McReynolds to investigate the re-
cent increases in prices of foodstuffs
and to take up the question whether
any persons responsible can be prose-
cuted.
The president sent the following let
ter to the attorney general:
The rapid and unwarranted IN
creases in the prices of foodstuffs in
this country on the pretext of condi-
tions existing in Europe is so serious
and vital matter that | take the lib
erty of calling your attention to it.
Il would be very much obliged if
you would advise me whether there is
under existing law any action which
fine department of justice could take,
'either by way of investigation or legal
process, and what Federal legislation,
if any. would, in your judgment, be
justifiable and warrantable in the cir
cumstances.
Il feel that this is a matter which
we cannot let pass by without trying
to serve the country. Certainly the
country ought to be defended if pos
sible against men who would take ad-
vantage of such circumstances to in
crease the price Of food and the diff
ficulties of living.
BEAUTIFULLY yours,
(Signed) "WOODROW WILSON,"
The president took up the question
of increasing prices the first thing
today, and was impressed by the pres
sure of the situation. When he re-
turned from Mrs. Wilson's burial at
Rome, Ca, resolutions already had
been. introduced in the house calling
on the department of commerce and
the department of justice to report
what action they were taking. Presi-
dent Wilson's interest III the situation,
however, was wholly apart from
that, and he probably would have TAX.
en- action before had it not been for
the death in the white house.
Attorney General McReynolds at
once replied to the president as fol-
lows:
81 have your letter of August Is in
reference to the unwarranted increase
in the price of foodstuffs. The head
of our special agents has been in
structed to give directions to his men
throughout the country to begin in
vestigations in order to ascertain the
real facts, and I am sending the var
ious district attorneys similar in
structions. This should enable us tc

respect to true conditions.

complete armies on both sides nave
finally maneuevered into position.
Details of the losses sustained are
not at hand. According to the Bel
gian reports the Germans were re-
pulsed after fierce fitting. At one
place, it is declared, upward of 200
German dead were counted in space
80 yards square.
The engagement will be know as
the battle of Haelen. It Waged all
day and far into the night. AT
o'clock in the evening shells We're still
falling. .e.#z..
,, According to the Belgian reports the
main fighting centered around Haelen.
which is in the Belgian province of
Limburg, while the battle line extend
ed to Diest, to the north of the prov
ince of Brabant, after passing around
Zellhen. The battle of Diest was
merely a part of the general fight all
along the line.
Enfilading Fire Deadly.
When a patrol of carbineers first
signalled the approach of the German
troops at the opening of the engage
ment, the Belgians manned the
trenches and hot fire greeted the
German advance.
The Germans brought into play
their artillery. A slaughter of Bel
gians followed. Bringing their guns
to bear upon the. trenches, the Ger
mans swept them with such deadly
hail of bullets that the Belgians were
driven out and forced to retire into
the town of Haelen.
Hand-to-hand fighting ensued as
the Belgians broke for cover for then
retreats.
The brilliant uniforms of the Bel
gians in contrast to the dull gray suits
of the Germans made them splendid
targets for the Germans and they
were swept down by scores in their
retreat to the city. Reinforcements
were quickly brought up, however.
and the Belgians rallied, driving the
Germans back and re-capturing tna
defenses from which they had been
driven and forced the Germans back
in a series of desperate charges to-
ward Haselt and st. Trond.
