TUCKERToN BECOMES PROBLEM.
Even Ownership OF wireless station
IL stlII In Doubt.

WAsHiNGroN, Sept. l0.-Capt w H. @.
Billiard, L. ;. ", superintendent of the
Naval Radio Service. left Washington to-
night for Tuckerton. y. j.. where he will
investigate questions In connection with
the operation OF the wireless station at
that place. which has been taken over by
tho United States Government to fscili-
tate communication with Germany.
The naval authorities have found a
badly tangled situation at Tuckerton and
believe 1t will be several days before all
the pending quest ions can be adjusted. II
Is feared that the station will be
swamped with officiai messages OF the
belligerents so that there will be no op-
portunity to utilize II for the general pub
l'c either for commercial or press mes
sages. During the present atmospheric
conditions the station cannot work with
the German shore stations more than
about three hours a night
II Is likely also that the rate OF II
cents a word. established by the navy a.
the rate to Hanover, Germany. will have
to be raised
The question OF ownership IL tangle
also. The construction company has
physical control OF the station; an Amer
ican company, made up OF French capt.
talists, has paid three fourths OF its price.
while a company in Germany. which con-
trolls the patents of the station, is also a
virtual owner
Theodore X, Lemke. manager OF the
Tuckerton wireless station, said Yesterday
that the office was swamped with mes
sages, private and commercial and with
inquiries about the service. He believes
that II cents word rate N too low. He
will go 10 Tuckerton to-day TO confer
with the navy officials In charge OF the
station now and arrange for the future
conduct OF the ONCE.

Entire War Tax TO Fall On
Wines, Beer and Freight
lhee Per Cent Levy on Goods Transported by Railways
Provided in Bill Drafted by Administration
l.eaderS-ROads to BE Collectors.


W,suINeroN. Sept. 10 --The Admins
ration bill to raise additional revenues
to meet the deficit in customs caused by
the war was completed to-day by the
Committee on Ways and Means. The
emergency measure applies only to beer,
wines and railway freight. Taxes are
levied OH tac:c items that are expected to
Yield sia, .cvv.uoV a year
The bill provides for u tsx OF Z per
cents Gallon on wines. and an increased
tax on beer from 81 TO $3.50 a barrel
According to estimates made by the
committee, the taxes will produce revenues
as follows Beer. s33. 200. 900 wines. So

President Wilson Is not opposed to the
tax on freight. lie was consulted and

adopted.

ratel empowering the President 10 suspend
the tax on freight at any time that he

recommends such a provision II Will be
written into the bill However. members
OF Congress do not believe that such
power should be vested In the President.
To Distribute Burden.
In agreeing to the tax on freight the
Democratic leaders explained that they
were actusted by a desire to distribute
The burden as widely as possible. Under
this tax. which Is novel In the revenue
legislation OF the United States, every
body will have TO contribute his mite for
the support OF the Government.
The danger in this tax. though. Is that
retailers and others will use II as a cover
for boosting prices beyond the amount Of
the tax. The freight tax. many believe
will result In adding at least per cent
10 the cos; OF living in this country.
The freight tax was favored by the
Democratic leaders because II is an In
direct chars, ON the consumer For po-
litiCal reasons they wanted to avoid
stamp taxes" They desire to impose the
tax In such a way as not to annoy the
man who was thinking OF voting the
Democratic ticket.
The proposed tax on railway tickets
was discarded because Il was direct
charge and would be paid only by a com
paritively small proportion of the people
The freight tax will be collected by the
railways acting as agents for the Gov
eminent. The details have not been en-
tlrely worked out. The railways will pur-
chase stamps. affix them to bills OF lad!ng

make an accounting to the Government

from the tip Of his nose to the end Of
his very brief and economical tail and
