PREPAREDNESS WILL COME
 FIRST, TAX BUDGET NEXT

Washington, Nov. Special to The Press) National prepared ness will be the first measure con- sidered by the sixty-fourth congress when it convenes next Monday. Next will come the consideration of revenue measures. This, according to well informed democrats who are in close touch with the admin istration, is the program now de- cided upon President Wilson, ac- cording to this information, will ask democratic leaders to hold the revenue bill until action has been taken on plans for national prepar- edness and defense. There are two principal reasons for this course: First, the determination to push to successful issue plans already out lined by the war and naval depart ments before factional entangle- ments arise, and second, the belief that revenue measure to fill all requirements can best be drafted when the preparedness program has been disposed of and information is at hand regarding it's cost. lndica- tions are that democrats, almost without exception, will follow the presidents suggestion.

And No Band Wagon.

Ed Giroux, the New York the atrical manager, was a press agent for various circuses in the good Tod days. During the past sum- mer he was in Toronto on business. He chartered a livery rig to take him out into the country to inspect the billing that had been done for an attraction in which he was in terested. Before he had travelled very far he recognized in the driver an ancient boss canvasman for the Wallace shows, whom he had known years and years before. Naturally the talk, from that point on, dealt with main tops, red wagons, blue seats and the sawdust smell.
 Presently, as they came out of a cross-road, a funeral procession passed along the main highway. They halted to let the cortege go by-one dingy hearse, with glass sides, and eight carriages.
 Red" inquired Giroux, what do you think of that parade?"
 "Bum!" said Red. 'Only one open den! !"-Saturday Evening Post.

ATTACK FROM FOUR
 SIDES SEEMS SURE

Amsterdam, Nov. 30.-(Special to The Press) That Germany ex- poets to be attacked from four sides in the Balkan conflict be- comes more apparent as the wars strategy gradually unfolds. On the north Russia and Roumania will assail the kaiser's troops, while in the south British, French and Ser bian forces will attempt to advance. Russia will endeavor to invade Bull garia by effecting a landing at some predetermined Black sea port, while from the west will come Ital- ian and Montenegrin divisions, through Albania. The northern frontier, it now seems certain will be defended by Bulgarians with the aid of German and Turkish regi- ments. Turks are scheduled to guard the Black sea coast, while Austrians are expected to hold off Italian commands coming through Albania.

GERMAN REICHSTAG OPENS;
 FOOD QUESTION IMPORTANT

Berlin, Nov. 30.-(Special to The Press. )-Progress of the war, and Germany's opportunity to feed her millions, will undoubtedly be the chief topics of discussion today when the reichstag convenes. Dis cussion of the war will be limited almost entirely to prospects of successful termination and there will be no criticism of it's manage ment. At least this seems to be the opinion of persons holding re- sponsible governmental positions, who have an opportunity to keep close tab on political developments, The matter of supplying fresh funds for continued fighting promises to cause much discussion. Although
The weekly soliphone., 1915-12-03

the new Balkan highway in a measure opens a food route, it is not believed that sufficient provis- ions can be brought into the en- pire in this manner on account of the scant rail equipment, and the fact that for the present at least the line will be used almost en- tirely in supplying munitions for the Turks, and moving troops in Serbia and Bulgaria.
 Socialists in the reichstag are certain to ask Bethmann-Holweg what the Germans are fighting for and what the ultimate peace terms will be. The session, which opens this afternoon, will be devoted al- most exclusively to routine work.
