Tallahassee, Fla, 6, 1915.
The matter of the failure of some
of the banks to pay the license tax re-
quired of them was for the first time
brought to the attention of Governor
Trammell last week by the Tax Com
mission at which time he stated to the
Commission that he would take the
matter up with the Tax Collectors as
soon as he could get information as
to the counties in which the law had
not been enforced, requesting the
Commission to furnish him this infor-
nation. On Wednesday of this week
the Commission reported to the Cover
nor definitely regarding Citrus, Hills
borough and fernando Counties, and
thereupon the Governor addressed a
letter to the respective Tax Collec-
tors of these counties as follows:
"My dear Sir:
at has been brought to my atten-
ton that you have failed to collect the
license tax from a number of the
State Banks of your county. This
matter is brought to your attention
that you may proceed under the law
and fully comply with the require
ments of the law as provided in Sec
tions SO to "a, inclusive, of Chapter
6421 of the Laws of Florida. | I'M
derstand that very large majority
of the State banks throughout Flori.
da have paid the license tax and it is
not right that a few of them should
be allowed to avoid the license re-
Guirements unless the courts should
hold that the law is not operative

 Further attacks were directed against our positions at Neuville St. yaast on the village itself, on the cemetery and more to the south in the region called the "Labyrinthe.'
 At only one point did the enemy ob- tain a footing for moment That was in one of our advanced trenches He was driven back immedia tely and he left within our lines numerous prisoners.
 In the forest of Argonne the Ger mans exploded several mines close to our positions and then tried to occupy with important forces the craters caused by the explosions. Our infantry repulsed the Germans and drove them back to the point from which they started.
 We inflicted on the enemy extremely heavy losses by our shell fire, and by the use of hand grenades. The repulse of the enemy has been complete

 North of Melville St. Naast we have carried series of enemy trenches and have reached the crossroad north of the village

The entrance of Roumania shutting off the wheat sup ply from southeastern Europe would be another important factor. There long has been an understanding be- tween Italy and Roumania, according to official information here, to enter the war at approximately the sam time. Whether Bulgaria, anxious to regain territory lost to Roumania, will prompt that country to enter the con. tlict. is a matter of wide conjecture here despite recent assurances glven Roumania that she would not be at tackled.

Mir. Montgomery's Letter

To the Editor of The Age -Herald:
 There seems 10 be much diversity of opinion as to what either the city of Birmingham or the county of Jefferson should do to avail themselves of the opportunity afforded by slack water nayi- gation on the Warrior river and his low freight rates for this section.
 It seems imperative that in some way the city or county will have to control the connection tu tie river, either by a railroad or by low grade highway There are arguments for either method. The railroad could handle the heavy freight more economicallv provided it's lines reached each individual plant, and one loading and unloading would handle the freight This would necessitate bhild- ing the road to all plants in the district as well as belt road to reach the large mercantile houses. If q switching charge would have to be paid there would oe no economy in water rates, as you would be at the mercy of the existing lines, sp a railroad line without connections to ex- isting manufacturing plants, would be ot liftle adVaptagp
