800 MEX|CANS HAVE
CROSSED BORDER:
SITUATION SERIOUS

Brownsville. Texas, Aug. 9.-Of-
ficials today turned their attention
to reports that three hundred Mexi-
cans had crossed the border in Hi
dalgo county and small parties were
apparently making their way to
some concentration point. Unusual
precautions have been taken to pre-
vent an outbreak. 1t is expected that
soldiers sent to Norias' ranch last
night will relieve Americans at
tackled by Mexican bandits and de-
tails Of the Norias' fight are awaited
with interest. Owing to bandits cut
ting the telephones and the isolat-
ed nature of the country, reports
are meager. Fourteen ranchmen,
who were latef reinforced by SOL
diers, repelled the attacks, and sew
eral outlaws were killed and FIVE
Americans and three soldiers wound
ed. All passenger trains were
stopped last night for fear outlaws
would wreck them. Additional
troops have been sent to Lyford,
Raymondville and Sebastion.

"A Turns down OFFER Of
cE MADE BY GERMANY AND
EAT STRUGGLE CONTINUES
TAX ON WAR PROFITS
NOT FEASIBLE
(By Associated Press. } .

Dresden. Germany, Aug. "a
committee appointed by the Dres-
den Chamber of Industry to study
the problem of taxing war profits
has reported that such a tax is not
feasible, because it cannot be
equitably assessed.
While expressing the view that in
principle a war profit tax would be
reasonable and justified, the COM
mittee notes that in carrying the
proposal into effect it would be
necessary to consider in the case of
each individual concern, the loss
entailed by its not having been able
to dispose of goods manufactured
before the war, the expense of con-
vertine its plant to war purposes,
and the difficulty of resuming its
normal business when peace is re-
stored. In these circumstances the
real war profits" could only be
fixed accurately long after the end
of the war.
