not doubted that there may
be some opposition to Mr. Mann's
election, when Congress convenes on
Dec. A, 1917. In the last session, a
small coterie of Republicans, who
were bit peeved at the fact that
they had not been let in on the man
agement of things, threatened often
rebellion against Mann.

their votes they have Enthusiastically
said that they want the law enforced.
and that if any taxpayer knowingly
fails to fully list his property he shall
be made to pay the penalty of so
per cent to be added to the full value
OF his omitted property besides
other penalties. The people have
tax commission to investigate all vio-
lations of law that are brought to its
attention. to the end that there shall
be less tax lodging.
In my official capacity there have
been brought to my immediate and

Berlin, Germany wireless to
sayville, l.. I)-By making Nauen
,he most powerful wireless station in
Europe and probably in the world and
by increasing the speed of sending
tour-fold by means of wonderful war
inventions, Germany has so added to
its wireless service to America as
practically to make westbound COM
munication Independent of cables.
This means a revolution in German
American news relations of the great
est political Importance because it
will practically end British censor

May Supplant Cable in Peace.
1t is promised that the wireless will
have capacity sufficient to carry all
the news to America without having
recourse to the British cables. AT the
same time work is under way to add
to the Eilvese station here until it has
the same capacity as that at Nauen,
so that facilities for transmitting mes
sages by wireless may become so
as to supplant the cable service, even
in time of peace. Nauen works in con-
nection with Sayville and Eilvese
with Tuckerton.
Already the American stations have
increased their receiving capacity to
keep up with the increase here. Work
will begin at once to increase the
sending capacity OF the American sta
tions and when this has been done
the service will be able to take the
eastbound business at the same speed
as the westbound. This will complete
ly divorce German-American new:
and business communications from in
terference by the British censor ant
offer rate cheaper than that of the
British cables.

The increase in the capacity of tn
