NEXT GOVERNOR LIKES
--LATEST TAX SCHEDULE

The Hon. Lynn FraZier has written
State Auditor Carl Jorgenson, COM
plimenting him upon the new tax
schedule, which reduces the classified
items to 80. Last years schedule,
which caused something of a tempest,
contained IS items. Prior to taht time,
40 items had ben included in the
schedule. Formerly, for instance,
there were five classifications for
horses and cattle-yearlings two
year.olds, spayins, ringbones, and so
forth. Now all are Jumped under one
general head-horses and cattle of all
casses-and it relieves the assessor
of a lot of work and worry.

There is wide difference in the

DERNBERG GIVES hint
OF new U.BOAT WAR
Former Special Minister From Ger
many Also Praises Wilson.
CBy the International New. Service.

(By the International News seryfce.)
Berlin, Oct. S.-Hope that the United
States 'syill take a more reasonable view
should Germany be compelled again to
renew ruthless submarine warfare" is ex-
pressed in a long article by DR.. Bernhard
Dernberg in the Berliner Tageblatt.
The former special minister to this
country believes the full-hedged U-boat
campaign may have to be resorted to "in
order to force England to make peace"
He adds that there are signs of a grad
ual change OF Americas views in this
respect, owing to England's "domineer-
ing attitude toward neutrals." He justi-
hes President Wilson's stand throughout
the submarine controversy in the past
saying a different attitude would de
serve contempt and annihilation."
DR.. Dernberg points out that any states
man like President Wilson should justly
consider It his chief duty to serve the
present and future prestige of the United
States, increase its influence upon the
Western Continent and the adjacent seas
and seek for the worlds peace, which, he
adds, would make possible the exploita-
ton by America Of the yet largely dor
mant economical forces of that vast
country.
DR.. Dernberg admits that this is a pol
icy which while popular in America has
in some cases seriously affected German
interests. 1t is necessary, however, he
asserts, that America should realize Ger
many's own particular requirements.

BRYCE LOOKS TO u. S.
FOR Peace EFFORTS
Former British Ambassador Favors
Compulsory Arbitration.

Special Gable 70 he Washington Herald.
Birmingham, England, Oct 3.-Vis-
count Bryce. Of Dechmont, former
Ambassador from England to the
United States. has put himself down
as an advocate Of compulsory arbitra-
ton and a league OF nations to pro-
mote peace.
In a speech before the Congression-
al Union today he deplored the spirit
of hatred against Germany which
prevails and opposed In most Ugor-
Gus terms any attempt at trade war
after the present conflict OF arms
shall cease.
Viscount Bryce said that the most
hopeful Indications came from Amor
lea, where a Neutral League to En-
force Peace was advocated and a
great party had been formed to for
ward It.
Two momentous events have hap
pened in the United States on which
I dwell because they have been little
noticed here" said Viscount Bryce.
president Wilson delivered four
months ago a speech, In which he
announced that the United States
could not stand aloof from a move
ment in which the highest interests
of manhood were concerned, and that
he felt sure the people were prepared
to join in any feasible scheme ior the
prevention of future wars.
Two months ago Mr.. Charles E.
Hughes declared with no less force and
no less sincerity that he was convinced
the time had come for America to unite
with European countries in a well7con-
sidered scheme for applying methods OF
arbitration and conciiation to securing
general and permanent peace in the
world.
Thus the heads of the two great
American parties, distinguished men and
the official exponents Of American opin-
ion, have promised the cooperation OF
their nation in this proJect-one Of great
difficulty, no doubt, but also Of supreme
Importance"

and the horror of war. He said that

ANACOSTIA CITIZENS
URGE ARMOR PLANT
Set Forth Arguments Why Factory
Should Be Located in Capital.

In a report submitted to the Chamber
of Commerce by DR.. J. A. Watkins,
president, and A. e. Beck. secretary, of
the Anacostia Citizens Association, the
proposal to obtain for Washington the
location of the s11,O0o.0oO armor plate
plant was indorsed.
The report of the association further
set forth arguments why Anacostia should
be the location OF the plant. There is
already a steel plant in the vicinity, as
well as the chemical plant of the Chem
ical Products Company, and a great auto
mobile tire factory now under construc-
ton. According to the report, none OF
these factories give any annoyance to
the citizens.
The Anacostians propose site on the
river bank on the government reclaimed
land adjacent to a railroad.
Navy Department officials indicated
yesterday that 1t may be several months
before a site Is chosen for the armor
plat factory.
Secretary Daniels has called a hearing
for October 10 which will be the last day
in court for cities seeking the armor
plant.
