OMNIBUS BILL FOR

DEMOCRATIC PLAN
By TIC United Press.

BY IAc United Press.
WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-Passage OF
one omnibus bill to include all reve-
nue. legislation, income and muni-
tions taxes, tariff commission. the
sugar duty and all other subjects.
was the daring political strategy un-
der serious consideration today by
administration leaders. The House
ways and means Democrats plan to
meet Thursday to consider the scheme
advanced by Representative Garner,
OF Texas, who has been consulting
President Wilson.
According to the plan the bill
would include legislation:
Revising the income tax levying
new inheritance taxes. repeating
present war stamp taxes, increasing
duties on whiskey and cigars. taxing
war munitions. creating a tariff COM
mission, an anti-dumping clause, re-
tanning present taxes on sugar. re-
pealing taxes on mixed -four.
BY advancing just one revenue BILL
Representative Garner today pointed
out, many Republicans and Democrats
would vote for it. because of some
single item of legislation incOrpor-
ated. That IL would decrease Demo-
cratic detection on preparedness. rev.
enues was another virtue advanced.
Garner believes that enough Republi-
cans would be compelled to support
the omnibus bill to insure its passage.
The new tariff-raising plan ad-
vanced of increasing internal revenue
taxes on whiskey and cigars is also
gaining support The present plans
of leaders is to raise taxes on whis-
key Is cents a gallon and change the
system of taxing cigars from that OF
numbers to their value. This would
raise $4,000. 600. it is estimated. The
whiskey and cigar taxes would be a
substitute for the present STAMP
taxes. which raise S33,000O00 annu'

LONDON. Feb. S.-RumOrs that the
German fleet is preparing for its long
expected dash into the North Sea
reached here today from Dutch
sources, and aroused high hopes in
London that a great naval battle is
imminent in the North Sea.
Dispatches from The Hague reported
that German marines along the Bel
gian coast arc being withdrawn and
sent to Kiel. All leaves of absence
of German naval ofiivers have been
cancelled. the dispatches added.
From Copenhagen came reports OF
sudden activity at Kiel and of rumors
reaching Danish frontier towns that
the Germans were abouts to risk bat
tie. Four Zeppelins and a flock Of
German taubes have reinforced the
air flOtilla at the German naval base.
The supposition is that they are to
accompany the fleet in its sortie from
behind the protecting guns and mine
fields Of Helgoland.
Vague rumors that the Teuton naval
officers we're about to attempt a start
ling coup poured into London. even
before the exploits of the German
commerce raider that captured the

pam reached Norfolk several Berlin
dispatches have carried similar hints
