Washington, July 3.-The Russian of fensive, welcomed with rejoicing by the Russian mission here, was stated today by Ambassador B. A. Bakhmeteff to be complete proof of the establishment of Russia's fighting power as a neces- sary safeguard to the achievements of the revolution.
 The mission is unwilling to prophecy as to the future. except to say that Ger many's whole policy toward Russia, based on desperate hope of a separate peace, will undoubtedly change.
 The Russian mission, as ambassador said. is indeed happy to confirm re- ports of the offensive. Started on a broad front with big forces it lis the un- derstood and logical result of the striving within the army to consolidate the fight ing power of Russia, as the prime neces- sity of fulfilling the aims of the revo- lution.
 The latest news that the reorganiza- tion of the army is complete and that the army is now strong in its desire for freedom and in it's confidence in its lead CTS. The re-establishment of the whole power of the army Is a new confirmation that Russia has come, through clear un- derstandng and union. to. realize the ne- cessity of protecting the achievements of the Russian revolution"

 TAX IN CONFERENCE.
It Is Said That House Will Never Agree to Draft of Measure by Senate
 Committee

Washington, July 3-Predictions of a bitter fight in conference between the House and Senate over the war revenue bill unless drastic changes are made by the Senate in the draft it's finance com night by Representative Rainey, ranking democratic member of the House ways and means committee.
 Primarily. MT. Rainey said, the total of the Senate draft. $1,670, 100000, must be raised. The House, he believes, will in. sist on the measure carrying at least the s1.S00, 100000 originally proposed, on thes ground that Congress has no right to mortgage the future to any greater extent than by the $7.0O00O0,O00 of war bonds already authorized
 MT. Rainey declared the Senate meas ure was a rich mans bil and that the House would stand pat on demand that the burden be transferred from the shoulders of the poor
 From the wealthy mans viewpoint" !" he said, the Senate draft certainly is an excellent measure. It would lift in- come, automobile, retroactive income and other taxes from the wealthy and settle the burden on tea, sugar, cocoa and other necessaries used in every home. 1 carnot believe that there will not be changes made on the floor"

SENATE MAY VOTE
 ON FOOD MEASURE
 BY NEXT SATURDAY
Outlook for Final Passage so Bright It May Not Be Necessary to Have
 ClOture

Washington, July 3-A respite over the holiday was taken tonight by the Senate in its struggle over food control and legislation after material progress had been made on the bill.
 Disposal of several important provis-
 ions during the day and prospects of securing unanimous consent agree ment for an early final vote caused Sen ator Chamberlain to withhold the mo- ton to shut off debate by invoking the new cloture rule abandon plans to hold the Senate in Congress tonight and to- morrow and agree to a recess until Thursday.
 Private opinions for an agreement to vote Saturday or Monday were so prom ising that Senator Chamberlain expressed cor fidence that it would not be necessary to file the cloture motion, although he will have it ready Saturday.
 The licensing and anti-hoarding sec tions were adopted today as well as the provisions exempting farmers, gardeners, stock raisers and farmers cooperative from government control. Most of the debate was on the commit tee amendment prohibiting government employees or agents. including members of voluntary commissions, from selling their own products to the government Senators McKellar, Reed, Borah and others criticized sale by members of the advisory committee of the defense coun- cil of their products to the government. A vote upon the amendment was post poned, but with sentiment apparently overwhelmingly in it's favor.
 defense of the advisory commission was made by Senator Brandegee in ask ing that the report of Director Clifford to Secretary Baker he printed in the record Senators, he said, ought to in- form themselves of the commission be- fore criticizing these men who had come to Washington voluntarily to do what they could for the government, inspired by patriotic motives
 Inspired by patriotic motives, Sena- tor McKellar offered no amendment that the board created to carry out the provisions of the bill should make all of the purchases for the allied and neutral governments in this

SUPPLY SHIPS ARE LAST ID ARRIVE
 AT FRENCH PORT
With Their Coming the An nouncement Is Made En- tire Expedition Safely
 Across Atlantic

A French Seaport, July ?. Delayed. The last units of the American expeditionary force, comprising vessels loaded with supplies and horses, arrived here today amid the screeching of whistles and moaning of sirens. Their coming, one week after the first troops landed, was greeted almost as warmly as the arrival of the troops them selves, because it meant the complete success of the under taking.
 Many American soldiers crowded down to the wharf to greet the last ships of the expendition and the American vessels in the harbor, which had made up previous contingents of the force, joined in the welcome The late arrival of the supply ships was due not only to later departure from America, but to the fact that the ves- sells were slower than those which had come before.
 The arrival of the supplies makes an early getaway for permanent training camps possible, for the troops will need to wait only long enough for their horses to get the kinks out of their legs, as one officer expressed it today One battalion leaves today for Paris to pa rade on the Fourth of July and leave the day following for their permanent training camp, to be located behind the front, Somewhere in France"
 The departure of these troops will be the forerunner of general exodus of the men arriving during the past week. although exact dates have not yet been determined

Three months ago today President Wilson asked Congress to formally de- clare state of war with Germany and to prepare the nation. after years of peace and military unpreparedness, to use all of it's resources to make the world safe for democracy. To- morrow American troops summoned from the border and from foreign soil and carried overseas in defiance of the submarine menace, will march through the streets of Paris ready to take their places behind the firing lines on land while American warships in force hold important sectors of the great naval lines which command the seas.
 Back of these major accomplish ments stand others less spectacular but no less notable or important in the monumental task of preparation.
 Upwards of ten millions of men have been registered under war legislation for military service and the work of organizing universal service army is well under way.
 Scores of American merchant yes sells have been armed and have taken

Paris, July 3-A battalion of American troops arrived in Paris this morning to parade on July 4. The Americans were greeted by wildly enthusiastic crowds, which packed the streets through which they marched to Nenuilly barracks, where they are quartered. The officers are being entertained at the Military club.
 The Americans arrived at the Austerlitz station at TAO o'clock. having been 36 hours on the way from the French port at which they debarked. The soldiers were greeted by representatives of the French and American army The French Red Cross provided refreshments and the American Red Cross and Young Mems Christian association also sent rep resentatives to greet them.
 Headed by their own band the soldiers. carrying their rifles and field packs, fell in and marched of to the barracks, The crowds waved American and French flags Hundreds of Americans were in tho throng at the station.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-07-04

As the troops swung through the streets French girls pinned bouquets and American flags on the soldiers breasts. Flowers were scattered along the route. The band played Yankee Doodle, |" "Dixie' Marching Through Georgia" and other American airs. French sol- diers on leave grasped the hands of the Americans and marched behind them.
 Several times groups of snop sirls on their way to work slipped through the police lines and kissed the soldiers, to their great embarrassment. Now and then an American voice would be heard calling out, Hello, boys,' Welcome to Paris or Good luck" When the regl- mental colors were carried past the men bared their heads. The Americans were greatly surprised to see a number of children kneel in the street as the flag was carried by. They were orphans from an institution in the neighborhood.
 The soldierly bearing of the men ini- pressed observers. They were lean and brown and the new field packs gave them quite different appearance from Britt ish or continental soldiers
