chair could use one of its legs to
kick with and he was fined $40.
Ten-Thirty for George.
"Oh, Judge, this man was on a
spree.
Il found him stewed against a
tree"
So Policeman Frye told Judge
Pugh about George Williams. who
, had a large cargo of Four-and-a-
half street booze on board and
steered down the street. When
George first sighted the tree 1t was
near the curb. When he reached 1t,
1t was In the middle of the side
walk.
Its movements were suspicious
and George held on to 1t. 1t was
good thing he was able to stand
end up. because IL he had fallen
down he would have spilled his
| cargo. 1t was necessary to back
the wagon up to George and take
him. Judge Pugh sentenced him to
total abstinence for thirty days.

Martha was arrested for cussing hi
| Norfolk alley. She is a very sensi-
tive young woman and when the boy
| stuck his tongue out at her several
times she got peeved.
"Ah didn't hurt nobody, Jedge,"
said Martha.
"Yes you did," said the court. You

BELGIANS Compelled
To WORK FOR HUNS
Men and Women Forced to Do
Manual Labor.

since January 1 every man and
woman in Belgium from 10 to 50 has
been compelled to work for the Ger
mans. This is the statement of a
Belgian wOrkingnan who escaped
across the frontier, given out by the
St1te Department yesterday.
All identity cards and passports were
contiscated and 1t was thus impossible
for the Belgians to move away from
their homes. Every day an officer
would go through the village and
choose the men and women wanted
for all kinds Of work. Many were
sent up behind the firing lines for work
on railroads and highways. These
men were under shell FIRE and the
danger OF gas attack. Many were
wounded and died
q Those who protested were impris-
oned and sent to Germany. One
woman, the man says, who in pro-
tecting her daughter from a German
offcer, cried out that 'An Germans
were pigs" was sentenced to six
months Imprisonment. She was sent
to Germany, and though her term has
long expired she has not yet returned.

Per CENT TAX
Senate Refuses to Approve
Proposal of Senator
Hiram Johnson.

There is no chance of the United
states taxing eighty per cent of the
huge profits made during this war.
BY a vote of 81 to II. the Senate yes
terday rejected such a proposal made
by Hiram Johnson, of California.
The defeat came as a decided blow
to the "Maximalists" who have con-
stantly urged radical levies. 1t is
now confidently predicted that the
Senate will refuse to take war pro-
fits higher than sixty per cent. This
is the top figure OF the sliding scale
advocated by the Finance Committee.
Contrary to his usual practice. La
Toilette, instead of making a fiery
argument and accompanying it by
gesticulation and loud cries, used
facts and figures as his weapons.
Now and than, however. he returned
to his old form of oratory. As for
instance, when he cried:
THE penalty for not making pro-
per income returns is so to $1,000 un-
der this bill In the name of decency,
let us make the penalties for eva
sion OF the tax law as severe as
the penalties for evasion of the draft
law
Scores War Spectators
rs it a more serious offense for a
mother to evade the draft law in
order to save the life OF her boy than
for a millionaire to evade the tax
law in order to save some OF the
dollars he has made from the war;?
The Wisconsin Senator spoke FOR
three hours. and will continue on
Monday. He will submit amendment
after amendment in an EFFORT to force
as hish taxation as possible.
LaFollette chided the Finance Com
mittee for first condemning opponents
of the original plan as trying 10
make the war unpopular" and then
switching the scheme for taxation:
ut has become the policy IN thls
country, and l regret to say to some
extent in this body" he said. 10 con-
denim as disloyal and unpatriotc, any
man who has dared to stand LOT
