MAY WARN YANKEES
TO AVOID DANGERS
Germany Expected to Send
Note to America Telling
of Armed Ship Perils..

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Informa-
tion reached here that Germany and
her allies are considering communi-
eating to the state department vir-
tual warning that Americans should
keep off of armed merchant ships of
belligerent nations. This became
known today following the intima-
ton in official circles yesterday that
the United States might issue soon a
new memorandum setting forth its
attitude toward armed merchantmen.
Germany apparently has been paw
ing the way for such step for several
weeks by submitting to the state de-
partment a series of statements al
leging specific instances in which
merchant craft of the entente powers
have used extensively against sub
marine guns carried ostensibly for de-
fense.
The armed ship question, an un-
solved problem thruout all the nego-
tiations over submarine warfare, is
involved In practically all of the cases
now pending between the United
States and Germany and over which
an admittedly grave situation eventu-
ally will have to be faced. Officials of
the American government, however,
have adopted n waiting attitude dur
ing discussion of moves for peace and
st'll believe thai the submarine issue
will not be forced to n conclusion az
long as there is possibility OF tangi-

Scheduled for Action.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 30.-Thc ad-
ministration revenue bill designed TO
raise about s250,O0O.OO by increasing
the inheritance tax and by n new tax
on excess profits and containing au-
thorization for an additional bond
issue of s10O,000,000 was taken up in
the house today with prospect of
passage by tomorrow night
Discussion Of the measure developed
into an oldtime tariff debate. The
Republicans accredited the prospec-
tive treasury deficit to Democratic
mismanagement and extravaganza
and urged as substitute a measure
to raise the necessary revenue thru
higher customs duties. Democratic
leaders replied that the shortage was
due almost entirely to the Mexican
emergency and the unusual prepared
ness expenditures and urged that lev
les on excess profits and inheritances
would place the burden where II be-
longs and would be least felt.

two calendar made the action neccs-
sary Republicans voted solidly
against tho motion To- table. The

Borah and other Republicans having
served notice that they would address

Destroy Sovereignty Nations.
Senator Cummins spoke at length
today. declaring that TO carry out
President Wilson's suggestions would
ncccssitate the creation OF world
power that would destroy the SOW

United states inevitably either into
constant world war or constant rebel
lion against the authority OF the new

Replying. Senator Hitchcock insist
ed that the Iowa senator's criticisms
were based upon an erroneous as

PRODUCERS URGE
z PER CENT TAX
Oil Men Frame Appeal to the
Governor and Legislature
at Oklahoma City Meet.

Special to The World.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Jan. S0.-Af-
filiation with the Employers Associa-
ton of Oklahoma by oil men of the
state may be the ultimate result of
meeting of oil men held here today,
in which the matter of securing re-
ducton of the 3 per cent gross pro-
duction tax on oil was discussed. Reso-
lutions were adopted appealing to the
governor and members of the legis-
lature TO effect n reduction of the tax
to not more than 2 per cent. The
resolution will be presented to the gov
ernor tomorrow by a committee COM
posed of j. l.. 1amon. George Black.
w. A. Ledbetter, w. j. Millburn A.
X. Wallace and G.. $. Avery.
Organization Plans.
As to future organization of oil men
In whatever movement they may be
engaged the sentiment was that they
should affiliate with the employers
association and a number OF appli-
cations were made before the meet
ing adjourned to become members Of
it. 1t is possible that Chairman c. S.
Avery of Tulsa. who presided over
the meeting today. will select one man
from every oil district in the state to
take up the matter of organization
with his fellow oil men and probably
within a month another meeting will
be held to perfect arrangements for
the proposed affiliation.
TO Present Data.
The main object of the meeting was
to arrange "A working plan whereby
| legislation may be secured reducing
the present per cent tax to 2 per
cent. Facts and figures" to be placed
before the legislature and governor
would have the most effect, suggested
Leo Meyer, tax commissioner for the
Cosden companies, and this plan was
favored by others.
State Auditor Il. y. Howard, who
| appeared not as a state official, he
said, but because he was Interested
in what the others were, declared that
reduction of the tax to per cent
would not place n burden upon any
class of taxable property in the state.
but that 1t would be nearer an equt-
able distribution of the tax problem.
! He stated that the tax rate now ex-
acted only IS mills on property out
of the cities, whereas the gross pro-
duction tax as 1t is was equal to 3
mills.
