Washington, Sept. 26.--Further evil
dence that Couns Won Bernstorff,
former German ambassador to Wash
ington, knew of his governments in
tentjon to inaugurate a campaign of
unrestricted submarine warfare prior
to his request for money with which
to influence congress, is in possession
OF the state department. Secretary
Lansing said today that as early as
January 10, Count Won Bernstorff
knew of the plan.
Answering inquiries the secretary
made this statement
I'm view of inquiries which have
been made as to whether Count Won
Bernstorff knew of the purpose of
his government to renew relentless
submarine warfare when he sent his
message of January 22. 1917, asking
authorization to expend $4,000, ! can
state that the department of state pos
sesses conclusive evidence that on or
before January 10, Count Bernstorff
had received and read the thinner
mann telegram to Minister Won Eek
hardt in Mexico which contained the
following:
1--WE intend to begin on the first of
February unrestricted submarine war
fare. We shall endeavor in spite of
this to keep the United States of
America neutral
Count Won Bernstorff was, there
fore, fully advised of the intentions of
the imperial government at the time
when he asked for authority of Berlin
to employ funds for an organization to
influence congressional action in favor
of the continued neutrality of this
country"

former President Taft in adopting a

Mr.. Taft addressed the conference
tonight.
America and her allies cannot con-

said. peace now, even on the basis of
the restoration of the status que,

TIMES Of all of u.s.
Mr.. Taft described the organization
and purposes of the League to Enforce
Peace in the United States and of the
League of Nations Society in England,
and added:
Whatever the detailed stipulations
OF such league, however its opera
ton and success must depend upon
the obligations of treaty stipulations.
Unless their binding effect is recog-
nized by the nations as a sacred prin-
ciple the stipulations of the league will
be writ in water The revelations
and disclosures of this war satisfy the
members Of the league that as long as
the present military caste controls the
German military and foreign policy,
the league is impracticable, and would
not be worth the parchments on which
its obligations would be recorded"

WAR REVENUE BILL


Washington Sept. 26.-The war tax
bill virtually was completed today by

tial agreement on the disputed war
excess profits taxation question ques-
ton averted a threatened deadlock
While a few questions remain open
for final settlement tomorrow, the
measure is said to be practically draft

ment on the war excess profits

for an per cent exemption and are
reported to have accepted the lower
rate as compromise.

Gerard's Great Influence
Ambassador James W. Gerard was
just as much of an envoy in practice to
Turkey and Bulgaria as he was TO Ger
many. During the war we have had
efficient and very capable ambassa
doris in ConstantinOple. Both Henry
Morgcnthau and Abram |. Elkus
have been successful in their work in
Turkey, but our government. knowing
the power Of Germany over Turkey,
has often used Berlin 20 accomplish
things quickly.
The power OF Germany over these
two countries is best evidenced by the
fact that German leaders seldom go TO
Sofia or Constantinople for conferences.
Il is always the other way. Turks come
&c Berlin or to Pless, where the Kaiser
has his headquarters and where the
General Staff of the army lives and
rules. When the question of using
Turkish troops in Rumania and Galicia
was discussed Enver Pacha was called
e Won Mackcnsen's headquarters in
Nolhynia. When the Turkish generals
not fight in Galicia and Rumania I'M
less they could have mutton to eat Ger
many had TO obtain the mutton-but,
as might be expected, il did not come
from Germany. but from Turkey and
Rumania. The Turks won't eat the
pork which the German soldiers de-
