STONE PROPOSES
 WAR BOND ISSUE OF HALF BILLION
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 WASHINGTON, June 2S. With revision of the war tax bill virtually completed and now totalling s1,449, coo, 900 against the $1.S00,OG GOO levy of increased taxes adopted by the house, the senate finance committee today considered authorization of ad ditional bonds.
 Senator Stone formally proposed a bond issue of s500,000. GOO The com mittee plans to reach a decision to- morrow and to fix the rate to be imposed on war excess profits-prob ably IS per cent. During lengthy committee discussion of the bond question, a larger issue was not sug- gested, although with g. half billion of bonds, Senator Simmons said, the bill still would fall short by $300,- 000,000 and probably more of meeting the ensuing years war expense. From excess profits the committee now plans, under it's latest estimates. to raise $500, 100000. An amendment adopted today would exempt from the tax upon individuals, persons:
 In office or employment, including that of a commercial traveller or agent whose remuneration consists wholly of a fixed and definite sum irrespective of the amount of busi- ness done or any other contingency; and a profession, the profits of which depend mainly on the personal quail fications of the individuals. and in which there is not required the investment of more than nominal capital.
 Manufacturers and their representa- tiVes generally are opposing repeal proposed by the committee of the drawback by which they receive from the government virtually all duties paid on raw materials which enter in- to manufactured products which later are exported In such cases the gov ernment retains one per cent of the dutv maid as an administration charge

COMPLETE REPORT FROM PERSH|NG
 STILL |S LACKING
IRepublican A. p. Leased Wire1


 WASHINGTON. June 2S.-Complete reports from Major General Pershing upon the landing of his first expedition in France still were lacking tonight and the war department remained si- lent. The delay may be accounted for by the report that until today General Pershing did not personally visit the American encampment.
 At the navy department reports are awaited from the commander of the convoy that accomplished without a marring incident so far as known, one of the greatest tasks ever assigned a naval force
 There was much discussion today as to when the American forces will take over a part of the great battle line in France. Whatever plans have been made in this regard are closely guarded No official of any branch of the government would admit having any knowledge on the subject. In a general way. however it is known that a considerable period must elapse before they can be thrown into | the trenches. Vast problems of strat- ] egic campaigns. of political effects to be sought, and of supplies and supply lines must be worked out. The men, fresh from the tropics or from the , Mexican border. must be carefully ac climated to prevent sickness. ! The great need of the moment, as 1 explained by Marshal Joffre and his ] British associates was to send a force with the flag at once to show the peo- ! pie of France, straining under the great burden of war. that a friend was at hand.
 i There will be no let up to the effort to keep the force now in France fully supplied. with everything an army needs. When other divisions may be sent has not been announced, but the work of making them ready is going ahead day and night in every section of the country.

 NEW YORK. June 2S.-Alexander 3erkman, anarchist, was sharply re- 5uked by Judge Julius M. Mayer in the United States district court here to- lay when Berkman resumed the exam ination of talesmen for the jury that will hear the testimony in his trial md that of Emma Goldman on charges )f conspiring to hamper the operations # the selectiVe draft.
 T am not going to let you take in ermirable time to examine jurors, aid Judge Mayer after Berkman had )ropounded questions to which the prosecution objected. as it had yester- lay. T pointed out to you at your re- quest what improper questions are, and do not propose to have you ask them. 1 will not stand any more nonsense or my more delays. Let us have no more lcting''
 Would you believe it to be a lawful change if we had in this country rev )lution?" Berkman asked one man.
 "We are not going into the discus ;ions of revolutions here" said the eourt in sustaining the objection of the prosecution.
 Miss Goldman was then permitted to examine the talesman. Her questions included:
 Would you be prejudiced against Emma Goldman if it came out in the rial that she advocated birth eontro sor the poor?s
 Judge Mayer allowed the questions to stand as fair.
 The courtroom was closely guarded by secret service agents and only per sons with passes were permitted to en- ter. A large crowd gathered on the outside and one woman. who was said 70 be a follower of Miss Goldman broke her umbrella over the head of z deputy United States marshal wher he was refused admission.
