vXT ASHINGTON, May g. w -Brazil's entry into the
 W war is regarded here as a question merely of days. Those who have watched South American developments closely believe that the sinking of the steamer Tiquca May 6, may be the incident required to place the more pacific mem bers of the Brazilian congress in the list of those willing to vote active hostilities against Germany.
 President BraZ asked congress yes terday to revoke the declaration of neutrality and if congress accepts his suggestion formal declaration. of war probably will follow immediately. Bra gil was-One of the first South Ameri- can countries to sever relations with Germany The text of the presidents message, emphasizing Brazil's tradi- tional policy of continental solidarity and friendship for the United States, was received by cable today at the state department and at the Brazilian embassy.
 The embassy translation says, in part:
 The Brazilian nation, through her legislative organ, without warlike in- tention, but with firmness, may take in consideration the fact that one Of the belligerents is an integrant part of the American continent and to that belligerent we are united by a tradi- tional friendship and the same political thought for the defense of vital inter- ests as American and the principles aL cepted in international law
 "Accentuating that this policy of continental solidarity is not the policy of the present government nor of the present regime, but the traditional poI icy of the Brazilian nation, I submit the matter to the judgment of the na- tional congress and feel sure that what ever resolution is adopted it will make still firmer the understanding that iUI tunately exists between the United States and Brazil"

WASHINGTON. May 23.-The war revenue bill. framed to bring into the treasury $1,SOO. 100000 through new taxation during the coming year, passed the house by a vote of 329 to 76 late today in almost the same form that it was presented by the ways and means committee two weeks ago.
 All the opposing votes were cast by Republicans. although there are many members on the Democratic side strongly opposed to certain sections of the measures. Virtual re-drafting of the bill in the senate is regarded as certain. Material changes already are contemplated by the senate fin ance committee as a result of public hearings held during the long debate in the house. Final passage of the

(From a Staff Correspondent of the
 Associated Press). GRAND HEADQUARTERS OF THE FRENCH ARMIES IN

GRAND HEADQUARTERS OF THE FRENCH ARMIES IN lu FRANCE. May g (Eyening).- "A marvellous regiment animated by hatred of the enemy and the high est spirit of sacrifice" These words are used in the official army order in conferring the fifth palm on the flag of the famous foreign legion for gal lantry in the recent fighting on the champagne. The regiment is unique in the number of times mentioned and decorated.
 The staff correspondent of the As sociated Press visited the legionaries in their rest camp. where they were recuperating and filling their ranks and heard personal narratives from officers and men whose conduct is so highly praised. No matter what the mems natiorality-and citizens of no fewer than 51 nations are represent ed among the egionaries-after join ing they become imbued with the regiments glorious traditions. They always have been where the fighting was hottest.
 One Regiment Left
 When the war started six battal- ions, forming two regiments, were sent to the front; now only three bat talions remain, fused into one regi- ment Among them still are Amer jeans from various states of the un- ion as well as from all the republics of Central and South America. There are men from every British colony. from all the countries in Europe. Asia and Afica and also a number of Frenchmen who have been attracted to the legion on account of its ad- venturous career. Many Russins, Belgians, Italians, British and Human ians recently have been transferred to their own armies, reducing the le- gion's strength, but Spaniards, Swiss, and South Americans are joining.
 The legion's task for the successful achievement of which it was honored today was the most difficult in the recent French offensive.

 LEGION -HONORED FOR BRAVERY
 DURING DRIVE ON CHAMPAGNE

Its front stretched westward from Auberive, the character of which was included in the objective aimed at. For five days and nights the legion aries fought continuously and steady without tagging They accomplished the task appointed but at the cost of life of their colonel, and many other gaps in their ranks At the end their commander was Major -.
 Thrilling Capture Auberive was entered and carried by lieutenant with a non-commis- stoned officer and ten men. The non- commissioned officer singled-handed attacked a machine gun emplacement and killed 12 German gunners.
 The advance of the battalion oper- ating to the west of Auberive was re- tarded for some time by the oppcsi- tion of an unknown series of German entrenchments formidably armed in what is known as the gulf" It was impossible to attack frontally across the half mile of open ground, but the legionaries succeeded in outflanking the position and made their way fight ing for every foot along a communica- tion trench until they had carried the whole position. They threw 50,000 of their own hand grenades in the course of the five days besides many thousands of German grenades they discovered.
 American Is Honored
 When the fightins was over many of the legionaries slept as they stood.
 The brigadier general told the cor respondent that so many of the le- gionaries were entitled to decorations that he was unable to give to all. Several Americans, however, obtained the War Cross. Sergeant Edgar Bouligney. of New Orleans, who was wounded, already has been awarded the War Cross for bravery. He has served since the beginning of the war
 The divisions captures for the five days comprised HOO German prison CTS. 22 cannon. 5S trench mortars. and 47 machine guns.

MAKING III
SAFE FOR DEMOCRACY

Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Mas
saehusetts has presented to the Sen
ate tables prepared by an expert sta
tistician showing the military quotas
assigned to the Northern as compared
with the Southern states. The tables
are based on population estimates for
1917 appearing in the World Almanac.
They show that quotas range from
$50 per 10000 for Connecticut to 81
per 10000 for Mississippi. The mean
quota for twelve Southern states is
81. while the mean for twelve North
ern states is 30. In other words.
there is an excess levy on the North
over the South of 23.8 per cent. Such
figures are startling to a N%ortherne~.
who will find it difficult to believe that
the 1917 population estimates of the
census bureau, on which the quotas
are supposed to be based. were pre-
pared in a strictly impartial and non
sectional manner.

"INTOLERABLE- SCRUTINY

A committee of Congress to scruti-
nize the expenditure of money which
Congress votes for war would be "in-
~tolerable," said the President to the
Democrats on the committee of con
ference. "Intolerable" to whom? And
why? If Mr.. McAdoo and Mr.. Baker
both thought to be candidates for the
presidency-intend to spend the peo-
pies billions in such wise as to pro-
mote a political boom while nominally
carrying on the war;" and if Mr.. Will
son is to be complacent while his
subordinate in the War Department
and his son-in-law in the Treasury
Department carry on this competition
at public expense. we can see how d
congressional scrutiny of the process
would be irksome, maybe "intoler-
able" But if the money is to be spent
to the best advantage of the nation,
the surest way to make certain of
more money when this is gone will
be to invite Congress- to view the en-
tire field of expenditure.
