SENATE COMMITTEE HAS MAT
TER UNDER CONSIDERATION.
Under Latest Estimates from War Tax
Bill Express Profits Would Yield
Revenue of $3OO,OOO,OOO.

Washington, June 80. - With revis-
ion of the war tax bill virtually COM
pleted and now totaling $1,449,000, 900
against the s1,S00,000,000 levy of in
creased taxes adopted by the house,
the senate finance committee has con-
sidered authorization of additional
bonds.
Senator Stone formally proposed a
bond issue of $500,O00,OO0. The CON-
mittee plans to reach a decision at
! once and to fix the rate to be imposed
on war excess profits probably Is per
cent
During committee discussion of the
bond question a larger issue was not
suggested, although with a half bill

the bill still would fall short by $780,
100000 and probably more, of meeting
the ensuing years expense
Revenue From Excess Profits.
From excess profits the committee
now plans, under it's latest estimate to
raise $300,O00,00O.
An amendment would exempt from
the tax upon individuals, persons; in
office or employment, including that
OF commercial traveller or agent
whose remuneration consists of a
fixed or definite sum, irrespective Of
the amount of business done or any
other contingency, and a profession,

Will Soon Be Carrying Stars and
Stri pes in Assaults Which Are
Driving Enemy Out of France.

Washington, June 28.-The epocha]
landing of American troops in France
cannot be fully discussed at this time
for obvious reasons concerning the
safety of other contingents.
1t is entirely permissible to say
they are part of the force which will
be under command Of Major General
j. J. Pershing and for whose arrival
the general and his staff have been
arranging ever since they landed on
the other side.
To Be Independent Command.
The American troops will be an
entirely independent command just as
are the British troops, working, of
course, with the French at the head
of operations as they are on French
soil. When the troops have had their
period of preparation behind the lines
they will take a place on the battle
front to be arranged by General
Pershing, in consultation with the 9TH
er military. chiefs. there. They prob
ably very soon will be carrying the
Stars and Stripes in the assaults which
steadily are driving the Germans out
of France and Belgium.
To Have Moral Effect.
The successful landing. while a
source of great qualification to off,
Gals here, viewed from the point sof
being military operation, is regarded
with added significance for it's moral
effect in Germany.

CONSIDERABLE TIME TO ELAPSE
BEFORE AMERICAN FORCES
IN FRANCE CAN BE THROWN
FORWARD INTO TRENCHES.
TOILET FRENCH KNOW
FRIEND is AT HAND
Plans As To Time of Active Partick
patton in HostiIites Closely Guard
ed BY War Department-Vast
Problems to be Worked Out in
Connection With Campaign.

Washington, June 3O.-Complete re-
ports from Major General Pershing
upon the landing of his first expedi-
ton in France are still lacking and
the War department remains silent.
The delay may be accounted for by
the report that General Pershing had
not personally visited 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 is much discussion as to when
the American forces will take over a
part of the great battle line in France.
Plans Closely Guarded.
Whatever plans have been made in
this regard are closely guarded. No
official of any branch of the govern
ment would admit having any knowl-
edge on the subject
In a general way, however, it is
known that .considera BILE period must
elapse before they can be thrown for
ward into the trenches. Vast prob
lens of strategic campaigns, Of politi-
cal effects to be sought and of supply
and supply lines must be worked out.
The men, fresh from the tropics or
from the Mexican border must be care
fully acclimated to prevent sickness
Admittedly the main purpose of
sending the force in the brief period
that was allowed to make ready and
get them across was political.
Friend Is At Hand.
1t is understood to be the sentiment
al rather than practical arguments ad-
Vanced by members Of the French and
British commissions which Influenced
the Washington government in dis
patching General Pershing and his
men.
The great need of the moment as
explained by Marshal Joffre was to
send force with the flag at once to
show the people of France, straining
under the great burden of war, that
friend was at hand.
There will he no letup 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 ready is going ahead
day and night in every section of the
country.
