Washington. April Reliability of

of the ways and Ear committee to
agree on tariff schedules probably will
result in the omission from the new
war revenue measure all proposed
levies on goods admitted to this
country free. -.
A subcommittee consisting Of
Chairman Kitchin and Representa-
tives Rainey Of Illinois, and Dixon Of
Indiana. Fordney Of Michigan, and
dition to this amount. a sum Of $780,
Longworth Of Ohio. conferred today
variance on most features Of the pro-
posed emergency tariff. Later Mr..
Kitchin declared there appeared to be
little chance Of tariff features being
included in the bill.
More Revenue Needed.
Exclusion Of the tariff section will
make necessary the raising Of approx
imately $206.000,o0o additional reve-
nue. from other sources under the
suggestions submitted to the commit

such imports a. tea and coffee. crude
rubber, hides and skins, tanned leath-
er and boots and shoes, raw wool and
silk, unmanufactured cotton, crude
cocoa, manufactured tin and manu-
features Of iron and steel had been
contemplated. -,
Although committeeman say they
have not decided where the addition

of no tariff changes, it is generally
reported that they plan to make the
increase IN corporation profits.

SINKING SHIPS WITHOUT A

It was extremely hard to believe
the accounts Of the alleged atrocities
committed by the German invading
jarmy In Belgium in the early days of
the war. It would have been hard to
believe such tales Of any Christian
nation; yes, even of the terrible Turk
who is noted for his cruelty, yet as
the war has progressed there has
been no let up by Germany Of her
warfare Of frightfulness. In fact it
has grown steadily, which forces one
ITO admit that the German mind seems
60 ' constituted as to consider no
fHsrime too terrible to commit in be-
}lalf OF the FAtherTand.

Germans guilty Of the murder Of Bel

Developments Of the Day.
The salient developments Of the day
here were the following:
Hntimations from the State Depart
ment that the Swedish people must
not be prematurely Judged for the
faults OF the government or to be
more specific, the faults OF officials
sacrificing Of neutrality in the inter
est Of the Wilhelmtrasse.
Definite statements that the Unit

the question Of whether or not tho
Stock holm foreign office knew the
contents Of the Luxburg kilograms as
having any bearing on the interna-
tional breach Of faith in Forwarding
them to Berlin.

ment OF the possibility that Swedish
official sources may have been used
to convey information to German u
boa's concerning the arrival Of Amer
lcan destroyer forces and the trans
ports OF the Pershing expeditn in
European waters.
News Leaks to Germans
1t Is known here that the Germans
by some mysterious means obtained
advance information about the first
destroyers sent to Europe and mined
one OF the harbors in the hope OF
owing them up.
1T has likewise been practically es-
tablished that German submarines
had advance inform ltion of the rou
which the first contingents Of Presh-
ing's transports would probably take.
No one here has yet been able to
establish how this information was
OBJ aimed The proof of duplicity be-
tween the German and Swedish for
eign office lends color to the belief
that this informatin, like the Lux
burg kilograms, may have been part
OF the official business" Of the for.

offer Of Cuba to furnish training
grounds the War Department has at
hand ready solution to the problem
OF the training Of negro troops.
When there are SO many other avail
able locations for the training Of
negro troops, and locations even
moro desirable, It is false and dan
gerous policy for the War Depart
ment to insist on forcing these negro
troops on a citizenship that does not
want them, and where, even IL they
are not objected to, their very pres

friction and race rioting.-Charlotte

Eat More Vegetables and Fruits.

Eat More vegetdD1es dnd
In summer it is advisable to eat
fruits and vegetables freely. In the
first place they commonly are plentiful
and cheap then; second, they are bet
tex for you in warm weather than
heavier foods; third, they are produced
closer to your home, thus requiring
less transportation; fourth, they may,
to a certain extent, take the place of
more concentrated foods which stand
long shipment better and which are
needed for the soldiers and the people
of other countries.
