ILTALY. NOT SEEKING CONQUEST.
Prince Cndine Tells Senate His Ma
ton Will Do Nothing to Interfere
With Peace.

Washington, May 31-"Italy will
never allow her aims to be block to
any peace terms that the allies may
see fit to accept"
This statement was made tonight by
a member of the Italian mission in an
attempt to spike persistent rumors
that Italy's aims in the war were
such that they would hold the rest OF
the allies from making any peace
terms until Italy had accomplished her
aims.
"Italy is fighting with the same aim
that every one of the other allies is, "
the mission members said. 1--WE seek
to retail only our own territory and
reports that we are fighting for the
cosquest Of large sections of Austria
are too ridiculous for credence."
To Montenegro.
"Cable dispatches from Austria have
said that the Vienna administration
has decided they can not make a
peace unless they dominate Mount
IIovecen. Whether or not this is true,
we do not know. for we have no over
lures to that effect from Austria. How
ever, even though Mount Loyecen IS
a most dominating and strategic point
we are not worried over iustria's at
tempt to gain it and should she do this
we know it will not hinder any peace
move, for the allies have said there
can be no peace until every nation
holds it's on territory. Mount Love-
cen rightfully belongs to Montenegro
and we want it to go to Montenegro.
However. no one is talking peace
and there is nothing to fear. Italy
will prosecute her great drive and
when the time comes for peace we are
certain Italy's aim will have been ac-
complished by the overthrow of auto
cracy in the favor of liberty"
Prince Udine, head of the commits
sion, spoke to the senate today. Stand
ing in full uniform behind the vice
presidents desk he said in broken
English:
"You, America, bring us something
far greater than the help of men, of
wealth or of food. You bring us the
sacred recognition of our right and
moral confidence and the conviction,
rather the faith that our cause is holy
and that the free democracies and
even the greatest among them share
our feelings, our spirits and our h "'s
'By proclaiming that right is re
than peace, that autocratic goverA-
ments supported by force of arms are
a menace to civilization by affirming
the necessity of guaranteeing the
safety of the worlds democracies; the
right of the small nations to live.
America has through the action Of her
president acquired title of merit that
history will never forget
The prince was accompanied by all
the members of this commission.

NO PROHIBITION
DURING THE WAR

Washington, May 31.-No action
will be taken by this congress toward
prohibition, in the opinion OF Senator
Simmons of North Carolina. This is
an interesting prediction coming
from the North Carolinian. He is the
chairman Of the senate rnance COM
mittee which now daily deals with
the great war revenue bill. The COM
mittee is now puzzling how it would
be possible in the case of prohibition
to raise substitute for the vast rev.
enue from the tax on spirits.
The senator thinks that no matter
what rate of taxation is now agreed
upon, there is a strong likelihood that
this may be increased further next
year. The committee shares this view
and is therefore more anxious, it says
to adopt an equitable taxation rate as
a basis.
Some interesting changes were made
today by the committee in the revenue
bill. It was decided to increase the
excise tax on coffee to 2 cents per
pound and to 5 cents per pound on tea.
1t is expected that the coffee tax will
realize some $1S.000,000 and the tea
tax about s3.000,000 annually. The
committee figures that these taxes to-
gether with the taxes to be imposed
upon sugar and cocoa will produce
about $80,000,000 a year.
A very important change agreed by
the committee was the elimination of
the present 1912 PEI cent. tax on
war munitions. This now raises about
s23, 100000 annually, but the commit
tee thinks that the munition manu-
facturers are sufficiently taxed under
the levy and excess profits tax.
The 10 per cent. tax which the house
proposed upon railway. Pullman ana
other tickets, connected with transpor-
tation, was cut in half. However. the
new tax of per cent. would apply to
steamship tickets as we'll and this new
phase is expected to make up the de-
ficiency.

CUTS ROWN
GEN. WOODS ARMY PLANS
Only Six. Instead of Twelve, Perman-
ent Army Buildings to Be Erected
in Southeast.

Charleston American.
Washington. May 31.-Southern
members Of congress who are interes-
ted in the location Of army canton
ments and camps for the conscripted
army were thrown into a frenzy to-
night by the information that came
from the War Department mat the
number of cantonments had been re-
duced from 80 to 16 and that the de-
partment of the southeast would Sc
cure only six cantonments instead Of
II as originally planned.
Silent.
The War Department is absolutely
silent as to its plans but from 1nfor-
nation that is authentic it is sure that
the general staff has completely re-
vised the original plans under which
Gen. Leonard Wood has been work.
ing and that there will be only l6 can
tonments and these for the new army
and Is for the national guard. A
cantonment being permanent IN
stitution built Of wood for extended
use. it has been found by the con-
struction department of Council OF
National Defense that it will be I'M
nossible to secure lumber and mater
ial and labor to construct 80 can
tonments by September 1, for 5000 .OoO'
600. as planned, and tentative plans
have been made by the general stan
to have only 16 of these with six IN
the southeast.
No Reduction.
The number of army sites will not
be reduced. however The 16 camps,
or tented institutions for temporary
use. will be erected instead OF that
number of cantonments as originally
planned, and in these the national
guard regiment units of the six de-
partments will be sent.
The best information obtainable here
is that cantonments will be located at
Columbia and Greenville, S. c., At
lanta and Fort Oglethorpe and that
one will be given to Tennessee and an
other to Alabama.
The Alabama cantonment will prob
ably go to Montgomery and the Ten
nesee cantonment to either Knoxville
or Nashville. Imrortant plans for
the movement of the army are also
involved which for the public well
fare will not be announced.

BILL KILLED
BY LEADERS IN CONGRESS
Espionage Bill Sent Back to Commit
tee With Orders That Censor Rule
Be Dropped.

Washington, May 31.-The hopes OF
the administration for censorship
provision in the espionage bill were
practically killed this afternoon.
By vote of 1S4 to IA, the house
recommitted the espionage bill with
explicit instructions to the conferees
to eliminate the censorship section.
The provision authorized the president
to declare what would be publishaole.
Although it had been anticipated
fhat the Democratic ranks would stand
strong for the administrations policy,
no less than 81 Democrats bolted and
voted with the Republicans against
censorship. On the other hand, de-
Spite the recent caucus of Republi-
cans against censorship, ten of that
political persuasion voted against their
fellows.
About Dead.
There seems small chances now that
the censorship will sui vive the decis-
i've blow. Twice has the senate re-
jected application to include such
laws in the espionage bill. 1t is said
Senator Overman will be unable TO
force censorship through the upper
house.
The debate today was long and not
without acrimony At one time Car
lin of Virginia, Democrat, and Gra-
ham of Pennsylvania Republican, in
dulged in a heated argument. They
are both members of the judiciary
committee. Carlin accused Graham OF
vaccilation in his ideas on censorship.
Graham said the committee had de-
clined to hold meeting when he
could be present.
"1he gentleman is here to seldom
we usually have great difficulty in
finding him." caustically said Carlin.
"a man who takes refuge in ques-
ton of facts in personal remarks is
not worthy of being noticed" mapped
back Graham, while the Republican
mSide sppIauded.
It was Graham who led t1e fight
&against censorship and who made the
#notion which carried by such de-
Eisive vote.
Pern1cious.
."This section 4, giving the president
the authority is pernicious," said the
Pennsylvania. There are in the bill
two other sections under which the
obtaining and the publication of mat
ter connected with the national de-
tense is made a crime. No man can
sit down and sanely and fairly read
these two sections without concluding
that there is already in the bill ample
power to punish any villanous news
paper for attempting to publish any
thing for the benefit Of the enemy.
''The section 4 is mongrel produc-
tion. Under it the condition not alone
of the press but of every member of
this house would be tenfold worse
than under the amendment provided
by Mr.. Gard. If one of you told me
information you had heard from the
war department that might constitute
publication
'aThe president may from time to
time designate what may be publish
ed. Suppose he makes no proclama-
ton, then what could paper publish
The section is press mueller and
this is not merely a question of a
free press, but it involves the sacred
and inalienable right of an American
citizen to free speech"
Mr.. Webb, chairman of the judiciary
committee, fought valiantly for the
bill, but to no avail.
