Thomas May Be Forced
To Quit French Cabinet

PARIS, Aug. 13.-The decision OF the
permanent administrative committee OF
the French Socialist party that French
Socialist delegates shall go to the Inter-
national Social Conference at Stock
holm as announced yesterday, places
Albert Thomas, Minister of Munitions
and Socialist leader, in position SIM
liar to that Of Arthur Henderson, Brit
ish labor leader, who resigned as min
lister without portfolio on Saturday, in
rs much as there is conflict between
the decision of NJ. Thomas's party and
the expressed intentions OF the govern
ment of which he is a member.
In a long speech to his constituents
at Champigny. NJ. Thomas Endorsed and
explained the decision of the party's
committee. He asserted 1t could not
be said the Socialists would go to
Stockholm to promote peace based
upon compromise, but that they would
cndcavor to fix before the world re-
sponsibility for the war and to affirm
what the Allies consider to be just and
right.

German Socialists
Are Urged to Show
England They're "AliUe"

LONDON, Aug. 13.-Commenting on
the decision of the British labor con-
ference to send delegates to the So
cialist meeting at Stockholm. "Vor-
waerts," the Socialist organ OF Berlin,
says, according TO a dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph Company:
eve hope that when the delegates
arrive they will understand their
mission in quite different spirit from
that indicated by Henderson. They
must understand that it is impossible
for them to preach a continuation OF
the war by giving German minority
Socialists additional evidence against
the German government. One single
discussion with the Germans will show
the English how alive they are. This
is an advantage we hope for IN the
coming discussion. Therefore we re-
ioice in this step forward. II cannot
remain the only step"
A dispatch from Amsterdam says
the Berlin "Lokal-Anzeiger" declares
the decision of the British labor party
will not alter anything regarding the
hopes attached to the Stockholm con-
ference in view of the changes which
have taken place in Russia. The paper
does not believe much good will come
from the programme of the LABOR
party. and considers the attitude OF
the American government more logl-
cal in refusing passports to the Amer
lean delegates.

Sim Feiner Is Rearrested
Police Prevent Demonstration in
Honor Of Cosgrave

DUBLIN, Aug. 13.-Austin Stack, a
member Of the Trslee Irish Volunteers,
who was sentenced to penal servitude
for life for completely in the Irish re-
bellion Of April, 1916. but who suisse
quertly was released under an amnes-
ty, was rearrested last night in the
crowd which was waiting the arrival
here Of William Cosgrave, the newly
elected Sim Fein member of Parlia-
ment for Kilkenny.
It is understood that Stack was ar
rested in connection with the celebra-
ton in Tralee Of the anniversary of
the execution Of Sir Roger Easement.
Arrangements had been made for a
demonstration in honor of Cosgrave at
the Sim Fein headquarters in West
moreland Street. but police cordons pre-
vented the people from assembling
Cosgrave addressed the crowd, how
ever, from the windows Of the Sim
Fein Club in James Street. tie said the
Sim Feiuers had no quarrel with tle
English people. but only with the Brit
ish government. The Sim Feiners
would not be dominated by Germany,
he declared, and il Germany tried to
dominate them the lrishmen would
give Germany a proper answer.

Berlin Defers Tax Reform
Government Says Change Must
Wait Till After War

COPENHAGEN. Aug. 10. - Herr
Schiller, the German Under-Secretary
Of Finance, who has been intrusted
with drafting the financial programme
covering war expenditures. says in a
Berlin newspaper that the govern
ment's proposed tax and financial re-
form will be deferred until after the
war. He believes that the number Of
taxes should be as small as possible,
because few ineisive taxes are better
than attempting to spread the burden
with a large number of small taxes
He thinks that due regard must be
had for the psychology of taxation and
that above all it is necessary to avoid
hampering industry. on whose develop
ment depends the hope OF raising the
mighty sums required.
Herr Schiller is member OF the
National Liberal party and represents
the interests of blk industries.
Imperial Chancellor Miehaelis is
quoted in another interview that one
recourse Of the government win be 70
tax raw materials slong with incomes.

When Viscount Ishii made his declara-

cheering became thunderous. The Wis

tinued in vigorous tones:

Ry JAMES O'DONNELL BENNETT
STOCKHOLM, Aug. 13.-President
Wilson's embargo order against the ex-
port of foodstuff to Sweden IN order
to prevent Sweden selling supplies to
Germany is rapidly becoming the hot
test issue in the prediction campaign
now in progress. Birmingham, can
didate. is using strong words in dis
cussing the embargo.
I'VE have accepted what America and
England demanded up to now-namely,
genuine guarantees that no goods COM
ing to us from overseas shall be sent
to Germany, and that none of our
products, which we might be obliged
TO supplement by imports from the
Western powers, shall go to Germany"
he said in a speech to-day.
These demands we have accepted,
but should America and England make
further demands they will be in viola
ton of our rights as neutrals, although
not such brutal violations as when
German submarines sink our steamers
and fire on our sailors.
I'VE must try TO AVOID such sltua-
tion AS further demands by America
and England may create. If our nego-
tiations fail and those powers seek to
prevent US from selling anything to
Germany, new situation will be ere
atoG in which we must take care only
of our own interests, and give no con-
sideration to the interests of Germany
or the Entente Allies.
Therefore. we must make no fur

Colby Sworn In

One Other Vacancy Still Re-

To Be Altered

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Bsinbridge
Colby, of New York, was sworn in to-
day as member of the Shipping
Board.
There remains one other vacancy
on the board, which, it is understood,
viii be filled by the appointment of a
man from the Pacific Coast.
The board took up to-day the subject
of contracts for construction of two
government owned shipbuilding plants
to turn out fabricated steel ships. The
contracts will be let soon, but changes
will be made in the plan of Major
General Cocktails, formerly manager Of
the Emergency Fleet Corporation, who
proposed that builders of'the yards be
given an option to purchase. The new
board. it is understood, intends that the
government shall retain ownership, and
also will ascertain the exact cost Of
fabrication before the contracts are APP

WASHINGTON, Aug. lS.-The move
nent for naval offensive Is taking
the form now of O proposal to send an
American commission to England TO
study the submarine problem and re-
port TO the Administration here. This
proposal is likely to be accepted, for II
is agreeable to the aggressive group IN
the navy who are insisting upon an
offensive, but who have no plan and
have no sufficient knowledge OK the
situation on which 10 base plan, and
equally so to those who do not wish TO
take the responsibility for forming q
fighting policy. To these last it gives
a respite-the necessity for a decision
is postponed.
This commission may either devise
policy for attacking the German sub
marine or the German navy-in which
case vigorous support will be required
from the Administration, such as will
give 70 this country the leadership in
forming a naval policy for the Allies;
or it may report that the present policy
Of the Allies represents all that is pos
sible in the way of naval effort; or 1t
NAV report, what all the best naval
critics are saying, that more aggressive
strategy is called for, but it may fail
70 suggest such strategy.
VIII Need Strong Men
In any case, if the commission is
wisely chosen the best brains in Amer
lean civil and naval life will have been
put into contact with the U-boat prob
lem, and the nation will know what
may be expected.
The selection of this commission be-
comes Of the highest importance. 1t
should be headed by civilians, or at
least by a civilian. This is desirable
for various reasons. The first IS the
reason that impelIed the placing of Sir
Eric Geddes at the head of the British
Admiralty. The fresh unbiased point
of view of a civilian is desirable.
Moreover, civil life is much wider
field from which TO select a man Of
first class intelligence than is the roll
of the navy. Again, civilians will not
be awed by contact with men of high
naval rank and wide experience in COM
mand of ships, ouch as will be met
abroad.
independent Judgment Required
And it is, above all, important for the
commission TO maintain its independent
