German Press Indicates
Belief War Is Certain,

Copenhagen, March 29.-There has
been a noticeable absence Of comment
in the German papers of the last few
days on the news Of American war
preparations The newspapers have
printed various dispatches. some from
New York and others from the Anglo
French press. but generally without
comment. The tone Of the headlines
alone indicates the increasing gertrude
that war is inevitable.
The recall of the American repre-
sentatives on the Belgian Relief Com
mission, however. has stirred the edi-
torial writers into breaking their
silence. The Tages-Zeitung' attacks
the American commissioners sharply,
declaring that they were steadily work
ing in English interests and furnished
a regular channel for the transmission
Of military news from Belgium.
The demand for the immediate in

the Socialist and Radical parties have
been advocating for months, has re-

sidering some immediate action on the
reform Of the Prussian franchise. Re

Russia to Make

Minister of Finance Says
Tax Will Not Overbur-

Petrograd, March 29.-The new hnan-
cial programme, which will undertake
TO remedy the deficiencies Of the past
administration and, by means Of a sys-
tenn of revenues, enable the govern

trial profits was outlined to-day by NJ
Tereschtenko. Minister of Finance.
1.-THE country is full of capital said
NJ. Tereschtenko, (which has grown out
of the increased industrial activity
since the beginning of the war, and my
plan is to institute Immediately new

only proper that the government should
have a more adequate share IN THESE
profits.

penses of carrying on the war.

government to make the new revenue :
so burdensome to manufacturers that IL
will discourage their productivity
There is a point at which the govern
ment can reap proper revenue WIN
out depriying manufacturers OF the lar
profit to which they are entitled.

extent il will be advisable to tex the
industry of the country. There Will.
accordingly, be nothing haphszard nor
arbitrary in the manner in which me
system Of taxation will be put into exc
cution.
81 am working in close COOPERATION
with my colleagues in the Cabinet and
will have, ! believe. the hearty support
OF the industrial leaders themselves.
This new revenue will enable the coun-

interest on outstanding loans. Russia

foreign loans. and. judging By the SYM
rathy and support with which the new
government has been greeted by its
allies and in the United States, there
should be no difficulty in arranging a
basis for a continuance of financial as
sistance abroad.
THE most important question facing
the country is provisioning and trans

the speaker, refused to recognize the

Russian events is clearly outlined.
We shall also follow the principle
that we never NEEDLE with the in
ternal problems of other countries.
Ii is now maliciously reported that
Germany wants to annihilate the
hardly conquered freedom of the
Russian nation, and that the Ger
man Emperor wants to re-establish
the rule of the Gar over his en-
shaved subjects. All these are mere
ly lies and SANDER, as | here eX-
pressly state.
"How the Russian nation wants to
construct its home is only the bust
ness of the Russian nation, and we
shall not NEEDLE with it. The only
thing that we hope is that in Russia
foundations may develop which will
make her the strong and firm bIi-
wark of peace"
VIII Rebuild in China
AT Enemies Expense
With reference to Chinese rela-
tions, the Chancellor said:
Our relations with China had al
ways been of the most friendly nat
ure, and if these relations have act
ually been terminated by the Chinese
government | need not tell you that
this is not by the free resolve of the
Chinese government, but that it has
acted under pressure of our enemies.
Financial difficulties, which could
not be mastered during the war by
China also played a fair part in it.
Our enemies object also is to destroy
our trade in China, and to appro-
pirate without labor what has been
established there during many years
by German eflicieu,y and German
industry.
"The result of the war-as | con-
fidently hope-will give us The OPP
portunity to rebuild what has been
destroyed, and to rebuild it at the ex-
pense of our enemies. Then our
friendly relations with China will
revive, provided that China will pre-
serve until then the necessary force
of resistance against the greed and
egotism of her present protectors"

Split Dates from 1905

The split in the ranks Of the Russian
socialists is not of recent origin. Since
the revolutionary year OF 1919 Rus
sian socialism, which Is very lnnueh-
tial force in Russia. has been DIVIDED
into moderate and radical wings. But
the outbreak Of the war changed the
original division. The large majority
of the Russian socialists, including
their big chiefs, took the stand that
radical Russia was to cooperate with
the government in the war against
Prussia.
But there was a small group Of IA
natical socialists whose passionate
hatred of the old regime blinded their
reasoning powers. This group was the
only element i'm the Russian democracy
that opposed the war. At the same
time they advocated and worked for
their country's defeat believing that
Russia's military defeats would bring
about the collapse of Czarism.
II is this last group, headed by
Tscheidze. 4 fiery Duma leader, that
is now appealing to the soldiers of the
Central Powers to rise and throw off
the yoke Of autocracy and capitalism.
Robbed of Its Platform
This group, however. has lost It's
main reason for existence. 1t origi-
mated for the purpose OF causing .he
bureaucracy's collapse. Now, since the
cid regime is gone, il can hardly. sue
coed in creating a strong popular pAeH.
inc. For the Russian democracy IL
NOW. more than ever, convinced thao
Prussian .sn must BE- destroyed before
pcace can be secured in Europe.
The veteran Russian socialists ana
anarchists. like Prince kropotkln'
George Plekhanoff. Vladimir Burtzeii,
Who WELD tremendous influence over
the industrial classes, are dehnitely
committed to sane policies, as SHOWN
b. the declaration of March q.
The peril of the extreme socialists j.:
therefore, exaggerated. They coulo
stir the nation, to some extent, IN the
days Of the old regime, but the Rus
sian people are free to-day. The eN-
tremists no longer can talk OF deteaV
on the ground that it would intensity
popular resentment against the bureau
crazy.
Nor can they cry for peace. as they
used to. because an incompetent gov
eminent was leading the nation TO rum.
To-day the bureaucracy is fallen. Inc
new government is efficient and has the
country's fullest confidence. The eX-
tremsts could possibly clamor for
peace only by justifying and white
washing Prussianism.
Would Invite Destruction
But this they dare not do. IL is
safe assumption that any party or man
in Russia daring to come out for I'M
mediate peace on the basis Of leaving
Prussianism undestroyed would be
wiped out of existence very quickly.
