SAN FRANCISCO, April 12-Attor-
neys for Thomas J. Mooney, labor
leader and convicted of completely in
the plot by which a number of persons
met their death during the great pre-.
paredness parade last June, yesterday
sprung mine under the prosecution by
impeaching the testimony of France G.
Oman, cattleman of Durkee, Oregon,
the chief witness against Mooney in his
trial.
The counsel for Mooney declared
that they have positive proof that the
entire evidence given by Oxman-about
the most sensational evidence given in
all the sensational trial of the labor
leader-was fixed by the prosecution
with the deliberate intent of railroad
ing Mooney" to his death.
They announced furthermore that
their proof was of such nature as TO
enable them to ask for the immediate
arrest of the Oregon cattleman, and
that they will do so at once.

DIRECT TAXATION PLANNED
BY THE ADMINISTRATION
Three and 0ne-Half Billions To
Be Raised BY Sale Of Bonds
and An Equal Amount BY I'm
position Of Special Taxes
(Associated Press by United states Naval
r Radio Service) !"


the house Of representatives is
expected to pass the greatest APP
preparation measure ever intro
duced in congress. ....s
As favorably reported yester-
day afternoon by the unanimous
ways and means committee, the
bill proposes to authorize credits
in the huge sum of seven billion
dollars, an amount greater by
three-fourths than the entire ma
tional debt at the close of the
Civil War, after four years of
conflict. b, d. rt.-.. 49,.
Following the example OF
Great Britain, the administration
plans to raise as much money as
possible by direct and immediate
taxation, financing the war on a
cash basis, father than by loans
and bond issues exclusively,
which would pass the burden OH
to later generations.
There is now general agree
ment that $3,50OO00,000 of war
revenue shall be raised by the
sale Of bonds and an equal
amount by special taxes. AS ont
lined in the proposals that find
most favor in congress, these
taxes will be laid on incomes, ris-
ing in scale as the income rises
on all business profits in excess
OF an amount not yet stipulated,
and particularly on those profits
growing out of the war; on all in
heritances, the rate of the tax
again rising with the amount be-
queathed; on' distilled liquors,
imported tobaccos and manufac-
tured tobaccos of domestic
growth; on theaters and other
amusement resorts; on the sale
of so called soft or temperance
drinks, as we'll as Intoxicating
liquors; and on advertising.
This is a wide departure from
the first forecasts OF the bill,
which, as then outlined, was to
be a credit measure pure and
simple, consisting of a five billion
bond issue, supplemented by two
billions of United States treasury
certificates. ....
President Wilson, Speaker
Clark and Representative Claude
Kitchin, chairman Of the house
committee on ways and means,
held a conference yesterday aft
ernoon at which the President in
sisted that the principle of uni
versal enrolment and selective
draft, as embodied in the bill
drawn up by the general staff, be
given preference over any
thought of depending on a vol
unteer army,
This bill provides that all men
capable of bearing arms, or of
any military duty, shall be regis
tered and enrolled, and that those
best fitted for immediate service
be enlisted by selective draft.
The first increment of this new
army probably will consist of
half a million men, to be followed
by others, as organization is per-
fected to officer them, clothe,
feed and supply them with arms.
Senator Sherman's resolution
directing the President to call for
a million volunteers was chloro-
formed painlessly yesterday in
the upper chamber, Itdied with
out debate on a motion to table.
