VIRGINIAS ARE IN
A LEGAL SQUABBLE

Washington, D. c.. Jan. 29.-Man-
dal lus proceedings we're begun today
in The supreme court by Virginia au-
tht rites against West Virginia's -.
tir, legislative assembly to compel
levying of tax to pay the supreme
court Judgment Of $12,393, 900 with in
terest, adjudseA- tasAe W st Yirgirla.s
proportion Of the Virginia state debt
in 1851 when West Virginia was
formed.
Papers In the extraordinary pro-
ceeding, without precedent in. Amer.
lean Jurisprudence, were received by
the court, but no action was taken to-
day.
Virginia's petition charges that West
Virginia is temporizing with respect to
the supreme courts decree, given in
1915, and Goes not intend to provide
for payr.er,s of the Judgment within
the GEAR future. Therefore, the court
is asked to order the West Virginia
senate and house of delegates forth
with and at the present session of the
legislature to levy tax upon the
property within West Virginia sufflci-
ent to provide for the pay.Sent Of the
decree and judgment with interest. As
an alternative. the petition asks that

ITALIANS APPROVE
PLAN in ABSTRACT.
DECLARE NATIONS AIM is TO
EFFECT THE UNITY WILSON
HOLDS NECESSARY.

Rome, Sunday, Jan. %, via Paris,
Jan. 29.-"Italy wishes once for all to
free the Italians who are still living
under Austrian tyranny" said Frances
co Ruffini, minister Of public instruc-
tion, in statement today to the Asso-
ciated Press in regard to President
Wilson's address to the senate. Part
Of the presidents message regarding
the possibility Of seeking guarantees
for future peace is supported In Its
fundamental Ideas by the entente
which in It's note sets forth the same
aspiration for stable settlement in
Europe.
Naturally the particular way in
which Mr.. Wilson proposes to safe
guard peace in the future requires dis
cussion. Such a discussion, however,
1t Is the president himself who admits
an Indispensable preliminary to fu.
trre understanding is that the present
war must first be ended. For us-ac-
tors, not spectators-this preliminary
IS of the greatest interest. Therefore
it is essential to see whether our war
aims which involve such sacrifices for
US, are in conflict with those essential
conditions indicated by President Will
son as necessary to safeguard peace In
the future.
"The aims of Italy are indispensable
conditions of peace Mr.. Wilson cited
as an example Of what was needed the
reconstruction of Poland. Italy, hav-
ing lahoriously emerged from bondage
by driving out the Austrians has
among her war aims the attainment OF
complete unity. This is justified LIS.
torically and It's completion will be q
proper act, because italy is working to-
day to settle finally the question Of
her unity.
president Wilson could not find a
better exempliffcation Of his principles
than the war in which italy is fighting
beside her allies. ltaly's aims can be
attained only by victory. since her en-
emy never for an instant has hidden
or modified the principles Of tyranny
and oppression which would negative
absolutely the principles proclaimed
by the president.
"In fact, the statement of Premier
Tinsza OF Hungary shows that Aus
tria- a-Hungary not only wishes to con-
tinue oppression Of the various nation
alities, but desires to extend 1t to the
Balkans, over Serbia. Montenegro and
Rumania. All this Is monstrous and
particularly repulsive to italy whose
situation on account Of the Italians
still under Austrian rule, is unique.
These Italians do not form separate
nation subject to Austria. like Bo.
hemia, but are suffering. and hlJed.
ing part OF q nation the greatest part
of whig has attained its freedom.
italy WI Id be unworthy of her liberty
and STR 9Th II she permitted unchang.
ing Aud Ia forever to grind down her
Italian brethren"

CREASED FOR
NEW REVENUE BILL

Washington, D. c., Jan. 20. --Ths
house ways and means committee met
today to pass on the new revenue bill
and planned to report it back to the
house later In the day so that 1t might
be taken up tomorrow for debate. Re
publicans will seek to substitute pro
tective tariff system for the excess pro-
fits tax and higher inheritence taxes

committee and considered by the house
and the ARMY bill, with appropriations
between $275 100000 and $300,000,000
will follow.
Doubtful As To Program.
Democratic senators still were
doubtful today whether railroad legisla-
ton and other administration measures
against which considerable opposition
has developed, can be passed before
adjournment, now five weeks of.
despite the decision to hold longer
senate session from II a. m. to IL p. m.
daily beginning Thursday.
As soon as the Indian appropriation
bill, now pending in the senate. Is dis.
posed Of, the railroad bills may be
taken up, unless 1t Is decided to await
action on Representative Adamson's
new railroad bill.
President Wilson planned to go to
the capitol tain today to confer with
senators and representatives.

DRY BILL IS O. X.
Attorney General OF Iowa Says Consti.
tutional Amendment Will Pass
Legal Requirements.

Des Moines. Jan. 90. Attorney Gen
eral H. NJ. Havner in an opinion hand
ed down today held that the constitu-
tional amendment providing for pro-
hibition is correct and constitutional as
worded and is. in need OF no further
amendment before action is taken by
the house of representatives. The
amendment with the resolution submit
ting 1t to the people already has pass
ed the senate.
The validity Of the amendment was
questioned by Representative Douglas
Rogers Of Carroll county. democratic
floor leader in the house. who held
that the wording Of the amendment
would IL passed result not in its SUBJ
mission to the people. but to the next
Legislature and that the omission OF a
comma after the word resolved" In
the submitting resolution and the omis-
sion of certain capital letters would
have the effect Of invalidating the
amendment for the reason that it
would not be identical with the one
passed by the thir-y-sixth general as
sembly.
In his opinion the attorney general
held that the wording OF the resolution
was identical with the one passed by
the last legislature and that submission
of the amendment to the people would
be brought about through the passage
of resolution Of which the amend
ment would be part and not by the
amendment itself He cited numerous
precedents for this contention and also
for contention that the omission of the
comma and capital letters would not
change the meaning of the amendment
and could not result in its being thrown
out rs unconstitutional by any court
The opinion was one of the longest
ever prepared by the department Of
Justice. 1t covered thirty-four closely
typewrtten pages.
The opinion is expected to result in
Immediate action on the amendment in
the house. The Joint resolution con.
tanning the amendment has been made

The Franco Belgian front is also
breaking out into activity at many
points. Berlin reports persistent ef-
forts by the French to recapture their
lost positions at Hill 3o4 northwest Of

these are declared all to have broken

Today's reports bring further evil
