FOUR YEARS. TO DESTROY
At Present Rate of German
Warfare World Would
BE Without Ships.

Washington. Feb. s. - Germany's
ruthless submarine warfare continued
with the success d the past three days
would destroy within a short time a
great part of the worlds tonnage.
Officials here estimated today on
records of the past three days since
expiration of the time allowed in the
German proclamation, for ships at sea
on February ] to get into port. that
vessels were being sunk at the rate OF
n million tons per month, the amount
German naval authorities set as neces-
sary to starve the British Isles. At
that rate it would take just four years
to destroy the tonnage of the entire
100000 tons--if all the
worlds ships ventured into the war
zone.
Iloyds report puts the tonnage
sunk February g., 6 and Z, at about
$4,000.
The world turned out in 1916 less
than 100000 tonnage of merchant
vessels. During the year the Germans
sank a trifle more than that. making
the net loss in the worlds shipping
about one and one half per cent.

fused to make any changes whatever
in the provisions or language of the

Governor Bamberger returned the

without his signature. suggesting that
the legislature remove the ban from
malt and brewed drinks containing not
to exceed one half of one per cent al
cohol.
The Young statewide prohibition bill
which will become effective August 1,
1919, is one of the most drastic dry
measures passed by any states. I'm
der its terms mere possession. of alco-
hol is unlawful. except for mechani-

poses.

Complete REVENUE BILL
Democrats Of Senate Finance
Committee Agree Upon
Measures Terms.

Washington. Feb. s.-The adninis-
tration revenue bin. designed to raise
approximately $25o,oOo.ooo ana au-
thorizing a bond Issue of 100000. 900,
was practically agreed upon today by
the Democratic caucus for approval
tomorrow might.
Efforts to. induce the committee to
reduce or eliminate the proposed ex-
cess profit tax of per cent on net
incomes Of o-partnerships and cor
porations were unavailing. 1t was. de-
cided. however to clarity the language
Of the measure as it passed the house
in order that there may be no mis-
construction. The exemption Of $4,000
and 5 per cent profit on investment it
retained.
The COMMITTEES agreed to amend the
bin by accepting the flat tax Of /.
cents a pound on o1eomargarine pro-
posed by Senator Underwood in lieu
o. the present practically prohibitive
tax of 10 cents a pound. Dairy inter-
ests were greatly opposed to the
amendment and will be given a hear
ing tomorrow. Increased inheritance
taxes and munitions excuses as carried
in the house bill are retained.

GERMANY WANTS OLD
TREATY REAFFIRMED

Berlin. Feb. S.-Via London.-The
German foreign office last night asked
James w. Gerard. the American am
bassador, to sign proposal reaffirm-
ing the treaties of 1879 and 1928. The
ambassador referred the government
officials to Spanish and Swiss inter-
mediaries.
The treaties have reference to the
rights of nationals residing as merch-
ants in either country TO continue
their residence there for months for
the purpose of closing up their bust
ness.

Upholds Gerard's Action.

Washington, Feb. 8.-Amba ssador
Gerards refusal to enter into any sort
Of negotiations with the German for
eign office is approved by the state
department as the only possible
course for him to pursue in view of
his status of a private citizen. Any
communication from the German
government regarding the treaty or
any other subject would have to be
carried out through the Spanish or
Swiss diplomatic representatives in
Berlin, who are looking after the in
terests of America and Germany.
The basis of the German PROPOSE
ton to reaffirm the old treaties, which
among other things provides that in
case of war the citizens Of either coun-
try in the others territory shall have
nine months in which to dispose of
their property and leave, is found in
the fact that this course was necessary
to continue the conventions N exist
ence as q result of the enactment Of
the seamen's act by congress several
years ago. That act terminated all
treaties containing provisions in con-
flict with the new legislation for the
protection of the seamen.
There has been no announcement of
the American governments attitude
toward formal reaffirmation of the
pacts. Officials already have made it
clear that the spirit of the treaties
will be observed in the treatment of
Germans in this country, though there
is some disposition to oppose any ex-
changes with Germany on the sub
sject.

He is so full of JOY and cheer,

These little trifles never fret him;

They beat him up for all they're worth,
And yet he always comes up smil-

Though chased till he is out of

Though often on the brink of death,
Though beaned and battered some

With grins and smiles he sees it

and anyway" the Double Chin

The Bald Head Frightened up at
this and the Double Chin went on his

KANSAS CITY CLUB
TO BE REOpGANIZED
Use Of Young Players Plan Of Mana
ger Ganzel-Is Disappointed
With Clubs Showing.
(By Assoeiated Pressl

Kansas City, Mo-. Aug. 2s.-Recon-
struction of the Kansas City club OF
the American association with young
players is the plan OF Manager John
Cancel who is keenly disappointed
with the showing OF the team this
season. It was the first time in years
that CAMEL has piloted loser. He
has won pennants in at least two
leagues. giving Rochester of the In
ternational league several in a row.
CANCEL believes that young players
will give the club speed. He has
several deals on the fire, some of
which may materialize before the
close OF the present season, and 9TH
ers during the winter months. Sew
eral Of the veterans Of the club prob
develop a speedier club. This is one
OF the reasons for the release OF Jack
Lelivelt, a 800 hitter.
"Pll admit that Lelivelt is valu-
able, batter" CAMEL explained, ''but
he was not fast on the base; neith-
er did he cover enough ground in the
outfield. / am going after fast
youngsters with the hope Of building
a winner for the 1918 season. i pre-
sumo, OF course, that the American
association viii open its season as
usual unless the war situation be-
comes critical"
When the season opened, CANCEL,
considered his team a strong con-
tender for the pennant. The fact that
it set a record for the association by
winning fifteen games in q row shows
that CAMEL had constructed a pow
erful team, but injuries to several OF
the players Slapped its strength.

Of speed in the home stretch and
overtaking lima Jay which was lead

second heat and setting a fast pace,
the mare never was headed. Murphy
again challenged in the last furlong,
but Royal Mac did not respond. The
time for this heat was 2:06M, the
fastest heat of the race. lima Jay
won the third heat in a driving fin
ish from Bacelli with Royal Mac
third.
Walter Cox's North Spur was pick
ed to win the 2:21 trot, but the Brook

speed for him and won in straight
heats, although the finishes were
very close.
The 2.13 trot went six heats be-
fore Jess Y, the popular choice was
