Washington, May 14.-Opponents of the ways and means committees pio- posal to greatly increase postal rates on newspapers and magazines showed such a strength during debate on the war tax bill today that 1t appeared likely the postal section of the meas ure would be one of the few to be materially modified before passage.
 The attack brought the first defec- ton from the ranks of the commit tee itself, which had approved the bill unanimously and whose members C both parties have consistently ursed its passage unamended. Just before adjournment tonight Representative Sloan, a republican committeeman. told the House that while he would stand behind every other provision in the measure he could not support q postal increase among "a punitive cx- petition against newspapers and mag azines.v
 Moon of Tennessee. democrat, and chairman of the committee, joined in the attack, which proceeded while q large delegation of publishers was telling the Senate finance committee that enactment of the nroposed ,n- creases would force many publications out of business.

The committee hopes to put throush most of it's proposals without import ant amendment. for the opposition has scattered its fire against many inds- vidual sections and has developed a concerted attack on only a few of them. When the measure goes over to the Senate. however. many changes ale expected.
 { Representative Longworth. repub- lican. made long defense of the bill today for the committee, reiterating that while there were some inequa.- ities passage was necessary to give the needed war revenue. He declared 95 per cent of the taxes proposed would fall upon the wealthy or those of moderate means.
 Representative Meeker predicted that enactment of the proposed postal increases would mean the end of na- tional circulation for daily papers and Representative Madden denounced the new rate schedule as the most unjuss tax ever imposed by government"
 Chairman Moon presented two amendments to cut down the proposed rates. Representative Mccormick sug- gested that the whole schedule should be rewritten so that the levies would fall on publications in proportion to their incomes,

President Will Probably Ignore Amendment Placed in Bill-Baker Again Tells Dent Montgomery is to Be Designated as
 One of the Mobilization Points.
II. HIGH ". ROBERTS

Washington, May (SpeeiaL) 1.-The
 administration plan. as presently indi-
 cated. is to offer no further opposition
 to the enactment of the Roosevelt volun- teer provision of the army bill, but en-
 tirely to ignore that provision when the
 bill is law. Representative Dent Of
 Alabama, after conference this afternoon
 with Secretary Baker. declared that to-
 morrow the House conferees would form
 ally agree with the Senate eonferees on
 the Roosevelt amendment.
 That amendment" said he lis not
 mandatory The President will not be compelled to authorize Colonel Roosevelt or any other individual to raise divisions
 of volunteers. It is my guess, therefore,
 that the amendment will be ignored'
 Despite the fact that great pressure in
 behalf of Colonel Roosevelt will be
 brought to bear and the charge of 'pod- ties" which his partisans will prefer, there Is good reason for the prediction of the Alabama chairman.
 There is no question. however, but that the action of the House in overriding Its former vote against the Roosevelt prop osition has caused President Wilson and Secretary Baker acute embarrassment. Never were attempts made to conceal the administration attitude.
 It was known that Mir. Dent check mated and finally overcame the Senate conferees on the earnest request of the President. Following that success, the
 President formally wrote MT Dent thanking him that he had permitted nothing calculated to embarrass the ad- ministration to remain in the bill That the administration is embarrassed at present is evident. However, it is be- lieved that the President will take the bit in its teeth and fail to act on the suggestion of Congress. There is good reason to believe that Colonel Roosevelt, despite his victory win not lead volun- 1 teers to France.
 ! It has been charged openly that the l colonel in offering to raise an army was laying predicate on which to

ZEPPELIN IS SEEN ID BURST INTO FLAMES ON HOLLAND COAST
Overhauled by Battle Plane Air Monster Meets Its Fate-TwO Men Jump

win inc laufels of the war and t;y for third term as President. Ills rartisans will soon charge that tfs attitude of the administration Is due
 fo the administration desire that a
 democrat succeed 8Ir Wilson. They find satisfaction al the same time in
 their confidence that if Colonel Roose- velt is denied commission he wpl
 be able with great success to pose as martyr and intimately accomplish
 his political designs.
 Secretary Baker has a personal grievance in addition to his' official
 embarrassment that the Roosevelt amendment was preserved. He is great ly humiliated that so many Ohio dern- ocrats stood with Roosevelt and Rep resentative Longworth, his son-in- law, against the secretary. resident
 of Ohio, and the democratic adminstra- ton. It is said that he will indorse the action of the President should the
 President ignore the Roosevelt provi-
 sion of the bill.
 Former promises of the Secretary of
 War that a mobilization camp would
 be authorized for Montgomery wera
 renewed this afternoon In confer ence between Mir Baker and Repre- sentative Dent
 | No official statement was authorized
 either by the war department or the i chairman of the military committee. However. the latter informed the rep- l resentative of The Age-Herald follow 1 ing his interview with the secretary
 that there lis no doubt but that
 mobilization camp for Montgomery would be provided for"
 The statement credited to General
 Wood that mobilization camps would be located at Atlanta, Augusta, Macon. Columbia and Montgomery is not cors% firmed by official Washington. I. is stated that no selection would be
 made prior to personal investigations by General Wood
 It is also intimated that should Montgomery win a camp that fact would necessarily obliterate rhe | chances of Birmingham.

Copenhagen, May 4.-(Via London) Prof Oswald Flamm, privy councillor and a resident of Charlotteshurg, Prussia, in an article in Die Woche (Berlin) advocatsj harsher treatment of neutral ships by Germany with the object of intinidatng them into remaining in their home ports and compelling the British to risk their own ships.

London, May 14-In the House of Com mons today John Annan Bryce. referring to the talk heard in foreign countries as to the desirabiity of making separate peace with Austria, which he said was producing a deplorable impression in some of the allied nations, invited the government to declare that in no circum- stances would it conclude such peace with Austria.

 Andrew Bonar Law, chancellor of the exchequer, in replying said there had never been a question of making sepa- rate peace, but he considered the whole matter depended on circumstances.
