tax Of fifty percent in case of failure
| to file the return within the time pre-
scribed by law, and 100 percent in the
case of a false or fraudulent return
1t is provided, however, that in ease OF
delinquency, if the return is voluntari
ly filed without notice from the col
lector, and it is shown that delay il
fling was due to a reasonable cause
and not to wilful neglect, the fifty per
cent additional tax will not be as
sessed. A statement of the cause OF

British Labor Party

The Presidents War Aims Are Ei dorSed As Those of the
 British Labor Party.

Nottingham. Jan. 23.- There has been small encouragement for the German emperor and the central powers in the proceetNngs of the British labor party thus far. The leaders of the party show a deter imitation to take a strong lire fin sup port of the war as the only means of obtaining democratic peace, and in this way they appear to have the loyal support of a majority of the delegates.
 Each delegate as he arrived at the convention yesterday or today was handed circular entitled, British war aims which was a copy of the message sent to Russia in the name of British labor few days ago. This message is the keynote of the whole present policy of the labor party. Its war aims show no very great diver gence from the statements by Presi- dent Wilson. Premier Lloyd George and other allied statesmen.

PEOPLES COUNCIL DELEGATE
 RUN OUT OF TOWN
WAS ATTENDING 4 CONVENTION OF THE SOCIALISTS AT
 MITCHELL, 6. D.

3litchell, 2. D., Jan. 23--Winiam C. Rempter, of Parkston. $. D., execu- tive secretary of the South Dakota branch of the Peoples Council of America, and a delegate to the state convention of the socialist party here, was forcioly elected from Mitchell today and the convention which he was attending broken up. This action, it is said, was based upon re- ports that Rempfer instituted sedi- tious activities at the meeting.
 The convention of tho socialists was broken up by local police on or- ders of Mayor J. E. Wells.
 Rempfers ejection from the city came late today. He was captured on the street by six men and hustled into an automobile in which he was driven four miles from town. There he was set upon the prairie, and, ac- cording to reports, was told to pro- ceed afoot to his home in Parkston. and warned not to return to Mitchell. No violence was done to Rempfer.
 Parkston is about thirty miles from Mitchell.
 The meeting of the socialists, at- tended by about thirty delegates, was opened under sanction of city officials in the city hall auditorium. Police officials, 1t is said discovered that Rempfer was the guiding spirit of the convention. According to the police, Rempfer drafted the platform, which was under consideration by the dele- gates. Mayor Wells, who was at Sioux Falls, on advices from the po- lice here, wired an order that no Rempfer meetings should be per- mitted. The police thereupon broke up the convention.
 Announcement was made by the po- lice, however, that the socialists would be permitted to hold meetings here, but that Rempfer would not be allowed to dominate them.
 The platform being considered by the delegates is said to contain a number of the demands from the Peo- pies Council According to reports here tonight Rempfer reached his home at Parkston and announced that he would appeal to the governor for an investigation of the affair, He also declared he would institute crim- inal action against the party which spirited him out of town, according to the report.
