GERMANY TO FACE
GREAT WAR DEBT
| FOLLOWING DEFEAT
Huns Still Hope, However,
to Compel Fer Enemies
to Bear Part of
Burden

New York, April 13.-Germany would
have to provide for war debt of about
ID, SOC. 100000 marks if the war should ter
inmate unfavorably to her this summer
Prince Fugger recently declared in the
Bavarian Chamber of Deputies. accord
ms to German newspapers received here
inls, ne said, would include 10000 900 900
marks to meet the short-term and long
term loans for war requirements and
appropriations for the restoration OF
| eastern Prussia and the German colo
mes 1t included also, he said, 3,5OO, oe0,-
abroad
Prince Fugger estimated that 1860
vV'VVV marks would be required to meet
the annual expenses, and said that this
was four times the sum required for
that purpose in peace times The empire.
he said, would be compelled to resort
and more and more to direct taxation.
and this would endanger the political
independence of the federal states. Pro-
posals to provide the sums necessary in
vowed war tax amounting to a con-
hscation of property, declared the prince
he asked whether the government was
willing to outline the financial situation
OF the empire. In reply, the Bayarian
prime minister, Won Breunig, said that
Germany would need about 10000, 600 600
iidrhS more annually than before the
war. He estimated the running expenses
at about 14,000,000,000 marks a year il
the war did not last very much longer
To meet these requirements, the Ba-
varian finance minister declared that adj
ditional taxation would be necessary this
year, and that the German people must
meet these demands in spirit of sacri-
flee.
He explained also that Germany hoped
to compel her enemies to pay some Of
her war debts. ut is of special impor-
tance,' he said, ito demand from the
enemy as far as practicable a CORE
spending contribution for the reduction
OF these burdens. This is so well under
stood that the repeated emphasis of it
now may seem superfluous. To what
extent the imperial government may
make such a demand will depend, OF
course, on the further development of the
military and political situation. I'm
avoidably heavy as the burdens of the
empire must be. it may, nevertheless, be
expected that the prosperity which will
follow the war will give the German
people the means to carry these burdens.
The government cannot ignore the ne
cessity of making far-reaching demands
on all classes of the population If the
whole structure of credit is not to be
brought to the point of collapse

English Papers Increase
Price on Account of
Lessening Paper Supply

London, March 25.-(By Mail.)-The
last 1-cent newspaper in the British
Isles. the Daily Express, has now gone
up to cents. London now has one
G. cent morning paper, two at cents,
and the remainder at 2 cents each.
The afteHoon papers are all cents,
except one. which sells at cents.
The general exhaustion of the pa
rer supply has also caused decrease
in the size of practically every news
paper in the country All the papers
now restrict the space given to adj
vertisers and most of them have adopt
ed a policy of refusing big adver-
tisements. Several are refusing adver-
tisements altogether, depending en-
tire1y on revenue from circulation.

Voluntary Beer Rati0ning
Is Suggested in England

London. March 16.-tBy Mail.)--A
scheme for the voluntary rationing OF
beer in England is being arranged be-
tween the governments liquor control
beard and the liquor trade. The inten-
ton is to allot supplies of beer 70
the saloons in proportion to the de-
munds of their regular customers"
much as butter and margarine are al
lotted to the groceries. BY this meth
cd it is hoped to keep up regular
supply to prevent the necessity of sa-
loonkeepers having to hang out a
sign, mo Beer for days at a time,
as has recently, occurred. Each re-
taller will henceforth obtain a limited
allowance daily and it will be his BUS
mess to ration this out among his
regular customers.

The picture, "Dodging a Million,
at the Temple last night. was some
thing original, as well as being extra
interesting. Mabel Normand starred
in it, and for good looks as well as
excellent acting she has few equals.
The story is full of fun. but it isn't
lacking in pathos, and has some
strikingly dramatic situations. 1t
shows how without intending to de-
ceive, but simply by other peoples
neutrality-suspicious., one can. become
woefully tangled in web of deceit
The picture is repeated tonight, and
we can sincerely advise everybody
who didn't see it yesterday to go this
