DEPUTIES
 IN FRANCE
 MAY DUEL
Turbulent Scene in Chamber As Members Clash in
 Debate.

Paris, Jan. 19-The Chamber of Deputies had a turbulent session yes- terday. It was provoked by an inter- pellation of the government offered by Paul Poncet, a Socialist, concern ing a subscription list opened by FAC tton Franchise, a Royalist newspaper, in favor of French soldiers. A resO- lution raising a question of conh- dence was accepted by the govern ment and was adopted by vote O. c6S to 11S.
 Dominique Pugliesi-Conti, deputy from Corsica, charged that Socialist deputies had founded a newspaper in Limoges with German money and had oollaborated with Swiss newspapers which were notoriously German. Chal- lenged for proof, he gave number of papers to Premier Clemenceau, whG handed them over to the minister of justice.
 During an exchange of invectives between PugliesiConti and Socialist deputies, M. Deschanel, the president, consulted the chamber, which agreed tD withdraw the right of the Corsican deputy to speak. Deputy Pugliesi- Cont refused to leave the platform M. Deschanel put on his hat and left the presidents chair The offending deputy then started to leave the plat form but went back again. The ses- sion then suspended.
 After a short recess the chamber reconvened to vote on an order of the day reproving intrigues tending to civil war. Victor Dalbiez, Radical deputy, proposed to add the words land Royalist intrigues." Premier Clemenceau accepted the addition, providing it should read land Royal ist intrigues or others"
 The premier then proposed a ques- tion of confidence, saying that the government vas determined to put down all intrigues and refused to make distinctions between enemies of the state The chamber adopted this proposal by majority of 250, and the rest of the resolution by show of hands.
 Seconds were exchanged after the session by Pugliesi-Conti and Deputy Mayeras, a Socialist. Pugliesi-Conti also sent his seconds to Jean Longuet a Socialist deputy from Paris. Dep uty Mayeras refused to give satisfac- ton of Pugliesi-Conti on the ground that the latter wilfully had insulted his colleagues.

GERMAN PUBLIC
 IS TOLD BAKER
 PADDED FIGURES

London, Jan. Recommending on the statement made by Secretary of War Baker before a congressional committee regarding war preparations, incline Zeitung of Berlin, says:
 '"The American secretary of war speaks of an American army in France. There is an American army in France, but it consists entirely of wood cutters, railroad men and doc tors, except two or three divisions whose precious lives are being spared in quiet places"
 ''Mr. Baker speaks as if shortly there would be 100000 Americans in France Can the United States spare such a large number of men? The answer is no, because a large part of the army must remain behind for the protection of the frontiers, the coasts, the colonies and for other duties of a political nature. The po- litical situation compels the United States to keep at home the greater portion of it's army and the country can at the most put only 1000 men into the European battle fizIds."

LIQUOR DEALERS OF CITY TO PAY
 J. s. S7oO,OOO

Bridgeport saloonkeepers, liquor dealers and drinking clubs will soon turn over to the government nearly $7OO,OO0, which represents the federal revenue on all liquor stocks in the city. The average amount to be paid in taxes by each license holder is about S2,000 and there are approximately 323 licenses of all forms within the city's limits.
 The federal tax is in addition to the s750 license fee just paid by the sa- Ioonkeepers and combined with the increased costs of beers, wines and whiskey, and the shortened hours a larger percentage of the proprietors will be barely able to make a living wage.
 The amount to be paid by Bridge port dealers would fully equip six or seven regiments and more than triples the governments annual revenue from liquor interests in. normal times The federal government demands the pay ment of $3.10, in taxes on each gallon of whiskey.
 Dealers and sa1oonkeepers who had several or more hogsheads of the bar leycorn brew in store are hit unusual ly hard and in some cases the tax will amount to $3,000 or more from an in diyidual cafe owner.

SAVE SEED CORN FOR CONNECTICUT
 IS ADVICE GIVEN
Big Demand From Western States May Reduce Amount
 Available for Home.

There will be a demand for every tushcl of sound seed corn in the state, according to a report given out by ex- ports from the Connecticut AgricuI- tural College, who have been investi- gating the seed corn situation for the Committee of Food Supply of the State Council of Defense, and they urge seedsmen and farmers to take immediate steps anticipating this de- rand.
 Connecticut produced a fair crop of corn this year which matured suffi- ciently to make some good seed This was not true in many of the western states, even those lying directly in the corn belt. Many acres in Minnesota Wisconsin, Michigan and other corn growing states are practically without seed and they are endeavoring to se- cure seed from Connecticut "It is important" say the experts from the college, that Connecticut take pains to fill their hand" There is no time to lose; get your seed corn now" is the slogan.
 The fallacy of going outside of the state for this years seed is pointed out. Home grown varieties are better adapted to our climate, are more sure to mature, and will yield as well, if not better than foreign seed, says a state ment issued a few days ago by B. G. Southwick, Seed Agronomist, from tha agricultural college. He declares that most farmers plant a silage corn of variety too large and too late and would do better to use some of the cent varieties grown in the state Probably -fifths of our farmers, 2 he says, ''could use Connecticut grown seed advantageously for silage pur. poses.
 The numerous corn shows held re. gently, or scheduled for the next few weeks, have brought to light muct good seed. The Committee of FcoG Supply is anxious that the farmers ol the state take particular pains to cap. italize the information which thc County Agents and the State Agricui tural College have accumulated in or der that Connecticut may have no diff f:culty when it comes time to plan corn next season.

TRIBUTES PAID
 TO JUDGE WALSH BY BAR MEMBERS
Resolutions Read and Made
 Part of Record of Su- perior Court.

Tributes of respect to the memory of the late Judge Robert Jay Walsh of Greenwich, a former judge of the common pleas court and for many years a practicing attorney of Fairfield county, were paid at meeting of the Fairfield County Bar association, held in the superior court room today. Judge F. A. Hubbard of Greenwich presided at the meeting.
 Shortly after the death of Judge Walsh Judge Hubbard of Greenwich, Judge John R. Keeler of NorTalk, and Edwin L. Scofield of Stamford, were named a committee to draw up ap- propriate resolutions. This work was delayed by the illness of ScodeId, and his death last Monday made the report of the committee this morning partic- ularly affecting.
 Judge Keeler related the circurn- stance of the appointment of the com mittee and then presented the resoIu- tions reviewing the career of Judge Walsh, the esteem in which he has been held by the members of the bar, and moved their adoption. It was carried by a rising vote. Judge Kee- Ter also pronounced very IeeHng eulogy of Judge Walsh, whom he had known for 50 years, as 8 schco1mate and later as an associate in the legal profession.
 At the opening of the court the res- olutions were presented to Judge Will liam M. Ma1tbie as coming from the Bar association and were ordered made a part of the record of the court
 Action upon the death of Attorney Hcofield will be taken at a meeting to be held next Friday morning.

'HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT REVERSED"
 SAYS R. R. OFFICER

New York, Jan. 1S-In a statement yesterday detailing the plight of the railroads and the expected relief which the federal fuel order should bring in clearing freight congestion, A, H. Smith, assistant director general of railroads, said that fueling of 100 or more ships held in New York har- bor for lack of bunker coal would have a far reaching effect on the gen. eral situation.
 "When fuelled," he said, they will take cargo which in turn releases freight which is held back in cars on piers, in yards and on side tracks, congesting operations. It is the story of the house that Jack built revers- ed. This is the coal that fuels the ship that took the freight that cleared the space that released the freight from the cars in the yards that blocked the road.'

HOLCOMB URGES STATE TO OBEY
 SPIRIT OF ORDER

Hartford, Jan. 19-Gov. Holcomb issued an appeal today to the people of Connecticut to respond periodically to the order of the United States fuel administration, obeying the spirit as well as the letter or the order. The statement follows:
 '"The recent order of the. United States fuel administration closing fac tries for five days and closing factor ies and many other places of business the following 10 Mondays has given a great number of business men, em- ployes and other persons their first real opportunity to demonstrate their willingness to make serious personal sacrifices for the nation of which they are part. The sacrifices ask they seem trivial when compared with the sacrifices our sons and brotht CTS are ready to make in the trenches. It seems to me that, whatever our our private opinions may be as to the necessity for the order, we should withhold superf1uous criticisms based on what is only a partial knowledge of the situation behind the order and should each one of us welcome the opportunity that is here given us to demonstrate our love for our country by implicit and cheerful obedience of it's dictates.
 Connecticut manufacturers and workingmen have shown g. praisewor- thy attitude toward the order of the fuel administration in regard to clos ing their factories and have complied promptly and literally. I feel sure that representatives of other indus tries and businesses will follow with prompt obedience to the order"

WAR HORSESWILL
 BE CARED FOR BY RED STAR ORDER
Animals Will Have Services of Organization Similar
 to the Red Cross

At last the war horse has won rec ognition for his invaluable services. Through the, organization of the American Red Star Animal Relief, animals in the United States Army will receive similar care in war to that afforded humans by the American Red Cross. The Red Star was organ ized at the request of Secretary of War. Newton D. Baker who wrote to Dr. W. O. Stillman, president of the American Humane Association, sug- gesting the formation of such a soci- ety. MT. Baker wrote in part as fol- lows:
 "All countries in time of war must depend to large degree on the volun- tary assistance of it's citizens, and es- pecially is this so in the care of the sick and wounded, both men and ami mals. The function of the American Red Cross is to assist the government ir caring for the human sick and wounded. The American Humane As scciation could very we'll function in a similar manner in assisting the gov ernment in caring for the sick and wounded animals in it's armies. If your society will undertake this work, the War Department will be very glad to cooperate with you.''
 The Red Star is being developed rapidly by organization of branches and auxiliaries in all the large cities throughout the country. Many prom inent horsemen and several horse breeders associations have endorsed the work. The Shire Club of Chicago ;;-ccec4e2tly rave $500 to the Red Star. Taft, Roosevelt, Major General Wood and other prominent men have heart il.' endorsed the movement. Dr. Still man is director-general of the move ant. which has it's national head quarters in Albany, N. Y.

DENY STORIES OF REMEMBRANCE IN
 AMERICAN ARMY.
Published Statements, Says The World, Are on Au-
 thority of Letters by
 Unknown Authors.
CN. Y. World)

Every falsehood uttered by the Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Morals of the Methodist church to the effect that drunkenness and lust are destroying the American army in France is denied by trustworthy wit nesses, military and civilian. Truth may at length oveFtake untruth, but meantime great harm will have been done and anxieties, already keen, cruelty increased.
 The published islander of this po- lictI bureau hiding behind a great church rests upon a few private let ters the authors of which refuse the use of their names. With such a flimsy basis we are informed that Gen. Pershng's troops are whipped at this moment by debauchery and its diseases; that they ere in hospitals and guard houses by thousands; that the condition of both officers and men is appalling, and that nothing can save them but American Prohibition enforced in France as some credulous people think it is enforced here
 In regard to most things, Prohibit tionists have assumed and been ac- corded the right to speak as they
 
 hearts are bitter and their tongues drip venom. It is one thing, however, to exhaust the vocabulary of detrac- tion upon a political or social foe at home, and emphaticaIly another to apply ibels to the armies of the Ma ton now facing the enemy abroad
 We shall hear in defense of these falsifiers that their intentions were good, but can the authorities let it go at that? No matter what their inten- tions may be, their work is evil and traitorous. There is not an enemy alien in custody today whose hostility to the American cause has been so harmful Not one of the opponents of the Draft Law now in prison is so steeped in guilt.
 Is Prohibition propaganda, deadtier than any with which Germany has familiarized us, to be tolerated sim ply because it wears rather more os- tentatiously than he the Kaiser'S cloak of piety?
