REVENUE COMMISSIONER
ASKS LAW BE SIMPLIFIED
MI. Hoper Points to Difficulties of
Present Conditions Which ,
I 4. Should Be Overcome.

Internal. Revenue Commissioner
Daniel G. Roper has urged in a let
ter to Secretary McAdoo that Con-
gress enact anew revenue law to sup
plant the old one which has been in
operation since October 3, 1917.
"The law now In effect" says Mr..
Roper, els unnecessarily complex and
contains provisions which conflict
with other provisions. or are other
wise incapable of satisfactory ad-
ministration."
The enactment of new revenue
law, Mr.. Roper asserted, would pro-
duce a sa1utary effect on business
mem in solving grave economic prob
lens incident to the period of recon-
structioh, as they are beset In their
calculations by doubts and uncer-
tainties.
BY exercising a wide degree of ad-
ministrative discretion. he says, there
was bridged the gan created by "the
inadeuuacy of the present law" This,
he added, was accomplished in a great
measure through "the patriotic spirit
of accommodation of the people, in
duced by war emergencies and by
the same feeling of assurance that the
act Of October 3, 1917. would not re-
main in force another year. He said
that he had looked forward to new
law "enfhodying adequate md int lii

GERMAN AGENTS. WERE
ACTIVE IN SWITZERLAND
Frankfort Gazette in condemning
"Terrorist" Service, Depicts Foul.
g.. Work of Hun Authorities. /.

LONDON, December British Wire
less Service).-condemn of the
terrorist" service. organized by the
Germans in. Switzerland Is voiced by
the Frankfort Gazette, in it's issue of
November 23, which gives the. Ger
man public an idea of what was being
done in Germany's behalf in this neu-
trail country at the behest of the high
est German authorities.
"The trials in connection with the
discovery of bombs at ZURICH says
this German newspaper, "have led to
the disclosure of a terrorist service
OF the German general staff In Swift
zerland. With the support Of diplo-
matte and consular courfers. explo-
sives. bacilli cultures were, supplied
especially to Italian and French anar-
chists,- in order that they might prac-
tice sabotage in their countries and
spread disease among the army
horses.
"of course, the German employees ir
this service had not the slightesl
guarantee against the direct employ
ment of these methods in Switzerland
itself. In some of the Swiss news
papers the opinion is expressed thai
the German authorities would not
have been displeased at the outbreak
OF disorders in Switzerland itself, be-
cause they hoped for the consequent.
injection of neighboring countries, oi
course, with the exception of Ger
many, which they held to be abso-
lutely immune.
This terrorist service was not the
mere :werk of subordinates. Quite
definite accusations are made against
even the former imperial chancellor,
Prince Won -Bhelow. Hitherto, in SIM
liar cases. the German public has been
permitted to1earn only half the truth.
Now, when the barriers have fallen
and speech is free, we can give
Switzerland the assurance that this
inEendiafy diplomacy is not counte-
I1anded in Germany any more than it
is in tthe countries which have to bear
its evil Consequences" !

Officers Forced to, Capitulate.

"The only ones who refused to join in
the revolution were about 100 officers.
They came back to Berlin, comnan=
deered the Bauer and Central Victoria
hotels at the corner of Unter den Linden
and the Friedrichstrasse and decided to
hold out, expecting help from the armies
at the front. The revolutionists sur
rounded the hotels. placed machine guns
in the streets from where they could
sweep every window and entrance. The
civilian guests had all taken to flight.
Word was sent to the officers that the
first one to show himself at a window or
door would be regarded as giving sig
nal for the machine guns to open on tne
hotels. The officers remained inside un-
til Tuesday, when they capitulated. This
practically ended-the opposition to the
revolution.
"In the meantime there had been some
disorder and rioting in the poorer quar-
ters of the city. A small amount of
property was destroyed and a few per-
sons injured by the revolutionists. The
majority Socialist party was in posses
sion of the public buildings, including
the royal palace. While the reichstag
held sessions. worknseia and ,solaiers
formed councils. the soldiers and SAILORS

For Zones Of Influences,

Those who favor the enforcement of
International decisions by arms are
divided as to the means. Some favor
the creation of zones of influence,
holding certain great powers respon-
siblei for policing various proportions
of the world. Thus the United States
would police part of the western hem
fsphere. leaving the policing of the
eastern hemisphere to the European
powers. Others object that this idea
is entirely impracticable and besides
does not conform to true internation-
alism. They favor a mixed internA-
tional staff. which would have the
authority to order the troops Of any
nation to the scene Of trouble in ac-
cordance with circumstances-an au-
thority similar to that which Marshal
Foch has exercised SO brilliantly since
last spring.
This whole question will certainly
be one Of the most important at the
coming conference.

ARGUMENTS ADVANCED

PARIS. France. December 1.-The
question as to what extent the allies
should occupy various points in CEN
trail and eastern Europe for the pur-
pose of keeping order is extremely
complicated. Diplomats have their
point of view and liberals and oon-
servatives theirs. and an agreement
IS far from having been reached
After talking to various persons I
feel tempted to present the prob
lens thus. It naturally falls under
two heads:
First. occupation to keep order
throughout the period Of occupation
pendin the decision of the peace
conference, and. second, occupation
later to enforce the decisions of the
peace conference.

Arguments Pro and Con.

2. The arguments for and against
the use of troops to enforce the de-
cisions of the peace conference or the
society Of nations are similrr. Those
in favor of it say the decisions will
remain purely academic unless they
are backed by arms. When necessary
those who break international laws
must be punished the same as those
who break civil laws. The habit of
taking international military action
would facilitate disarmament, as all
law-abiding countries would gradu-
ally acquire the same confidence in
the international authorities which
they now feel toward the national
Those opposed reply that inter-
vention by foreign troops is undemo-
cratic and unwarranted under the
principles of true internationalism
They feel that International authori-
ties at their disposal would ultimately
come to constitute sort of superstate
to which they object, pointing out
that such a superstate might come to
represent the worst form Of conserva-
tism, using it's strength always to
support whatever government might
be in power regardless Of what fn~-,
Of government the people really
wanted. ,:t

Not Many Soldiers Required.

1. Those who favor occupation say
that the war is not over until peace
is signed, aver that the seat OF tfou-
bic lies in what until recently was
enemy teri itory or in Russia, with
which we are still at war, and that
therefore it is our duty to prevent
forcibly all acts of violence until
peace is signed. It would not require
a great number of men. because the
moral power Of their presence
would be sufficient Moreover, the
work of occupation would be equi-
tably divided between the allies. The
presence of cur troops would check
the spread of bolshevism and enapIe
us to ascertain the true conditions
throughout Europe, thus giving re-
liz HE data fo- the in"1 DECISIONS
Those who oppose reply that sucn
occupation would be contrary to the
principle of self-determination ano
W II d serve or 20 'ric
.between the soldiers and the civil
population, which would be trritated
by the presence of foreign troops
1t would require many more men
than one at first imagines because OF
the great extent of territory which
would probably have to- be covered
Thus great number Of soldiers
would be kept under arms longer
than necessary. occasioning not only
additional hardship for them. but ad-
ditional expense for the country.
Moreover, most of the people with
whom disputes have arisen can, If
given the time, be trusted to find a
solution by themselves.
