T0COVER
new WAR COST
Tax Limit Reached in Bill
Now Pending. Says
McAdoo.

Secretary Of the Treasury Nc
Adoo announced that the new de-
mands of the War Department for
the big army soon to be placed in
France will have to be met without
adding any more taxes to the $1,000
100000 bill. which the House is now
considering. Present conditions. he
explained. make 1t unwise to go fur-
ther than this bill has gone in the
direction of laying taxes upon the
people and the business of the coun-
try.
To meet the army dema nds. which
amount to more than $1,000. 900 900.
1t Is probable there will have to be
further increases in the amount Of
bond sales. and as large a portion as
possible OF the amount needed will
be carried as contracts to be paid
for by future appropriations. 1t is
prob.ble that at least $4,000. 900. oe0
of the amount needed under General
March's estimates will hsve to be
raised by the sale OF bonds.
McAdoo Issues statenent.
Secretary McAdoo's statement was
"a iSsPohsS W
various Senator and Representa-
tives as to what the policy of the
Treasury Department will be in the
matter of enlarging the revenue bill
to take care of the War Depart
ment's needs. Several Senators had
planned to call upon Secretary Nc
Adoo to ask him for his views on
the question. but he explained in a
telephone message yesterday to Sem
ator Simmons, chairman of the
Finance Committee. that no confer
ence would be necessary. The FOL
lowing formal statement of his
views was then issued yesterday at
the Treasury Department:
Secretary NcAdoo stated today
that IL is not the intention of the
Treasury Department to ask for
more than $4,000. 100000 of taxes for
the current fiscal year. He ex-
pressed the belief that 1t was un-
wise to go further at the present
time and that conditions that may
develop IN the future will determine
the question of further increases in
taxation"

Cousin, Expected to
Recover.

Little Evelyn Hatton. 17-ysar-oId
victim. of a shot fred by her cousin.
Hugh Tracy. 16 years old. also In
sists that her cousin must have
turned the revolver on himself when
he realized that he had shot her.
The girl is in the Emergency Hos
pital in critical condition. with q
bullet wound in her left arm. The
boy was dying when the police au-
thorities reached the room where
the shooting took place, SIS N street
northwest.
The story told by the girl wednes-
day night when taken to the hospital
and repeated yesterday to Detective
Joseph Conners and Mrs. Marian
Spingarn, director of the woman's
work in the police department, Ii that
she had gone to the house where the
shooting occurred at the request of
her grandmother. Mrs. Bertha Wal
lace, to turn on the lights for the
boarders. Going past her grandmoth-
er's room she saw her cousin playing
with revolver. and warned him that
he had better lay 1t aside.

proceeded to show her the way "the
Marines were killing the Germans.
AS she started to leave the room the
gun went of and bullet passed
through her arm. Later this bullet
was found under a lounge, where II
had evidently rolled after striking
the opposite wall.
Crying for him to "see what he had
DONE" the girl ran down the steps
toward her home. and as she ran she
heard another shot-the shot that
ended young Tracy's life.

heye that the story Is the true one
and declare that the two cousins were
the best of friends.

ministered to her the night before.

amining her closely. It was decided
that 1t would be best to wait until
this morning before questioning her
at length.

night that he believed the girls ac-
count Of the affair, and that he did
not expect to obtain a different story

MICROBE HUNT
is NOW ON
Public Health Service Seeks
Spanish Influenza
Cause.

Surg. Gen. Rupert Blue, Of the
United States Public Health Service.
has asked the Division Of Medicine
of the National Research Council to
determine the exact nature of the
microbe or micro-organism which is
causing the so-called Spanish in
fiuenxa."
To get prompt action on this sub
ject Surg. Gen. Blue has addressed a
letter to Mai. Richard NJ. Pearce, the
chairman of the National Research
Council. which is represented in all
the States. and has telegraphed all
the State health officers to send to
the Public Health Service here all in
formation as to the disease in their
jurisdictions and also report the ap-
pearance of IT at any new centers.
In his letter to Chairman Pearce
Surg. Gen. Blue said: I'm view of the
Importance which outbreaks of in
huenza will have on war production,
the bureau desires to leave nothing
undone which will contribute to our
understanding and eventual control
of the infection. Information Is espe-
cially desired as to the nature Of the
Injecting organism; 1. e., whether 1t
is the Pfeiffer bacillus or some other
micro-organism. and whether 1t is
Identical in the outbreaks In differ
ent parts of the country.
"The Bureau would deem II val
liable service on the part of the Ma
tional Research Council IL the coun-
ell would arrange for suitable
laboratory studies to aid In deter
mining this point as speedily as
possible. and would be glad to as
sist by having comparative studies
OF pure cultures from various
sources conducted at the Hygienic
Laboratory in Washington"
sheuld Instruct Public.
DR.. Blue has asked the State
Health ofiicers to wire Immediate
ly information as to the outbreaks
OF influenza in their respective
States"
He said yesterday;
Health authorities throughout
the country should at once inaugu-
rate educational campaigns, teach
ing by all the accepted methods the
way in which respiratory infections
are spread. the precautions to be in
sisted upon to safeguard the well,
the Importance Of building up bod
lily resistance by a nutritious diet,
including plenty of milk, and by the
free use of fresh air. the evils of
overcrowding, and the like.
"As an example of what can be
done in this direction, I recall the
effective Don't Sneeze-Don't Spit
campaign carried on by the New
York City Health Department some
three years ago. The slogan of
that campaign was Cover up every
cough and sneeze; II you don't you'll
spread disease. This Is sound and
eminently practicable advice"

GROCER Is PUNISHED
BY FOOD OFFICIALS
6. N. Fines Charged with Violating
Sugar Rationing Rule.

Evasion of the sugar regulations
has led to trouble for George N.
Fries, a grocer in the Center Market.
An unlimited unfair order has been
Issued against him, prohibiting all
licensees from buying or selling him
goods. This is practically an order
which will make him close his stand
Unless it is soon rescinded.
: An Investigation by the Food Ad-
lninistration showed that Fries had
been selling sugar in 10-pound lots to
Individual customers, thus violating
the regulation relating to sugar ra-
roning which provides for two
pounds per person per month. In or
der to conceal his violation of the
Regulation he has been having his
Patrons sign receipts marked merely
20. X, instead OF signifying that they
eere for sugar, it is alleged.
