SENATE VOTESBAN
ONBEER ANDW|NE
Legislation Would Prohibit
July /; President Stops Beer
Making December |.
BILL NOW GOES TO HOUSE

Nationwide prohibition was q step
nearer today as the result Of the
adoption by the Senate last night Of
the emergency agricultural appropria-
ton bill with its dry" legislative
rider and an announcement by the
food administration that President
Wilson would exercise his wartime
authority to prohibit the manufacture
Of beer after next December 1.
Under the legislation enacted by the
Senate, the manufacture Of both beer
and wine would be prohibited; after
next May / until the American troops
are demobilized after the war, and the
sale of all intoxicants for. beverage
purposes would be prohibited after
July 1. Under the Presidents order
stopping the manufacture of beer De-
cember /. wine will be the only in
toxtcating liquor which can be manu-
featured in the United States after
| having been prohibited last year as a
food conservation measure.
Sent Back to House.
The emergency agricultural bill has
been sent back to tho House, which
probably will ask for conference to
| compose the differences with the SEN
ate. Prohibition leaders, however. ex-
pected the House to agree to the pro-
changed by the Senate and House
managers when they take up disputed
sections Of the appropriation measure
| Factors which Influenced the de-
oision to prohibit the manufacture OF
beer after December /, the food ad-
ninistration announcement said, were
! ''the further necessity Of war indus
! tries for the whole fuel productive ca
pacity of the country, the considerable
drought which has materially affected
| the supply of feeding stun for next
year, the strain upon transportation
| to handle necessary industries and the
shortage of labor caused by enlarge
ment Of the Army program"
Warning also was issued to manu-
facturers of all beverages and min
| eral waters that for the same reasons
there will be further great curtai1-
ment in fuel for the manufacture of
glass containers, Of tinplate, for caps,
Of transportation and Of food products
in such beverages" 49,

Maj. Rousseau Of the French war

Frenchman to have known this coun-
try, to have seen true republic, q
government Of the people, with as
much discipline as a monarchy; a gov

much authority as a king; a govern

government consistent with the ideals
of its founders, with the ideals of
Lafayette and Washington"

British Viewpoint Changed.

Pause for q moment and think"
said Maj. Lyen, how unusual it would
have been q few years ago for an
officer Of the British army to Join in
celebrating the birthday anniversary
OF Gen lafayette. Why is it not
strange today? Because our outlook
has been changed. Our viewpoint is
different"
Great Britain feels today, continued
Maj. Lyell, that the American revo-
luton was, after all. q war for Britain
herself, because we realize that. but
for the sharp lesson taught us by the
would never have existed.
The British officer was greeted with
thunder of applause when he ex-
pressed the hope that some day q
statue may be erected to George
Washington in London and on 1t
placed the Inscription. Founder Of the
British Empire
Senator Thomas Of Colorado ad-
mitted that he has frequently been
guilty of twisting the British lions
tail at Fourth Of July celebrations.
Many instances. however, in the
history of the period since the revo-
luton. he said, show why q bond
of friendship now exists between the
two nations.
For a hundred years. the senator
recalled, the navy Of Great Britain
has played no small part in helping
enforce the Monroe doctrine. America
would have had war with Germany
in 1898. Mr.. Thomas stated, if q
British warship had not anchored
and the German man-o'-war which
attempted to interfere with the
operations Of the American Navy in

Amsterdam. - Pan-Germans, with their militaristic aims still untouched. are extremely busy these days. For instance, the Munich Abendzeitung re marks that now that peace is in the air" it behooyes all good Germans to discard the velvet glove" This paper says
 An end must now be made once for all of the peculiarly German habit of handling foreigners with velvet glove. Our instinctiYe German gen tleness and diffidence toward the out side world has brought us nothing but evil and hatred instead of love.
 We cannot exist without our ex- port trade. but if We wait until the world shall so love US that German goods are bought out of pure affec- ton German export trade will not re- eiye even in a hundred years time.

WAR COUNCIL CONFIDENT SINCE
 U. S. ENTERED.
Official Statement From Sixth Session Shows That Allies Have Upper
 Hand.

London confidence i'll the out come of the war is expressed in the official statement of the Supreme War Council following it's session here recently. The council expressed confidence in Gen. Foch and the ad- vantages of a unified command and paid high tribute to President Wilson and to the United States.
 The official statement reads:
 The Supreme War Council held it's sixth session under circumstances of great gravity for the alliance of free peoples The German government, re- lieyed of all pressure on the eastern front by the collapse of the Russian armies and people, has concentrated all it's effort in the west. IL now is seeking to gain a decision in Europe by series of desperate and costly assaults upon the allied armies before the United States can bring it's full strength effectively To bear
 The advantage it possesses in it's strategic position and superior railway facilities has enabled the enemy com mand to gain some initial successes. It will undoubtedly renew is attacks and the allied nations may be still ex- posed to critical days
 The arrangements for unity of com maud have greatly improved the posi- tion of the allied armies and are work ing smoothly and with success.
 Thanks To the prompt and cordial co-operation of the President ef the United States. the arrangements which were set on foot more than two months ago for the transportation and bring ing of American troops will make it impossible for the enemy e gain vic tory by wearing out the allied reserve before he has exhausted lis oWH.
 The Supreme War Council is conf dent of the ultimate result, and the allied peoples are resolute not to sac ridee single one of the free nations of the world to the depltism of Der lin.

 "2. That a real war profit tax at a high rate be levied upon all war prof. its.

Under existing law, earned incomes above certain exemptions are taxed per cent as an income tex and s per cent as an excess profits tax. making total of F per cent. while uneained incomes. derived from secu- rites, etc. are taxed oniy per cent. The 8 per cent tax should be recog- nized as an income tax. and the rate of 12 per cent (4 per cent normal and per cent excess profts) should be retained in respect to earned incomes, while a higher rate than 12 per cent should be imposed on unearned in- comes.
