MAJ. GEN. C. R. EDWARDS
REPORTS IN WASHINGTON
Led 26th Division, One of First in

Maj. Gen. Clarence r. Edwards. re-
Gently relieved from command of the
26th Division Of the American expedi-
tionary forces on account of illness,

ed to the Secretary Of War.
He looks in fine shape and is pre-
pared to assume his new duties in

Va, without delay. He may be given
a short leave of absence. however. to
visit his family and attend to some
private business.
Gen. Edwards was stationed in this
city for. several years as chief of the

ment. When the United States en-
tered the war he was placed in COM
mand OF Camp Devens, Mass.
There he organized the Goth Divi-

s5,ooo,ooo,ooo Loan Likely.

Mr.. McAdoo's calculations indicate
that the fifth liberty loan, which prob
ably will be foated next spring, will
be around $4,000, 200, 900.
In his letter Mr.. McAdoo said there
was every reason to expect there would
be a reduction in government expendi-
lures during the balance of this fiscal
year. but that it would not, probably,
be at a very rapid rate il a wise policy
of readjustment to peace basis is
to be made.
He said that the United States would
make loans to the allies, and that he
would make recommendations to Con-
gress for legislation authorizing such
loans. The allies will need the money
to buy raw materials and foodstuffs in
this country, he said.

ALLIED SHIPS TO FREE
RUMANA, HELP RUSSIA
Opening of Black Sea and Baltic
Will Speed Relief Work in
Oppressed Nations.

By the Associated Pres.
LONDON, November 14.-Comment-
ing on the arrival at Constantinople Of
allied squadrons. the London newspa-
pers forecast the speedy opening up Of
Russia through Odessa and other Black
sea ports. and predict betterment Of
conditions at Petrograd shortly through
the forthcoming opening of the Baltic
to the entente.
1.-THE way into the Black sea is clear
and great results must follow quickly
the appearance of the allied fleets off the
Golden Horn" says the Times. "By
opening up the Rumanfan coast and the
mouth of the Danube the allies will
complete the task of the liberation of
Rumania, though in effect Rumania Is
free already and her German garrison
under Gen. Won Mackensen is seeking a
pathway home.
when Admiral Calthorpe arrives Off
Odessa and Sebastopol the allies will
have a gateway into Russia and our
coming entry into the Baltic should help
to lift the clouds which stin lie heavy
over Petrograd.
"The German route through the Black
sea to the middle east has already van
ished with the collapse Of our. principal
foe. The wheel has come to full circle
and the tragic isolation OF Russia is at
an end.
.The announcement that British and
Indian troops now garrison the GalIipoh
forts and paraded as the ships passed
closes the grim but glorious story which
began in 1915. Though We failed then.
broke the military strength Of Turkey.
She barred our path. but spent the
fewer of her army in the effort and
never, recovered from it"

DEEMS GERMANY NOT FIT
FOR LEAGUE OF NATIONS
Former French Cabinet Minister
Sees. Need of Moral as Well as
Political Change.


PARIS, November Germany
must undergo a, moral revolution. as
well as a political upheaval before
she can be admitted to a league OF
nations, says Leon Bourgeoise. for
mer cabinet minister. who is president
of commission recently appointed
to study the plan for great combi-
nation of states for the future.
1.-THE universal war has demon.
strated to all nations the necessity
for an International constitution" he
says. This would assure to each ma
ton the sanctity of its rights. Diplo.
matte. and judicial measures could
place a discordant state in intoler-
able solitude, and not, only the state
but it's, citizens would suffer. Presi-
dent Wilson-has admitted the legiti.
macy of economic penalties and hint
ed that they might possibly be usej
against the central powers.
IF this weapon should fail there
would remain International military
Intervention. But economic measures
which would deprive country of raw
materials and interrupt land and sea
transport would be sufficient to crush
resistance"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1918-11-15
Other Suggestions Made.

Other recommendations were:
That income and profits taxes be
payable in four equal quarterly Install
ments beginning March Is in. each
year.
That excess profits tax rates for pay
1ent due next year be no higher than
hose in the existing laws.
That necessary safeguards be pro-
vided for war and excess profit taxes
in the form Of adequate provisions for
a mortization, conservative valuation of
inventories and ascertainment OF mini
mum income which shall be exempted
from the tax to insure the taxpayer
against injustice and avoidable injury.
That war an excess profits taxes be
eliminated entirely for payments due
in 1920, except with respect to profits
on contracts negotiated during the war
period.
That corporation and individual in
come tax rates be increased on incomes
OF 1919, payable in 1920.
That the basis for next years taxes,
payable in 1920, be determined now.
