that returns have been filed as large
proportionally as in other districts,
and that they have had no infor-

Information has been received that
large number of prosecutions have
already been instituted in other cities

which have wilfully made efforts to
evade conditions of the income tax
law. This condition is not believed
to exist at all in this city, collectors

The week has been the most stir

were flashed from headquarters in
Coblenz to the divisions across the

commanding companies and soon non

their superiors out of their billets
and clubs and relaying the concen-

Marshal Foch.
While the civilians in the small
towns looked upon the military ac-

their packing and to find their he'll
