PERSHING NOT A CANDIDATE
General Concerned Only With
Military Duties

Eharon. Pa, Feb. 19.-General John
I. Pershing. commander of the Amer
iNRn expeditionary forces, who has been
mentioned several times as the next
Republican nominee for President, will
not be a candidate. This information
was conveyed in a letter just received
by James Bracllin, Republican leader al
Greenville, from Colonel Carl Boyd
private secretary TO General Pershng
The letter came in reply to a letter
sent 10 the general by Braclin, in which
the latter congratulated him upon the
defeat of Germany and said the Re-
publican party would probably nominate
him for the presidency at the convention
in 1920.
In reply 10 the letter, Colonel Boyd
speaking for General Pershing, said:
General Pershing is concerned only
with his military duties and feels that
he could not consistently become in
terested in anything that would divert
his attention from them"
Brackin did not make public the ell
tire contents of the letter. only that
portion relating to General Pershing as
candidate for the presidential nomina-
ton.

Paris Credits Must Have
Priority at Peace Table,
Says Klotz
URGES ALLIED UNITY
Germany Must Pay Debt in
Full-Tax on French
Capital Planned

Paris. Feb. 19.-Louis l.. Klotz, Min
lister of Finance, announced today to the
Chamber of Deputies when the budget
was discussed that he had completed
consideration of a plan imposing tax
on capital The tax will be spread over
number of years SO the present gen
GRAFTON will not bear all the burden. He
summed up his policy as follows:
First. Claim from the enemy full pay
ment OF his debt; obtain a privileged
position for certain claims require guar
antees for payment from the financial
section of the league of nations and
practice a policy of close agreement with
the Allies in financial matters.
Second. ASK of the French taxpayer
only what is indispensable; institute a
tax on capital which would be spread
over a number of years and repress fiscal
evasion.
Third. oppose all nonproductIve ex-
penditures.
Fourth Continue to appeal to the
public for credit. at the same time lower
ing the interest rate on money loaned.
The minister said that he recognized
that the situation was difficult and grave
and that nothing should be concealed
from the public, but there was no need
of undue pessimism. In estimating the
expenditures of the forthcoming budget.
he said. he was not willing to adopt
the estimate of 1s,000.000,000 francs
(s3,6OO, ,OOO, O00), but recalled that he
had told the Senate last November that
the pre-war budget of 5,OOO,OOO,OO0
francs (S1 900, ,0OO,000) would in 1919
1920 be more than tripled, perhaps
Quadrupled.
"Our negotiations at the Peace Con-
ference" Minister Klotz added must
defend the rights of France. our cred
its must have priority and we must push
vigorously our claims. We must obtain
all necessary restitutions in kind and
we must exact from the enemy surplus
repayment in money of everything due.
We must exact a heavy deposit before
the total damages are fixed.
France cannot be the banker of Ger
many and finance with her own re-
sources the indemnities which should be
paid to the victims Of the INVASION
NJ. Klotz said he hoped that the Allied
and associated powers would remain in
as close union financially as they had
been united militarily with such happy
results. lie added:
The Allies ought to supervise in COM
mon the carrying out OF the engage
ments imposed on the conquered enemy.
They should decide on the indispensable
guarantees for payment by Germany
and should lend each other mutual aid,
thus realizing n financial alliance
against which nothing would prevail"

the preparations for the huge task,
which must be accomplished In a few
weeks.
For this immense Job, the bureaus

The appropriation which congress
has made for the work IS s20,50O,0 900
This amount covers also the ordin-

The census will include not only

all the states as well as for the Dis
