Coblenz Germany. Aug. 30.-French
troops are in complete control of the
situation at Ludwigshafen, where an
attempt TO establish an independent
republic in the Palatinate appears to
have come to a head early yester-
day. According to German news
papers, a number of adherents of Doc
tor Haas of Landau attacked the post
office at Ludwigshafen, and after a
four hours fight succeeded in over
towering the resistance of postoffice
officials.
Two persons are reported to have
been killed during the fighting. The
followers of Doctor Haas are seeking
to make the Palatinate independent
from Prussia. They are also accused
of desiring to sever the Palatinate en-
tirely from Germany.

terests controlled every club and
every professional player in the

WAR TAX BOOSTS
SPORTING GOODS
10T050 PER CENT
Everything Increased But Base
Balls and Bats, Which Will
Remain at Old Figure;
Shoes Much Higher.

Chicago, March 26.-Prices of
practically every class OF sporting
goods are from 10 to so per cent
higher than in 1918, according to a
schedule just issued by one of the
largest manufacturers. The chief
reasons advanced are the 10 per cent
war tax on sporting goods, which
recently became effective, and the
high cost of material and labor.
Manufacturers declare that it was
their intention to reduce prices on
number of articles, but that the
war tax made this impracticable.
Since 1915 prices have increased
more than 100 per cent on a ma
Jority of articles.
Base balls and bats are about the
only sporting goods articles which
have not been increased in price this
year. One. Chicago authority said
prices on these would have been re-
duced had the war tax not been
levied: Instead of reducing the price
manufacturers compromised by
maintaining last years figures.
The biggest increases are in sport
shoes, base ball catchers' masks,
gloves and mitts. Golf clubs will
average 50 cents higher and golf
balls will cost 10 cents more. Deal
ers declare that no reduction in
prices may be expected until the
war tax is either cut or removed.
Following is comparison of this
year prices with figures of 1918:
Base balls Gs1s). 10 cents to 81; us1s).
