the Hylan organization sprung, for
about two years. Mr.. Whalen elevated
Cochems to the executive secretaryship

posed bill for s7,ooo,ooO,ooO of notes,
the committees report sad
"The Treasury Department and the
committee believe that out of an abun-

the issue of S7,0O0,0OO,O00 of notes,
since the excess over $4,000, 1000 900
will doubtless be required early in the
next fiscal year."
While declaring the issuina of short
term notes, instead of long term bonds,
was preferable. the report added:

become advisable or necessary, can be
converted at or before maturity into
longtime obligations for the govern

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The Vic

The bill will be called up in the House

After the Ways and Means Com

100000 estimate was not necessarily
exact, since the amount would not be
determined finally by the Treasury
for month and half. The size then
will depend on government expenses,
which cannot be forecast accurately
for the next month or more.
The committees estimate was based
on the assumption that expenditures

Prince Leopold
Held as Leader
Tn F,isner Plot
Other Bayarian Mobiles Are
Arrested in Investigation
of Premier's Killing

PARIS, Feb. ID The arrest of
Prince Leopold of Bavaria and the
proclaiming of republic of Baden
were two developments reported IN to-
days dispatches from Germany.
Leopold, who was commander in
chief of the German armies on the
Eastern front, has been imprisoned in
Munich, according to a message from
Geneva The creation of the Baden
rvpuk lie feAoweA-a- meeting in Mann
helm called to honor the memory of
Kurt Eisner, Bavarian Premier The
people opened the gates of the military
prison, liberated the prisoners and
then raided the castle and burned the
state archives.
Prince Leopold was suspected of be-
ing one of the instigators of the as
sassination of Premier Eisner.
Search is also being made for the
former Grown Prince Rupprccht Of
Bavaria, who commanded the German
troops in the northern sector of the
Western front in the last stages Of
the war. The prince is reported to
have placed himself at the head of a
monarchical plot, the aim of which is
the restoration of the Wittelsbach
dynasty to power and the first VIC
tim of which was Premier Eisner.
1t is recalled that the last words
of Rupprecht when he was leaving Bel
gian soil to escape into Holland were:
81 do not recognize the Bavarian re-
public. [ renounce and abdicate
nothing"
A reactionarv plot to assassinate the
leaders of the revolution in Bavaria
was unearthed during a search of the
homes of number of reactionary lead
ers, according to Geneva advices. A list
of the persons to be assassinated was
discovered The Geneva dispatch adds
that it has been decided to take twenty
hostages from the arstocracy.
A provisional ministry has been con-
sttuted, says the Geneva dispatch,
consisting of nine members. Among
them is Professor Forester, of the Uni
versity of Munich.
Order has been restored at Munich
and reassurances that it would he
maintained have been given by worke es
of all shades, according to dispatch
from Basel. A new government for
Bavaria will be formed tomorrow,
when congress Of all Socialist ele-
ments will Take place under the aus
pices of the Central Bavarian Coun Ill
of Workmen's and Soldiers Deputies.
The dispatch also states that the gen
eral strike is ended.

Alcohol Limit
Set for Drinks
House Committee Clinches
War Prohibition; Re.
jects Seizure Clause

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24-Any bev-
erage containing more than one-half Of
one per cent of alcohol will be banned
by the wartime prohibition act, effective
July next, if a measure approved to-
day by the House judiciary Committee
to make the act effective becomes a
law.
The committees definition of intoxi-
eating liquor was written into the bill
as follows:
"The words beer, wine or other
intoxicating malt or vinous liquors
in the war prohibition act shall be
construed as any liquor which con-
tains in excess of one-half of one
per cent of alcohol"
provision for search and seizure
Of Intoxicating liquors held for per
sonal use was rejected by the com
mittee. Some prohibitionists sought
the inclusion of the provision.
The bill, as drafted by the commit
tee, makes person storing liquor
liable to punishment only if it is
proved that he is doing 50 with the
purpose of selling it.
special rule for taking up the
measure will be invoked if the bill
cannot be taken up by unanimous con-
sent. 1t is thought to be possible to
get 1t through the House before the
end of this week, but it is not likely
that it can be acted upon by the Sen
ate before the adjournment of Con-
gress.
Enforcement OF the wartime prohi-
bition law, which continues in effect un-
til after rehabilitation, is placed with
the Internal Revenue Bureau by the
bill framed by the committee. AGENTS
of the bureau would investigate viola
tions Of the law and prosecutions would
be conducted by the United States Dis
trict Attorneys. Amy place where liouor
is manufactured or sold would be de-
clared a public nuisance subject to
abatement and its operators subject tn
fine and imprisonment as guilty of a
misdemeanor
Property that owners knowingly per-
nit TO be used for violating the law
would be subject to lien for fine and
costs Of cases resulting from prosecu-
ton.

son, President of the United States, re.
turned to his own to-day. Out of the
mist and sleet of last night the trans
port George Washington brought him
into the sunlight and dancing water OF
Boston Harbor and left him the guest
of honor at the greatest reception this
city ever planned
He returned as he left three months
ago-a crusader. This afternoon. be-
fore 1000 persons in Mechanics Hall he
flung down his challenge With the
covenant of the league of nations AZ
his orifamme and the future welfare
of the world az his sword, hs declared
himself ready for battle.
The crowd that packed the streets
and blackened the waterfront to vel
come the President home may not have
been the most enthusiastic in the his.
tory of Boston, but it was by far the
largest. Nor did the city, host to q
score of other Presidents, ever hold
such elaborate festivities.
By land, by water, by air, she bade
him hail She shouted to him as he
swept through her streets, with the
voices Of guns and the cheers Of men,
women and children; and all those
whom the police and soldiers would
permit surgcd in about the station
when he said farewell, less than five
hours after his arrival.
Shortly before dawn the George

troops, as we'll as the Presidential
party, groped her way into the harbor,
Shepherded by half dozen destroyers
she dropped anchor at Quarantine
