ERMAN THEATERS
HARD HIT BY TAXES

Berlin, June 5.-Taxation amounting
something like SIS per cent of gross
venue and heavy running expenses
e responsible for the recent closing
wn of so first class theatres in Ger
hny. Many theatrical and operate
mpanies are said to be In sore fl
ncial straits. Few can afford to pay
the higher priced seats at the
esent increased rates, and the NOV
3 picture houses, with their popu-
r prices. are reaping the benefit.
THE manager of the Reinhardt con-
IN that controls the three most inn
Prtant Berlin theatres states that the
TEST luxury" tax alone takes more
Ian 20 per cent of the box office re-
eipts. Boxes and stalls are now rare
booked. The Kapp revolution week,
said, caused the concern to lose
$4,000 marks.
Director Barnowsky of the leasing
leatre, the home of the drama in
erlin told a Tageblatt representative
lat the German stage is passing
trough most critical period. Theat-
cal budgets. he said, can no longer
: balanced. The greatest menace, he
lid, was "Americanism" by which, he
splained. he meant art for amuse-
ent's sake, not for arts sake"

RATE HEARING
AGAIN DELAYED
BECAUSE COMMISSIONER DUNN
MUST BE IN WASHINGTON FARE
INCREASE QUESTION Is CON-
TlNuED.

Secretary Thompson Of the State
Railroad Commission. has announced
that the proposed hearing on the re-
quest Of ]. G. Holtzclaw. receiver OF
the Pensacola Electric Co. for an In
crease in fare on the company's lines
in Pensacola, has been postponed. The
reason given is that Royal G. Dunn
must be in Washington on the date
assigned for the hearing. The letter
follows:
1T again becomes necessary for the
commissioners to continue the hearing
set for June 18th in Pensacola on the
application of the Pensacola Electric
Co. for an increase in its car fares.
1.-The hearing before the Interstate
Commerce Commission on the general
application of the carriers throughout
the United States for increases in
freight rates will be resumed on the
7th and dates have already been as
signed for continuous hearing from
that date until the 22nd. The case will
probably continue over to the Oath or
25th. Mr.. Dunn was selected as rep
resentative Of the southern Territory to
sit with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission in this case. and he will, there
fore, have to be in Washington con-
|tinuously from June 7th until the
hearing is completed.
THE Interstate Commerce Commits
sion has assigned for hearing on June
|2sth in Tampa, the complaint OF the
Railroad commissioners against the di-
rector general of railroads, ct al, at
hacking certain items carried in the
hew refrigeration charges from Florida
by the railroad administration. This
Ease will probably occupy three days.
rhe commissioners are therefore unable
o assign the Pensacola case for hear
hg at any time during this month.
1--WE have tentatively agreed upon
uly Ia as the date for hearing this
pplication in Pensacola. If there is
objection to that date, it will be
ssigned for hearing the Pensacola
lectric Company's application.
The commissioners are indeed sorry
Pat this hearing is again necessarily
pstponed. but the delay, you will
sadily see. is caused by matters over
hich we have no control.
Yours very truly,
LEWIS G. THOMPSON,
Secretary"

THE NATIONS FINANCES.
Treasury's Program To Meet Postwar
Demands.

Washington. -Closing Of subscrip
lions to the last series of certificates
Of Indebtedness concluded the Treas
ury's program of financing immediate
postwar demands of the nation. This
operation was initiated last December
and primarily was designed to avoid
the flotation of another popular loan
Theoretically, the government now
stands with accounts balanced, with
the exception, of course, of the bond
ed Indebtedness. The approximately
$25, 000,00O,000 in Liberty Bonds and
Victory notes now outstanding will be
retired under the sinking fund provi
sions of the War Loan Act, operations
of which already have been started.
While there are outstanding certi
icates of Indebtedness aggregating
$3.50, 704,500, they were issued in di
rect anticipation of the payment of
income and excess profit tax install
ments. Estimates of the tax payments
show every indication of being lower
than the amount of revenue which will
be received, thus assuring prompt re-
tirement of all certificates of indebted
ness as they mature and without
further issues of short-term paper.

WOMEN TO WEAR
ORIENTAL TROUSERS.

ris.-Daring Oriental suits of
lustrous gold and silver tissues
ending in trouser legs, which are
held close to the shoe tops by
straps, sometimes embroidered in
precious stones, passing under the
wearer' instep, are featured in
displays of summer models in
Partisan modistes' parlors. Some
models coyly veil the trousers
with filmy materials.
Recent rumors that tight lacing
was to be restored to favor have
proved to be erroneous. In fact,
little if any corseting will be need
ed next summer except by stout
women. The length of street
dresses being shown is about the
same as that most in vogue last
fall, but the hem is narrower.

Provision.
Berlin-Baron Kurt Won Lersner,
head of the German mission in Paris,
has been relieved of that office. Baron
Won Lersner, it is stated, had received
explicit orders to transmit the ex-
pected Allies note on extradition de-
mands to his government.
Baron Kurt Won Lersner's refusal
to accept the Allied note regarding the
extradition Of accused Germans was
not in accordance with instructions he
had received from Berlin. The Ger
man government had requested him
to receive it but he asked by tele-
graph for permission to retire and his
resignation was Immediately accepted.
Carried Out His Threat.
Raris-Kurt Won Lersner, head of
the German peace delegation here, has
returned to Premier Millerand the list
containing the names of Germans
whose extradition is demanded by the
Allies, which was handed to him, and
has informed the Premier that he has
resigned and is leaving for Berlin by
the first train.
Baron Won Lersner stated his de-
cision was in line with the attitude
he had maintained throughout regard
ing the question Of extradition. He
declared he had held that no German
official should be instrumental in
carrying out the extradition clauses OF
the treaty, and, consequently, the mat
ter having come up in definite final
FORM. there was nothing left for him
to do but to resign and go home.
Immediately after receiving the list
Baron Won Lersner addressed the fol-
lowing letter to Premier Millerand
your Excellency has transmitted to
me a note containing the names Of
Germans whose extradition is demand
ed by the Allied powers. In the course
of the last three months have most
seriously laid before representatives
of the Allied and Associated govern
ments, 10 times in writing and Is
times orally, the reasons it was i'm
possible to comply with such a re-
quest, no matter WHdC the sOcldl rank
of the accused persons might be.
81 remind Your Excellency of my
constantly repeated declarations that
no German functionary would be dis.
posed to be in any way whatever in
strumental in the realization of the
demand for their extradition.
Il should be instrumental in it if ]
were to forward to the German gov
eminent the note of Your Excellency.

Nv executive department Of the Fed
eral Government, Senator Smoot, Re-
publican. of Utah, told the Senate that
from July /, 1916, to last July 10, 3d.
i44.362 copies of speeches made by
cabinet officials and other persons
were printed and distributed through
the mails at total. cost Of $4,000.
Senator Smoot said this not only
was a waste of paper, but an "abuse
of the publ;cs money" and a wicked
practice" that should be stopped i'm
mediately in view of the serious print
paper situation.
The Treasury Department alone, he
said, had 5,066 900 copies Of speeches,
requiring 1886 pounds of paper,
printed and distributed, while the
Railroad Administration had 3,055,5OO
copies of speeches made by William
6. McAdoo while director general OF
railroads, and other persons printed.
One million copies of speech made
by Mr.. McAdoo, at Altoona, Pa, IN
1918, were printed and distributed,
Senator Smoot charged
Senator Sherman, Republican, OF
Illinois, declared much paper was con-
sume6 by Mr. McAdoo in distributing
propaganda as railroad literature
when he was director of railroads.
Limitation of the size of daily news
papers was suggested by Senator
Jones, Democrat, of New Mexico, who
said his bill for that purpose had been
oigenholed in committee. Part OF the
plame for the paper shortage, he add

sumed a great deal of space in the

ranking OF them through the mails
might be questionable under the law.
"The departments of this govern
ment," said Senator Smoot, do not
care much what the law is"
Printing of the thirty million
speeches, Senator Smoot said, required
s94,1O1 pounds, or 447 tons, of white
print paper, while the envelopes re-
auired an additional 1,451,7S4 pounds.
For the executive office, he con-
tinued, 163,862 copies of speeches
were printed, at cost of $4,000,
while 307,0 copies of speeches were
printed for the Food Administration.

that a propaganda is unnecessary on
every question" said Senator Smoot.
"That would save thousands of pounds
of paper"
Senator Gronna, Republican, North
Dakota, said the State Department had
succeeded in getting some relief from
the embargo on wood pulp imposed
by the Canadian Government.
Secretary Baker, in communica-
ton to all branches Of the Army and
the War Department, called attention
to the paper shortage and directed all
officers ito scrutinize closely all re-
quests for printed matter and take
such steps as may be necessary to
eliminate waste in the public printing
