55c PER ONTH
(By United Press)

Washington, Nov. 21.-France will
cut in half her effective army by re-
ducing by SO per cent the period Of
Frances military service, Premier
BRAND today stated at the arms linz
itation conference. r.,-t
"This," he said, lis Frances offer
to peace. Moreover, it is certain that
by action of the French government
the period of military service will be
cut in half" the premier said. Ger
many" he said, "still has the spirit
of war. France, perhaps more than
any other nation, wants to bring
peace throughout the WORLD" the pre-
mier said.
1t was, as had been expected, pic
ture Of France menaced by Germany,
which BRAND painted in explaining
why his country longs to disarm, but
dares not do so. There was also the
expected appeal to America to UNDER
stand the French position.
France would like to join the Unit
ed States in making the great sacri-
fee, but dares not. America, he
pointed out, has not realized the stu
alton which lies at the very door Of
France, in Germany. With Luden-
dorff teaching war doctrine, France
cannot close her eyes, BRAND said.
"America should understand" said
BRAND, "that Germany is not disarm-
ed as the world generally supposes,
but has several powerful bodies of
armed men under different names, all
police, but all world war veterans and
all being trained FOR war" 49,. .
He described these in detail, he
said, to show that Germany has so
many trained men, particularly Off
GERS that it would take only a few
days to martial an army that would
endanger France.

Revenue Department Imposes
New Form Of Lien for
Law Violation
ABOUT 80 LIENS ALREADY
PLACED IN 9TH DISTRICT
Imposed for Nonpayment OF
Income Tax or Violation of
Prohibition Laws

At the request Of the local aDstract
company, William H. Pryor OF Dulutn'
nresident of the American Title Mems
association, appeared before the A.
wants club Thursday, November ~
for the purpose Of informing the busl,
ness men generally of the United
States Internal Revenue nens oelhs
filed against taxpayers in Minnesota:
These are a new kind OF lien "nlch
the Internal Revenue department has
RECENTLY commenced imposing for the
nonpayment of income tax or TOR
violation of the prohibition laws. 1t
is a>proposition worthy of considera-
tion bv all persons doing any business
involving either chattel mortgages or
real estate loans or the purchase OF
nropertv, and it is desired to give
as much publicity to this matter as
possible.
The outstanding features OF this
kind of Zen, so far as konW, appear
to be as follows:
They are imposed for nonpayment
of income tax or for violation OF the
prohibition laws. :.
Such liens are filed under Section
1886, Revised Statutes of the United
States, as amended by 81, Stat. 1915.
In Minnesota the United States
District Court has six divisions, Bel
trami county being located IN the
sixth division. The branch of the Unit
ed States District Court for this div
ision is located at Fergus Falls, MINI.
Under present arrangements all liens
against taxpayers in the sixth dlvls-
ion, which includes Beltrami county,
are being filed with the Clerk OF. the
United States District Court at. Fer
gus Falls, and bee come a lien upon
all such property of sue h taxpayer the
moment it hes been SO filed.
These liens cover all property and
rights to property, both personal and
real, of the taxpayer against whom
the lien has been imposed, and in
cludes the homestead.
Such liens never outlaw, and can
not be cut out by bankruptcy pro-
ceedings. ~'''.'
In some cases of violation of the
prohibition laws, the defendant has
been convicted in a criminal action,
been fined and has paid his fine, and
then has found that hen has been
imposed upon his property in civil
action; in other cases defendants have
been acquitted under such a criminal
action and lien has been imposed
upon their property under a civil
action.
There are about eighty such liens
known to have been placed upon prop
erty in the sixth division in Mime
sofa already, and many more are ex=
pected to be filed at an early date.
These liers; so far as now known,
average from about 5000 to $4,000
each, and the only known way to dis
pose Of same is to pay them.
The Beltrami Consolidated Abstract
company of this city is preparing to
furnish this service for the benefit of
its customers, and will be glad at any
time to furnish any information at
its command to, any interested per-
son upon request.

MYSTERY GIRL NOW
A BRIDE, is REPORT

Great Falls.-Freddie, the girl of
mystery who spent her spring and
summer vacation in jails of Cascade
county and Fergus county, is married.
This information comes from Lewis
town through marriage license records
which show the issuance of permit
to wed to Frederick Weiderschutt,
%, and R. w. Holt, so, both of Lewis
town. Sheriff Bob Gordon is of the
belief that this is the Freddie who
was his guest of mystery for 60 days,
since it is the same name.
Freddie's secret, if she had any,
never revealed by her stay in
Jail. She was also in Jail in Lewis
town, but the authorities could pry
nothing from her. She was dressed in
mems clothing when arrested here,
in a Central avenue rooming house,
where she lived in solitude, playing
almost constantly on a piano which
she had bought on the installment
plan, making one payment.
R. S. Gaunt, c~ity-county indentifica-
ton officer, says that Freddie is
"home talent" coming from a ranch
near Dupuyer. The name she gave
here is not her real name, he said.

COAL DEALERS SUBJECT
TO LICENSE LAW

Montana coal dealers who on JAN
uary 1 this year possessed the licens-
es extending to future date are never
theless subject to the new license tax
for 1921 and subsequent years, imposed
by the state legislature, according to
a ruling made Saturday by Attorney
General Wellington D. Rankin. 1t was
given at the request of State Treas
urer ]. w. Walker.
Licenses existing January l were
issued under a law enacted in 1911.
One dollar was the fee. Administra-
ton was under the direction of the
secretary of state. The purpose was
to prevent fraud, Mr.. Rankin says
The license law enacted this year pro-
vides for a fee of 81 and an additional
fee of 5 cents for every ton of coal
sold upon which such a tax of 5 cents
had not been paid by a mine operator.
The law of 1921 specifically repeats
the former license law.
A state license is but a privilege to
engage in business, Mr.. Rankin says.
"It carries no vested right and may be
revoked at an time by the authority
comforting it and is indirectly re-
voked by subsequent legislation max
ing the new and additional require
ments for conducting the business Ii
censed.
The mere fact that the entire term
of the license issued under the act
of 1911 has not expired yet will not
entitle the holder Of such license to
do business by virtue Of the same un-
der the act of 1921"
