ON EXPRESS PARCELS
SAVES PUBLIC MUCH

An explanatin of The saving that
will result to the public from the
elimination of war tax on express
shipments was given yesterday by J..
E. Morrison, local agent for the Amer
lean Railway Express company, who
said that it will amount to approx
rately S1,500,000 a month
''The revenue act of 1921" said
Morrison, eliminates the war tax of
one cent on every 20 cents and frac-
tion thereof in transportation charges

ury department has requested express
carriers to advise all who have claims
pending for overcharges or for refund
of tax to file same after December
81. AS the revenue act becomes eff
fective January 1, 1922, the tax on all
shipments forwarded prepaid on or
before December 81 will be collected.
On shipments forwarded collect and
arriving on and after January l, the
tax will not be collected"

URGES STATE AID IN
ARRESTING VIOLATORS
OF FEDERAL STATUTES

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Co-oper-
alton of state law enforcement Off
Gals with those of the federal gov
eminent was asked by Attorney Cen
eral Daugherty in letters sent today
to attorney generals of the states.
Such cooperation, it was maintained,
would result in better and more uni
form enforcement of all statutes.
Enforcement of the prohibition and
the fuel and food supply laws were
particularly referred to, Daugherty
explained in announcing despatch of
the letters.
There was no disposition by the
federal government to evade respon
sibility," he added, "but there was a
feeling that the states should make
every effort to enforce their laws
which might be a duplication of fed
eral statutes"
Referring to the cooperation which
he asked, Daugherty said:
This will make for a better un-
derstanding among the people 1t
will also afford an opportunity for
the several states, without duplica
ton with the federal government tC
enforce laws which should be enforc
ed by state authorities and leave for
the federal government such duties as
devolve upon it."
The two principal offenses which
l have in mind are those against the
liquor and the food and fuel supply
laws There is no disposition on the
part of the federal government tt
evade any responsibility in respect tC
! it's duties, but the states, | believe
should first enforce their laws in re
! gard to the violations, and the FEEDER
al government promptly cooperating
with the states, enforce the law:
which should be enforced by it."
He added that he was DESTROYS o
bringing about a complete and ei
fective working system" among al
law enforcement authorities, sayin,
that only by such an arrangement
could a uniformity of proceedings b.
established and a similarity of fine
and sentences be worked out.

French Senators
Voice Opposition
to Limiting Navies

PARIS, Dec. 27.-(By the Associ-

to have a powerful fleet and objec-
tions to the limitation efforts of the
Washington conference were vigor-
ously voiced in the senate today dur
ing a discussion of the marine section
of the governments budget.
Senator Henry Berenger, who re-
ported the marine budget, said France
was at a decisive turning point rs
France still Independent in her navy
as il her army?" he asked. Has the
old principle of sovereignty been sac
rificed somewhat in those conferences
wherein We have been promised a
sort OF internationale of happiness?'
Senator de Kerguezec defended the
submarine as an essential weapon of
defense. but wished it to be confined
to military uses instead of being APP
piled to torpedoing commerce.
AT the Washington conference" he
said, I'VE were surprised to see the
French delegation demand 100000
tons of capital ships when France
does not desire to carry war into
foreign waters. France desires no
Imperialism, but if we found Admiral
de Bon's proposal strange, there are,
nevertheless, Limitations which we
cannot accept"
Minister of Marine Guisthau, reply
ing to Senator de Kerguezec, said he
was greatly affected by the remarks
about the Washington conference, but
he asserted: Sect"
Nothing has been proposed that
reduces Frances powers"
Moreover, he declared, no decisions
reached at Washington would be eff
fective until the French parliament
had approved them.
He severely criticized the condition
of the navy and other senators joined
with him in urging speedy reforms

am sure that all the substance which
England has secured in the treaty can
be very well explained.
MY objection, therefore, is based
on moral issue, our Irish citizenship.

cision the members of the Dali arrive
at. they will submit the treaty to the
Irish people.

LaFollette Declares Meeting
Was Held For Purpose of
Keeping Up Rates

WASHINGTON, Dec: 27.-Charges
were made by Senator LaFollette of
Wisconsin in a statement today that
representatives of the railroads and
the coal, steel and lumber interests
at secret" meeting here December
8 attempted to obtain from farm or
SANITATION leaders and did obtain
from some sucn leaders, adherence to
an agreement not to push legislation
to repeal the commonly called guar
anty section of the transportation act
and to restore state control of state
rates.
He made his charges in celebrating
on his assertion that a plan is afoot
to perpetuate the fundamental provi-
sions of the transportation act, en-
bodied in section 15-A (the guaranty
section of which a portion expires
March u, and to render permanent
the intolerable conditions which have
made the transportation system, for
the past two years, an instrument ror
the exploitation Of the American
people"
In substantiation of his charges, La
Toilette made public what he de-
scribed as "a brief report of the ac
tion OF the conference" held here De-
cember 9. which he branded as "con
sphacy to betray not only the farm
ers, but the consuming and producing
millions of the nation"
This report was made public by the
senator without an explanation of its
source. o..
Senator LaFollette declaretb that IN
brief the alleged PROPOSAL of the rail
roads was that the farmers abandon
their fight for lower rates in return
for repeal of one clause of section
15-A which he added, would expire
automatically next March I.
IF the farmers abide by the agree
ment enforced into by few of theil
representatives at Washington De

interests will defeat the united de
