Especial oSbls to The Warrington Hsrald.)
ON BOARD s s. LAFAYETTE,
Nov. 6.-The drafting of a new code
of warfare is one of the matters
which the French military experts
with Premier BRAND expect that
the washington conference will
consider. ...-
The new rules for recogpized
warfare are expected to embrace
regulations covering the use of gas,
the bombardment of unfortified
places, aerial bombing, submarine
torpedoing, the respecting Of hos
pital ships and hospitals, and the
treatment of military and civilian
prisoners.
French General Outlines Rules.
Gen. Buat, chief of stan of the
French army, today outlined the ne
cessity for new international rules
of war superseding the obsolete
regulations which were shattered
during the great war.
THE old rules of warfare were
formulated when belligerent na-
tions put Snall lighting forces into
the field and the rest of the popula-
tion were merely spectators of the
hostilities," said Buat. In the
world war practically every inhabi-
tant of the fighting countries was
connected directly or indirectly
with the great struggle. In future
wars the situation probably will be
intensified. with entire populations
lighting one another"
Gen. Buat believes that In the
next war the infantry will be
armored and every combatant will
be transformed into an individual
one-man power tank, with light ma
chine guns replacing rifles He be-
lieves that the days Of cavalry are
over in all developed countries pro-
vided there are numerous roads
while cavalry hereafter only will
be practical in the undeveloped
countries of Africa, South America
and Russia.

this morning, Senate leaders are
hopeful that the long drawn out
consideration of the tax bill can be
brought to an end by tonight The
measure has been before the Senate
the greater part Of the time for
about five weeks.
All committee amendments to the
House bill have been acted upon.
the sales tax has been definitely re-
jected and the soldiers bonus ques-
ton also has been sidetracked SO
that, after a few additional minor
amendments are disposed of, the
Senate in committee of the whole
will report the bill to the Senate,
which then will have roll calls for
a second time upon some of the
important provisions of the measure.

Amng the propositions on which
separate votes may he demanded be-
fore final passage Of the bill are the
repeal of the excess profits tax. the
question Of surtax rates, proposals
to reduce the present normal tax

porations.
With the debate curtailed. the
leaders believe II will be possible to
pass the bill by tonight even though
many roll calls are demanded. 1t is
desired to finish up today, IL pos
sible, because OF the fact that a
number of Senators will be absent
tomorrow for elections in their
home States.
Failure to pass the bill tonight
probably will mean that II WILL be
put over until Wednesday. The
leaders would be fearful of the re-
suits II votes were taken on impor-
tant provisions with a number OF
Republicans absent.
Democrats Solid Against BiII.
Democrats are expected to line up
solidly against the bill on the final
passage. Not more than two or
three Republicans are expected to
vote against II.
The House has adjourned until
Wednesday so that If the bill is
passed by the Senate tonight con-

The Spaniards have been fighting

of their occupancy of the Iber'an
peninsula as conquerors, developed
much In the way of art and archltec-
ture that Is most highly valued today,
To them we owe, for one small item
the tiles which so beautifully adorn
our bathrooms aud which, utilized in
various ways, contribute so much to
the artistic finish Of dwellings and
other buildings. The Moors estab-
lished at Seville great tile factories,
and at the present time that city is u
very important tile-making center.
In It's neighhorhood are deposits Of a
clayey earth highly suitable for the
purpose, which Is ground fine, sfted,
iampened and stamped with designs,
then burned with slow fire. Colors
are applied and the tiles are finally
baked with high heat for twenty-four
hours.
Many Of the designs are artistic, rep.
resenting scenes from Don Qulxote,
bull fights, etc. Sacred paintings are
reproduced In tiles for churches In
fact, thanks TO their ancient enemies,
the Moors, the Spaniards have de-
veloped art In tiles far beyond any
