RUMPUS GROWS
IN BITTERNESS

LONDON, July pa rumpus which
is marked by steadily increasing bitter
ness, and which has assumed interna-
tional ramihcatiOns, has grown out of
the hostilities between Lloyd George and
Marquis Curzon, the foreign secretary, on
one hand and Lord Northcliffe, the great
newspaper proprietor, on the other.
The latest development. and one which
promises to increase the hostility, was
the cancellation of Lord Northcliffe's
dinner at the British embassy in Wash
ingtOn.
The Importance of this incident was
shown by the fact that the foreign office
today took official cognizance of it and
issued a formal statement saying that
Marquis CurZon had nothing to do with
the action of Sir Auckland Geddes, the
British ambassador in Washington. Be
fore this denial was issued, friends of
Lord Northcliffe had charged the foreign
secretary with responsibility for the can
collation.. They declared Marquis Cur
zon was getting his revenge for the at
tack against him in Northcliffes London
Times when the foreign secretary was
characterized as "pompous and ineffi-
cient" and an unsuitable delegate to rep
resent Great Britain in the Far East con-
ference
Premier Lloyd George was attacked in
the same article and Northcliffe Already
has felt the effect of the premier's dis
pleasure through the closing of special
channels Of information which the Lon
don Times formerly enjoyed.
If il is TO be war Of reprisal. the next
move is up to Northcliffe who is now in
Washington.
The whole nation is watching the bat
tie with keen interest

point, so was that of the public"
The Senator touched upon a vital ques-
ton in the minds of his hearers when he
took up the question of Federal taxes,
but even as close as he is to the Admin

Of a reduction. He expressed himself ss
favorable to a sale tax and declared for
the repeal of the excess profits tax.

FEDERAL TAXES.
"Will the Federal taxes be reduced ?"
he asked

them some. At least, We shall try. But
at the best the public must realize that
our necessities call for the raising of
