BAVARIA'S ATTITUDE
ON CIVILIAN GUARDS
May HINDER SIMONS
(Ry Associated Press)

MUNICH, Feb. 9.-Opposition to
disarming of the Bava rian Civil guard
on the part of Premier VonKahr may
render his retirement inevitable, &C
cording to newspapers opposed to the
present Bavarian administration.
North Bavarian socialists openly
threaten to break with Munich if the
government persists in preventing the
Berlin cabinet carrying out obligations
assumed at Spa and recently prescrib-
ed by the supreme allied council in
Paris.
BERLIN, Feb. 9.-Bavaria's attitude
relative to the disarmament of civil
ian guards is indefensible, in the opin-
ion of members of the Reichstag still
in this city. They believe it will re-
suit in materially complicating the
task of Foreign Minister Simons dur
ing the coming conferences in Lon
don.
Up until late tonight officials here
had received no word from Munich,
but the Berlin cabinet was reported to
be determined to carry out disarma-
ment proposals without equivocation
in order that it might strengthen its
position in presenting counterpropos-
ais on the reparations issue.

bers of the legion" were made before
the legion's executive committee here
by Abel Davis of Chicago, chairman
of the disqualification committee.
LAS result the work OF the legion
in soldier relief matters is being great
ly handicapped" said Mr. Davis, Who
added that at the Cleveland conven-
tion the bureaus licked up to a frazzle
in all matters relating to veterans
release and the legion wondered how it
was done.
Regret BersdolI Action
Regret that the American govern
ment saw fit to apologize to the Ber-
lin government for the attempt of
Americans to capture Grover C. Berg
doll, American draft evader, was eX-
pressed in a resolution adopted by the
executive committee of the American
Legion in session here.
The resolution, offered by Thomas
w. Miller, of Delaware, and ordered
sent to members of congress, approx
ed the proposed congressional inves-
tigation of the circumstances sur
rounding Bergdolls escape from GUS
tody.
Efforts to put the legion on record

al committee in fight against the
league. was read. Other similar ap-
peals had followed from Western and
Southwestern posts and all were
shown to have been given the same
answer by the commander.
Speakers urging the legion to go on
record opposing the league, declared
that its leaders were disloyal and were
using the league to cloak seditious ac-
tivities. Opponents cOntended that
such action would be considered by
many farmers and other members of
the league. who themselves were loyal
as indicating opposition of the league
to the economic and political policies
of the league. All speakers agreed
that the legion should not oppose the
leagues status as a political party.
Announcement was made at today S
meeting the efforts would be made to
have the Knights of Columbus remove

CUT TAX ON S0DAS
fBv Associated Press)

WASHINTON, Feb. 9.-Ground-hog
promises of a pleasant spring and
goose song predictions of a rather
torrid summer, have started a flood
OF petitions to congress to repeal the
war time tax on the poor mans drink.
One day back in 1919, when the
temperature was hitting it up around
the 100 mark, the house voted to re-
move the one cent tax on soda water
and ice cream, but nothing ever hap
pened after that. The measure was
sent to the senate and apparently put
in cold storage.
Some Of the petitions set forth that
inasmuch as the only thing a man can
drink now is soft and lacking in pep,
he ought to be permitted to drink it
without being taxed.

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 9-Governor
McCray declared today that he Is
through" with the effort to repeal the
state wide primary and was in favor
of submitting the question Of repeal
to a referendum of the voters to be
held in connection with the election
in 1922
The governors statement was made
after he had conferred with Frederick
Shortemeier, secretary of the Repub-
lican state committee. who also was
understood to have favored the refer
endum.
The statement of the governor tho
not conclusive, was regarded by op-
posing legislative leaders in the pri-
mary fight as marking the end of at
tempts to pass the repeal measures at
the present session of the legislature,

GOVERNOR MORAY DECLARES He IS THROUGH"
WITH ATTEMPTS TO REPEAL PRIMARY SYSTEM

but the final decision apparently rests
with the Republican state committee.
Governor McCray in making plain
his attitude reiterated that the pro-
posed repeal measure, ready for in
PRODUCTION in the legislature. was not
his measure. He added that it coin
cided with his own view and that he
was not going to "back down" on that
opinion.
Just who conceived the idea of put
ting the repeal before the voters at
referendum is not clear. Governor Nc
Cray said he did not originate it. but
was willing to adopt the good idea
of anybody. He added that he did
not know the source of the inspira-
ton.
Final action on the referendum will
be taken by the joint committee rep
resenting the Republican state COM
mitee and the senators supporting the
retention of the present law.
