DISCRIMINATION I'M
F4TOR or THE RICH
Was Charged Against Secretary Of the
Treasury Mellon BY Gov.
Blaine Of Wisconsin.

Washington, d. G., Dec. 2.-Dis-
elimination in favor of the rich tax
payer and profiteer was imputed TO
Secretary Mellon Of the treasury de-
partment by Governor John G. Blaine
Of Wisconsin, in an address here to-
day at natiopal conference OF Pro-
gressives.
In advocating removal Of the se-
crecy ban upon income tax returns.
Governor Blaine attacked Secretary
Mellon for his recent statements in
with Representative
Frear. Republican, Wisconsin, that the
could not reach corpora
tions' undistributed surplus, which are
the basis for stock dividends.
"Now what Mr.. Mellon meant when
he said that the government cannot
collect taxes due from income and SUR
taxes on excess profits was that what
the profiteers and millionaires do to
escape the income and surfaces il to
make false returns said Governor
Blaine, "some times through innocence
bnt often through deceit and fraud, or
by local devices and tricks of the
trade, legally cheat the government. :"
Declaring that secrecy of income tax
was responsible for many
frauds upon the government and that
publicity would largely cure the sit
nation, Governor Blaine continued:
"But suppose Mr.. Mellon would
'courge the proftcers and the million
lire with the same vigor that be does
The lesser criminals Suppose he would
-ealIy try to collect the taxes as
.essed on the rich. Is 1t true that the
is powerless to enforce
he law against the rich, or is il just
! lack Of desire on the part of Mr..
Hell~l to place all taxes on an equal
ty before the lawfv

REP. KELLAR,S CHARGES
AGAINST DAUGHERTY
MAY MEET SOME DELAY


Berlin, Dec. 2, (By the Associated
Press The trade balance against
Germany was considerably increased
as the result Of a large increase in the
imports and decrease in exports dur
ing October, says semi-ofiicial state
ment made public to-day. The state
ment reads:
German imports during October,
according to statistic compiled by the
federal government approximated 53l,-
100000 gold marks, while export dec-
larations amounted to 2SD,000,000 gold
marks. In consequence Of the great in
crease in imports and slight decreases
in exports, the trade balance against
Germany was greatly augmented, in
creasing from about 100000 gold
marks in September to 240,000,oOo gold
marks in October.
For the period January to 0cto-
ber, the adverse trade balance is es-
timated at 750s00O,000 gold marks

PRINCE ANDREWS TRIAL
VIII Start Monday in Athens. 1t Is
Promised.

Paris, Dec 2-Dispstches received
by the French foreign office to-day
confirm news dispatches stating that
the trial Of Prince Andrew, which had
been set for Monday. would begin to-
day. This action was interpreted in
French circles as intended to forestall
any foreign intervention.
Il Is explained that the allied diplo-
mats in Athens were agreed in con-
demning the excesses OF the revolu-
tionary government, but that they dis
agreed as to the best method of ac-
tion. The British opposed diplomatic
representations. while the French held
that such Intervention was more like
" 70 precipitate tragic events than
prevent them.
Athen dispatches say the trial Of
the prince win probably be very short
and may he already finished. with the
sentence. If any was imposed already
carried out.
