attitude toward the Straits problem
is printed on page ID
Lausanne, Dec. 6.-CBy The Asso-
ciated Press "A strong American
plea for freedom of the Straits, with
fhe right of warships to pass to and
from the Black sea, was the outstand-
ing feature of the Near Eastern con
ference Wednesday, which received
from the entente nations a definite
project for the future control Of this
great world waterway. The Russian
plan for the exclusion of ell but Turk
ish warships from the Straits received
a blow by the allied proposals.
Richard Washburn Child, the Amer
ican ambassador. adopted the broad
standpoint that the very interests OF
the countries bordering on the Black
sea made it imperative to keep the
Straits open. The United States, in
common with every commercial nation,
wished access to every free body of
water in the world, and America
would not be satisfied if her ships OF
war could not pursue their peaceful
crrands wherever American citizens
and merchant craft were accorded that
privilege, he said.
Russia 7idicuIes Allied Plan
The entente nations presented a
comprehensive plan for restricted
opening of the Straits. which was
designed to prevent any one body
from acquiring mastery there: they
suggested standardization Of the en-
tire Straits territorial zone and pro
posed the appointment of an intern |
~
servance Of freedom of the Straits.
George Tchitcherin. the Russian |
soviet foreign minister. ridiculed the
allied proposals, saving it meant re
sumption Of international rivalries, but
Ismet pasha. for Turkey, informed
the Associated Press that he consid-
cred the entente proposals suitable
for further discussions, which will be
resumed Friday.
In addition to the plan presented
Wednesday. the allies are arranging
for the formation Of committee Of II
experts to work out detailed regula-
tions for protecting Constantinople.
Put briefly, the allied proposal for
controlling the straits is as follows:
Proposals of Entente
In time of peace, there shall be
complete freedom Of passage for the ,
merchant ships Of MI nations, but the
number of warships shall not be
greater than that of the most powerful I
of the littoral powers of the Black sea I
existing in the Black sea at the time
of passage.
If. however. the Black sea powers
should abandon all their naval forces, c
individual powers still would have the {
right to send through the straits a
fleet of three ships, but only one of
these ships could exceed a tonnage of '
10000 II war occurred. i'll which Y
Turkey was neutral, there should be 6
complete liberty for -, powers with
the same limitation as to the number )
and tonnage of ships as in time of peace !
If war should break ont and Turkey !
was a belligerent, neutral warships
could pass through under the same /

account"
Punctures Fiction
Senator Underwood took occasion
to say that while the Democratic tar
lit does not tax many farm products
It benefits the farmer by putting farm
ing machinery on the free list. With
considerable delight Senator Goodine
punctured that fiction. He said:
The Senator from Alabama spoke
about the bill bearing his name ptn,-
ting machinery on the free list That
is true but it is an insult to the Amer
lean farmer when you say you put
it on the free list to give the Ameri-
can farmer cheaper farming material
because the facts are that the Ameri-
can genius on the farms in this coun-
try has lead the whole world with
improved American made farming ma
chinery. There is no farming macnin-
cry made elsewhere in the world that
the American farmer can use; and SO,
if there is not any that can be import
ed what is the use in insulting the. in
telligence of the American farmer by
telling him that it was put on the
free list for his benefit
Furthermore, within 60 days after
the Underwood bill was passed prices
of farm machinery went up five per
cent, and within six months It went
up five per cent more, making an
increase of ten per cent. There is no,
a single item that they put on the free
list, unless it is cotton ties, wr,erc
there was any benefit to the American
farmer. They put barbed wire ON the
free list, but they gave the steel man
ufacturer protection on the steel out
of which that barbed wire was made.
II you can go into the old farmers
home and find anything that is not
protected under the Underwood bill,
you will do better than l have been
able to do. While as far as the farm
er's labor is concerned, nothing has
been protected. They call it reven-
Tie duty, and yet it is higher duty
than the McCumber bill carries to-
day"

cost the American people in the
nelghborhood of two hundred million
dollars year." The fallacy of that
claim was exposed when Senator
Gooding showed the total value of the
wool clip of America to be around
$oo, oOO,0OO year. The Idaho Senator
while on the wool question, made the
contention that it is quite as essential
to protect the farmer and the wool
grower as the wooden manufacturer
and the maker of clothing. Clothing
he said is quite as much a necessity
OF life as is food, and if the one is to
be proteced the other should be. "Al]
require labor to produce, said SEN
ator Gooding. If the Senator can see
any difference between the man who
owns factory and the man who
owns a farm, he looks at life from an
entirely different standpoint from that
which l take. l think they are all
American citizens and all ought to be
treated alike.
You should not make any distinc-
ton, replied Senator Underwood,
but do not believe in levying taxes
for the benefit of anybody" This ad-
mission brought from Senator Good
ing the following enjoiner
eff all men who discuss the tariff
question will go before the American
people and discuss it as fairly as the
leader of minority in the Senate we
will settle this question very quickly.
If the Democratic party is not in fav-
or of protection it will not take long
to settle it. I want to say to the Sen
ator that any Senator on Congressman
who goes into any Western State and
makes that statement cannot be re-
turned to Congress. He may be re-
turned from the South, but he cannot
come from the West; and I hope that
all Democrats who go out on the
stump this fall will be as sincere and
honest as the Senator from Alabama.
If they do, there will be no question
about what will happen in the election.
The American people are for protec-
ton"
Maintain High Standard
In concluding his speech, Senator
Gooding said: LET me say that we
have an American standard to main
tain-the best in all the world-and if
you are going to maintain it there
must be some way of equalizing the
difference in the cost of production
here and abroad, and I do not think
there has ever been a time in the his
tory of the country when we needed
protective tariff as much as we do
today, because the lines are farther
apart than they have ever been in the
history of this country, so far as the
price of labor is concerned, and the
price of labor practically controls the
price of nearly every product in the
whole world"
Senator Gooding was widely con-
graduated by Republican Senator's on
his thorough discussion of the tariff
bill, and Chairman McCumber and
other Senate leaders indicated their
purpose to circulate his speech in their
States during the coming campaign.

worth of this class Of property are
concealed every year, thus escaping
taxation. Under the new law II sucn
property soriitted from taxation ana
is afterwards discovered by the taxing
officer, a penalty of $500 per cent Will
be added to the taxes. Moreover, no
owner OF bonds, notes or other CYL
dence of debt will be allowed to lnsti-
tute a suit for the collection OF the
same. unless he alleges that the bonds,
notes, or other evidence of debt on
which he is suing have been reported
for taxation and assessed for each
and every year of which he was the
owner, and no judgment rendered IN
such a suit will be valid unless 1t re-
cites that such allegation was made.
In discussing this provision OF the
law, the governor stated:
This is drastic provision, but our
courts should not assist in the collec-
ticn of debts upon which the proper
taxes have not been paid"
Under the new law taxpayers will
not be allowed to deduct bonds, notes,
or debts owing to others. While some
Jew taxpayers who nave been accus-
toned to OFFSET part Of this class OF
property with their debts will be re-
qulred TO pay taxes on a larger vol
ume than heretofore, the reduction OF
| the tax rate will tend to lessen the
amount of the taxes, and the elinlina-
{, ton or the deductions will place the
owners of this class of property on
the same footing with owners of real
estate and tangible personal property
VINO have never been allowed aeduc-
tions or offsets. This provision will
also eliminate many improper deduc-
tons which have been claimed under
the old law, and will, it is believed
make up large part of the deficit
which would ordinarily result from a
reduction of the tax rate.
The bill also changes the definition
of money on deposit Under the old
law money on deposit with any bank
or other corporation or firm or person
was taxable at 20 per cent. A prac-
tice developed among a number OF
taxpayers connected with corporations
0 fpiacing with the corporation money
subject to call upon which they re-
ceived interest at per centum per
annum. This money was reported fol-
taxation as money on deposit, and
taxed at zoe. Under the law as amend
ed, unless the money is deposited with
bank or other corporation Or firm
or person doing a banking business,
it is classed as debt and taxed at
SOC. And even though the money is
on deposit with bank, if certificate
of deposit bearing total interest rate
paid or to be paid exceeding 5 pei
centum per annum is issued therefor,
such certificate Of deposit is taxable
as an evidence of debt, and bears the
55c rate.
The new law contains further pro-
vision that any person, firm or corpo-
ration, who, for the purpose of cvad-
ing taxation, within thirty (30) days
prior to the first day of February of
any year, either directly or indirectly,
converts any intangible property or
money taxable under the laws of this

BILL REDUCING TAN on BONDS
AND NOTES SIGNED 81 GOV.

The bill reducing the rate or bonds,
notes and demands from Sl.1O to SOC
vas signed by Governor Z. Lee
.Trinklc today and will apply to the
taxes for the current year. The re-
duction was recommended by Gov
crnor Trinkle in his inaugural ad-
dress for the purpose of providing
ready money at a reasonable rate CT
interest for the indispensable needs
of all classes Of people; to provide
funds in rural districts for financing
crops, and in cities fer the encourage
ment Of building, and for the promo
ton generally of the industrial actiV-
tiles of the State. The governor
-, ointed out at that time that millions
Of dollars of Virginia money are now
bein cleaned in other States Of the
Union which permit higher interest
charges, and that reduction IN the
tax rate by the State would allow &
greater return to the investor on
money invested in this State and
thereby encourage the loanins of this
money in Virginia, where it would aid
in the development of the State.
While the new law relieves the tax
payer from the payment of back taxes
on this class OF people; to provide
tarily reports it for taxation this
year and pays the tax thereon by De-
cember /, it contains drastic provi-
sions designed to force taxpayers 10
charges, and that a reduction in the
aticn in the future. It is generally
recognized that millions of dollars
