REED CHAMPIONS
POWER MEASURE
Wants Cities to Pay Tax for
Privilege

OLYMPIA. Jan. 30. - Declaring
that tho Bono power bill In unfair TO
the state and that tho Davis power
bin Is unconstitutional. Mark =.
Reed. speaker Of the house. Monday
night Mt the public hearing urged
the adoption OF an amendment 10 one
OF the bills providing for a per cent
gross earnings tax to 20 into the
state funds.
Reed said the flaw IN the Davis
bin was the fact that the state can
not isvy taxes for county purposes
He strongly championcd tho right OF
cities TO sell power outside their cor.
porate limits. but said they should
pay for the privilege.
Opponents OF the power bill which
would allow cities 10 sell surplus
power outside the city limits will be
heard Tuesday night, at tho second
open meeting on the question.
Led by the city officials OF Tacoma
and Seattle. the proponents Of the
measure argued for the adoption OF
tho bill at the fret hearing held In
tho house chamber Monday night
Commissioner IrR DAVIDSON. OF Ia
coma, struck keynote when he de-
clared that tho very necessity OF hav-
Ing to come to the legislature TO ask
for the permission was ridiculous.
when we have the surplus power
TO sell, and there arc dozens of COM
munities that wish TO buy II, why
should We have TO come down here
and beg the Legislature TO let us sell r.
he asked
There In no bams to tho argument
that II would remove property from
the tax rolls" he continued. "Tn fact
It would have the opposite effect. II
would encourage development, build
up communities and place Thousands
Of dollars OF new property on the tax
rolls"
Mrs. Henry Landes and Mrs.
Kathryn Miracle, Seattle women
council members. also scoffed a. the
idea OF the power bill taking prop
erty off the tax rolls.
"One thing tho power will do said
Mrs. Landeg, rs TO make the work
lighter for your mothers. and your
wives. and give them more time for
other things. like running for tho

AMERICAN TRADE WITH
GERMANY NOT HURT
BY RUHR OCCUPATION
However, If Blockade or
Coal Continues Contracts
May Be Voided.
BY GEORGE wITTE.
Special Gable to The San Antonio Light
and the Chicago Daily News.
Copyright 1923,

Berlin, Feb. $50 far, the trade of
the United States with Germany has
been affected only slightly by the Ruhr
occupation, according TO Arthur Dun
ming, secretary OF the American Cham
Der Of Commerce in Berlin and to other
American commercial officials here.
However, many orders placed in Ger
many by American firms last year for
delivery within the next few months
can exporters have cablcd over that
they would make good on their orders
only if the shipments were insured
against war risks.
As most shipments of goods to the
United States 60 by way of Hamburg
or Bremen anu the actual Ruhr block
adc has lasted only about Il week, Ger
man trade with the United States has
not been affected so far" said MIR.
Dunning. In a few weeks or months
the situation may be entirely changed.
Manufacturers with whom American
importers have contracts will be either
entirely without coal, or will have to
buy coal in Great Britain which will
cost the manufacturer more than the
Ruhr coal they use ordinarily. AS
result, the price of goods will be higher
and they will be unable to fill their
contracts.
There is not much contract work be-
ing done over here for the United
States, because the manufacturers, on
account of the fluctuatiOn in the value
% the mark, refuse to accept orders at
fixed prices and so the recent buying
has been chiefly confined to the stock
on hand. Some buyers have even
kept away from Germany because they
believed that it was not safe to come
over here. Although at present there
is shortage of goods, the manufactur-
ers would be hard hit if the Ruhr oc-
cupation should prove handicap to
their trade with the United States as
they are keen to get dollars for their
goods. Usually they make more money
on American currency than on the
goods themselves as by the time they
lave filled their orders and got the
dollars the rate of exchange is much
higher"
SO far as steel and iron goods are
concerned, American officials here ex-
pcct that there will be no trouble in
getting those manufactured in the
Ruhr district and the occupied terri
tory through the French blOckades as
unlik" coal and coke, iron and steel

enemy, and then direct an attack
against its columns.
Somewhere on the government reser
walton targets representing marching
columns and trains are located. The at
tack against these targets was to bt
made in waves, with one minute elapS
ing between each attack. The first
squadron was TO 90 into action and al
ter sweeping over the enemy, one min
ute later the second was to attack and
likewise the third in its turn. The first
squadron was still to keep up the har'
aSsmcnt and followed by the other two
until the enemy's lines and trains be
come so diSorganizcd that a halt was
imperative.
The interval attack system grew out
of experiences during the war. 1t was
said that in France attacks from the
air showed that in most cases, esle
cially in attacks against wagon trains
the men seek cover after the first at
tack. When this passes over they CONT
back into the open and try to move
ahead. With the interval attacks il
is the plan to permanently halt the
advance of the enemy, destroy the
trains and kill off the men as they
come into the open.
Fridays problem will also show how
long it will take the air service Il
concentrate a force OF machine gun
against an advancing enemy and hal
their march until ground troops can b
brought up. The machine gun force Of
each of the fifteen ships that left Kell,
Field represented the strength of a ma
chine gun company. These guns ca
be dismOunted and set up on the ground
The concentration Of the fifteen ship
at Laredo consequently represented tn
same strength as fifteen machine gun
companies. Unless wiped out by ar
| tillery. il was said. this force SHOULD
make an appreciate obstacle to an.
advancing army. The limit. however
to the number Of machine guns tina
could be concentrated upon short motto,
| depends only on the number Of plane
available at the airdrOme nearest TIL
advancing enemy.
The three GAN battle planes at Kel
" Field were held in reserve on TIL
field during the morning. and it wa
not Known at noon whether or not the!
would be sent to join the attacking
group.

AV|ATORS FLY
To LAREDO To
MEET ENEMY
Brig. Gen. William Mitchell
Goes Behind to Watch
Maneuver.
FLIERS WELL ARMED
Problem to Fly 100 Miles,
Attack Enemy, and Then
Return to Base.

The strength and speed of the arm,
air force was placed on trial Frida!
when fifteen DeHaviland planes from
the attack group at Kelly Field tool
off to locate and harass a fictitious
enemy somewhere on the government
reservation near Laredo. Each ship was
equipped with eight machine guns an
bombs. which were to be fired at th'
fictitious enemy when located. The
ships were expected TO return to Sal
Antonio Friday evening.
Fridays maneuver was a problem
worked out to test the speed and
strength of the air force of the army
and determine how long it will take Il
fleet of airplanes to take off from an
sirdome and direct an attack against
an enemy a hundred miles or more away
and return to its base. The problem
was outlined by Brig. Gen. William
Mitchell, assistant chief of the army
air service, who has been at Kelly
Field for the past week, conducting a
tactical inspection. General Mitchell
p6ISOUallN lHSletlGu the udutuNtL
against the enemy. He left Kelly Field
a short while after the fleet from the
attack group left. and expected to reach
Laredo about the same time as those
before him. Col. John II. Howard.
commander of Kelly Field. flew with
General Mitchell, but in another plane.
Col. Clarence c. Culver, air officer of
the Eighth Corps Area, flew to Laredo
with the attacS group.
Take Supplies Along.
The big Martin bomber at Kelly
Field left with the fifteen De Havi-
lands. In the big Martin were enough
Iations to feed the men engaged in the
flight, and also large supply of spare
parts for any ships that may need
them.
The fifteen DcHavilands represented
the three squadrons at Kelly Field
the Goth. 22nd and Ninth. Five ships
from each squadron made up the fleet.
The problem was worked out on the
supposition that the territory of the
United States had been invaded and
that the enemy was marching in the
direction of San Antonio. The air force
was TO assemble at Laredo. locate the
