MUNICH WILL BECOME
 THE NEW CAPITAL CITY

 of Berlin Government.

Amsterdam, Holland, Nov. 9.-A telephone message from Munich this morning says that Adolph Hitler de- clares that the revolution which start ed in Germany five years ago has ended, that the Berlin government and President Eber have been de- throned and that Munich will hence forth be the seat of the imperial gov Crnment.

 Stop Drinking

New Haven, Nov. 9.-CrGlng those persons who have lawfully acquired a store of alcoholic liquors 10 foreeo the legal right to use IL for beverage ptrposes in order that the Straints of the constitution may bear more nearly alike upon the rich and poor the central committee of the wom- ans church union at q recent meet ing unanimously passed the following resolutions:
 Text of Resolutions.
 Resolved, That the members Of the central committee of the Wom- ans church union of New Haven af- firm their belief that the cons-.tution of the United States lies near to the very heart of our government, ana that the persistent efforts to fout and ignore the 18th amendment nave become a national menace.
 We believe that lax enforcement of the Volstead act and the Connec- ticut liquor law causes contempt for all law and encourages citizens and officials to believe that they have the right to pick and choose the laws that shall be obeyed.
 We, therefore, urge the judges, prosecuting attorneys, mayor and the police officials of our city to use every means within their boyer to enforce impartially and vigorously the prohi- bition laws and all laws that are for the moral welfare of the common wealth.
 We promise our personal and united support to those officials of our state and city governments who fearlessly enforce the law.
 We urge persons who have law fully acquired store of alcoholic liquors 10 forego the legal right to use it for beverage purposes in order that the restraints of the constitution may bear more nearly alike upon rich and poor, and that the purpose of the l Sth amendment to free our land from the sin and sorrow consequent to the liquor traffic may be furthered.
 Resolved; That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the judges of our city court, 10 the mayor and the chief of police of our city and that copies be given 10 the press"

The proposed gasoline tax bill for
the District, on which IL is hoped tc
bring about automobile reciprocity
with May land, meets with the full ap-
proval OF the Maryland authorities,
John N. Maekall, road commissioned
of that state, told the District Com
missioners in letter today.
The Districts bill sis entirely-satis-
factory" MIR. Mackall's letter de-
clared.
He stated that he would take steps
Immediately TO have the Maryland
delegation in Congress support the
measure to the fullest extent.
This expression, coming from the
state road commissioner, makes IL
practically certain that complete auto
mobile reciprocity will at last be
brought about if Congress has time
TO enact the gas tax bill before adj
tournament next month.
The bill provides for tax Of 2 cents
per gallon on all gasoline used in mo-
tor vehicles, and an annual fee Of 81
for the metal tags. When this legis-
lation becomes effective the present
horsepower charge on automobiles
and the personal property tax will be
abolished.
4he bill provides that the new form
of taxation shall go in effect January
/, 1924, but shah not be effective on
that date unless Maryland agrees on
or before July l, of this year to estab-
lish reciprocity.
The letter received by the Commits
sioners today is looked upon in the
District as forerunner OF the formal
agreement expected from MARY land =
