IICN'S SEE DEVASTATED FRANCE
OX WAY TO CONFERENCE.
German Press Says French Officers
and British Representative Main
tained Cold Attitude.
AMSTERDAM, Nov. 27. The armis
tice conferences between the German
delegates and Marshal Foch and his
assistants early this month were car
ried out in the most business-like man
ner possible and apparently without
notable incidents, according to a long
account given the Berlin Vossische
Zeitung by a member of the German
party.
After the French met the German
commissioners they were driven for
ten hours in automobiles to an ap
pointed rendezvous. "It seemed to me,"
says the narrator, "that the drive was
intentionally prolonged in order to
carry us through the devastated prov
inces and prepare us for the hardest
conditions which hatred and revenge
might demand. One of the Frenchmen
pointed to a heap of ruins, saying 'be
hold St. Quentin. :
"We entered a train with blinds
drawn In the evening and awoke In
the morning in the midst of the forest
of Compiegne, surrounded by soldiers.
"Marshal Foch, whom we only saw
twice at the beginning and at the
end of the conference is a stern, plain
man. He did not speak a single word
to us in the tone which formerly dis
tinguished the chivalrous French na
tion. . . .
"Really, there was nothing to nego
tiate. We pointed out the technical im
possibility of some conditions.
"Finally we were obliged to sign."
The narrator remarks that the
French officers and Vice-Admiral
Wemyss, British representative, main
tained a cold attitude, "never tem
pered by a friendly word."

Two of the largest manufacturers of
soft drinks and soda fountain supplies
in the Northwest, the Henry Weinhard
plant and the Puritan Manufacturing
Company, have joined forces to utilize
the Weinhard plant, which represents

This announcement was made yes

the Weinhard plant, who said that the
big plant soon would be in full opera'

The Weinhard plant enjoyed a 50 per
cent increase in business the first ten
months of this year over the cor
responding period of last year, Mr.
Wessinger said. The Puritan Manu
facturing Company has been doing an
approximate yearly business of $200,000.
The combined plants will be op

of the Weinhard plant, but both Milton

Committee, by Party Vote, Ap
proves Simmons Bill.
MINORITY REPORT LIKELY
Republicans Vote Solidly Against
Measure and May Carry Op
position to Senate.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27. Revision of
the war revenue bill was substantially
completed tonight by the Senate finance
committee, amendments perfecting the
programme of raising J6, 000, 000.000 in
1919 were adopted and by a strict party
vote the committee formally approved
Chairman Simmons' plan to make the
limit (4,000,000,000 In 1920, through
reduction of individual and corporation
income rates, elimination of the war
profits tax and reduction of the excess
profits rates.
With the seven Republicans of the
committee voting solidly in opposition.
tne ten Democrats adopted Chairman
Simmons' plan for 1920 to reduce the
normal Income tax rate for Individuals
and corporations from 12 to 8 per cent,
to aoonsn the so per cent war profits
rate after 1919, and to reduce the
excess profits rates in 1920 to a mini
mum of 20 per cent and a maximum of
40 per cent, or two-thirds of the 1919
rate.
Enactment Soon Unlikely.
Although the committee virtually has
completed the bill, it became known
today that the internal revenue bureau
has almost despaired of the enactment
of the measure before January 1, and
has made full plans for collection of
taxes under the old law, by which it
is estimated only 4, 000,000,000 would
be produced next year.
Both the programmes for 1919 and
1920 taxation, except for minor amend
ments to be made when the committee
reconvenes next Friday, virtually were
completed today. After Friday's meet
ing a reprint of the bill will be made
and Chairman Simmons plans to re
port It to the Senate next week. The
Republicans announced they intended
to oppose Inclusion of 1920 rates in
the bill and may file a minority re
port.
Chairman Simmons' plan for 1920
revenue was adopted without change.
Its provision for reduction from 12 to
8 per cent in the normal rates on
individual incomes also provides that
the rate shall be 6 per cent in 1919
and 4 per cent in 1920 on the first
14000 of taxable income.
MeAdeo H Objections.
Chairman Simmons said Secretary
McAdoo does not approve the 1920 pro
gramme in its entirety, as he desired
higher normal rates to continue on
both individual and corporation in
comes and also opposes continuation
of the excess profits taxation plan.
COAST DEFENSE IS SOUGHT
TWEXTY-OXE STATIONS NAMED

Squadrons of Fighting Aircraft of
Every Description Included In
Federal Programme.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27 The Navy
Department's programme for making
permanent the 21 coastal air defense
stations planned for the war was ex
plained to the House appropriations
committee today by Rear-Admiral Tay
lor, chief of construction, who asked
that $85,769,000 be provided for this
work next year. Squadrons of fighting
aircraft of every description will.be
included in the stations along the At
lantic Gulf and Pacific and Insular
possessions.
Among the new stations. Admiral
Taylor said, are those to be erected at
San Francisco, Seward, Alaska, Ha
waiian Islands, Guam and in the Canal
zone.
Admiral Taylor said the fastest air
plane in the world was built in the
United States. This machine, known
as the Kirkham triplane. developed a
speed of 160 miles an hour and ex
periments are contemplated to see if
it cannot do better than that.
Since the signing of the armistice,
aviation contracts amounting to $36,
000,000 have been canceled. Admiral
Taylor said.

hatred or contempt. The missives prob

TEXAS' STATUS PECULIAR
Prohibition Law Invalid, Yet State
Legally Is "Dry."
DALLAS, Tex., Nov. 21. Although
the court of criminal appeals has de
clared the Texas statutory law pro
hibiting sales of intoxicating liquors
unconstitutional and refused a motion
for rehearing today, ' Attorney-General
B. F. Looney declared the state is still
legally "dry," and his department will
spare no effort authorized by law to
prohibit traffic in intoxicating liquors.
The state comptroller, lollowtng an
opinion given by the Attorney-General, I
says ne will lanuc Jeiiiiiis lu dcuui c
licenses to sell liquor in Texas.
The Attorney-General holds that
only the portion of the law which pro
hibits selling intoxicants is affected by
the recent decision, and that 'those
parts which make it a felony to trans
port, advertise, deliver, receive or store
liquors are still in force.
