TAX ON LIQUOR
TO CONTROL EVIL
Lloyd George Proposes Heavy Sur
Tax on Both Spirits and Beer and
Government Control in Areas Pro
tluclnii Materials of War Political
Opposition Forces Abandonment.
LONDON. April 2D. Chnncollor
of tho exchequer Dnvld Lloyd
Oconto mado known In tho houso of
comiuons this nfteruoou his plan to
denl with tho question with tho too
Kreat consumption of alcoholic II
iiiorn In KnKlaud.
ilo iroposcs a very heavy surtax
on both spirits and beers containing
more than 7 per cent of proof spirits
and thu duty on spirits Is to bo dou
bled. In areas producing materials
of wnr. or lu which transport work
Is performed, nud In soma camp areas
Iho government Is to have complete
control of liquor.
Tho root and branch treatment ori
ginally proposed by Chancellor Lloyd
tieorgo for dealing with tho liquor
problem In Its relation to tho output
of munitions of war, dwindled to a
modest pruning when tho chancel
lor presented tho government's
scheiuo for restricting tho salo of
drink
.Voter Again Hii)n Clinnrellor
Tho chancellor In his opening sen
tence Indicated that tlio difficulties
lio had met with, us ho said:
"After weeks of trying to find a
solution of tho question I am pre
pared to take a pledge never to po
litically touch drink again."
Continuing the chancellor of the
exchequer ssld'thnt nothing but real
necosslty had driven tho government
to submit proposnls on this subject
but It was nboo all Important that
the country bo nblo to untlllzo every
nvnllnblo resourco to Increase tho
supplies of munitions of war. When
tho time enmo to drlvo tho Germans
out of Flanders nud Franco, ho said,
tho expenditure of ammunition and
other war material must bo on a
greater scalo nnd of n moro sus
tained diameter than anything yet
witnessed In any war.
XoocfcHnry to Victory
Tho chnncollor laid particular cm
phnsls upon these remarks for tho
benofit of thoso who might object
to his present proposals.
"Thoso aro necessary," ho do
dared "to Insuro victory; not ultl
mate victory, but victory soon with
out unnecessary loss of life."
Dealing with excessive drinking
among soma workmen, tho chancel
lor of tho exchequer remarked:
"Hvorybody ngrcod on tho oxlst
onco or this evil until tho remedies
wero foreshadowed."
Mr. I.loyd-Georgo also said that
slackness in some Ilrltlsh shipyards
wns cnuslng Borlous anxiety to thoso
lu command of tlio fleet.
Act of DLsclplIno
In Introducing tho present bill to
nmond to tho Defenso of tho lloalm
Act, tho chancellor said ho was not
proposing n solution of tho tempor
alis question, but only an act of
discipline during tho wnr.
With roferenco to his tnslng plan
tho chnncollor estimated that tho
double duty on spirits would yield
tho same total na heretofore, allow
ing for docrensod consumption,
deer would bring In 100,00 oxtra
and wines 1,500,000.
In controlled arous tho government
Is to have tho power, for tho period
of thu wnr, to closo any naloon con
sidered injurious. Compensations
will bo paid to nil thoso whoso pro

TO
From tho quiet, almost obscure
position as rulers of little Delglum,
tho war has mado the Ilclglan royal
family conspicuous In tho eyes of tho
world. Tho retiring, , home-loving
k Ing'and queen- found' tboiuslcs
suddenly In tlit limelight and ns
horo and heroine.
War has stripped them of tholr
country, their palaces and castles,
everything but their souls. Their
children, to whom they wero real
parents, aro tulles nway from them.
Thero never wns anything artlsto
crallc about tho royal houso of Del
glum slnco Albert bcramo king. Tho
ruler had been n scrlous-nilndcd
young man, a student , with a thor
ough knowledge of medicines, me
chanics nnd a particular ability with
electricity.
No relatives picked his wife for
him, It was a genuine lovo match and
tho reason for It, perhaps, was be
cause tho Duchess Kllznbeth of IM'
vnrla wns a student as hlmsolf. Sho
was n daughter of tho Into Duko
Charles Theodore, famed us an oc
ulist, nnd Is a physician and trained
nurso herself.
At tho palnco they spont tho even
ings with their children rather thnn
In recoptlons nnd tho thentro. Their
boys, Crown Prlnco Leopold, 13, and
Prince Charles Theodore, 11, nro cap
ablo musicians, playing tho violin as
does their mother nnd father. Their
girl, Princess Mario Jose, S, Is con
sidered tho most beautiful royal child
In Europe.
