Phe state department considers that fve and unjustifiable injury to erican commerce would follow buld an attempt be made to enforce bvisions affecting business in this intry. [Phe ‘“‘trading with the enemy” act bhibits persons resident in Great fitain from trading with any cor- tion or individuals which are en- in supplying the Teutonic al- or have business realings with Sufficient Justification. he position of the United States that, aside from a lack of legal hority for the proposed interfer- with trade, the relations of hperican and German capital and German capital with American nufacturing industries are such it would be impossible to aim iccessful blow at Germany without patly damaging interests in this patry. This last fact in itself is dered sufficient justification for jlection to the application of the to American trade.

At this pe it is considered that there is |t ground for a formal protest ainst the legislation, as such action the usual practice, can be taken ly In case such an act is directed a neutral nation whose interests p supposed to be affected. [fhe representations will serve the pose of warning Great Britain it the act is regarded as being holly unfair and that proper com- [psation will be expected for any jury suffered by American trade. Backed by Precedent. Officials regard the American posi- in_as being amply backed by pre- dent set in the early days of the public and during the Spanish nerican war. In addition, Great n itself has made objections to empts to injure the trade of an jlemy at the expense of a neutral. a broad sense, the United States nsiders that the product of the citi- i jor subject of a belligerent state ng in a neutral state must be re- rded as belng neutral.

HILLES PREDICTS G. 0. P, VIGTORY | Republican Chalrman Issues Chal- lenge to President Wilson Chicago, chairman Jan. of uttered 25.—Charles D. Hilles, the republican national vesterday a care- fully prepared challengo to President Wilson in anticipation of the dent's swing around the circle. committee, pres Hamilton club luncheon in honor of the national committee officials who met here to make preliminary ar- rangements for the party conventipn at the Coliseum on Jjune 7. Draft of Platform. Mr. Hilles' speech is accepted by politicians as the first rough draft of the Coliseum plaiform of 1916 if the elements whom Chairman Hilles rep- resented as hecad of the organization in the Taft campaign are in control of the committee on resolutions and of the convention. A dozen particular points of at- tack, aside from the tariff, Chairman Hilles said, are available for a winning fight by a united Republican party. War Only Mainstay. “If it were not for the abnormal congitions created by the war in Eu- rope President Wilson and his friends wotilld have no argument to offer for his re-election,” said Chairman Hilles. “Very recently I sent a question- naire to each of the 3,300 members of Republican state and county commit- tees throughout the nation, to which I had a prompt response. It is the consensus of opinion that record of the Wilson administration insures re- publican victory this year. Wilson's conduct of affairs of government has been a keen disappointment, even to men who supported him—and he re- ceived 2,000,000 less than a majority of the votes cast. Breach Practically Healed. “An expression of my own opin- ion as to the course that will be pur- sued by the general staff officers of any other political party would be an injudicious obtrusion, but from every state, save Maine, the republican com- mitteemen report that the breach of 1912 may be regarded as practically healed. There is no silly sentiment that victory will come no matter what our party may do between now and November. “We know that there fight before us Our victories of November did not come as manna, but were achieved in the sweat of our brows. Wise action will bring victory, snd that kind of action will be car- ried on. last TUBEROULAR CATTLE Deputy Cattle Commissioner Has Conference With Commission. Hartford, Jan. 25 Dr. Frank A. Ingram, of this city, deputy cattle commissioner had a conference yes- terday with the tuberculosis commis- sion in the capitol on the difficulty experienced in preventing the impor- tation of cattle suffering from tuber- culosis into this state and the slaugh- tering of animals afflicted with the disease for food. Dr. Ingram said there was a regular business done in the importation of disease cattle by importers of the cattle in the states bordering Connecticut and those who received them here. He referred in a general way to the difficulties of sup- pressing the trafc. Dr. ngram said therp were number of model dairies in the state principally in New Haven county and along the shore. The cattle in these dairies were looked after very care- fully to see that they did not contract the disease or any other disease of an infectious nature. Dr. Ingram said the department with which he was officially connected had no fund from which to pay owners of cattle the appraised value of the animals which might be con- demned. This inability to pay for the animals the amount of appraisal hampered the work of the depart- ment from the fact that it prevented co-operation between the owners and officia a T. B. ¢ Winsted, Jan.

RENDERS REVENUE PRUoLEM EASIER Supreme Court’s Decision Upholding Constitutionality of Income Tax Law. Washington, Jan. 25.—Legislation to increase governmental revenues to meet the expenses of national defense is expected to take definite shape now that all doubt as to the constitution- ality of the income tax has been re- moved by the supreme court's deci- sion. Congressional leaders have taken no definite steps toward a solu- tion of the revenue problem pending the court’s decision. On all sides today the leaders ex- pressed the belief that the decision had paved the way for increasing the tax rate on great private fortunes to | aid in paying for national defense. | Bills to tax incomes of more than are now before congress. The democrats naturally are grati- fied over the decision. 1In the opin- jon of administration leaders the de- cision has unfettered a fruitful source of revenue and rendered easier the revenue problem confronting the gov- ernment. Representative Hull of Tennessee, author of the income tax law, ex- presses the belief that congress will take advantage of the decision to amend the law materially. He de- clares that without any unusual or un- just changes it can be made to vield an additional $100,000,000 annually. The law now brings into the treas- ury $85,000,000 to $90,000,000.
