We Will Help You to Save Safely fktrtjer fcatoings and Crust (£& lnsjuunus New Premier of France Is Peace Agent Ready to Support Any Reasonable Project Designed to Settle World Strife. By JOHN DE GAJTDT. I'nitfd Press Staff Correspondent. (Copyright, 1921, by United Press.) PARIS, Jan. 18. —France is ready to support any reasonable project designed to bring about a regime of justice and pence throughout the world, Aristide Briand, the new premier, declared today. This interview, the first given by Briand since he took the premiership, was considered especially important In view of the present agitation for disarmament. Briand, however, indicated bis ministry would be firm in compelling Germany to make full reparation for war damages "I am resolutely pacifist,” he declared. “I will support with all my efforts any organization or project susceptible of gathering all the good will of the world so as to establish, little by little, in a serious and durable manner, a regime of peace and Justice between nations. “It Isn’t the people who ignore tte necessary steps who most quickly reach the goal.” Briand then related the hare and tortoise fable to explain his idea of attaining a real peace. “I am not a hare,” he asserted. The statement given the United Press was accepted as part of the platform he was later to enunciate In presenting his selections to the chamber. “Two matters will occupy my mind,” Briand said. ‘These are disarmament and reparation.” He insisted that Germany must be stripped of all armament to relieve France of the danger of attack. “It was Germany’B kaiser who constantly menaced with bis dry powder and his sharpened sword. I do not deny the profound political change which has been effected in our former enemies. They became democratic—but no true democrat can be made in one day. France nnd even the whole world—it is to the latter’s interest—must demand Germany's disarmament. Furthermore, if the democratic transformation of the people is sincere I cannot see in what respect this measure will embarrass them.” “We might repeat Atllla's words,” he said: “‘There where the German sword passed, the grass no longer grows.’ ’’ ‘l’ll try to solve the problem of reparations in accord with our allies,” Briand said, “always taking account of the suggestions and advice of our American friends. "I will always be ready to agree with those suggestions which are dictated by 1 the demands of reality and watchfulness for all contingencies. This care for the possibilities does not mean renunciation of ideals, but simply a comprehension of the facts and circumstances.” REFUSES TO AID IN PEASE CASE Attorney General Declines to Seek Reopening. Efforts of officers of the Juvenile court to induce U. S. Lesh, attorney general, to cooperate in seeking reopening of the ct.se of Charles Pease before the Appellate Court hare failed, as the attorney general has given an opinion that it would be “inexpedient and useless” to petition for a rehearing. Pease, a local contractor, was fined SIOO and sentenced to ninety days on the State farm on a charge of contributing to the delinquency of a girl. lie appealed and the carelessness of someone in not properly attaching a signature to a copy of the affidavit which is a part of the transcript resulted in the higher court falling to sustain Judge Frank I.ahr. John F. Engelke, investigator of the Juvenile court, claims he signed the original affidavit against Pease. Connty Clerk Sipe maintains that he has In his office proof of carelessness on. the part of Juvenile court attaches, as several affidavits on which persons have been brought into court have not been signed and in some cases no seal has been attached. Huntington Assessor to Be Given Hearing An early hearing will be given George H. Paul, assessor of Huntington township, Huntington County, charged with incompetence and neglect of duty, by E. E. Gard. connty assessor, members or the State beard of tax commissioners, with whom the charges were filed, state. Mr. Paul is charged with assessing merchandise far below cash value, permitting appraisements to be made on a different basis to different parties and permitting one set of men to regard a 10 per cent Income as a basis of taxation, while other men were allowed a basis or 8 per cent. Mooseheart Band to AppeauHere Jan. 30 A concert will be given Sunday night, Jan. 30, at the MHrat by the Mooseheart Band, which Is composed of students at Mooseheart, the educational and industrial school maintained by the Loyal Order of Moose for the orphans of deceased members.

Nurses' Legion Post Hits Williams Bill A resolution protesting against passage of House bill No. 20, known as the Williams bill for registered nurses, was adopted at the special meeting of Berry - Copeland Post No. 128, American Legion, last night, in the Red Cross roocs in the Pythian building. The bill was denounced as a measure to lower the standard of registered nurses. If passed, it was declared, the nurses in Indiana would not meet the requirements es the Red Cross, rendering them ineligible for service in the Army and Navy nurse corps. The Berry-Copeland post is the only nurses' post in Indiana. It has accepted the invitation of the Indiana Democratic Club to establish headquarters in the clubhouse.

GLASS POINTS WAY TO REDUCE LIVING COSTS Careful Revision of Revenue Laws Held Means of Relief. DIRECT TAX IS FAVORED WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—Discussing the taxation problem, Senator Carter Glass, former Secretary of the Treasury, today recommendedi Continuation of direct taxes, each as those on income#. Elimination wherever possible of indirect t Jives, like that on excess profits. Economy in governmental expenditures and defeat of protective tariff legislation. By SENATOR CARTER GLASS. Copyright, 1921. by the United Press. WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—An opportunity to ease the burden of unusual living costs still being carried by the American people now Is before Congress, which soon must undertake a general revision of the revenue laws enacted during the war. A far-reaching tendency toward permanently reduced price levels for all commodities can be brought about by Congress through careful readjustment of the incidence of Federal taxes. Direct forms of taxation should be substituted wherever possible for the Indirect forms Into which the war forced our national fiscal policies. Application of this principle to tax law would, I believe, bring beneficial results to the entire population, which ought to be mensurable in millions of dollars subtracted from the aggregate now paid out by the American people for necessities. WOULD REPEAL OR MODIFY. The excess profit tax is one form of indirect tax and the protective tariff another. Both have an appreciable influence in the direction of higher costs of “ommoditles because all of the indirect taxes are multiplied many times over before being paid by the consumer. The excess profits tax should be repealed or radically modified. Congress. In readjusting the methods of collecting revenue, should depend ts the J fullest extent possible on the personal Income tax which is the least nartnful means of meeting governmental expenditures. It Is a direct tax which, when graduated In accordance with the means of taxpayers, is shifted only with great difficulty and then to a very limited extent. Governmental expenditure Is the most vital factor In increasing the cost if living. Increased costs were experienced In all of the countries Involved In the world war. But In the United States these Increases were not so great as In most of the countries associated with us. This was due to the financial policies <*l ipted here. BUNDING FACTOR ELIMINATED. Bonding the Government to meet war costs wus discontinued months ago In the United States. This mean the elimination of one of the l>ie factors In increasing costs. We still have the revenue lavs of the period and vlth them their Inequalities which could not be avoided at the time when these laws were enacted. The inequalities tan now be ellmlnted. which means one more step lq the Job of detaching the United States from the war period. To make possible complete detachment, however, we must place the most rigid economy In Government expenditures. It Is to be hoped that the entire country will take a firm stand In demanding that Congress deny every proposal for expenditures In new fields or the continuance or expansion of old unless they represent Imperative and unquestioned . need. Rebuke should be quick and i sharp to those elements of the popula- j tion which proposes governmental ex- | pendltures intended to benefit a single j group or portion of a community at the expense of the whole. The burdens which would result fall most heavily upon those elements of the population least able to bear them. Increases in living costs resulting from governmental expenditure form an Indirect tax which bears heavily upon the poor while the rich escape, since expenditures for the necessities of life absorb practically the whole income of the poor and a negligible portion of the Income of the rich. America began this period of war adjustments stronger economically, financially and politically, probably, than any other nation. Let ns keep onr country c.t the head of the International column. The public debt is but a fraction of our national wealth. Our credit nDd financial structure is sound and secure; onr gold reserves are the greatest In the world. Industrial prosperity Is at hand. The serious problems before us are but’ a challenge to our statesmanship and our patriotism, which has never failed. It will not fall now. Governor to Talk to Service Club Monday Governor Warren T. McCray will be the speaker at the weekly meeting of the Service Club Monday. Herbert J. Ryan, chairman of the Americanization committee of the national headquarters of the Amerlen‘> Legion, was the principal speaker at the meeting yesterday, at the Hotel Lincoln In outlining the program of the Americanization committee, Mr. Ryan said the greatest effort would be made through the schools. He pointed out that in many public schools American history is taught without teaching any patriotic spirit along with It. He cited instances where teachers had been dismissed because of this negligence through the vlgilapee of tbe Americanization committee. __ • 1 —— For quality and flueness Moorefleld’s copper V A tone portraits are mosts popular.

AMBUSH FAILS; TWO ARE KILLED Sinn Feiners Suffer for Attack on Police. DUBLIN, Jan. 18.—Two Sinn Feiners were reported to have been killed when a detachment of policemen was ambushed near Coulon Cross today. The policemen were on their way from the barracks at Six-Mile Bridge. A volley of shots was fired from a house and the police returned the tire. Later the house was burned in reprisal. Four hundred British soldiers were landed from destroyers on Cape Clear, at the southwestern extremity of Ireland, today and made an exhaustive search of the whole locality. No arrests were made. The military cordon thrown about a large part of North Dublin Sunday night has been lifted. The only result was a few unimportant arrests. Soldiers surprised a party of Irish civilians setting an ambuscade bear Timoleague. After an exchange of several volleys tbe civilians fled, but twenty-five were captured. Many prisoners taken within the last month will be brought to trial early In February on charges of taking part in the murder of fourteen British officers in Dublin Nov. 21.
