BATTLE OF WILLS IN RUHR CENTERS ABOUT TAXATION Invaders Impose Tribute on Wines, Tobacco and Cigarettes, By Vnitrd Press DUSSELDORF, March 2.—The struggle of wills In the Ruhr centered today on the issue cf taxation. Following announcement by the German government that all goods upon which taxes had been paid to the French and Belgians would be confiscated by the civil authorities. General Degoutte announced the invaders' plan. Collection of taxes on Ruhr products is the new Franco-Belgian scheme for securing a portion of the reparations payments they are missing through occupation. General Degoutte today decreed such collections effective on all wines, tobacco and cigarettes sold in the occupied area. Hotels and citizens who pay these taxes, in defiance of their government’s orders, will be given protection by the armies of occupation. The situation narrows down to a shopkeeper being forced to decide whether, when he makes a sale of articles on the new tax list, he prefers to pay up to 40 per cent to the French and Belgians, and run the risk of having the goods confiscated or whether he chooses to refuse payment to the invaders, and have them seize and confiscate the goods.
