MILITARY MEN CONFIDENT
Military men went to the task of war
preparation with freshened zeal today. They
figured that with German casualties now
totaling 3,000,000 or more, and with ceo
Romlc strain Increasing constantly, the force
Of the Allies, augmented next year bv
America, must bring the Inevitable revolu
tion which the United States anticipates.
"Another million casualties will force
the Germans Into line and make them
abandon kalserlsm," said one expert today.
Some of the optimistic believe Germany
will begin to see light by winter, and that
Wilson's, plea "will then,' be heeded. Others
say tt may take" a year cr two that Is,
until America's full strength Is felt before
the Germans tense the program they must
follow to get peace.
EXPECT MICHAELIS'S FALL
The early downfall of Chancellor George
Ulchaells ta predicted. Mlchaelis, officials
and diplomats point out, will go because
the leaders of both factions are convinced
already that he Is not strtng enough for
Ms Important post. If the junkers can con
trol through the slogan they are considered
Certain to set up, that President Wilson's
only desire Is to crush Germany, they will
name a man of their own typo who will
throw responsibility for continuation of the
war on the United States and fight on as
long as possible. If the reformers control
and that statement Is based on Information
which was In possessloh of the President
when he penned the latest paper the new
Chancellor will be Count Jchann von Bern
storlT, and his acceptance of the office will
be followed by a new peace offer from the
German viewpoint. This will Include a
tatement that ruthless submarine warfare
has been temporarily abandoned.
The Pope, It Is believed. Is done with
peace attempts for some time. Ills thought
was that one nation could not Impose upon
another a form of government control.
President Wilson has pushed this thought
forcibly. His friends explain that this Is
not an Interference with German rights;
Jt Is a protection of world rlghtB upon which
Kalserlsm has Infringed.
While all the Allies will answer. It Is
.5 t believed here that their replies, for the
most pari, wiji consist in general approval
of tho President's expressions.

Iteturns from more than 100 lines of
business dealing In tho food supplies of
tho nation, showing the amount of stocks
on hand and In transit on August 31, will
have an Important bearing on the general
grain and flour situation as an Index to
the distribution of grain and grain pro
ducts, and the proportionate burden that
they must bear In meeting the needs of tho
country. It was said today by II. D. Irwin,
second vice president of the United States
Food AdmlnHtrntlon Qraln Corporation,
and in charge of Pennsylvania, Indiana
and Ohjp section, with offices In the Phila
delphia Bourse.
Mr. Irwin Is Interested In the quantities
of grain and flour that will be reported In
the hands of elevator operators, millers,
dealers, bakers, grocers and other large
holders and users of'cereals and their man
ufactured products.
The country elevators and warehouses are
to send In records of the amount of grain
held each week, nnd the millers, small as
well as large, eventually will be provided
with requisitions for grain to keep them
going for the subsequent thirty days. Thus
Mr. Irwin will lie apprised of the carloads
of grain that he must supply to the 1850
millers In Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania,
and will direct his shipments accordingly
Mr trwln'n office also Includes dealing
In potatoes. The Federal survej, besides
the cereals and potatoes, Includes meats,
lard, oils. fWi. sugar nnd condensed nnd
evaporated milk Blanks havo been mailed

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.
The Senate this afternoon, by n vote
of 40 to 35, adopted the McKcllnr
amendment to the war revenue bill pro
viding n zone system on second-class
mail. The amendment increases postal
rates on magazines and newspapers
which arc distributed more than 300
miles from the point of publication.
It increases the rate on publications
sent 1800 miles or more to cifiht cents
a pound.
WASHINGTON", Aug. 2D.
An Increase of $198,000,000 In war profits
taxes has been decided on by the Senate
Finance Committee.
An amendment to tho war revenue bill,
providing for this Increase, Is to bo offered,
probably today.
Tho committee mado this concession to
tho Borah-Johnson group, which Is fighting
to mako swollen war profits pay a bigger
share of tho nation's war bill.
Under tho proposed amendment the total
sum to bo raised from war profits would
be $1,000,000,000, as against $562,000,000
for which the bill now provides. It amounts
to a 40 per cent, Instead of the original
26 per cent tax.
Chairman Simmons said he did not believe
the amendment would be supported by Un
derwood nnd Ilanlthead, leaders of the
southern Insurgents. Neither will it bo
acceptable to the Borah-Johnson group, who
want to ralso about half a billion more from
war profits.
"nut I sugested the amendment on my
own Initiative," said Simmons, "In hope. It
will satisfy n sufficient number of Senators
to lnsuro adoption."
The southern Insurgents are holding out
for elimination of the pre-war period plan
of computing profits on the ground that
it penalizes the profits made since the war
began and makes Impossible recouping of
losses of lean years before the war.
The proposed amendment provides an ex.
emptlon from war profits of not les sthan
6 per cent nor moro than 10 per cent of
total capital Invested.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.
King Coal Is upon tho official carpet to
day. Coal prices are under the examina
tion of Dr. Harry A. Garfield, who has been
named by President Wilson to fix a price
on coal for the duration of the war.
The first step In the fixing of the coal
price will be a thorough review of the
results of the Investigations made Into the
anthracite and bituminous coat Industries
by tho Federal Trado Commission. Doctor
Garfield does not Intend to have any long-drawn-out
Investigation, but hopes to hae
n retail price fixed on coal, as well as a
wholesalo price, within a fortnight at the
least.
It Is the opinion of the coal administra
tion that the coa'l producers have been glen
ample opportunity to present their case to
Administration officials before this time and
thero will be no general conference of coal
producers called, Tho testimony taken In
the coal hearings, held by the Secretary of
the Interior and tho Secretary of the Nnvy,
will be used largely In determining the
prlco of coal.
In Instances where Stato commissions
have made Investigations, this evldenco will
be used. In the case of tho State of In
diana It has been found that a State In
vestigation found tho cost of coal produc
tion much lower than that found by the
Federal Investigators. Kvery effort will be
made to sift all the evidence nnd reach a
price fair to both the public and the pro
ducer Tho problem of coal production also faces
the coal administration It Is expected
that one of the first steps taken will be to
order all mines opened and coal produced.
Tho penalty for closed mines will be com
mandeering by tho Government Under the
food bill, which gives It tho power. Reports
havo come of tho closing of several large
mines by the owners on the pretext that
the price paid for tho product Is not suf
ficient to meet the operating costs. The
mines will bo Immediately open upon ordern
of Dr. Garfield Labor Is an Important
element In the fixing of a coal price, and
before taking any advanced steps Dr. Gar
field contemplates conferences with leaders
In the coal workers' Industry It Is his
purpose to attempt to reach an agreement
with them concerning tho continuity of their
working agreements for the period of the
war.
supply to meet wartime needi wa P
slblilty today.
Operators were silent while United Mine
Workers ofllclals awaited reply to their In
vitation for a Joint conference to discuss
tho wage Increase proposed yesterday. The
miners, however, expect the .operators to
agree to a conference.
There were Intlnlatlons among pessimis
tic operators here that they were about
ready to turn their mines over to Coal Dic
tator Garfield and let him wrestle with their
problems.
Confronted on one side with a maximum
price for coal and on the other by the
miners' request for Increased pay, the
operators feel, as one put It, that they are
"between tho devil and the deep blue sea,"
On the other hand, union officials pointed
out, they offered, If necessary, to go to
Washington nnd show their need for higher
wages, In nn effort to secure an upward re
vision of the present coal maximum price.
Miners feel they are In' Just as tight a
corner ns the operators. They point to rap
Idly rising prices of tho necessities of life
and to their fixed wage and see a hard
winter ahead unless they get -a raise.
