: EDGE ASKS CONGRESS
TO PROTECT STATE TAX
Fears New Legislation Re
garding Railroads May Im
pair Revenues
i .
TnUNTON", Jnn. 10.
Governor IMbo took tlio Initiative
today as president of the Congress 'of
Statc3 un Equalization of Taxation by
wiring VIco President Thomas H. Mar
thall, president of tho Senate, and
Socalicr of tho Houbo Champ- Clark,
V urging them to hao committees of Con
gress give duo consideration to protect
the taxation privileges of States with
referenco to railroad property in any
new legislation hlcli may resuH from
tho elxstlng governmental control of the
nation's railroads. At the same time,
tho Governor informed by wlro tho Gov-
,. ernors of Maine, Georgia and Kansas
and national olllcers of tho Tax Con
gress or states urging mem 10 ume uir
matter up personally with Senators and
Representatives In Congress.
Tho Governor's telegram to the Presi
dent of the Senate and Speaker of tho
Houso was as follow:
As president of tho Council of
States on Taxation, I lespectfully
draw Jour attention to tho great Im
portance of Bcclng that any congres
sional action vlth regard to govern
mental railroad control does not In
terfere with existing methods or privi
leges nf Individual States or local
units of taatlon on railroad property
anil leccints. At the nivseut timo
this source of taxation In many States
constitutes large portions of State
revenue, and to amend tlin tcm in
any form would greatly embarrass
many States, necessitating new meth
ods of taxation which at this time,
noulrt bo most burdensome and un
fortunate. In commenting upon his nctlon today,
Governor IMgo said that considerable
concern was felt throughout the coun
try lest State and municipal ta on
railroads, especially v. here based on
receipts, might not bo sulllclently kafe
guarded In any Federal railroad bill.
As president of tho Congress of StatVs
on Taxation, recently elected at tho Ini
tial conference authorized by Stato stat
utes, and hold at Atlanta, Ga., the Gov
ernor felt that ho should tuKo tho mat
ter up so that Congress would Lo im
pressed with the Importance of tho ques
tion at Issue.

December 17, It Is alleged, has been
s'crcted or destroyed by Dr. Kuno
Franco, former German curator of the,
Germanic Museum at Harvard College.
Information to this effect has been trans
mitted to a United States Senator by
a member of tho board of overseers
of Harvard College In response, to n re
quest for the production of the docu
ment for publication.
"liver since the Trlbuno published a
description of the contents of tho Inter
view with Kmpcror William which Wil
liam llavard Hale obtained In 1908, nnd
reported Its subsequent suppression by
tho Century Magazlno under most
unusual circumstances involving tho
German Foreign Olllce nnd tho visit of
a German battleship to Xcw York? city.
Influential Washington officials have
been endeavoring to procure publication
of tho single copy of the Interview known
to bo In existence.
"The Trlbuno was enabled to Inform
a leading member of tho Foreign Kcla-
tlfns Committee pi tho bniteu Mates
Senate Interested In the matter that this
copy of the Interview had been ttirmil
-vver to Harvard College as an historical
document. This Information was later
confirmed by William W Ellsworth, of
New York, former president of the Cen
tury Company, who urged this Senator
to use every erftTt to give tho docu
ment to the American public ns a
further evidence of the vwir ambitious
the Emperor of Germany held as far
back as 1908.
"According to additional Information
laid before the Senator, tho single copy
of the Interview had been turned over
to tho Germanic Museum by Donald
Scott, a Harvard graduate, vh had
personal ciiargo of tho suppression
"egntlatcd by the German Foreign Of
fice with the Century Magazine.
"This Information was tommunlcated
to Harvard Collego authorities, with a
request that tho document bo turned
over to the Government for publication
For tho last two weeks Harvard offi
cials havo been searching the historical
archives of tho Wldcner Library ami
the. Germanic Museum. Rut not n trnyo
of tho Interview which bliowed the
Kaiser's Wdr lift, maligned the Itoman
Cathollo Church, leeked of abuse of
England, denounced tho Japanese anil
disparaged the Sultan of Turkey could
bo found. Not even was tlieio any evi
dence that tho document had been re
ceived by tho Harvard Library or mu
seum.
William W Ellsworth, former niesl
dent cf the Century Company, will dis

TWELVE BIG GERMAN
SPIES TRAILED BY U.S.
Best of Detectives Following
Band of Enemy
Workers
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. Twelve
dangerous German enemy aliens, the
last of the horde which sought by sabot
age and propaganda to wage war on

O'Brlan, Assistant Attorney General In
charge of Department of Justice prose
cutions and investigation! of s.plcs and
plotters.
Tho twelve men are being shadowed

employ of tho Government. Tho plotters
aro permitted to entertain a false sense
ot security to that the Government,
through knowledge ot their motives, may
locate other plotters. Within a short
tlmo some of them will bo Interned.
Mr. O'Brlan today discussed tho plans
by which tho Government Is combating
spies In this country.
A number of plcs havo been arrested
not only by tho Department of Justice,
but by orders from, the Intelligence de
partments of tho army and navy. The
Department of Justice has prosecuted
some of the spies and has Interned alt
except those who are being shadowed.
To date no prosecutions have resulted
In death penalties. But Mr. O'Brlan
made It clear that he had no knowledge
of action taken by the War Department
or the Navy Department In caes over
which they assumed jurisdiction.
