Tho total ex penditures of the ministry of wur were one hundred and nineteen bll | lion francs, while the Navy Dopart j met spent only six billion francs. | According to M. Klots it would be relatively easy to meet the 10,000,- 000,000 franc deficit of* 1019 by an increase in indirect taxes, an income tax. receipts from the liquidation of war stock and a revision of the law ' governing the transportation of troops over French railroads by rharging the allies for transporta | tion, as the French are charged. I Concerning the tax on capital proposition, M. Klots said the French capitalist taxpayer would not be call ed on to pay one cent, of additional taxes Germany's indemnity figures to France were settled upon and i guaranteed. I M. Klots did not heed numerous i interpellations from all sides of the ' c hamber asking him to name the amount which would be demanded ' from Germany.

Nations, the plans of which have i been discussed and will be given out i shortly, as the only means for France | to balance future budgets. > MANY SEEK NOMINATION* New Bloomfield, Pa., March 14. !
