FINANCIAL NUT FOR KAISER TO CRACK Voerwterts Asks Where Interest and Principal of Oreat war Debt it to Come From. IMPORT TAX' IMPRACTICABLE AMSTERDAM, Deo. 20. Review ing the recent speech on Germany' financial condition, which Dr. Karl llelfferich, secretary of the treasury, made before) the Reichstag, the So rlaliat newspaper, Vorwaerts, of Ber lin, asserts the time has come for the German, government and the Reich stag to indicate in what way the money necessary for payment of In terest on the nation'a gigantic war debts and lo provide for their re- detnpUou, Is to be raised. It aars: "With the naw war credit of tO.OOT.noo.Wu marks the German war deht reached fi.rtin.nro msrks which, according to Dr. llelfferich. ahould lat tinttl the end of March.

Before the war, it says, the flnancal slato of Ofriitany wjs a source of anxiety to tlie government. In !!, taxation was Inctcnsed by :0P. OW.OOrt marks, but the budget did not balance. In 1913 the government adopted the extrordlnary measure of taxing wealth and levying a non-recurrent con tribution for armament in order to cover the deficit. Maintenance of the existing financial system, the Vorwaerts continues. Is In possible so fsr ss taxation of Imports Is concerned. Provisions, raw materl-.ils and many other attic Irs may be expected to rlsi In price after the war and If the present tariff were continued. It would lead to an artificial Increase of prices for tier-many which would undermine the capability of Herman Industry to compete In the world market. Import Tax Impracticable. "Therefore, the Interests of consumers and producers," the Vorwaerts concludes, "deniii nd aholltlon of these Import taxes after the war, which would reduce Oer ninny's income considerably; and, there fore, the time has come for the govern ment to declare what course It I steering " Alleged Swindlers of Iowa Farmer May Not Be Tried Again CHICAGO.
