Washington, March 11. Provisions fef nserted ; by senate ' and house con ferees in the railroad control bill, Swhich would limit during the period of government operation the powers of the states to tax railroads, drew at tacks from both sides of the senate "jchamber today. Senator Frelinghuysen of New Jer sey, citing the new senate rule adopted rlast week, prohibiting conferees from 'writing new mattef into bills, made a point of order against the tax provi sion and demanded that the bill be re turned to havj it stricken out. He as jsertfd that both thevsenate and the house had adopted a clause providing rhat the states taxing powers should not be in Iconferees ' Hty. interfered with and that the had exceeded their author- Would Limit Taxes. The conferees stipulated that states shall not tax the railrdads in greater ratio than their taxes bore to the to tal of state taxes during the year pre vious to federal control. ' Senator Curtis of Kansas,' author of .the new senate rule, and Senators Knox of Pennsylvania, Johnson of California,' Williams of Mississippi, Republican Leader Gallinger and oth ers also opposed the conferees' tax jumitation. x - It was 'defended by Senators Smith jof South Carolina and Robinscn of Arkansas. . Senator Knox said that governors of many states had been assured that the bill could not curtail state tax ing powers. - v The conferees' provision would ab rogate California's constitution, which gives the legislature the right to in crease railroad taxes, declared Sen ator Johnson of California. Senator Gallinger asserted that it conflicted with New Hampshire's, laws. '-' : i Effect Artificial Increase. During the debate Senator Sher man of Illinois charged that by im position of new switching and car "spotting" charges, amounting A to $176,000,000 annually in Illinois alofle, it was proposed to "bolster up" fed eral control and artificially, increase railroad revenues. ' - Upon the suggestion of Majority Leader . Martin consideration of the conference report was temporarily laid asjde so certain precedents in volving this question could be exam ined." No time was named for resum ing consideration of the report, but senate leaders did not believe it would be reached until tomorrow; v The senate then took up considera tion of the urgent deficiency bill GEEMAN INTIGRUE .

"It-is inconceivable' he added, "if we are to wake any accounting that it shall be made without an accounting from: Germany for the destruction made of property f American citi zens. God forbid that I should pro--tect interests of the German people any more than I am compelled to." That Germany regards the 1799 dreary- as "a mere scrap of paper" was "asserted by1 Senator Underwood of Alabama, who said the treaty does not interfere with the. sale of German property proposed., - America in Earnest -"Let the junkers know that Amer ica is fighting in earnest," said Mr. Underwood. "It is. entirely probable that the German emperor himself, holding in the names of jother persons, owns a large part of the property in volved." Senator Stone of Missouri, chair- man of the .foreign relations commit tee, said ' that examination of the treaty of 1799 and various authorities on international law convinced hirn that the amendment authorizing the sale of enemy property was proper. He . said his purpose in asking? that consideration of the amendment when called up last Saturday be postponed was to permit him to make this in quiry, for if the amendment conflicted with the treaty he did not think the United States "should follow a bad example in the treatment of our obli gations as scraps of paper." . Adheres to Treaty. "The proud thing in our history is the fact that the United States ad heres even if it might xbe to its great disadvantage to its solemn, faith and pledge," Senator Stone added. "I wanted to look into this matter. As a result of my investigations, I con cluded that this legislation was proper and hence was taking no part in the discussion." . " ; ' lit urging his amendment providing for public -auction sales of enemy property, prohibiting private negotia tions, Senator Frelinghuysen said his purpose was to protect American mi nority stock interests in German owned corporations. He also urged that the alien property custodian act should be subject to review. Senator Martin opposed the amendment, which is subject to a final vote later, on the ground that it might handicap Mr. Palmers' action. , Germans Won't Relinquish v Big Drive On West Front Washington, March 11. -Nothing has developed to indicate that the Germans have abandoned their plans for a great offensive in the west, says the War department's weekly review of the military situation published to day. ' . ' .Meanwhile the allies, the statement continues, have taken an alert defen sive and are content to let the enemy break against their impregnable line, pregnable line. The review discloses that the prin cipal sector occupied by American troops is four and a half miles long and it emphasizes that the Americans hold trenches at four separate points on the French front. Germany's sweep into the heart of Russia is seen as another futile at tempt to shift the center o! the war AnotKer Bee Reporter Leaves To Enter Service of Uncle Sam Chandler Trimble, another member of The Bee editorial staff to enlist for army service, leaves today for Atlanta, Ga., where he is ordered to report at the school of military Aeronautice for training for a commission in aviation.

It is in such fundamental ways as this that Armour and Company are rendering a broad, economic serv ice to the American public.

Tills Will Interest Stomach Sufferers Says Indig eitioa comet from aa , exeeit of hydrochloric ' acid. A well-known authority states that stomach trouble and indigestion Is nearly always due to acidity- acid stomach and not, as most folks be lieve, from a lack of digestive juices. He states that an excess of hydroch- one acid in the stomach retards di gestion and starts food fermentation. then our meals sour like garbage in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases. which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. We then get that heavy, umpy feeling in the chest, we eruc tate sour food, belch gas or have heartburn, flatulence, waterbrash or nausea. He tells us to lav aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any phar macy four ounces of Jad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast while it is ef fervescing, and furthermore, to con tinue this for one week. While relief follows the first dose, it is important to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making masB, start the liver, Sim ulate the kidneys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juices. jad salts is inexpensive and Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice combined with lithia and sodium phosphate.
