IJTCJiUDED IN THE FRONT HELD BY AMERICANS With the American Forces on the Sedan Front, Monday, Nov. 11, 7 p. m. (By the Associated Press.) Stenay, on the right bank of the Meuse, was included in the territory held by the American trooops in the last hours of the offensive. f Knowing that a hundred civilians were in the place no serious effort had been made to take the town earlier as that would have required a bombard ment. When the . operations began early in the day the American line skirted. a little wood at a corner of the town and was within 600 yards of - it at another. In those placets ( advanced patrols had been stationed. ' It was not a solid line and while shells of all callibre shrieked their way from the American batteries over the town into the Germln lined and flanks and on the positions in the rear, it was not known whether the district had been evacuated. The correspondents of The Associated Press rode beyond the fixed positions on the front line along an excellent road passed the patrol and reached the city. The Germans had gone. The civil ians were yet in hiding. The streets were wholly deserted. The two cor respondents were the . first Americans to enter 'the place since it had been occupied by the Germans. A few minutes later patrols moved up from other positions and shoftly before 11 o'clock American sentries were posted at the entrances to- the town on the opposite side.

Washington, Nov. 12. Government financial needs for many years are al most certain . to run above $4,000,000, 000 annually, treasury experts esti mate, and most of -the money rajsed by taxation.. Consequently students of government finances think the taxes imposed last year and paid in June probably will not be lightened mate rially by the advent of peace. Secretary P'cAdoo today warned that taxes . necessarily would be high for many years to' pay off war debts, and that additional government loans would be required. He did not attempt to forecast how big the volume of taxes would be. Roughly, treasury officials and con gressional leaders in charge of reven ue legislation figure this way: Ordinarily government expenses which ran around a billion dollars a year before the war, now will amount to at least ?2,OOQ,000,000 annually for many years and for two or three years after the war may be double that fig ure. If the $16,850,000,008 of Lriberty bonds already issued are increased in 4 1 volume. by later- loansto $ 2&,oa0,000.0 0, the interest on this sum would amount to about ?l,000,0t!,0,000 a year. In ad dition it probably will be 'the govern ment's policy to establish a slnk- jing fund to pay off the bonds at ma turity and this would require about $1,250,000,000 a year. These three items would make an aggregate of nearly $4,250,000,000. To offset this there would be near ly a half billion dollars comipg in an nually from the allies as Interests on their loans which now amount to sev en billions and are likely to run much higher; and revenue from customs and miscellaneous sources, which last year amounted to about $450,000,000. With allowances for wide variations in these calculations . there would still remain about three and a half billion dollars to be raised from internal rev enue collections. Last year $3,643,000,000 came from internal revenue. Factors which make this system of estimates highly tentative, officials point out is that the war is not yet definitely over so far as expense is concerned. Restitution policies, yet to be formulated, will have much to do with determining how many existing government war time agencies shall be continued. The methods of applying taxes after the war also are receiving attention. If the schedule of income taxes now being framed in the new revenue bill works out well, it is considered proba ble that the bulk of after-the-war rev enue, will come from income levies which next year will yield probably $2,300,000,000. Excess profits taxes probably would automatically be abandoned after the war and liquor revenue will stop if the contemplated prohibition amendment is ratified. It is almost certain that the multitude of minor taxes . now levied on trans portation insurance, admissions, club dues, the excise taxes, stamp taxes and special taxes on certain businesses now yielding comparatively, little rev enue and very difficult of administra tion will , be abandoned. Tobacco and estate taxes probably will remain, it is said. !VICTORY" BREAD SOON TO BE THING OF PAST In Its Stead Bread Made From Whole Wheat Flour Will Smile at Ameri- - ca's Million. Washington, Nov. 12. "Victory" bread soon will disappear from the American table. Its place will be taken by bread made from whole wheat flour." Victory for American and allied arms, however, is responsible only 'in part for the change. It is chiefly due, according to the 1 food administration, to the tremendous wheat crop raised by 'the American farmer this year, the ,vast stories in- Australia and otner .wheat .growing countries uw available and" to 'a serious world short age in dairy -needs. Milling of more wheat will tend to alleviate the short age in dairy feeds through production of bran. ORGANIZED LABOR IN NEW YORK TO CELEBRATE VICTORY ' New York, Nov. 12.

AUSTRIAN EMPEROR OUT Charles Reported to Have Gone The Way of WilKelm. (By the Associated Press). The guns everywhere are mute. Hostilities have given way to prepa rations by the, defeated enemy to evac uate all invaded, territory in accord ance with the terms of the armistice and by the entente forces to take ,up the strategic positions assigned to them in order that the foe may be un able to resume fighting. Although the British. Belgian, French and American armies have stacked arms they nevertheless are on the alert for any eventuality. And thus it is purposed they shall remain, untiL-the peace which will make the world safe for democracy has arrived. As the German armies In the west wend their way backward across the Rhine, defeated, comes the cry from Germany for an early peace. Starva tion faces the war-torn empire. Ger many which once boasted that it would throw a circle of iron about the Brit ish Isles and starve the people into submission, today is begging not alone for peace but for bread.. . Magnanim ity lies in the outstretched hands of the allies. The German people are not tn ho norm oil tr Viari oH ffir lnnlr ftf food. Sustenance, ia . abundance is 'to ' be"giveh'"them but in doing-so undue--ct privations are not to be visited upon : the peoples of the devastated countries over which the Germans have swept. In Germany proper the new govern mental regime apparently is holding sway. Internal strife seemingly has ended except for a mutiny by sailors, i It is asserted that the northern fleet and Helgoland, the island bastion de fending the coast of northern Germany, are in the hands of the mutineers who have called on the sailors to defend ' the country against the "unheard pre sumption" contained in the allied arm istice terms. Amendments of the allied armistice terms to Germany show that the allies are more exacting than was at first re ported. The Teutons are to be strip ped entirely of their submarines, those wolves of the sea which have caused so much destruction, instead of 160. of " the total number, as first stipulated. The treaties of Bucharest and Brest Litovsk must he renounced and evacu ation of the Rhine lands on both sides of the niver shall be completed with in 31 days. The countries on the left bank of the Rhine are to be adminis tered by local troops of occupation in stead of local authorities under con trol of the armies of occupation. A decrease of military material to be delivered up is to be made, but in- ' stead of 50,000 railroad oars 150,000 must be surrendered. It is again reported that Charles, emperor of Austria and king of Hun gary, has followed the example of his chief colleague In the war, Winiam Hohenzollern, and laid aside his scep tre. MANY MEN WANTED FOR THE MERCHANT MARINE Agents of Shipping Board Ordered to Rush Recruiting of Men to Man the New Ships. Washington, Nov. 12.
