IlCarryIne aix appropriation for prohibition enforcement which would repeal: the measure so far as thev action ofj the, house Is needed. This obviates the necessity of protracted hearings by cpjmmittees if enough votes can be mustered at any time to pass the rider. I Tihtnes of Money Market puring the closing days of the year thje question of most vital .importance to congress Is the present curtailment Jf credit and the tightness of the money market throughout the United states Plans for the recreation of the war finance, corporation have been per rejetea. The senate has adopted a res olution which, if passed by the house and signed by the President, .would have that effect. iMeans by which the farmers might dispose of the year's crop to foreign nations are also under consideration. Import embargoes on foodstuffs, of whicljj there Is a surplus In this coun try, have been proposed. Only one other j question of Importance Is occu pying the time of the congressional leaders. That is the formation of a tax ahd tariff program to be followed after the Inauguration of President-elect Harding. . Hearings will be held throughout January by the house ways and means committee and may run until March 4 The committee ; then will 'draft a bill which will be ready when the spe cial session of congress Is convened early in the Harding administration. Tnx Problems, i Plans of the ways and means com nuittee members for the Imposition of ttixes are varied. There seems to be a gjeneral opinion in favor of the suspen sion of. the excess profits taxes as the year closes. In the place of this form of taxation a "turnover" sales tax Is proposed. Much opposition Is heard against the sales tax. Another plan suggested by the house leaders is a tax on undivided profits of corporations. This is opposed by Representative Sfordney of Michigan, chairman of the ways; and means comittee. , Anoher year was; devoted to the ef forts of anti-packer members to pass legislation to regulate the packing in dustry. Such legislation will not be passed during the year. BERNHARDT IS AGAIN SCORING IN FOOTLIGHTS PARIS, Jan. 1. Though but a few weeks ago she was lying seriously illj In bed and her Illness was causing the greatest anxiety to her many friends and. relatives, Sarah Bernhardt, suffi ciently recovered, has again faced the footlights and scored one of her big gest ! successes when playing the part Of Daniel In the four-act drama of that name Btaged at her theatre, j While she only appeared In the sec ond and fourth acts, her vfery presence On the stage was enough' to cause the performance to be Interrupted for sev eral minutes at a, time. Hands and throats were sore after each perform ance with applauding the great trage dienne. At the fall of the curtain on the fourth act the stage was completely covered with flowers, and crowds wait fed outside to see the "divine Sarah" leave the theatre, when she was again loudly acclaimed. Her acting remains as it always was. In Daniel ahe had: no walking to do, for the. second act saw her seated in a big armchair and in the fourth she was lying in bed. Nevertheless, in view of the continual applause she unhesitat ingly walked forward to acknowledge the cheers of her admirers. She did not seem to suffer any Inconvenienceswith her artificial leg. j Her voice has not changed or weak ened. She still retains that wonder- ully emotional character, and many f i ; : ' : ; I ' ' - H ,l ; In. III. Ill I WAV A r r H L: V .lii;-i:.

The plot shows two brothers, one of them, Daniel, in love with the same girl. Daniel, though much depressed, ceases courting the girl in favor of his brother, who ultimately, marries the girl, Daniel, meanwhile in an attempt to forget takes to drugs, and drinking. After but a few months of married life the young woman finds she has lost her J affection for her husband and falls in Qve with a stranger. Correspondence is exchanged, and letters fall into the hands of Daniel's . brother, who franti cally threatens the life of his then un known' adversary. Daniel hears of the matter !and to shield the woman - he loved and to i guarantee her happiness in the future calls in. his brother : and tdjfls him that he is his wife's lover. The brother then leavesNand refuses to ever see his brotheragain or hear of him. . In the final act Daniel is shown in bed. The drugs and drinks have had their evil'' effect and he' is dying. In a long lament he calls for his brother, and as the , latter . crasps his brother's hand Daniel falls back dead. Sarah Bernhardt intends to return to the states next year to give a series of performances, visiting the British Isles on her way to fulfill her recently cancelled contracts: ALSATIAN REFUGEES IN THREE GERMAN STATES They Ar Very Bitter Against The French Government KARLSRUHE, Germany, Jan. 1.-- Ba den, "Wilrttemburg and Bavaria are overrun by refugees from Alsace and consequently the feeling ' against the French is more bitter here, perhaps. than in any other part of the old Ger-'to man empire. In the Karlsruhe area all the old prison, camps and many barracks are filled with families which were deported from Alsace, or ,lef t be cause they reiused to live under French rule. Several thousand refugees from Al sace are sheltered- in long wooden shacks which formerly housed I British prisoners in the main recreation park In the center of Karlsruhe. These for mer prisons have all been converted into residences by Alsatians who have draped the windows with lace curtains and given the wire-enclosed compound a homey appearance by the display of potted plants. The Alsatian refugees are bitter in their denunciation of the French. They tell tales of how the French expel fam ilies from Strasbourg and other cities on the statement of unfriendly neigh bors that the suspects have been prop agandizing for Germany and working against France. The Alsatians are especially indig nant because German has been abol ished from the schools of Alsace where they say a great majority of the pop ulation is German-speaking and will migrate rather than abandon its native language. Refugees from- Metz and other parts of Lorralneare less critical about the language question. They ad mit French was the predominant tongue fn Lorraine. Nearly all the refugees with whom the Associated Press correspondent talked were very sharp in their criti cism of the attitude of the old German government toward Alsace and Lor raine and frankly admitted the unyield ing policy of Germany toward the two districts afforded the French an excuse for their attitude toward the distinctly German population. SUSPECTS ARE ROUNDED UP IN CITY OF DUBLIN This Explains Much of the Mili tary Activity There DUBLIN, Jan. 1. A good deal of the military and police activity In Dublin in raiding all sorts of houses is ex plained by the fact that the govern ment has rounded into the city many of the suspected men. There were men in most districts of Ireland who were sought by the police. They were, In the Irish phrase, "on their keeping," and it is a tradition In Ireland that many man "on the run" from the government , is entitled to sanctuary. Many persons, even among Xhose who disapprove of outrages, share this feeling and would be willing to harbor s5i men without inquiry. The pressure of the police and mili tary throughout the provinces has been so close that no country district is safe) for the fugitives. Some of them have sought refiige in dugouts in the hills, and the risk of receiving them in a house and the terror of a visit from the Black and Tan's is so great that many of the" men suspected have been gradually hunted into Dublin. Here they are diligently , searched for Xl W JiJEMCfflg jrpfflps TyA i r : Holiday - day and night and few of them, it-Is j believed, ever spend two nights irtfn jilng in the same bed. " ? The hotels are regarded as safe than the homes of. sympathizers and hence the frequent invasion by ' the crown forces of even 'the .best hotels in which the ' ordinary visitor is., startled out of his sleep and with a revolver pointed at him is required to lie still till his identIty i8 satisfactorily establshed; Raids on private houses are repeated again and again after failure to find the wanted man, in the hope -that, he must turn up there sorr time, thinking the search" has been abandoned. It Is said that there are districts on north side of the city in which ' the people confidently expect theserraids and the names of the wanted rrien are subjects of well informed gossip in the whole neighborhood. , -.-:..
