WAW15 WAR ur.vwuu,v ni END WITHOUT DELA\ / Will Ask a Bill Requiring Newspa 1 . pers to Label Every Line * of British Propaganda They Print. . ^ ' < Chic: *o, Nov. 6.?Mayor Willir^r Hale Thoaip&fti of .CJifcago,-the -nev political boss of Illinois, is laying hi* plans to make his voice heard in tht 1 novt fintiirrM?. yws?^?'vw?. Congressman W. A. Michaelson is going to take some oi the mayor'.' planks to Washington -tfith him Congressmen Mason, SprouJ, Mad den, Mann and Britten are goin? tc support him. ^ * The mayo* Has sqme definite ideas about what he wants congress to do. One i)f the things he wants is an amendment to the income tax, exempting all incomes of less thar $5,000. He also has-an international plat , . to be advanced He wants British propaganda stopped in this country He will prohably $sk some one to in troduce a bill requiring ail newspapers to label every-line of Britisl propaganda they print. jC He also wants thfe-war brought t< an end at once. Here is one of hii i planks: "We appeal to congress to amenc without delay a^ resolution declaring this country at peace with the world to repeal immediately all war tinu legislation and to demand of Presi dent Wilson that our soldiers now ir Europe be brought home forthwith.' Here is another plank: "We advocate the amendment ol the constitution so that congres; shall have the power to conscripl a gifts to or inheritances -by any individual in excess of $1,000,000." This is the plank that made Gov ernor Lowden and others gasp wher Thompson sought to have it adoptee at a state convention last spring. The mayor expects help from Senator oBrah, Johnson- and La Follette. Thompson's friends say Gov ernor Lowden has been permanent^ shelved. Lowden .fought Thompsor for control of. th^^tate. Senatoi McCormick ami Sen&fcor Sherman anc ' Chairman Will Hayp all sided witl Lowden, but the mayor beat then , It is probable that Mayor Thomp son will seek a place in the senate 4 when McCormick's term erqpires. Id the voters remain in the same frame of mind in which they voted las1 Tuesday, he will get it. Thompson is the first man wh( ever ruled Chicago and the state al the same time. He has more po litical power today than any mar who ever held an office in Illinois with the possible exception of Lin coin. <$? <S> 3 <$> <? ?

YANKS BAD ACTORS SAYS GERMAN OFFICIAL : I 5'American Troops Charged With I Drunkenness, Immorality and Destruction of Property. Eerlin, Nov. 6.?Johannes Bell, | former minister of transport, adj1 dressing the Reichstag: today, charged j American' troops in t"he Rhine zone 1 1 1?JlTld I \VTtn uruiuveuucaa, uuiuv^...., i destruction of property. He described the situation as "unr! bearable" and demanded that the j government appeal to Washington or notify the American representative j here,, saying he believed the' Amerij can people wre not aware of cundi1 tions in th army of occupation, and that^they would not tolerate them if they knew of them. , Bernard Dernberg, former chancel: lor, told the Reichstag that Germany , should immediately- demand revision ' of the treaty of Versailles for "economic, humane and just reasons." He suggested that the league of nations ought to undertake such revision. s j The treaty, Dernberg declared, was . | not based on the "fourteen points," fas promised, and that Germany thus I was justified in demanding its altera| tion. Further, he said, alteration >, was justified under the clause of the > treaty itself permitting revisions. > Dernberg disagreed with the an> nounced policy of Foreign Minister > Simonds, that the treaty should be . fulfilled to the utmost to show its ! impossibility?saying that "it already ? has been shown o be impossible of ; fulfillment, hence it is unnecessary ! that Germany should be driven any 3 farther in this direction." He alsoj j protested against the clause requiring j Germany to admit she was wholly responsible for the war. - * ' * . v ' I 1 EDUCATIONAL RALLY DAY L' AT ST.
