May 9 —The United States has arranged to make a loan of 975.(100.0(10 to Belgian, which will be ex pended by the Belgian relief commis sion. The loan will he advanced at the rate of 512.500.000 a month, of which 5“.- 000.000 will be available for relief In Belgium and 55.000.000 for relief In northern France. By making the loan the United States will take the burden of the relief in Belgium and France from the shoulders taerGrißt— of Great Britain and France and con duct it from thia country so far as possible. WASHINGTON. May 9.—The billion dollars Uncle Sam will spend at once for ships to combat the submarine men ace will go for purchase of second hand vessels and construction of new ones. This was decided on today at a two hours conference between the president an dthlrty members of both house of congress and officials of the government ship board. The congress delegation represented all factions of both parties. All were agreed, after what the president told them, that the United States should have ships quickly and in enormous tonnage. The plan tentatively decided on Is to attach the appropriation, or 5500,000,003 of It. on the urgency deficiency bill, mak ing that sum available at once. The re-, mainder will be provided when wanted later. President Wilson was told by leaders of both parlies. • The shipping board is understood to* have made a complete survey of all ships for sale in the United States. If owners of these ships show any hesi tancy In selling to the government should the government want the ships, means will be found to bring such own ers to terms. The means may be through the bill now pending, which would give the president power to commandeer all shipping. To insure prompt and efficient hand ling of all supplies in carrying rut the government shipbuilding program, the shipping board today created the office of director of traffic of the board and the emergency fleet corporation. Major General George W. Goethals. : generat manager of the corporation, and William Denman, chairman of the board. | announced the appointment of David L. Ewing, of St. Ixiuis. to the new office. Mr. Ewing formerly was assistant general freight agent of the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad. He will take up his duties in Washington Im mediately. AGE LIMIT 21 TO Si. House and senate conferees on the se lective service army bill are rapidly ad justing their differences. It was learned after a long session today, and a report; on the measure may be expected by to-1 morrow. As the measure will be agreed upon. I according to best information avail- j able, the Roosevelt division amendment; will be eliminated: the age for service will be fixed at from twenty-one to thirty-one years and the army pfohibi-| tion amendment will remain, but modi fied so as to attach a penalty only to the sale of liquor to men in uniform. As the measure stood originally the penalty would apply to "selling, fur nishing or giving away" liquor to a soldier in uniform. Senator Chamberlain declared later there still was a possibility that the conferees would be able to iron out all their differences. * “We will meet again this afternoon, and if we don’t agree on the measure as a whole we ll meet again tomorrow. If we can’t get together by the end of' those conferences we’ll have to give it up.” Senator Chamberlain said. The house ways and means committee today reported out the 51.800.000.000 revenue bill. It immediately was intro duced by Chairman Kitchin and will go before the house probably tomorrow. TAX ON TEA AND COFFEE. The committee today added a new provision for a one cent a pound tax on all coffee, two cents a pound on all tea. which is in the United States tomorrow, excepting that held by individuals for their own use or to that held by retail ers. The rich man must pay heavily, but the burden is proportionately distrib uted all down the line by the mam moth war revenue bill. The measure is not sufficient to carry out the presi dent’s idea of a ’’pay as you go” war. but it will meet the two-billlon-dollar short term certificates of indebtedness in less than eighteen months. The new tax will take one-third of incomes of half a million dollars and runs up to where it takes practically half of incomes over two million dol lars. Incomes. inheritances and excess profits constitute the framework of the bill. The rich man is hit hard whether his wealth be In incomes from invest ments. estates left by his ancestors or profits above 8 per cent on the capital invested in business. ALL ARE AFFECTED. The bill, however, goes from the big things to little things, affecting prac tically every man. woman and child in America. The levy strikes everything from pills, cosmetics and chewing gum to yachts, automobiles and stock certifi cates. There is a tax on railroad and Pull man tickets, on freight bills, on trans portation of oil by pipe line and steam ship tickets. A 5 per cent tax is lev ied on local telephone calls, with a graduated tax on long distance mes sages The rates on incomes, inheritances and excess profits are “in addition to” , existing rates. As the ways and means committee met today to finish the revenue bill it was stated on good anthority the com mittee added to the hill 1 cent a pound tax on coffee and 2 cents a pound on INCOMES HIT. The decided to assess an additional S 8 1-3 per cent on all in comes taxed during the calendar year 1018. If a man paid a 530 tax he must pay 510 more on his last year’s in come. Majority leader Kitchin, also chair man of the wgys and means committee, announced on the floor when he sub mitted a committee report on the bill he will call It up for action tomorrow 1 when the house meets at 11 o’clock. Mr. Kitchin said he thought there would be about two days of general de bate. Tariff duties, income and inheritance taxes, increased postage, and increased taxes on man) commodities will be the means whereby the sinews are raised A 10 per rent raise is tacked on all tar iffs; the normal Income tax is doubled. THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKT.Y JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, MAY 11, 1017 VICTOR CMISTROM. NOTED FLYER. DIES IN LONE FILL Instructor and Student Aviator Meet Death When Machine Collapses at 3,500 Feet NEWPORT NEWS. Va., May 9 Vic tor t'arlstrom. aviator instructor at the Atlantic coast aeronautical station here, and one of the foremost flyers in Ameri ca. and Cary B. Epes, of Newport News, a atudent flyer, were ti>ot*x>tly killed this afternoon at 12:80 o’clocx, when the airplane in which they were flying col lapsed at an altitude of about 3,500 feet and fell like a plummet to the earth. The machine was smashed to splinters and the bodies of the victims were hor ribly mutilated beyond recognition. The fall was witnessed by hundreds of per sons in various sections of the city and qauaed a near-panic among the children at one of the public schools, who were watching the flyers during their noon recess Carlstrom was giving Epes his first flight. They left the ground and rapidly rose to about 3,500 feet. They wer.e fly ing along smoothly when persons watch ing the machine saw it suddenly crum ple up and plunge downward. As the crippled machine fell observers saw a portion of the plane sailing after it. This proved to be the right wing, which evidently gave away and caused the re mainder of the plane to collapse. Carlstrom reached the zenith of his fame when he flew from Chicago to New York for the New York Times several months ago. Previous to that time he had flown from Newport News to New York without a stop, setting a record for cross-country flying. Carlstrom also held the American record for altitude with pilot and one passenger, having as cended to a height of 16,5*0 feet here a year ago. Earlier in his flying days Carlstrom flew from Toronto to Buffalo. He had won numerous other laurels in the avia tion world and had been awarded a medal by the Aero Club of America. A few weeks ago Carlstrom received an appointment as first lieutenant in the aviation reserve corps of the United States army. He was considered one of the best Instructors in the country and had a large class of army students at the local school. Epes resigned his position as teller in a local bank last Saturday and had arranged to take the aviation course as a civilian until his application had been acted upon by the army authorities. He recently defrayed his own expenses to Washington to undergo the examination and anticipated an apointment at an early date. Workman Killed in Explosion at Georgetown (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) KNOXVILLE. Tenn.. May 8. —Henry H. Parker, the workman who was kill ed in the explosion of the munitions plant at Kingsport yesterday morning, is a native of Georgia. He has one brother. Walter H. Parker, at Tasso, Ga.

House Approves Pay for Men in Officers’ Reserve WASHINGTON, May 8. —The house today passed the conference report on the 8270..000.000 army appropriation bill, providing that men in officers’ reserve camps shall receive SIOO a month. The report dealt with the regular army bill for the fiscaJ year that begins July 1. which failed in the last congress. while the surtaxes are raised and the exemptions lowered WALE OF TAXATION. For single persons, the income lax starts at $1,000; for married persons $2,000 The surtax is graduated, run ning up to 33 per cent on incomes above $500,000. The normal income tax will be 4 per cent on individual and 6 per cent on cor porations. Postage stamps will cost 3 cents and postcards 2, while magazines and news papers will pay heavier rates. The bill would lay a 16 per cent tax on excess profits; and a tax up to 15 per cent on inheritances. New taxes include levies on insurance policies, telephones, electric power, oil and pipe lines. An amusement tax of 1 per cent per each 10 cents pt* fraction of 10—ticket cost is imposed, thus hitting all movie shows and theaters. Liquor, tobacco and soft drinks will bear a far heavier burden than at pres ent. SENATE DEBATE ON. Debate on the administration espion age bill continued in the senate today with the export embargo section as adopted Monday unchanged, despite ef forts to modify it yesterday after the question had been discussed in execu tive session. Before the bill is finally voted on. however, further efforts will be made to modify the section by Senator LaFol lette, who has an amendment pending, and possibly others. • The senate late yesterday voted dawn Senator Cummins’ amendment providing that the embargo should not operate in violation of any treaty with a neutral as it did his motion that the whole ques tion be debated in open senate.

Paris has previously announced the capture of 29,000 Germans by the French troops since April 16, thus making a total of more than 50,000 prisoners taken by the French and British since April 1. The chancellor said the British casual ties in Field Marsnai Haig’s recent of fensive had been from 5(» to 75 per cent, less than those incurred ny British troops along the earlier in the war. The only otljer operations in the war which have resulted in such huge cap tures of men were those in which von Hindenburg was engaged in the Mazurin swamps early in the war. Chancellor Law moved a vote of credit for 500,000.000 pounds. $2,400,000,- 000 approximately. In moving this vote he said that the alarming feature of the figures was that they represented a total (Taily expenditure of 7,450,000 pounds—s34,s6o,ooo. Between April 1 and May 5, said th? chancellor, there was a daily advance of 2.000,000 pounds to the allies and domin ions.

GENTLEMEN: I have often said I would never recommend medi cine of any kind. I believe that the doctor’s place. However, after the hardest political campaign of my life, without a chance for a vacation. I had been start ing to court every morning with that horrible tired feeling one cannot describe. I was advised to try Nuxated Iron. As a pioneer in the food and drug legislation, I was at first loath to try an advertised remedy, but after advising with my medical friends. I gave it a test. The results have been so beneficial In my own case, I made up my mind to let my friends know about It. and you are at liberty to publish this statement if you so desire. I am now 65 years of age and I feel that a remedy which will build up the strength and increase the power of endurance of one at my age. should be known to the world. Yours very truly, • Senator Mason’s statement in regard to Nuxated iron was shown to several physicians who were requested to give their opinions thereon. Dr. Howard James, late of The Man hattan State Hospital of New York and formerly Assistant Physician Brooklyn State Hospital, said: “Senator Mason is to be commended on handing out this statement on Nuxated Iron for public print. There are thousands of men and women who need a strength and blood builder. but do not know what to take. There is nothing like organic iron—Nux ated Iron —to give increased strength, snap, vigor and staying power. It en riches the blood, brings roses to the cheeks of women and is an unfailing source of renewed vitality, endurance and power for men who burn up too rapidly their nervous energy in the strenuous strain of the great business competition oi the day.” Former Health Commissioner Wm. R. Kerr, of the City of Chicago, says: “I have taken Nuxated Iron myself and experienced its health-giving and strength-building effect, and in the in terest of public welfare I feel it my duty to make known the results of its use. I am well past my three score years, and want to say that I believe my own great physical activity is largely due today to iny personal use of Nuxated Iron. From my own ex perience with Nuxated Iron I feel it is such a valuable remedy that it ought to be used in every hospital and prescribed by every physician in this country.” Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who has studied abroad in great European medical institutions, said: "Senator Mason is right. As T have said a hun dred times over, organic iron is the greatest of all strength builders. “Not long ago a man came to ine who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examina- QPpP IA I TO PHYSIC IANS* Doctor, when you wish to prescribe a true tonic M 1 L» Vlfl Li 11/ llilululflllu. anf j blood builder, one that puts the real “stay there” strength and youthful vigor into the blood and nerves, try Nuxated Iron. If you have been using the old forms of metallic iron, without success; if you have had patients complain of discolored teeth, upset stomachs, hardened, tied-up secretions, etc., from the use of metallic iron, again we suggest, try Nuxated Irion. Nuxated Iron will be furnished by any druggist on an absolute guarantee of success or money re funded. It is highly endorsed by such physicians as Dr. Schuyler C. .Jaques. Visiting Surgeon of St. Eliza beth's Hospital, New York City; br. Howard James, late of The Manhattan S»tate Hospital of New York and formerly Assistant Physician Brooklyn State Hospital; Dr. A. J.

Doctors Stand Amazed dt Power of Bon-Opto to Make Weak Eyes Strong—-According to Dr. Lewis Guaranteed to Strengthen Eyesight 50% In One Week’s Time in Many Instances A Free Prescription Yon Can Have FlUed and Use at Home Philadelphia. Pa. —Victims of eye strain and other eye weaknesses, ana those who wear glasses, will be glad to know thaJ according to Dr. Lewis there is real hope and help for them. Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their eyes restored by this remarka ble prescription, and many who once wore glasses say they have thrown Them away. One man says, after using it: I was almost blind. Could not see to read at all. Now I can read everything with out my glasses and my eyes do hurt any more. At night they would pain dreadfully.’ Now they feel fine all the time. It was like a miracle to me.” A ladv who used it says: “The atmosphere seemed hazy with or without glasses, but after using this prescription for la davs everything seems clear. I can read even fine print without glasses.” An other who used it says: “I was bothered with eve strain caused by overworked, tired eyes, which induced fierce head aches. I have worn glasses for several years both for distance and work, and without them I could not read my own name on an envelope or the typewriting on the machine before me. I can do both now and have discarded my long distance glasses altogether. I can count the fluttering leaves on the trees across the street now, which for several years have looked like a dim green blur to me. I cannot express my joy at what it has done for me.” It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard them in a rea sonable time and multitudes more will Ou hi *■ ■ - - Uk ' * 'i ■fKq "'Rk '• ” ■ UB tion for life insurance. I \was aston ished to find him with the blood pres sure of a boy of twenty and as full of vigor, vim and vitality as a young man: in fact, a young man he really was. notwithstanding his age. The secret, he said, was taking organic iron—Nuxated Iron had filled him with renewed life. At thirty he was in bad health; at forty six he was care-worn and nearly all in. Now, at fifty, after taking Nuxated Iron, a miracle of vitality and his face beaming with the buoyancy of youth. Iron is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change your food into living tissue. Without it, no matter how much or what you eat, your food merely passes through you without doing you any good. You don’t get the strength out of it. and as a consequence you be come weak, pale and sickly looking, just like a plant trying to grow in a soil de ficient in iron.” Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques. Visiting Sur geon of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital. New York City, said: “I have never before given out any medical information or advice for publication, as I ordinarily do not believe in it.
