Count Hertling. has revived rumors in Ger many that he is to succeed von Beth mann-Hollweg as imperial chancellor, according to dispatches received via Holland. From Zurich, it was reported that Hollweg already had tendered his resignation, but there was no confirma tion of such a rumor.

For weeks it has been apparent that senti ment against Hollweg among Ills polit ical opponents was slowly crystallizing. Heretofore the chancellor has succeed ed in weathering all opposition because of the inability of the opposing politi cal parties to get together on any con certed plan of forcing his retirement. Today German newspapers indicated a fresh attack on Hollweg likely to af ford ground for such concert of action. In dissatisfaction over repeated post ponemeiu of the chancellor’s much ad vertised speech outlining Germany’s war aims.

Raising Pigs Quickest Way to Increase Food . WASHINGTON. May 9.—The United I States government is urging Increased ( raising of pigs. The meat supply of the | country must be increased, and the quickest way to do it is by raising hogs. | Concerning the production of pork, the j department of agriculture has the fol-| lowing to say: "The meat supply of the country can be increased more quickly by the ‘hog route’ than by any other. The country’s’ need to augment its supply is great, but prevailing high prices alone should be sufficient inducement to farmers to, raise more hogs. The prospect of success never was brighter. The high prices ruling in all markets show that the de mand for pork is in excess of the sup ply” For easy money the hog is-unequalled, according to the bureau of animal indus try of the department. The bureau points out that the hog. while requiring less care than the average farm animal, obligingly eats all of the farm’s by products. Kitchen refuse, skim milk. I scraps from the table may all be turn-i ed Into palatable pork in short order. One point brought out is that increas ed production of pork would lowtfr the ice of hee>f. That It may become the fad for each child to raise a pig. was pointed out following the adoption of such a scheme, with modifications, in Ohio. FLORIDA IS SHIPPING POTATOES TO ENGLAND! JACKSONVILLE.

The oratorical battle began when Ma jority Leader Kitchin, in charge of the measure, presented it with a pled for "all Americans to do their bit to finance the war." Mr. Kitchen declared: “This bill must pass so our children's children will not have to pay for the war of this genera tion.” This must be a war. he_ said. * S ECT I (LN AL TA XAT IO N. Northern men, Democrats and Repub licans. claim tiie southern members In control in the house have ’’burriened the country above the Mason-Dixon line with war taxes,” but have let the south off lightly. They attacked particular ly what they call "the sectional system of taxation pursued in the bill.” Five billion dollars, Mr. Kitchin said, must be spent by the United States in the next year. "Billions of dollars of bonds have been issued that will he a burden on our children and our children’s children unless we employ taxes,” he said. "The hortise, when this bill comes to a vote, must take this present burden on our selves, who declared tiie war. and show the necessary sacrificial spirit. • "No American cansay, ‘I refuse*to pay my part.’ 1 hope no man here will com plain this bill taxes his state and his district. , "There are few provisions in this bill I would vote for in ordinary times. But we must raise every dollar on it. “Our expenses in the nex\ year already are estimated at s3,Bo<t,ooo.otut. I be lieve they will be $.'>,000,000,000. “A man who wanted to pay all this taxes by bonds would be a coward. I think we ought to pay half the ex penses by taxation." “We can't finish this debate before some time Saturday.” Minority Leader Mann said, when Mr. Kitchin tried to limit debate to two»days, todai and to morrow. KITCHIN EXPLAINS BILL. Mr. Kitchin did not press his attempt. He began immediately to explain the bill. Representative Fordnoy, ranking Re publican member of tne ways and means committee, announced he will support, the bill as it is. along with Mr. Kitchin. Mr. Kitchin said be did not believe the business men and manufacturers are slackers. •'They’ll stand by this bill, he said. “If we refused to tax all the indus tries that have said they would be ruin ed by this bill, we coulfi not raise SIOO.- 000,” he continued. “But they will come across.” He said the "kicks’' against the bill had surprised him. The total, he said, had surpassed a hundred times com plaints against any former bill. The house was in excellent humor as Mr. Kitchin, using a handkerchief free ly in the hot chamber, proceeded. He brought laughter at the. expense of a congressman, who, he said, had de clared a certain soft drink is an ab solute necessity. Again a moment later there was hearty laughter and a cran ing of necks toward the Montana dele gation’s seats when Mr. Kitchin said solemnly that powder puffs were among some of the luxuries to be heavily taxed. MISS RANKIN BLUSHES. Mis? Rankin bore the brunt of laugh ter blushingly. Mr. Kitchin insisted there had been no politics In framing the bill. Mr. Kitchin—a low tariff Democrat said unless the tariff provision is adopted, shoes and other necessities will have to be taxed. “T just closed my eyes and support ed it,” he said, amid Republican cheers. Mr. Kitchin stressed "the hardships that must be borne by all the countrv. “If Great Britain's income and ex cels taxes were enforced here,” lie said. "$5,500,000,000 could be raised by them." “And this may be necessary." he add ed. "we must finance the war for our allies. By comparison the bill is ridic ulously small. But if every man pays his tax. we may get enough." Mr. Kitchin concluded his speech at 2 o’clock. Immediately a bombardmen* of questions started. The 5 per cent taxes on new automobiles and new tires was subjected to attack by many. Tne shipping bill still is in embi .vo despite the pressing demands lor ships. No one can hazard a guess how long it will take to get a food control bill through congress. There are as many propositions on this important question as there are members in the two legis lative bodies. And most of them dif fer widely as to the best remedy. Meantime debate was resumed today on the Gregory esrdonngc bill—the mails and censorship sections still be ing up fur disposition. .'n attempt was made to secure a. vote on the measure INCOMES OF SI,OOO AND OIEB WILL BE TAXED Single Men Drawing SI,OOO, Married Men $2,000 Will Be Taxed WASHINGTON. May 8. —Incomes of all Americans earning above SI,OOO for single men and $2,000 for married men are to do their bit towards raising sl,- 800,000,000 of tajees included in a rev enue bill so be reported tonight or to morrow by the house ways and committee. Incomes of $500,000 or more are to pay a new tax of 33 per cent it is un derstood—a total tax including normal and surtaxes, of from 45 to 50 per celit. Under the old tax law all incomes under $3,000 were exempt. Single men paid per cent on $3,000 or more. Mar ried men paid 2 per cent on $4,000 or more. Under lite new law, men subject to this who earned less than $5,000 will pay an additional 2 per cent, a to tal of 4 per cent. Single men earning from SI,OOO to the old taxing minimum of $3,000 will pay a new tax of* 2 per cent as will married men earning from $2,000 to the old taxing minimum of $4,000.

Spannell's effort, to secure a new trial, following his conviction for the mur der of Major M. C. Butler, failed hen this afternoon. Spannell's attorneys an nounced they will appeal. Bond was se. at $5,000, which Spannell furnished. -—by limiting debate—late this week or the first of next. By unanimous consent the senate to day agreed to limit further debate on the espionage bill to one hour for each senator until 11 o’clock tomorrow and thereafter to ten minutes on the bill or five minutes on amendments for any senator. No time was fixed for a vote, but it probably w’ill come by Fri day night. With three slashes by the senate to day. Postmaster General Burleson was shorn of the autocratic mail-handling powers that would have been given him under the Gregory espionage bill. Two sections were cut out of the mails section o” the bill by amendment of Senator Hardwick, Georgia. Other portions were so modified as to limit Mr. Burleson’s power to stop ping mailing of matter urging treason, insurrection or forcible opposition to any laws of the United States. Senator Overman, in charge of the hill for the administration, accepted all the amendments. This was taken -is an indication that the’ tremendous ’ op position to Russianixing the war gov ernment of this country has caused President Wilson to withdraw from n firm position behind the Gregory bill.
