WILL BOLT BRYAN TO SUPPORT HITCHCOCK Nebraska Delegate at Large Explains Situation. tpenal it The Pun and Ntw Yoik llr.nu a Fremont, Neb.. April 23. Dan V. Stephens 01 Fremont, elected to the Pemocratlc National Convention as a delegate at large on the Bryan slate, will sipport Senator Hitchcock for President, as ir.stntcted by Nebraska Democrats, ho deilnted to-day. There lias never been any doubt about .Mr. Hitchcock getting the vote of the Nebraska delegation at ,San Fran . ico. I will support .Mr. Hitchcock." a 1 1 Mr. Stephens. But Mr. Stephens will resist the at tempt to commit the Democrats to a light wine and beer programme. He opposes Bryan's government ownership nf railways plank, and stands with Presi dent Wilson and Senator Hitchcock on the treaty of peace. 'I am opposed to any form of govern ment ownership of railways that has yet been pioposed," he said. sweat of tholr brows and with their brains shall not bo required to pay as heavy taxes as those who live In idle ness and draw Incomes from safe In vestments.'' "A distinction should be. made," said he, "bctweon earned and unearned In come," Ifo declared himself opposed to all tax free bonds. If after a two year period of private ownership the railroads failed to func tion properly, Sir. McAdoo said, he, would favor reopening the railroad question. He declared for a "fair trial" of tho new railroad law, hut 'admitted It "cannot sottlo tho railroad problem becauso It does not reach fundamentals," PROCTER SEES WOOD, SAYS HE'S CHAIRMAN Asserts Hitchcock Has No Of ficial Capacity. "You can say this that William C. Procter Is tho chairman of Gen. Wood's campaign committee, for the entire United States." That was the statement Col. Procter made In Chicago last night, .after a long conference with Gon. Wood on the controversy as to whether ho or Frank St. Hitchcock ehall have supreme control of tho practical sldo of the cam paign. "Sir. Hitchcock bears no official ca pacity on the committee." Col. Procter added. "That Is how matters stand now. .lust what might happen In the near future none of ufl knows." It appears, thorefore, that the con troversy stlH stands without decision. Another despatch from Chicago stated (hat Sir. llllt-hrnpl; li:nl !ien . vnnf Ail tlterrt SO tilflt I hflt h stlti mlfhf l,n rnr. sented, but that he failed to arrive. Sir. Hitchcock could not be found 'either In Ills headquarttirs or his residence here tasi night. Although Gen. AVood refused to ills cuss the reported lack of Harmony among his campaign directors, n. tele gram to the Wood Kastern headquarters from tho Chicago headquarters yester day quoted Gen. Wood as saying tha story of a split Is without foundation and the fabrication of enemies of his candidacy. He was quoted also as say ing he Is pleased with the manner In which his campaign has been conducted so far.

TAXES Higher Ratio in the Future Because of Prohibition. Special to Thk 81! N inii Nsh- -ok HtittD Washington, April 25. It cost the Government only about one-half of one per cent, to collect all of Its Internal revenue taxes during the fiscal year 1319. Figures on the cost of collection of the war. Income and other taxes were made public by the Internal Revenue Bureau to-day In answer to teports that a great proportion of the taxes collected were expended in the collection costs. The actual rntlo. it is Kt.-.tr.i u r.i cents on each $ 100. The ratio will In crease this year, However, with prohi bition enforcement greatly enlarging the non-revenue producing activities of the Revenue Bureau. "Of the total collections for the fiscal year 1919," the statement says, "J2.C00, 7S3.902.T0 were in Income and excess profits taxes. The raUo of 53 cents ex penditure for evety $100 collected in cludes not only the cost of collection of this sum, but of all other revenue Wl of which, such as the child labor tax, Is not expected to be commensurate with the cost of administration as well as the cost of operation of the many non revenue functions the bureau is called upon to perform. The actual ratio of cost in the collection of the Income tax Is less therefore than 33 cents for every $100 collected, which relates to the cost of the bureau's entire operations for the year." ALABAMA INCOME ' TAX BILL INVALID Special Legislature Must Pro vide for Revenues. Special to Tns Sc.s" a.vd Nsit TfonK Iliuum. Mobile. Ala., April 23. The Income tax bill of Alabama has been declared unconstitutional by the State Supreme Court, according to a message from Slontgomery. The law was declared un constitutional by Circuit Judge B. Sf. Sillier of the Fourth Alabama Circuit Court, and It Is now upheld. It means that thousands of dollars will bo taken fiom the State Treasury. According to rumor, Gov, Kllby will have to call an extra session of the Ala. bar.ia Legislature to provide new ma chinery for collecting revenue. son are the only contenders for the prcf erence. Wood has a complete slato of delegates pledged to hltn. Senator Johnson has candidates for two delegates at large and has asked his supporters to vote for Senators Walter K. Ldgo nnd Joseph S. Freyllnghuysen who are running for the "Big Four' Wjtbout pledge. Johnson has candidates for district delegates In all except thtee St the twelve Congress districts. The two bis Issues In tho New Jersey campaign have been prohibition and con trol of the Republican State organiza tlon. The AVood managers, who have been playing him as an advocate of pro hibition and the Eighteenth Amendment in New Jersey have represented him as having most liberal Ideas on the subject. On the other hand there has been cir culated the Information that Senator Johnson voted for the Eighteenth Amendment and nljo for the Volstead enforcement act. Tho Wood managers say they have not been responsible for this, hut they were not nt all displeased at the effect It has had In a State which is strongly wet, as shown by the election of a wet Governor, a Demo crat, although the Republicans carried the State Legislature. The Wood managers at the Hotel Im perial say they will rapture the entire twenty-eight delegates In New Jersey. The Johnson people say that their can didate will surely carry the Presidential preference vote, as he did In Stlchlgan. Nebraska nnd North Dakota, and Hint this will cany with It the votes of the delegation In Chicago. Advices from Washington are that the Wood inopaganda has not gone well, and that Senator Poindexter Is certain of an indorsement at the State conven tion. At headquarters heie It was stnted last night that they would be satisfied with second choice position. They are confident enough at the Wood headquarters to claim the eight votes of Idaho, with the gentle proviso that "if Borah wins all the delegates" Wood will be second choice. On Wednesday Arkansas elects thir teen delegates at a Slate convention in Little Rock. There are no claims there for Wood. Advices there are that the delegation may be split, olevctf for Gov. lowden and two for Wood. CARRANZA TO CRUSH UPRISING IN SONORA Prepares to Send Armies Against Rebellious State From All Sides. WAB OFFICE IS CONFIDENT Gens. Obrcgon and Hill, Who Aro in Flight, Likely to Face Drumhead Court-Martial. Rll I lie Aitoctated Frett. Mexico CiTT, April 23. The develop ments of the last two weeks resulting from the Sonora revolutionary activities show that the central uovernmeni is im-- nnrlno in nnpimln the rebellious State with a steel ring, meanwhile crushing sporadic outbreaks in other pans oi me republic with a strongihand, hA seditious activities In various sections of tho renubllo since th nnrtliarn fifnfn lirnlin With the Lur- ranza Administration, together with the ri,iia nt dm tinvprnmpnt's military 1 ' . .1 v.. irn ta measures, nas ueen irsueu " -- pnrtment officials, two weeKS nuer mo min i,.nt Vifliu-n th OhresonlstaH and II, n i,1mlnltrri!lnn nml Ih cited BH Droof that the Government's oltlclal statement characterizing the Sonora outoreaic as Mnl, tnxit la u.ull fnlimtarl. Thelotfc list of professions of adhesion to tiie central Government rrom virtually every State Executive and military i.fi ,11 ..vpflnt ihnsH wh.i have openly joined the Sonora revolutionists would seem to Indicate that the repunite as a whole Is solidly Mipporting the present Government. Asldo from the Sonora Stale govern nunt, only two State executives havo repudiated the present administration, these being Gtn. Bnrlque Estrada. In the State of Zacatecas, and rasqual Ortiz Rublo, In the State of Sllchoacan. Both of these executives, however, have failed to attract any great following and are being pursued by loyal forces. IXrndn Cited for Treason. The State Legislature In Zacatecas has repudiated the attitude of Estrada and cited him for treason, while the Sllchoacan Legislature has unseated Ortiz Rublo and named Piimo Serratila Slercadm as his successor. The situation In Slnalo.v Is considered non-relative to the rebellious activities, as Gen. Ramon Itttrbe, Governor of that State, has ptotested his loyalty and la using what forces are available to check the Increasing Incursions of tho Sonora troops Into Slnaloa until teenforcementi tan reach hltn. The present whereabouts of (Jen. Al varo Obregon, the former War .Minister, who Is slated for the Presidency of Mexico by the Sonorn tebels, and Gen. Benjamin Hill, his campaign leader. Is uncertain, the official war office state ments fulling to locate them. The genetal belief Is tint both rebel leaders, who left Mexico City two wreks ago upon receipt of reliable advices that Soiioih had lebelled, fled toward the Pacific coast by way of Mlchoacan. Ap paiently 'Gen. Hill remained behind Obregon, for the purpose of leunltlng If possible tli9 Fcatteied bands of Zapatis tas In Slorelas. Nothing Is feared ftom this scheme, as the Mexico City garil fon numbers about ten thousand men. The supposition that Obregon Is mov ing toward Sonora bv way of Sllchoacan and Guerrero is given support by 1 lie fact that the Government or Orltz Rublo left Jlorella, rasital of the State of Sllchoacan, nt tho head of a small force about tho time Obregon arrived In that dls'rlct. The crushing defeat Inflicted April 21 by Gen. Francisco Murgula's. troops unon tlm rilinltlnus forces headed by Qcn. Arnult Gomtz, which attacked tho Tuxpam oil centre, eliminated mo oniy danger to the central Government out side of Sonora, according to the War Department. The arrival at Mexico city of Gen. Slaycotte, expected within a few days, It Is believed will clear up the nltuatlon In tho State of Guerrero, where press reports assert Slaycotte's troops followed Col. Francisco Flgueroo, Governor of that State. In rebellion. Will JVot Delay Klectlon. While the political situation has been driven entirely Into tho background by tho Sonora revolt the attitude assumed by tho Presidential candidates has lie'n the subject of congratulatory edltotlals by tho newspapers supporting the Gov ernment. Both Ignaclo Uonlllas, who Is n native of Sonora, and Gen. Pablo Gonzales havo denounced Sonora's ac tion and reiterated their loyalty to the constituted Government. Neither has an nounced his withdrawal fiom tho Presi dential race, but unconfirmed reports after tho Oonzales-Cananza conference wero to the effect that Gonzales was abotit to accept tho portfolio of War Minister or tike tho field at the head of a Httong nrmy. Apparently there will bo no postpone ment of tho Presidential elections, set for July. Tho Coahulla State Legisla ture recently proposed to the Vera Cruz LeKlslatuio that tho elections bo post poned, but the latter has failed to take nnr, i .iiiu r-nhreni. Secretary of tho Treasury, haw been quoted as stating that n postponement at tins time is in advisable. What tly Government's plans are for tho nilllliuy conquest of Sonora have not been divulged, lien. .Manuel Dleguez at present heads the forces destined for Sonora under the direct orders of Presi dent Carranza, who has been commander-in-chief of the .Mexican forces for more than a year. Gen. Cnndldo Agullar, who has been recalled Into ac tive service, Is at Vera Cruz organizing a strong column. While the belief Is that the Govern ment will bring about the subjugation of Sonora by forces advancing from CftsaB Gi amies, Chihuahua, another ntmy by way of Slnaloa, and by sen. by way of Guayamas, uncertainly prevails regarding the possibility of an nttack fiom the noi tli.
