M. Zimmermann, whoso retirement closely followed tho , exposure of his plot to involve the I United Slates in war with Mexico and Japan in tho event that this country showed any inclination to join the entente allies. .Dr. von Kuhlmann's conduct of the foreign office appeared to be more than usually unsuccessful until ffune 25 last, when he appeared before jtho retchstng to discuss the political aspects~of tho situation facing Germany. During his address lie said: "In view of the magnitude of this war nnd the number of powers, including those from overseas, that are engaged, its end can hardly be expected through purely military decisions alone and without recourso to diplomatic negotiations." The statement, whioh flatly contra- djpted statements by the Gorman emperor, who but a short time before had referred to peace being won by the "strong German sword," was received With consternation In the reichstag nnd with sharp criticism by tho country^ It was dater reported that Dr. von Kuhlmann's words had been approved by Gen, Ludendorff, the German commander on the western front. This brought to notico rumors of friction between Ludendorff nnd the German crown prince and his coterie1 Who comprised the radical #an-Ger- 1 man elements in official circles. Soon after the address in the reichstag, it became common knowledge that Dr. ivon Kuhlmann's retirement from office would be forthcoming. Some reports were to the effect that his address was intended to Inform the German people that their armies could not win the 1 war and was delivered with, thc cognizance of tho emperor, who, when he saw what a storm had been stirred up, resolved to make Von ^Kuhlmann the scapegoat. Premier Talks About Greatly Needed Reforms—Hon. Garriepy Says Reorganize Banking System. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) VICTORIA, July 9.—Premier Oliver formally dechired the national convention of the Union of Canadian Municipalities open this afternoon with an address, in which ho sponsored civic home rule, the establishment of a provincial municipal department and other legislative reforms in tho interests of municipal welfare. The premier favored the enactment of skeleton legislation by the leglslaV tures,'leaving tho details to be worked out through the Intelligence of the municipalities themselves. In that way, special circumstances nnd local conditions could be met In the only common sense way. Surprised at Premier. Mayor Hawkins of Halifax, who was chairman of the afternoon session, said the broodminded view taken by Premier Oliver was a revelation to him. In his own province he looked upon tho provincial authorities more tn the light of arch enemies than brothers. The home rule idea for civic government after nil was the only sane way. Legislation by the provincial authorities toward the internment of all alien enemies and'their utilization In industry at regulated rates of pay was strongly urged by Reeve Bridgeman, president of the Union of British Columbia Municipal ites. In a vigorous speech, in which ho pointed the way to civic reform in several somewhat novel directions, Hon. Wilfrid Garriepy, K. C, minister of municipal nffalrs in Alberta, told the delegates the time had como when people must finance their own civic affairs .when the banking system must be reorganized, when authority at Ottawa must be decentralized and the status of the civic employed improved. Municipality—Home. He declared that soon municipalities will not be merely a collecton of property owners, but a collection of homes, families and people living in the same community entitled to the same rights regardless of their land holdings. The war's effects on the cities of eastern and western Canada were dealt with in a discussion, in which those taking part were Mayor Coatello of Calgary, Mayor Hawkins of Halifax, Aid Owen of Vancouver, W. D. Light- fall of Montreal, Mayor Cater of Brandon and C. J. Yorath, city manager of Saskatoon. NEW WAR BONDS WILL BE FREE OF TAXATION 1 OTTAWA, July 9.—Tho government, after caroful consideration, has decided that the bonds of the next Victory loan, will, like those of ull previous issues, be free of all Dominion taxation. With such a largo body of existing securities tax-free' it was felt that it would jeopardize the success of the new loan to make It subject to income taxation and attempt to float It at the samo Interest rate as the last issue. If made subject to super-tax, those desiring such securities would purchase on tho market, tax-free securities in preference to subscribing to the new loan. CONVOY SYSTEM TURNS OUT TO BE SATISFACTORY (By Dally News Leased Wire.) LONDON, July 9,—Speaking In thc house today, Sir Leo Money, parlla mentary secretary to tho ministry of shipping, said the percentage of ships lost while homeward bound to the United Kingdom since Jan. 1, 191S, was rather more than 1 per cent. The losses of food supplies for the same period were less than 1.4 per cent. Thc result of the convoy system, ■ Sir Leo said, continued to improve.. Since January, 1917, when tho system was put Into effect, 42,000,000 gross tons had been convoyed to British and French ports, with a loss up to June 29 of 1.29 per cent„. This included loss by the disposal of convoys through bad weather. AUSTRIA REFUSES TO ACCEPT HUN LEADER (By Dally News Leased Wire.)

GERMAN HAS RESPECT FOR CZECHOSLOVAKS Tells Cologne Gazette that Gen. Semenoff's Cossacks Are a Contemptible Body (By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, July 9.—Statements attributed by the Cologne Gazette to a German, described -as holding for many years a distinguished position In the Far East, who lately traveled from China to Germany across Siberia, are printed in the Times. The German is very contemptuous of Gen, Semenoff's Cossacks, but writes with great respect of the Czecho-SlovokB, who, ho says, are not destined for the French front, but are to bo used exclusively against the Russian Bolshovlki. I ..The, German says he saw 10,000 Czecho -Slovaks on the Amur railway and Was to'ld'there were nearly 50,000 Ceecho-'Slovaks altogether in Siberia. He describes the 10,000 whom he met ad splendid material, well fed and well clothed, but not armed. No arms, at any event, were visible, even among the officers. He was informed the whole force was commanded by a French general. < The subsequent occupation of Omisk shotted,, says the 'writer; that more Czecho-Slovaks had arrived since he passed through Siberia. Regarding the Bolshevlki, tho German says; "Their power, which does not seem now quite firm, even in Moscow and Petrograd, does not exist at all in Siberia. The smallest Soviet does what he likes thero. Everybody's first concern is himself. Soviet soldiers occupy the houses of tho bourgeois population and seize their property. Hotels are also searched and plundered. Nobody has a minute's security. These rascals are criminals who escaped from prison or were released by tho Bolshevlki. They are armed to tho teeth, "The authors of tho terrible butcheries on the Amur Were these criminals. There was absolutely no battle. Tho people were simply murdered. Some rich merchants shot themselves to escape beastlal tortures. Educated classes yearn for the day when the Germans will come to oreato order. A counter revolution is being systematically prepared. Lehlne and Trotsky will disappear." Vladivostok Quiet. LONDON, July 9.—Life in Vlndivo- (Contlnued oh Pago Two.)

Repulsed Day Attack. ROME, July 9—Austrian troops yesterday again attacked the Italian positions 'at Corona, between the Fren- zella valley and the Brenta and again met with a repulse, according to to day's war office statement, There was artillery fighting and activity by the Italian patrols at various points along thc remainder of the front. (By Associated Press.) While the fighting on tho Macedonian and Albanian frontiers must remain a side issue to the great battles that aro expected momentarily in Franco and possibly northern Italy, the progress of the French and Italians along thc Albanian coast brings that theatre of the war into consideration. Rapid strides have been made since tho French and Italian assault was launched north of Avlona; July 0, Strong Austrian positions have been stormed and it appears that the allies have been successful In turning the Austrian right wing. An official statement from Rome says thc Ttollan cavalry has gained the Austrian rear and destroyed bridges across the Scminl river, which parallels tho Voyusa, where the attack was being made. This marks an advance of about 15 miles. FACES SENTENCE Col. Moore Must Produce 12 Men in Court, But They Are Miles Away. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) CALGARY, July 9.—Col. P. A.

HOARD TRAINS TO Hungry Austrian Men and Women Score Government As They Receive Crusts (By Dally News Leased Wire.) PARIS, July 9.^-Tho food shortage in Austria is growing more acute, according to Herbert Mayer of Chicago, Secretary to Charles J. Voplcka, American ambassador to Rumania. Mr. Mayer has just returned from ■lassy by the way of Austria and Switzerland. At Vienna tho train on which he traveled stopped in the railroad yard and a crowd of hungry men and women employed in the yard scrambled aboard and begged for food. All looked emaciated and under-fed. When tho * passengers threw out scraps of food, tbo Austrians made a rush and devoured It ravenously. They declared that the government was giving them only enough food to keep them from actual starvation. Two Americans in 175 Mr. Mayer and Dr. Beckenrldgc Bain of Washington were the only Americans among the 175 passengers from Rumania. Tho others ^Included the Italian and Serbian ministers and Rumanian officers and civilians. The .lourney from .lassy to Berne occupied Tour days. No hostility was shown by Austrians or Germans and there were no demonstratiohs. Tiie train was in charge of a German colonel and the passengers were permitted to leave the cars at various stations, where always an Austrian armed guard was present. No attempt was made to draw the blinds in the passenger cars or curtail the customary privileges of travelers. 20,000 Yanks in Francel The Americans were most impressed by the almost complete absence of workers in the fields and on the farms in Austria. At a station between Orsova and Budapest a mob of about 100 Austrian soldiers and civilians attempted to board the train and were put off only at the point of a pistol. Somo of them were endeavoring to reach home; others were trying to reach points where food was more Plentiful. A German major at one station told the Americans that the Germans were not taking America's entry into the war seriously because they knew that no more than 20,000 American soldiers were in France. "The Untied Slates Is not sufficiently interested in the war lo send over a greater number," he said. ENEMY PLANES ATTACK U-BOAT Six Killed When German Airmen Strike at Sub—German Statement Exaggerated. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, July 9.—A British submarine was slightly damaged and one officer and five men were killed when tho craft was attacked by German seaplanes off the east coast of England on July (i, according to an admiralty statement issued today. Tho text reads: "A British submarine was attacked off tho east coast of England July G by five enemy seaplanes, which dropped dombs and directed machine gun fire at the boat, Ono officer and fivo men wore killed. Tho submarine, slightly damaged, was towed back to her harbor." German Statement. Amsterdam:, July 9.—Two British submarines were badly damaged by bombs and machine gunfire during an encounter with Gorman seaplanes on Saturday, off the mouth of the Thames, according to an official statement issued at Berlin. Tho statement follows: "Two squadrons of seaplanes severely damaged two British submarines, C-35 and C-51, by bombs nnd machine gun fire, off the mouth of tho Thames, Saturday afternoon, Enemy destroyers endeavored to tow In the submarines, but tho C-35 was in a sinking condition." ' TO I RUSSIA Peaceful Invasion Is Being Figured * Out, It Is Believed—Armed Guards Going. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) WASHINGTON; July 9,-Entente governments through their embassies in Washington arc now fully advised of the views of the Washington ad- minstratlon as to the best means of carrying out President Wilson's pledge to stand behind Russia. It Is understood that a project is taking shape which it Is hoped will counteract Gorman Influence and lead the people to rehabilitate themselves without exciting distrust of tho unselfish motives which are behind it. No Official Report. While any official statement of the administration's policy still is withhold, there is reason to believe that tho proposal to send American business men to Russia to carry material aid to tho people with aimed guards to insure the safety of tho personnel and supplies from German aggression Is forming the basis of the negotiations now proceeding with unusual rapidity between Washington and the entente capitals. Only it has assumed a new phase through injection of tho Idea to make the commission and armed guards international ln composition, thus tending to disarm any suspicion of tbe people of Russia that their country is to bo exploited in the Interests of a single power. U. S. Disfavors Army Plan. This measure is far short of thc original desires of the entente governments which frankly favored the despatch into .Siberia and perhaps into European Russia, through thc Archangel of Kola route, of a joint military expedition. But It is believed in the absence of full American approval of this plan, thc entente powers have been brought to the point where they are willing at least to sanction thc experiment of peaceful penetration and that negotiations are now in progress to arrange the details of this enterprise. At any rate, the fact developed today that some action is Imminent, Possibilities of sending relief to Russia by the northern route, using Kola and Archangel as bases, was strengthened today by reports reaching tho States. From Swedish press sources it was stated that tho population of Mourmansk coast had repudiated the Bolshevlki government and declared their adherence to the entente forces which now arc stationed on the coast. Intimations also have come from Finland that strong opposition to German control is developing there and that it is quite improbable that any military force can be raised in the country to attack the entente and American marines and bluejackets now at Kola and vicinity. It was assumed that in view of its importance and the urgency expressed by tho entente powers, thc Russian program was discussed at the regular cabinet meeting today, but there was no official announcement on thc subject.

"Wliile waiting for the German High command to show its hand In beginning a new assault, tlie allied forces on tho western front are giving the enemy little opportunity to perfect his arrangements for launching his expected, but still deferred, attack. Gain Ground From the Lys sector, on the north, to the Champagne front, in eastern France, there have been sudden thrusts at the German lines, at least one of which lias gained considerable ground. This particular blow was struck by the French, west of the Oise and north of the Malz river, on tho battlefield where the Germans were, stupped short in their attempts to hew their way through to Compiegne early in June. i, . |^| ■ French Successful Tho French advanced along the Compiegne road, noi th of Antheuil, and occupied the Logo and Port farms on both sides of the highway. The ground they have taken is Important from a defensive standpoint and cuts down the area in which tlie Germans must maneuver in the part of the battle area. There seems to have been some spirited fighting on tlie British front along La Bassee canal and north of the Somme, in the Picardy sector. Berlin announces that the British were repulsed in frequently repeated attacks In the former region and adds that the British attacks north of the Somme broke down, The French attack at Antheuil is merely mentioned in the official German statement, which says, however, that attacks in the Villers-C'otterets and Chateau- Thierry sectors wero repulsed by the Germans.

OTTAWA, July 9.—The whole situation in respect to the validity of the order-in-council cancelling certain exemptions from military service will be bofore the supremo court within a few days. Sir Charles Fltzpatrick, chief justice, was In conference today with the minister of justice. Afterward, it was announced that the court would sit as soon as the argument could be prepared. Different Cases Whether the judgment rendered by Judge Bruneau in Montreal, as well as that of the Alberta court of appeal in the Lewis case, will be submitted lo the supreme court, has not yet been determined. The two cases' are' not identical, it is pointed out. The Alberta case called into question the validity of the April order-in-council under which military service exemptions of men of 20, 21 and 22 years of age were cancelled and men of 19 years of age 'were added to Class 1. The Montreal case turned primarily un the habeas corpus provision of a subsequent order-In-councll and tho man whoso release from* military service was sought by way of habeas corpus was released before tho judgment was rendered. It was found that he was an alien. Alberta Case Important The main question for determination, it is regarded here, is raised in the Alberta case; and, in government circles, there ia every confidence expressed that the constitutionality of the April order-in-council will be maintained. Determination to hold men in military service, despite habeas "corpus, raises a new issue. It is argued that in so retaining a man, the military officer might be placed in an awkward situation. On the ono hand, if he declines to release the man'he is liable to proceedings for contempt ol court; on tho other, he has either to hold the man or decline to obey the orders of superior military authority. What will be done In tho event of such 'conflict between civil and military authority, will bo decided when the oases arise. Confidence is expressed that' any such situation will be avoided, PAGE TWO THE DAILY NEWS WEDNESDAY, JULY 10,1918. ~] Leading Hotels of the West Whsrs ths Traveling Public May Obtain Superior Accommodation.

Would Be Possible With Million Men, Says General Manager of Chinese Company (By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, July 9.—"Wilh 1,000,000 men, of whom only 300,000 need be allied troops, it would be possible to reconstruct the eastern front on a line running through thc Ural mountains," is a statement made by Lieut.-Gen. Horvath, vice-president and general manager of the Chinese Eastern railway, according to a despatch to the Mail from Harbin, under date of June 29. Gen. Horvath, who, as chief director of the Chinese Eastern railway in 1904, was responsible for transporting Russian armies over the Siberian railway to the battlefields of the Russo-Japanese war, continued: Tenth, Fools—Rest, Knaves "Intervention is unavoidable. - The actions of the German and Austrian prisoners are undoubtedly a part of the German scheme to possess the whole of Russia, especially western Siberia, with lis important resources, they, acting In collusion with the Bolshevlki, "one-tenth of whom arc fools and the rest knaves. "Japan must supply the bulk of the allied troops for intervention. Tlie other allies must supply money, locomotives and the material, the latter presumably being the part expected of the Aihericans, Harbin and Vladivostok would be thc two bases. Any American .or even British divisions, supposing such would be sent, could come to 'Vladivostok. The people o£ Russia are longing for order. Allied intervention would be voiced everywhere. It is quite possible that if a decision is delayed much longer, the Russians, tired of Bolshevik! excesses, may, in despair, appeal to the Germans to save thein from anarchy." Gen. Horvath calculates a formidable army could be placed in tlie Urals in four months and, as order is restored, Siberian volunteers and other Russians would flock tn join the colors until the requisite 1,000,000 Is reached. He believes it quite possible for an allied army to live in the country. "If a less ambitious allied expedition, only as far as Irkutsk, is proposed," he said, "it would yield valuable resources and have an immense moral effect on the Russian people, encouraging them to reconstitute a military force themselves."

According to a Now York estimate tbe Granby Consolidated Mining, Smelting & Power company produced approximately 44,000,000 pounds of copper during the fiscal year ending June 80. This is an increase over the 41,- 818,568 pounds produced during the previous 12 months. Owing'to the increased cost of labor and supplies it is expected that there will be a decrease in the earnings for tho fiscal year ending June 30 as compared with the previous year. Thc average cost a pound has been estimated by a New York broker at HVj cents at Anyox and 21 cents at Grand Forks on a market price of 23 cents. In Spokane tho figures arc accepted at nearer 10 and 19 cents respectively. The estimate of the broker suggest earnings of $4,320,000 or $28 a share, while the Spokane figures give $5,- 220,000 qt* ?34 a share. A Boston authority has estimated a reduction in the earnings for the last fiscal year as compared with tbe previous one when the earnings wero $36 a sharo. These estimates are based on the belief that 8,000,000 pounds of copper were produced at tho Grand Forks smelter and 30,000,000 pounds at Anyox for tho fiscal year ending June 30. Additions to the company's mineral holdings are expected to offset tho depreciation of its properties. A reduction in the cost of operating is expected to result from tlio installation of two converters and a coking plant at Anyox and the opening up of a coal property on Vancouver island. Thc Increase from 23 Ms to 20 cents in the price of copper is expected to improve prospects for the coming fiscal year although most of the Increase will be absorbed by tho Increased freight rates across tho Iwuhdury, -.

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK ' Reports which have reached Canada with regard to the inter-allled conferences In London on the after-care of disabled soldiers and sailors, show that Canada was found to be in ad- vance of other countries in thc systematic way in which it has gone about the vitally important matter of caring for invalided soldiers and fitting them for making a livelihood. Much space was given to the conferences by the London papers, which commented in laudatory terms upon the manner in which Canada is dealing with the matter. One of the London newspapers remarked that "the debates must have seemed sometimes to the Canadian delegates to have been dovoted to frst principles and to problems already solved in Canada." It is very gratifying that this country should have done as well and the fact that It is now in the lead in this all-important work should act as an inspiration to the government, to official and to the public at large to see that Canada holds this lead and continues to be the country in which the invalided, men are better looked after than in any other. minion have been due to camp fires and lighted cigarettes and matches. No camp fire ought to be built anywhere except on rocks or gravel and should be entirely extinguished. Carelessness in forests In Canada does what the kaiser would gladly pay his bombers and propagandists to accomplish. THE WASTEFUL CREDIT SYSTEM "While war conditions have brought about a considerable reduction in thc credit business, the giving and obtaining of credit is still one of tbe causes of forcing upward the cost of living. Credit inevitably means some bad debts, it increases the cost of business alsoSjbn account of tho bookkeeping, letter-writing, consumption of postage stamps and stationery which is involved. A business firm finds that costs arising out of tho giving of credit arc part of the expense of doing business and has to allow for them. In other words, if a merchant, without giving credit could do business on a 15 per cent basis and the giving of credit costs him 5 per cent, he has to charge the public 20 per cent. Thus the cost of living is forced, upward by the-credit system. And the longer the credits the greater the expense of collection and the greater thc loss In bad debts. Another item of expense caused by too much credit rests on the fact that If a merchant has to give credit ho has to obtain credit from thc wholesaler1''and manufacturer. For that credit he has to pay, either In thc form of lost cash discounts or in interest on overdue amounts. If he carries his customers and pays the wholesaler promptly he has to borrow money from his bank and pay thc bank for it. There is no way of escaping the cost of the credit system. During tho war credit has been tightened greatly by wholesalers and manufacturers. They are moro and more forcing the merchant to pay for his goods promptly. He can't do that without borrowing money unless his customers pay him promptly. Tightening credit sometimes is a little .unpleasant, but the more it is tightened and the nearer the country gets to a cash basis the less will be the waste of money and effort which Is inevitably associated with the credit system. The new Victory loan is to be free ; of Income tax. That is a wise decision. A citizen should not be taxed on the money he loans to the government for the purpose of winning tho war. "Whether "Von Kuhlmann is to resign or not makes no real difference. The kaiser and his junker supporters are still thc rulers of Germany and remain so until their source of strength, the army, has been crushed in battle. The Buffalo News reports that the pro-German whisperers are telling the negioes over there that tho black go'diers are being assigned the most dangerous jobs at tho front. Cana- dlnr.s used to be toid that the Canadians wero put into tho holiest spots by the British. The pro-German is the same lying anitnal wherever found. The Belleville Intelligencer remarks that wood alcohol is dangerous to trifle with. It is a deadly poison, as many in Ontario have learned to their cost who sought to use it straight or diluted as a beverage. People who are foolish enough to experiment with dangerous compounds to induce intoxication aro flirting with death in most horrible form. Special precautions should be taken to make it difficult for anyone to obtain dangerous liquids of any kind. The volume of tourist traffic from the United States this year has been considerably lessened by misleading press despatches appearing in American and Canadian papers regarding the Canadian Registration act. It was unwarrantably stated that visitors to Canada from the United States would be compelled to register at a postoffice before they could secure accommodation at a hotel, that passports were absolutely necessary, and more recently the absurd rumor was circulated that women from the United States would not be allowed to return home. This latter ridiculous report Is specifically denied by W. D. Scott, superintendent of immigration, who officially designated it as "absolutely without any foundation in fact." Senator Gideon Robertson, a member of the Dominion cabinet, and chairman of the registration board, is equally positive in his denials of the other mischievous reports. The actual facts are, according to the official statement of tho registration board, that the registration act applies only to people permanently resident in Canada and does not affect even remotely anyone living in the United States; that no registration at a post- oifice is necessary, and that no passports are required. The possession ot papers showing the holders to Lte American citizens is all that is necessary to cross into Canada, COLD STORAGE. She—My first husband was a banker, my second a lawyer, my .third .

TOLD IN RHYME, GERMANY SAVING HER FOREST WEALTH FOR POST-BELLUM TRADE WAR i . During the past four years, according to official German estimates, the fire losses ln the public forests have been exceedingly small. Prior to 1914, the total fire destruction on over a million acres of German forests was below $1000 a year. Other German forest areas suffered even less harm, j In ' Canada, however, the country's commercial strength has been steadily weakened by devastating forest fires that devour each year several million dollars worth of property and many human lives. Most of these forest, fires were started by carelessness that borders on criminality. One of the least condonable causes Is the unextinguished camp fire, left by camping parties. In lffl and 1918 a full dozen JffJthe worst forest fires in the Do- THB ANXIOUS DEAD (By Col. John McCrea, author of "In Flanders' Fields,") O guns, fall silent till the dead men hear Above their heads thc legions pressing on! (These fought their fight in time of bitter fear And died, nol knowing how thc day had gone,) O flashing muzzles, pause and let them see The coming dawn that streaks the sky afar! Then let your mighty chorus witness be To them, and Caesar, that we still make war. Tell them, O guns, that we have heard their call; That we have sworn and will not turn aside; That we will onward till we win or fall; That we will keep the faith for which they died. Bid them be patient, and some day, anon, They shall feel the earth enwrapt In silence deep- Shall greet in wonderment the quiet dawn, And In content may turn them to their Bleep, \ AT PUBLIC SCHOOL List of Pupils Who Passed Examin.. tions and Those Awarded Honor Rolls.

JOSEPH DOWLING (By Dally News Leased Wire.) LONDON, July 5.—The court- martial of Corp. Joseph Dowllng, who was seized by the British authorities on the Irish const after landing in a German collapsible boat, was concluded today. The verdict will be promulgated later. Corp. Dowllng did not give any evidence in his own behalf or call any witnesses for his defense. Ills attorney, however, argued that the inducement the corporal offered to his mon to join the Irish brigade while in Germany was to get out of Germany and to help his fellow countrymen to fight against Germany. There was no evidence, the attorney said, that the prisoner endeavored to get into communication with anyone after he landed in Ireland. Dowiing's army record, he pointed out, showed that he had served for 11 years and had never been convicted of any offense. The raising of a. Slav legion is lhe chief feature of thc new $12,000,000,000 United States army bill.
