to pay a loan except through contracting a still larger one. The budget, how ever, as finally approved shows large reductions from the departmental re- quests.
 For example, the ministry of war wanted s26S, 100000 and got $235, ,S00,- 900. The ministry of marine asked for s72, ,250,oo0 and received s44,050,o0 The request of the ministry communi cations for $S1o, ,45o,o was reduced to $2S5, o,000, and that of the ministry of the interior for s86, ,25o,o0o to s7s,- 100000
 These reductions were largely due to the activity of the duma, which has also sanctioned new sources of revenue. Among these are an income tax, a tax on mortgages, certain increases on real estate and on manufactured tobacco, 2 duty on cigarette papers and certain stamp taxes.
 Russia is as badly tax ridden as is Japan, though it's sources of revenue are vastly greater. The people, however, are comparatively quiescent under this increase of burdens because of the duma. They are coming to feel that they are really gaining a measure of representative government and check upon both reckless extravagance and wholesale thievery.
 A people is usually willing to pay even extreme taxes when reasonably as- sured of their honest expenditure. The
 notation of the new loan also made pos sible through the increase of foreign confidence because of the conservative, yet insistent and wise, control assumed by the duma, which in the language of the street has thus double made good"

WHERE THE EXPERTS DISAGREE


 The disagreement of experts over the harmfulness or harmlessness of benzoate of soda as food preservative illustrates one of the prime difficulties in the way of enforcing pure food law In order to give effect to that law, it has been found necessary to determine what pure food is; that is, to establish standards of purity, and to decide upon the health fulnes of various matters used by can ners and packers to color, preserve, or otherwise make their products market able and presentable. As to one of the most widely used food conservatives, the adverse judgment of the agricultur- al department chief chemist has now been discredited by a referee board of chemists, opposite conclusions having been reached by practically the same methods. The decision of the referee board does not reverse the attitude of the department relative to benzoate of soda, for that preservative has been used with the departments permission pending final determination of the question of healthfulness, nor does it necessarily terminate Dr. ,Wiley's use fulncss, though it must be admitted that if his other conclusions respecting the deleteriousness of food preservatives are thrown out of court ne might as well give way to more complaint of fcial. There are several preservatives in the same boat with benzoate of soda, and if the department is to permit their use Dr. Wiley's campaign for foods en- tirely free from substance possibly in iInical to health has resulted in failure.
 Where chemists and pathologists dis agree, it is impossible for the public to decide, and, itmight also be said, equal ly impossible for their official represen- tatives to determine. Whether benzoate of soda is healthful or not, everybody who uses canned goods is swallowing it, together with sulphur, coperas, and other drugs which are not dangerous in

small doses, and which the canners and packers assure us are absolutely in- dispensable if they are to maintain their trade. So far the department of agriculture has appeared to lend read fer ear to the practical representations of industrial interests than to the the oretical conclusions of its own experts. The fact demonstrates that the enforce ment of the pure food law, so far as it contains food preservatives, is yet in an experimental stage, and that the de. partment has still to work out some feasible regulations that can be put into effect without bringing down the whole food industry about the ears of the ad. ministration, with all sorts of influences, financial, political, and chemical, against any inhibition of the well-uigh univer- sal practice of employing artificial pre-. servatives in foods.
 A crisis has evidently been reached in the preservative question where fl will be necessary to decide between a rigorous and a more easy going policy. The possibility is there win be less starch in the board of food and drug inspection rulings in the future. Whether that will be better for the consumer of preserved foods, who can tell. since the experts are of opposite minds?
