VITAL WASHINGTON NEWS.
Special to this Paper, BY c. H. Ia,

Washington, March 1O.-Instead of
taxing sugar nearly two cents a
pound, place a tax on wealth!
The Democratic House OF Repuesen-
tatives has announced this as a part
OF their program to bring about a re-
duction in the cost Of living.
Now get ready for the old cry:
You can't do it; it's mconstitution-
all" Whenever 1t Is proposed to tax
wealth instead Of poverty, wealth rails
es the question of cOnsitutionality, ac-
companied by the charge of radical
ISM" The income tax is not radical.
Every first class nation of the earth
except this one raises a part of its
revenue to meet the expenses of gov
eminent by taxing incomes, among
such nations being Great Britain. ia
pan, France. Denmark, Germany, Hob
land, Austria, Switzerland, Australia.
New Zealand and many more.
Under our present fiscal policy, the
expense of maintaining the army and
navy, building public buildings and
running the government, is met by
taxing the things the people must
have in order to live. Practically all
revenue is derived through the Gus
toms houses and internal revenue off
ces, with the exception of a compar-
atively small amount derived from
the corporation tax, which was recent
, ly passed as a cheating substitute for
an income tax. While the hats, coats
and shirts Of the masses are taxed
almost II per cent under this fiscal
system, Rockefeller, Morgan, and the
other millionaires are not asked by
the federal government to pay any
|, tax whatever on their swollen frtme
Thus, poor man with a family ac-
tually pays more toward running the
government than does a millionaire
bachelor.
The Democratic plan is to place SUI
/ gar on the free list. This will repeal
an annual burden of $1O7, 900, 900 in
taxation from the breakfast table,
, now borne by the American people.
Then the present corporation tax will
he extended to include individuals and
cOpartnerships having an annual in
come of $4,000 or more. The excess
: of income over $1,000 will be taxed l
per cent, bringing into the treasury
between s5O,OOO,OOO and 100000, 900 a
YEAR, which win more than cover the
$4,000, 900 now derived annually from
the sugar tariff. The price of sugar
to the consumer, it is estimated, will
then be reduced about l IL cents a

to. the legalized confiscatiOn by some,
of the earnings of others. If they
actually did not believe in the right
of private property they would be too
much in agreement with Mr.. Taft for
him to quarrel with them. Mr.. Taft
does not believe, for instance, that
the man who spends honestly earned
money for imported goods has a
property right in them. He is a
strong advocate of confiscation
through a high protective tariff of a
large part of such property. Those
whom he terms ''confiscatiOn gentle
men" want this confiscation stopped.
Mr.. Taft favorS confiscation of the
savings of amy man who attempS to
provide a home for his family. He
favOrS perpetuatiOn of the legalized
power whereby land Spectators may
confiScate more or less of such a
mans money by preventing him from
getting possession of a site until he
pays one Of their number what ever
he may ask for the privilege. Then he
favWs confiscation by the state
through taxation of personal property
and Improvements of another share o
the savings that the home builder in
vest in his house and household goods
This, too, is confiscatiOn that "cOnfis-
cation gentlemen" want to stop.

Cincinnati have brought into exis-

want to stop him. Hence his wrath.
There are other kinds of confisca-
ton going on with Mr.. Taft's approx
al. Some OF it is to his personal pro-
fit as well. ALI this the "confiscation
gentlemen" want to stop.
1t Is evident that Mr.. Taft feels
nervous about the possibility of pub
lie attention being directed toward
his confiscation- That is why he tries
to divert discussion to the Irrelevant
question about the man who spends
all his money in drink" But his at
tempt to drag that antique ned her

shows that there is one true state
ent anyway in his editorial. It fol

like the model pictured. are quite &C.
clesiastical in effect. The fastening Is
always low and the revers are long and
picturesque. The coat illustrated is OF
deep prune-colored satin. the hat match
ing the coat in tone. A Stunnig satin coat
is of doube-faced satin. tan on one SIDE
and deep blue on the other The lines are
straight and the satin falls in loose Yet
well managed folds. Taffeta wraps are a
bit more pr.m and stiff than the soft
satin affairs, but they are particularly
smart. These coats are very simple and
usually the edge is finished all around
with q double puff of the taffeta, run on
cords. Blue and black and green and
black changeable taffeta are the favorites
for these summer wraps, though many
plain black coats in very smart style
are seen.
Among the freak features of the ad-
vancing season is the outstanding Rem
brandt feather, which perches over my
lady's little nose in the effect of a church
steeple at the front Of the edifice. These
Rembrandt feathers give a very alert
look to the face, but only the woman
who dresses smartly and well In other
respects should attempt the Rembrandt
feather on her hat. Another peculiar but
modish feather arrangement IS the
feather-arch over the hat crown. The two
plumeS are poised at either side OF the
crown near the back so that their tips
interlace and form an arch several inches
high. The woman who insists upon wear
ing a large hat in church should effect
this feather arch SO that the unfortunate
individual behind her may peep through
her hat even IL she cannot see over II.
An illustration of the feather-arch Is
shown in the white hat trimmed with
plumes and the now fashionable silk quill
ling. This hat accompanies suit Of
stone-gray mixture, and the white ostrich
boa, white gloves and white buckskin
boots with pearl buttons repeat the smart
white note of the hat. White accessories
with dark tailored suits are as popular as
are black touches on white and light
colored costumes. Sometimes to match
the white hat and feather boa, there Is a
feather muff-not intended to give
warmth, but adding a very attractive
touch to the costume.

seems surprising. in country
q where the love of flowers is almost
n universal and where florists reap
g rich haryests each season that so
little is made of the possibilities of
the window box. There is a certain
brownstone house on a cross street in
New York city-a house in a row of
houses as monotonously dreary and I'M
interesting as itself as far as architec-
ture is concerued-but one will walk
blocks out of ones way TO go by this
particular house because il is set apart
and idealized by blaze of lovely color
from the growing plants set in boxes In
every window of its four stories. The
charm and delight of such a housefront
in an otherwise dreary city street and
the instant response of pleasure in every
eye that suddenly beholds it should be a
lesson TO the househoIders along that
street.
The care Of few window boxes should
add very little to the general work of the
house, and the pleasure given, not only
t. the inmates of the house, but to all
passers-by, is out of all proportion to the
slight extra labor entailed. The sweet
ness of mignonette, heliotrope or lemon
verbena waited in through bedroom win
dows is inexpressibly refreshing and de-
lghtful, and the well kept flower boxes

For the Stout Woman.

TO have q. perfect fitting gown. one
must have a perfectly fitted under
skirt. The stout woman who desires to
avoid any surplus fullness about the
waist will wear the skirt with the elastic
fitted band and yoke. This yields to the
figure, and insures a perfect fit about the
hips. The messaline skirt is one of the
best to insure slim effect, and, Of course.
no woman with any pretensions to cor
rect dressing wears a stiffiy starched
skirt. When the white lingerie skirt is
worn with the foulard or a gown OF
sheer materials it needs only very lit
tie starch. just enough to give sufficient
body. Nothing is more disastrous to
the fit of a thin silk dress than stiffiy
starched skirt, which always shows the
line where the starched skirt ends, below
which the silk dress skirt hangs in a
most hopeless manner.
Many stout women dislike the shirt
waist because they cannot keep il smooth
in the back. This bagginess may be
obviated by cutting off the waist at the
belt line, putting on a belt of fine tape
and fastening it to the dress skirt, either
with hooks and eyes or with snap fasten-
ers. The waist Will then fit smoothly and
will give no extra fullness below the
waist line.

to have gotten away entirely from the
ideal of clinging classic lines. held up to
women so long. And to the average
figure the flounced and frilled taffeta
frock will be less trying than the severe
classical lines or the straight, pipestem
silhouette that most women have tried
patiently to follow afar off.
AS the night follows the day, so must
the slender waist follow the vogue OF the
belt, for belts girded about the classical
ly shapeless waists of the past winter
would be unspeakably clumsy in effect.
Already the high-ciass corsets-the indl-
vidual models built for an exclusive
trade-are being "nipped in bit, as the
corsetiere puts it, to give just sugges-
ton of slenderness at the waist line; but
this nipping in is done at the back, so
that the straight. girlish nip lines and
very low-busted effect in front are not
frock in belted effect hints at this slight
curving in of the waist line. This frock
is Paris model and is built of the new
chiffon mohair in khaki shade. The de-
sign, as the photograph shows, is aoml-
rably simple, a divided tunic falling in
points weighted with fringe at front and
back Of the narrow skirt and the bodice
being on the simplest lines, with
straight sleeve set into an armhole De-
meath wide pleats. The interesting fea-
of imitation ivory and the imitation
ivory belt buckle in Fra Angelica pat
tern This belt buckle is the most con-
spicuous feature Of the frock, and leaves
no doubt in the mind Of the beholder that
belts are again 1.-THE thing" The belt it
self is made of grosgrain ribbon matching
the mohair in shade and is broken at
the back by a fiat pump bow the width
of the belt, which is not set exactly at
the center back, but an inch or two

companied by champagne silk gloves en-

are of black satin.

| This vogue of one-sided effects Is an
other interesting style feature of the
season. Wonderfully graceful effects in
drapery are achieved by crossing one
fabric over the other in this one-sided
fashion, and usually the fabric used
underneath is lace of some sort, all-over
laces being tremendously fashionable just
now. A tea gown recently brought over
from Paris for spring trousseau show
ed this one-sided drapery in marked de-
gree. Over tunic of tucked chiffon
trailed a robe OF all-over val bordered
with Chantilly, the lace drapery leaving
half the tunic visible and winding down
the skirt to the knee, where it strayed
backward to form a bag train weighted
with a pearl tassel, while the chiAon
showed again in a narrow petticOat OF
frills. One hated to think of the beauti-
full pearl tassel being dragged over the
floor. as undoubtedly it must be- to give
the lace train the proper weight and
grace of line
This one sided effect is favored even
in tailoared garb, as evidenced in one of
today's illustrations. The larger figure in
the photograph of woman and child en-
promenade wears a suit Of dark blue
silk serge trimmed with satin of the
same color, one side Of the cutaway
jacket being of the satin, while the other
side Is Of silk serge w.th the usual seam
running from shoulder to waist. This
little suit, which is by Jeanne Lanvin, is
very modern and correct With its belted
cutaway coat, its Tapped skirt trimmed
with buttons and it's set-ln sleeve finished
with pleated frill. The frilled collar at
the neck is also new style and is made
Of fine linen with pleating Of tucked
white net at the edge. Another new note
of this costume is the fringed parasol
and the hat of draped taffeta with flowers
stiff1y and conventionally arranged is par
ticularly chic. With this blue afternoon
suit are worn street boots of patent
leather with buttoned cloth tops, for just
at present low pumps are not considered
quite en- regle with tailored walking Co.'S
tunes.
The little girl in this same illustrator
is dressed very smartly indeed, albeit
most simply. Her frock is of chiffon tat
feta in a pretty combination of gray and
rose pink, the sleeves being set into a
low armhole with white taffeta. A white
leather belt, white embroidered collar and
cuffs and white pearly buttons sewed on
with rose-colored floss complete the dis
tinction of this simple frock. The little
girl, though she is too big for the baby
ish short socks, is permitted the grace
full ankle-strap slippers; but these but
toned-strap slippers have a lift or two
of heel to protect the arch of the growing
foot.
Crystal buttons are used on nine-tenths
of the taffeta frocks for women, and these

TT may be that those who insist that
skirts are to remain as narrow as for
the past two or three seasons are
correct as to the foundation structure,
but it is indicated that the coming fash
ions will require more fabrics when real
spring has opened.
A new model gown seen recently was in
beige silk made with many narrow
founces from feet to waist, each f1ounce
edged with black velvet. Down the left
side the round line of every fiounce was
cut with a small mother-of-pearl buckle
fastening tiny velvet bow. The corsage
had fichu of creamy net, and an over
one Of beige silk, trimmed with fiounces
like those on the skirt, only little
narrower.
Charming, little party frocks are made
of old-time sprigged muslin in a rose
wreath pattern, and are worn with gener-
Gus folded saShes of ribbon or silk. In re-
cent showing of coming fashions there
was pale blue satin gown with triple
