Tho Income Tax.
WASHINGTON. April THAT the
proposed income tax viii place part
Of the burden for the support Of the
government on the shoulders OF those
best able to bear that burden is the
position taken today By the democra-
tic members Of the house ways and
means committee. And pergons who
are now tax dodgers would be forced
TO meet their obligations under the
new plan, the committee asserted.
"Basing the federal In .one entire
~ upon customs and internal revenue
duties" said the committee, In ex-
planning this provision OF the bill, sig
a system OF taxation which inevitably
throws the burden OF supporting the
government upon the shoulders OF the
consumers. 1t CORRESPONDENCE exempts
the men OF larger income, whose con.
sumption OF the ordinary necessities
a far less aggregate degree than Is
that OF the smaller income earners,
who e1pend the greater proportion OF
their resources for the ordinary
necessities of life.
Owing to defects in personal prop
erty taxation the larger incomes OF
| the United States have for many
years been able to escape with less
than their general share OF the bur-
den OF taxation. This inequality will
be In part overcome by the plan now
proposed
No wage Garner who receives less
than $4,000 year Is subject to the
/ tax. Above $4,000 and UP to 100000,
/ the new tax viii be about one per
/ cent; between $4,000 ana $50 900 1t
1 will be two percent, between $50, 900
and 100000 It will be three percent
and above 100000, four percent. To
reach the tax dodger who resides
abroad the new law makes all Ameri-
can citizens, no matter where resid-
ing, subject TO the tax. II defines in
minute detail and at great length Just
what shall be considered income,
leaving no apparent loop! ole for argu-
(. ment on this line.
The committee changed It's mind
about making the tax apply to Presi.
: dent Wilson, although all OF his sue.
cesscrs will have to pay The e1emp-
tion clause affects the present pres

THE ELkS FINE HOSTS.

The Elks have come and gone They have enjoyed themselves as they never enjoyed themselves bfore at a conven- t'on in Arkansas. Pine Bluff proved itself a fine host. The Elks of this city ought to feel proud of the manner in which they cared for the visitors and the smoothness in which their we'll planned arrangements were car ried out, in every detail. The visitors were loud in their praise of the re- ception accorded them here. They appreciate the hospitality of their To- cal brothers, as was evidenced by the repeated compliments heard from them yesterday and last night
 The Elks of Arkansas are a great bunch of men. They are not only living up to the principles of their or der, but they are building up cities ard making them better ill every way. Their order is one of which 9the people of Arkansas should feel proud No better. fellows live than the Ark ansas Elks. They are gentlemen and as entertainers they have proven themselves experts.

in the Hotel Jefferson, declaring that the reception and convention here this week was the most hospital and sue cessful ever given them.
 The Elks enjoyed a real old fash tened country barbecue at Forest Park at noon and it was the biggest affair of it's kind ever given in this state Fifteen hundred pounds of barbecued beef, mutton and pork was served, with the usual liquid refreshments. The Elks ate until they could eat no more and then they amused them selves with an athletic program on the Park field The Hot Springs, Wynne and First Regiment bands also furnished a program of music, con- testing for the prizes offered for the best musical organizations. A base ball game closed the afternoon s pro- gram. Fully three thousand people attended the open air festivities.

NEW COACHES PROVE BENEFIT
College Conference Football Teams
Show Improvement In came-Three
Striking Successes.

The old adage of the cleaning prop
critics Of new broom has been strik-
ingly illustrated thus far in the 1918
Football season. With four of the nine
conference colleges guided by new
coaches and one OF the two big out
siders In the same position, there
have been three striking successes
and two ordinary showings. Illinois,
Purdue and Notre Dame all have
strengthened their coaching depart
ments, while Northwestern and Ohio
State do not seem to have suffered in
the slightest from the changes made.
At Wisconsin, Bill Juneau, who may
be ciassed as a newcomer. 10 as cue
cessful as the men at any OF the
schools mentioned.
When the season opened Robert Q.
Zuppke at illinois, Andy Smith at
Purdue, Dennis Grady at Northwest
ern, Jack Wilce at Ohio and Jesse
Harper at Notre Dame were the cen
ter of attraction. Each had his ad-
mirers and his critics, but all have
succeeded beyond the hopes even OF
their greatest friends.
Even Grady, although his team has
been beaten In nearly every contest
1t has played, can be classed as sue
cessful, for Northwestern has learned
more football than in several years.
The inability OF his men to carry out
his instructions does not detraot from
the credit due to the Purple tutor.
Perhaps the most striking success
OF the year is the work done by
Happy" Andy Smith at Purdue.
Smith succeeded in raising second
rate team into the top ranks and
made the Boilermakers contenders for
the conference championship for the
first time In years. It has been direct
" due to Smiths work, for the mate->
rial at his disposal was no better than
last season, when the Lafayette team
was an easy victim for any high class
machine that happened to oppose 1t.

Golf, Of course, is regarded as a
rich mans game" not only because
Its playing calls for wide space. cost

but also by reason of the fact that
considerable leisure is required for
It's practice, says the Cleveland
Leader. Even 30, golf may be played
on much more economical basis than
that used as an average in the English
estimate.
The probability is that any golfer,
