a city far away from the possibility
of Berlin gayeties even in the day OF
the motor car.
An apparent period of truce was fol-
lowed by the two sensational incidents
of the preface to ''Germany in Arms -
and the Hauptmann play. The crown
prince frankly tried to make out MS
father TO be less German than the heir
to the throne.
A still more sensational affair fol-
lowed, the attempt of the crown prince
to sacrifice his only sister the WIN
some Duchess of Brunswick, on the al
tar of his ambitions. To render his
own tenure of the vast Prussian empire
moro secure, he would have prevented
her from being wed to husband whom
she truly loved and who truly loved
her, although unwilling to yield in hon"
or to a Hobenzollern. Openly the prince
tried TO force his father to prevent the
marriage, unless the Duke Of Bruins.

Kaiser Wilhelm upholds the theory
of the divine right of things to
Justify his present lordship, His son
would use the doctrine to Justify the
| graspiug Of all the lands which the
German arms can subdue.
Pretending TO adore his fatherland,
the young prince would enter wars sure
TO create widows and orphans by the
hundred thousand. And for what7 He
would say to give Germany an outlet
for her teeming population. But, look
ing beneath, the purpose is seen to be
to give the new German monarch an
outlet for his lmitless ambition,
With this as his history, it was not
astonishing that the prince should en-.
ter the lists for the military oppressor
of Alsace.Lorraine. As punishment tho

| him to drudging in n Berlin bureau.
| Long ago the kaiser had put quietus
to Friedrich Wilhelm s propensity TO
hunt wild beasts in India and like
| places, after one experience. The prince
was told TO go hunt tame phea sa nts
and he.ded boars in the German for
ests. Then the prince was forbidden TO
enter the drag hunts because his horse
had pitched him on his head and
knocked out most OF his front teeth.
Now the kaiser would see his son ride
a horse not at all-and this one of the
youths whom he reared to arms from
their tenth year.
But the spirit that burned in Cyrus

 When Umpire Jimmy Murray first appeared in Milwaukee last season and before he had finished his first series, he had chased several Mil Eaukee players out of the lot. Later We met him on the road and learned to know him better-the introduction came near to the exchange of blows, But we knew him still better. Later when we saw a wild-eyed bug jump out of the stands with an ice pick in his hand at Louisville, and aftet police reserves had been called and the game continued. we SAW this same Murray. the coolest man in the park, and then to have him rende'

ASK FOR PARKER ROAD
 DATA FOR T0UR-F0Lk
Weekly Line of Data for Colorado River Road Sought by Board of
 Trade-Borderand to Line Up

Like the itch the desire to promote good roads is catching, and lasts, and is eyer present once it takes hold. Perhaps it is emulation that caused the board of trade to decRre for road bul letins along the highways running east and west into Phoenix. Emulation oi the New Mexico idea, which is: ''Keel the Good Roads Before the Touring Public"
 So the board of trade is feeling its way along, trying to line up the ob- servers.

The Messed-Up Income Tax.

This is the last week for filing income tax returns
According TO reports from Washington, few tax
payers have made out their declarations far and
that is only natural since who tell but some new
regulation may he issued this week in conflict with
one OF the many Qualifications Of the past? The
Treasury instructions make volume bigger
than the text of the law. and il is impossible task
for the layman-and for most lawyers-to harmon
ze the Treasury interpretations with one another or
with the language Of the return blanks of the act
itself
The best that any taxpayer can be expected to do
IS TO make what seems TO him rational and honest
return. The most helpful thing we have seen in the
many commentaries on the law is this sentence from
the report just published by Mr.. John Nicholson of
this city: In the present formative period OF this
tax the bar feels the government will not penalize
errors IN returns when good faith is apparent"
The Internal Revenue Bureau supplies printed
form OF declaration for individuals the last page
Of which there is an instruction that husband and
wife making joint declaration must sign together
But there is place in the form for more than one
signature and the language used shows that the
turn is meant 10 be that Of one person. The blank
contains space for declaring income from stocks,
the normal tax which IS not due from ndi-
vidual, but recently, it is understood the Treasury
Department gave out directions TO omit this un-
necessary entry The maker of the return cannot
follow both the form and the Treasury instruction
The taxpayer must be 10 large extent his own in
terpreter OF the conflicting demands made upon him
II he is sensible be will omit from the declaration
any income earned or sccruing before March t. 1919

WIRELESS AS A FOG SIGNAL
1t Is Suggested That Warnings Be Sent
Out at Regular Intervals.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: In my morning local paper ! see
an article entitled Value of Wireless

ing Collisions Having had some expert
ence both in navigation and radio teleg-
raphy from the standpoint OF an amateur,
II seems TO me that wireless could be

At present ships are unaware OF each
others presence till within hearing dis
tance. I'm fog and storm this distance IS
too limited for the full degree of safety

most people know, may he sent out with

upon the energy with which they are

With steam whistle the navigator
judges its direction somewhat. but is

distance is. II We know the strength with
which they are SEM.

For Benton's death Great Britain may ask repara
dion from Huerta. whose government she has recog
nized. Or she may proceed TO exact damages III

Mexican government may exist when she makes her
claim But there is no inherent reason why this
country should at once change its policy toward
Mexico because a British subject has been put TO

patience with President Wilson's waiting policy in

And ii will serve TO increase the feeling here that
Intervention is likely TO prove inevitable in the end
The various hopes that the Mexican trouble would
somehow solve itself have proved illusOry. and this
killing Of foreigner who had gone TO the revO-
utonary headquarters TO protest against the lootnS
OF his property reminds us how unsafe the lives
and property of foreigners and how full of the posi-
biity of trouble the international situation is. The
expectation that Huerta would 'crumble' is more
remote than And the lively hope that the revO-
utoniSts would cut their way TO the capital with
their swords has little encoura cement now. Huerta
is safe in his capital unless there does for
him what he did for Madcro And the revolutioniSs
are content TO live off the country in their posses
