FREIGHT, wine
AND BEER WILL
RAISE WAR FUND
Draft of New Revenue Bill Pre-
pared by Ways and Means
Committee ..
TAX ON DOMESTIC WINE
A STARTLING PROPOSAL
Creates Problem for Federal
Officials and May Start In
duStry in Opposition

IAssociated Press by Federal Wirel ssl
WASHINGTON, b.. c., Sept. TO-
The ways and means committee of the
house, under the direction Of Chair
man Underwood, kas completed a
draft Of the measure called for by
President: Wilson to supplement the
failing revenues. The bill prepared
by the ways and means committee
will raise $1c7, ,oco, 900 net annually in
Internal revenue. The tentative draft
provides for three per cent tax on
all freight transportation, fifty cents
! increase on each barrel of beer and 20
cents per gallon on domestic wine.
The despatch above is the first in
timatien that has been given to the
public as to the nature Of the pro-
posed internal revenue tax ether than
THAT there would be no increase in
the federal income tax.
What effect, If any. the proposed
three percent tax en- an freight trans
'pcFtaticn will have on Hawaiian sugar
and the prices of incoming cargoes
cannot be known until the details of
the bill. where the tax is collected,
ETC., are further settled.
The internal revenue tax on beer is
now 81 a barrel, the increase bring
ing the tax up to $1.50.
The tax CT 20 cents gallon on do
mestic wines is a new tax en-
tirely. At the present time domes-
tic wine comes into the market with
cut any payment of an internal rev.
enue tax
It is pointed out by men familiar
with internal revenue and taxing
methods that the imposition Of tax
on domestic wine will create big
problem. for federal officials to han
die. Methods must be created of su.
pervisiCns of the entire industry from
the growing of grapes to the ware
housing cf the completed product. 1t
viii entail an immense amount of Ia
Dor and in wine-growing districts will
probably make necessary large in
crease in the number of federal Off
cials and employees. ...-
1t is believed also that the big wine
producing associations of the main
land states. such as those of Califor-
mia and Indiana, will bitterly oppose
the placing of the tax on the domestic
product. ..- g. .."
Some surprise is caused by the fail
ure of the house committee to put
whisky on the list of alcoholic pro-
ducts to be specially taxed for the
war deficit fund. -.
OF course the new bill is still in a
tentative form. has not yet been re-
ported out of the house committee.

Federal Tribunal
ASSIGNMENT PROVES
SATISFACTORY TO ALL
Conviction ON Charge Makes
the Defendant Liable to | Large
Fine or Long Imprisonment

On the motion of City and County
Attorney Cathcart, Judge c. w. Ash
ford this morning transferred the
case of jeff McCarn to Judge William
l.. Whitneys division and the latter
has set next Wednesday for begin
ming the trial. 1t is expected that the
selection of a jury will occupy several
days time. The naming of veinremen
for the jury will begin Wednesday at
10 o'clock and the trial the following
Monday morning. ..5.
This mornings action by Judge
Ashford follows the ruling Of U. 5.
District Judge s. B. Dole yesterday.
In which the latter held that the fed
erai court did not have jurisdiction
and dismissed the indictment pending
against McCarn there. Thus the in.
dtctment returned against McCarn by
the territorial grand jury, charging
him with an assault with deadly
weapon, is the only one remaining to
be- disposed of. Conviction on that
charge under the territorial statute
places the defendant liable to sent
ence of fine of not more than $1,000
or Imprisonment for not more than
five years. -. -
1t was mutually agreed that Judge
Ashford, although he has charge OF
the criminal work Of the first circuit,
should not sit in this case for the
reason that he is disqualified by
the fact that he was one of de-
fendant's counsel in earlier actions
which involved the same charge
against McCarn. Just before Judge
Ashfords court convened this morn
ing a conference was held In his cham
bers with City and County
Attorney Cathcart. and Attorney
Joseph Lightfoot. Immediately
after the morning session be-
gan Cathcart presented his motion
for an assignment Of the case Ito
some other division of this circuit"
fer the reason, he stated. that the
judge of the first division was dis
qualified. ...
Judge Ashford then read the follow

THE Boys Scouts Hike Book and
THE Boys Camp Book"
OBODY gets more pleasure
~ from camping out than the
Boy Scouts. And this is be-
cause the Scouts are taught system
and are governed by routine and dis
cipline. Yet the average person on
going to camp seems to think camp
is the last place in the world for
routine and system-a place to let
things slide" 1t is, but only in the
abstract sense, the finest place in the
world to forget the humdrum routine
of a work-a-day existance.
Concretely, the camp must be sys-
tematically regulated, or the perplex-
tiles and vexstions we go to camp to
forget will crop up on every hand.
system in camp disposes of neces-
sary work in jig time, prevents waste
of precious hours, insures comfort,
and it is so simple and easy there
is no excuse for things being at skies
and sevens, as they are in so many
camps.
The systematic camper is not by
any means a paragon of punctilious-
ness and exactness. He is simply a
level headed, practical sort of fellow,
who believes in doing thing right.
In selecting his camp site he uses at
least a bit of foresight, with the re-
suit that he is not drowned out by
surface water when it rains or driv-
en- frantic by mosquitoes as soon as
night comes.
He provides for drainage and a

the morning and breakfast on time.
In consequence, he has time for the
pleasures Of the camp while the care
less camper is niiserably wrestling
with the problem OF FIRE making with
wet wood and hungering for his
breakfast.
More important still, the system
attic camper is particular about his
water supply and the sanitation OF
his camp. 1t costs him no more ef-
fort, perhaps, than to be neglectful,
but in the end he is least likely of all
campers to be taken down with va
cation typhoid" about which We
hear so much every year following
the vacation season.
1t is manifestly so much easier
pursue ones camping right, or,
other words, in systematic mann
that it is great wonder so many pr
sist in going at it wrong end to. Un-
doubtedly the Boy Scout movement
offers an exceptional opportunity in
this direction, for by starting out
some hundreds of thousands of the
best boys in the country with SEN
sible ideas on camping, and teaching
them the practical details, we are
creating a new generation of camp
ers which will put to shame the shift
less methods and silly Alterations o.
hardihood which camping has suf-
fered from so long.
The Boy Scouts, "ooof taught"
campers, if you please, sfeady can
teach the average experieiced adult
camper a lot of things it w'uld profit
him to know-chief anon which is

minimum OF annoyance from insect
pests by selecting high, dry, well
lighted site, where the breezes will
find him if any are blowing and
where the healthy sunshine will find
him, too. This is accomplished with
no more effort than it would require
TO pick out the very worst place pos
sible to pitch a camp. In short, he
insures himself against all sorts OF
unfortunate complications by the
simple use Of systematic system
Of practical camping.
In like manner, he lessons his
camp work by having well chosen
kit and outfit. BY using aluminium
alloy cooking utensils he gets the
highest efficiency in that direction.
By pitching his tent properly and
driving his tent pegs at the right
angle he is not bothered by having
the tent blow down in storm or
the tent pegs pulled up by ropes
made taut by rain-and incidently he
sees to it that those guy ropes are
properly Stacked beforehand, so they
will not tighten to the degree of peg
pulling or grommet ripping.
In a great many stories Of camp
ing out one reads Of the difficulties
of making breakfast fires with damp
or wet wood. The systematic camp
er has few such experiences. Where
as the hsppy-go-lucky camper goes
blissfully to bed with no thought of
his morning FIRE, the systematic fell
low has his morning wood already
gathered and under cover. A few
sticks of dry wood in the tent or
under a tsrpsulin, protected from
