MOTOR CAR OWNERS
AGAINST A WAR TAX
Senators Getting Letters Pro-
testing Against Assessment
of GasoIene and Automobiles

Now that the Senate Finance Commit.
tee is talking of substituting for the
gasolene tax a tax on automobiles. To
be measured by horsepower. the owners
of motor cars are be"inning to De
heard from. A grand chorus OF kicks
is being sounded in the form of letters
to Senators and House members warn
ing them that the automobile is no
longer a luxury. but necessity.
Members are being reminded in these
protests that to tax automobiles would
mean taxing motor trucks and vehicles
used by merchants and business houses
and that this would be a tax on bust
ness in another guise. They are also
being reminded that great numbers of
the farmers now own automobiles and
use them. not as luXuries. but as use
ful adjuncts to their industry
A hot blast on the automobile tax
blew In today from a Western preacher,
the Rev. V. NJ. Elston, Of Griswold.
Iowa. He denounced the proposed tax
on gasolene and also the proposed
automobile tax. He said Sasolene
was used by the farmers and others
for power purposes and its use was
AS for the automobile tax. he informed
Senator Kenyon, 10 whom he wrote,
that the automobile had become a
necessity, whereas a lot OF benighted
folk seemed to be laboring along under
the obsolete notion il was still 4 luxury.
He said that on a single evening in his
little town ne had counted 135 auto
mobiles, mainly belonging to farmers
and not owned by wealthy people.
Fourthermore, he said the automobile
tax woulT work unfairly. He illustrated
this by saying he mad an old 1911 car
which still gave good service. but which
on forced sale would command not
to exceed 500
Ie sses it in making the rounds Of
his flock and attending to his duties as
pastor. He figured the proposed tax
would amount to about IS. This would
meaning SIG in tax on a sl0O machine.
At the same rate, he figured, the owner
of forty acres of good Iowa land would
have to $3.50 taxes. He averred ii was
too much. and, though apologizing for
the length Of his letter. made it plain
he was moved deeply.
This is but one of many objections
from the motor owners.
Protests to Congress against various
features Of the war tax bill promise to
have some effect on the Senate Finance
Committee The committee. which is
now considering the bill. may reduce
the amount OF the bank tax and read
just the insurance tax so as to re-
duce the tax on life insurance policies
and eliminate tax on accident policies.
Senator Simmons. chairman, hopes to
report the bill to the Senate before the
end of this week.

There was every indication that the
Republican gathering in kalamazoo
would be serene and peaceful. The one
chance of a serious clash. apparently
rested on the possibility that Chase s

the party leaders might not agree on
platform planks. Osborn several
months ago went on record as favorin-

when tbs issue threatened to stir up IN

that he would make no effort to dictate

Contests for places on the various

SURE way TO

ter and uric acid, all rne rest remains
in the blood and circulates through the
system. where it lodges in the joints
and muscles, and causes all the trouble
The only way to overcome this, is to
make your kidneys work properly You
can easily and surely do this by taking
little Croxone. which never fails to act
promptly.
Croxone not only cleans out the clog
ged UP kidneys, strengthens them and
makes them active. but 1t neutralizes
and dissolves the poisonous waste sub
stances. and uric acid. that scratch and
irritate and cause rheumatism. so the
kidneys can filter it from the blood
and drive 1t out of the system.
CroIone Is believed to be the most
remarkable preparation ever known for
the prompt relief and cure of rheuma-
tism, kidney troubles. and bladder dis
orders. 1t is entirely different from
other remedies. 1t is so prepared that
1t is practically impossible to take it
without results. Relief follows the first
few doses. and you will be surprised
how quickly stiff. sore. swollen joints.
and muscles. rheumatic pains. and all
such misery ends.
An original package OF Croxone costs
but trifle. and every druggist recon-
mends and sells it on a positive money
back guarantee. Three doses a day. for
a few days, is often all that Is ever
needed to overcome the worst backache
or most annoying urinary disorders

structed the athletic committee at West
Point to abandon further negotiations
with the Navy committee for foot
