Germany's Sea Program

| ONG before the war, Lieutenant G eral

England and Germany came to blows on the

Tho Fate of Pine Camp

THE statement from an authority SO com
petent as the Chief Health officer OF
the city, that the closing of Pine Camp and
the consequent removal of its tuberculous
inmates either to their homes or to q hospital
i'll adapted to their treatment would be
nothing short of n calamity" demands the
attention Of the authorities.
Dr. Levy says that to send these unfortu-
mates back to their homes would involve not
only cruelty to themselves, because they are
not able financially to provide proper treat
ment, but also danger to others. He is OPP
posed also to sending them to the City Hos
pital, where they will not have the advantage
OF fresh country air, Of so much benefit in
cases of tuberculosis.
The tuberculosis Camp Society has offered
to turn Pine Camp over to the city, free OF
any further expense than the obligation to
maintain 1t. If there is hesitation to accept
this offer. it would appear to be based in
part on objections to establishing a perma-
nent tuberculosis colony on the northern
boundary of Ginter Park and so interfering
with the development OF some of the city's
most attractive suburbs. Hesitation is in
spired also by the thought.'thfit Richmond
some day will purchase municipal farm,
whereon quarters for INDECENT consumptives
may be established.
Perhaps it is possible to reconcile these
conflicting views. If the city took over Pine
Camp, agreeing to operate it until the munich
pal farm is purchased, the tuberculosis Camp
Society might be willing to consent that it's
property be sold and the proceeds applied 20
the establishment and equipment of a new
camp on the property thus acquired
That, at any rate would be one way out
The essential is that the city shall not neglect
the unfortunates the society is able to care
for no longer. That is compelling duty,
which cannot be evaded and which should be
met in the best spirit Of real kindness and
helpfulness.

Allies Finding the Men

IVY HENCE it comes and under whose
wv urgency it would be difficult to say,
but there is evident immense improve
ment in the efficiency of the allied armies
and of the allied strategy since the war be-
gan. The improvement shows to no better
advantage than in the manner by which
fresh reinforcements are brought up to coun-
terbalance new German armies in the battles
along the Belgian coast.
The taking of Antwerp relieved 100000
men for the attack on the channel ports, or
so 1t was reported from German sources at
the time The escaping Belgian army could
not have amounted to more than 100000 or
so, 900 men, and the probabilities are that it
was not nearly numerous. To preserve
the equilibrium, the allies had to make up
this discrepancy, and they have been able to
do it without apparent difficulty.

Looking to the Tax Millennium.

HERE is much to be commended in the
report of the State Tax Commission,
filed Saturday in the Office of the Governor,
but the recommendation for the abolition of
the LAND grabbers' act and the proposed
changes In methods of taxing railroads pos
sess special interest and Importance
The Gland grabbers' act" never had any
real Justification, anyhow, and has none to-
day. 1t permits the acquisition of property
at tax sales, and encourages the INSCRIPTIONS
to harry the poor and unfortunate. The
plan proposed, under which lands on which
taxes have become delinquent must be sold
at public auction and after due advertise
ment, is vast Improvement
AS to railroads, the commission recon-
mends that the tax on gross earnings be
abandoned, and that tax Of values be sub
stituted. The basis for this taxation Is to
be arrived at by the consideration of gross
and net earnings, value of physical property
and franchises, value of securities, and, in
deed, Of all the methods by which, under
various circumstances and In various States,
railroads required to pay their share of
the public expense.
Summarizing it's whole labors and pur-
poses the commission says it has sought to
effect more complete justice in the matter of
taxation among the individuals and corpora
lions Of the State-to relieve those who pay
too much and to reach with the long arm of
the law those who pay too little or moth
ing at all.
Surely, it is fair ambition, that deserves
to be attained, and that certainly may be
attained in part by the enactment of decent
tax laws. But reforms of this character
ought not to neglect the individual. There
are good many persons, of excellent repute
in the community. who consider tax-dodging
a very venial sin. 1t is true they defend
their course, partly on the ground that the
whole system is grossly inequitable and part
ly because "everybody's doing it, but there
is some casuistry in these defenses
II is not only the TAX law that must be re-
formed before attain the millennium to

Under Harvest Moon.


Last year the harvest moon looked down
On bounteous fields OF grain
4 peaceful scene where lovers strolled
Along the shady lane
In happy homes the mothers sang
Their evening lullaby,
And little children had no fear
OF danger lurking nigh.
But now the demon war is loosed
And terrors fill the night,
The dangers Of the burning home
The dangers OF the flight.
Mothers and children hide and wait.
They listen, fear, and pray.
While shells are bursting all around
And armies pass their way.
Tonight upon tho harvest field,
The moon Is shining bright,
Where soldier forms lie mute and still
With faces CHASTITY white
Oh, what reaping! Oh. what loss!
The flowers OF earth cut down
The voice of mourning In the field
And by the ruined town!
