King Ahab seems to have been the

HELP THE BABIES

Although Americans have shown 6
ready generosity toward the stricken
and needy people of Europe since the
beginning Of he present great war, a
relief plan just organized in New yorl,
City, is believed to hold stronger and
straighter appeal to this nation than
any previous one Of kindred nature.
This plan was inaugurated by Mrs.
Whitney Warren, Treasurer of the
Secours National which has been send
| ing food and clothing to the destitute
aged people, women and children IN
France. The object of this new work
is to send kits containing. necessary ar
ticles of wear to the babies and little
children of the destitute and devasted
sections of France.
There is a double appeal to this
work. First; it does not seek in any
way to furnish aid to the belligerent
or fighting branch of the French ma
ton. Second; it does aim to give
greatly needed aid to children-to
little children who are in need and
helpless. There are thousands of these
little ones in France to-day, homeless
orphans who are in rags or completely
destitute Of clothing. These are the
children the Secours National propos-
es to help.
1t is no reflection upon the French
Government that this distressing con-
dition exists to-day. That peaceful
cultured nation was precipitated into
a war of defense and, against terrible
odds, has worked wonders in sustain
ing its army and caring for the nom
combatants.
But France cannot accomplish mir
acles and it is from America that help
for these children must come, children
whose great grandfathers hundred
years ago fought to make America
free.
1t is now the time of year when
Americans-blessed with the liberty
France helped to win for her-are en-
joying the benefits and pleasures Of
vacation. These little children OF
France are suffering for the necessi-
ties of life. Would it not be beautiful
~ appropriate for Americans TO give a
small part--of their va
cation funds for this worthy cause
Will you help these children =?
Arrangements have been made

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER

Washington, d. c., July 5--One of
the most vital and inexcusable errors
a legislative body can commit is to
pass law containing discrepancy in
the date it shall take effect
The Democratic Congress incorpor-
ated just such a blunder in the war
tax" law.
Section q Of this law declares that
"the stamp taxes prescribed on the
articles provided for in Schedule B..
shall attach to all such articles thirty
days after the approval of he act"
Schedule B itself, however, provides
that "all articles and preparations
provided for which are in the hands Of
manufacturers or dealers on Deem
Der /, 1914, shall be subject to the
payment Of the stamp taxes herein"
etc.
The two provisions are absolutely
contradictory. When the Treasury
Department came to enforce the law
it was unable to harmonic the two
conflicting dates. Congress had al
joured and it was impossible to cor
rect the blunder by proper legislative
action.
A forced Interpretation was the only
alternative. The Department arbi-
trarily fixed the date of enforcement,
virtually assuming a function that be-
longed only to the legislative body.
The whole subject of financial leg
islation seems TO have been a fatal
stumbling block TO the Democrats.
While they have Numbered in scores
of other important measures, this
tendency has been especially empha-
sized in every statute dealing with
the receipt or expenditure Of money to |
conduct the affairs of government.
The last Congress passed three laws
notably designed TO raise money!
first, the tariff law; second, the income
tax law; and third, the war tax" 1t /
is significant that the revenues from |
each fell short of the amount needed,
thereby contributing TO the treasury
deficit, and has led to mass Of ex-
pensive litigation because the legisla-
tive intent could be determined only
by judicial Interpretation.
