RECOVERY FROM GRIP

The form of influenza popularity called
grip lasts but short time, is seldom fatal
but causes suffering and misery out of all
proportion to it's Importance.
The reason is this. When the acute
stage of the grip is passed there often re-
mains a neurasthenia that persists for
months if not properly corrected. The
patient is moody, in poor spirits, suffers
lack of appetite and yigor and feels in
disposed to work or even to enjoy life.
Warmth and quiet alone give comfort
and these not for long at time. Sleep
is restless and does not refresh th5 nerves
which are always at high tension.
The best way to correct this after-efect
of the grip is to build up the blood and

houses and the internal revenue
Offices do not levy taxes on men
according to their wealth or abil-
ity to pay, bat solely upon things
the people eat, wear, and use, it
means that the people pay the
armor-plate makers bills in the
increased cost of living.
Therefore it is but logical that
the cost OF living must increase
in proportion to the cost of mill
taryism and it does. as the table
heretofore shows beyond success
ful contradiction. The people
may as we'll know that as the
cost of militaryism increases in
the future so will the cost of liv-
ing.
To make clearer my statement
that the poor man has been pay
ing almost as much toward de-
fraying the expenses of the fed
eral government as the rich man
permit me to correct the impress
sion of the average person that
some part Of the taxes he has
been paying to his local tax col
:ector has been sent to. Washing
ton for the purpose of maintains
ing the federal government.
The truth is that not a penny of
the taxes we have been paying
our local tax collectors has come
to Washington. Every penny of
such taxes has gone toward de-
fraying the expenses of township
city, and state. TE erefore if u
millionaire pays a heavy state tax
none of it goes toward defraying
the cost of the army and navy or
maintaining the federal govern
ment. The manner in which the
people have been supporting the
army and navy and meeting all
other expenses has been by pay
ing increased prices for things
eaten, worn or used. The local
grocer and dry goods merchant
has been the federal tax collector
without knowing it, CT without
his average customer knowing it.
To the extent that the average
poor man eats the same amount
food as the rich man he as been
paying as much tax. Funds for
themaintainance of the army and
navy, as we'll as all other federal
expenses, have thus in the past
been raised wholly in the fern of
increased cost of living.
1t is true of course, that we
now have an inc ,me-tax law on
the statutes, and this will help
some but until the tax on incomes
in excess of $40, 900 annually is
increased much above the pres
ent rates, and until there is a
stiff Federal inheritance-tax law,
so that those who derive the
greatest benefit from military ex
penditures will bear the heaviest
burden of their cost. as they
should, the poor man will contin-
ue to carry the heaviest load in
proportion to his ability to pay,
just as he always has done and
just as the stcne in the bottom of
the wall bears more weight than
it's more fortunate brethern on
the top.

Admiral Vreeland. If it con-
tinues to increase, the poorer ma
tion will eventually exhaust it.
self, and then the other nations.
the United States included, will
have a free hand, | mean be free
to build in accordance with the
changed conditions.
''Mr. Gray. Then i. is only q
question of the limit of taxations?
Admiral Vreeland. Yes, sir"
In other words, the only thing
that the international war trust
has to fear on the score Of re-
duction Of profits is the limit of
the ability Of men, women, and
children to keep on paying the
increasing per capita appropria-
ton tax in the form of higher
prices for foodstuffs and wearing
apparel. This is certainly a
bright prospect for the Armor,
Powder, Battleship, and Ammu
milton Trusts. But for the tax
payers the prospects not so
bright.
If the taxpayers Of the world
want to escape being forced to
pay higher and higher taxes un-
till tn ey get so high they simply
can not pay them, there is but
one thing to do. and that is for
the people of all the nation to in
sist that their Government man
ufacture their own munitions of
war.
If the millionaire and multi
millionaire war-trust macnates
can not make hug e profits in sup
plying the Armor, guns, powder
and battleships, they will take
the same attitude toward the
wasting of public funds that the
rest Of us do.
The increase in the cost of our
Army and Navy in the last 20
years is enough to stagger the
Imagination and bewilder the
senses. The cost Of our Army
and Navy is greater in proper
ton to it's size than that of any
other nation on earth. The in
crease is absolutely normal when
considered in proportion to the
increase in our population. or the
increase, in wealth, or when con-
sidered with the increased cost
of preparation for war in other
in time of peace. In
this connection it is legitimate to
ask to what extent the awful in
crease cost is due to the syste-
matte agitating of the possibility
of war by those who protie finan-
cially from the ever-increasing
of the military
of our government.
In the last thirty years our
has increased IS per
cent; our wealth 185 per cent;
and our expenditures 400 per
cent,
During the Is years prior to
the Spanish-American War our
annual appropriations for the Ma.
w ranged from $14, ,00O,00 to
$50, 600, 600. and for the Army
less than $25, 600, 600, averaging
for both leos than $50, 600, 600.
In 1883 our appropriation for
the Navy was $14. 903, $50; in 49,
80, approximately $40. 900, 600.
Our appropriations for the Army
and Navy combined for the en-
suing year will be in the neigh
borhbod of $24O. 600. 900.

Hook upon the loan of money
to such men as only designed to
continue the war and keep up the
useless bloodshed. l look upon
it as an attempt to sway public
opinion in a neutral country by
making million Americans or
more financially interested in the
success of one set of beligerents
because they hold their bonds.
/ say again that the commission.
ers should have been dismissed
without compunction by the gov
ernment upon their arrival here
and sent back home.
'"The loan means only sorrow
and high taxes for thousands OF
men and women in England and
France. Every cent that goes
from this country; every shell
that is made; every ounce of
powder that is sold to the beliger-
ents means only more murder
and destruction, ! will have moth
ing to do with it, have no re-
spect for any who have to do with
it.
Back of it all is the military
ring that profits financially. It is
not a matter of national honor,
of horror over the plight of an
invaded country. or even of sem
timent for, or against a beliger-
ent, it is gold purely and simply.
If they could sell to Germany
they would be just as willing to
close contracts with that govern
ment for their supplies.
Il have no apologies to make
for my position. l believe that.
the Whole thing is waste on
gigantic scale premeditated by
the men who make money from
war.
Il do not blame it on the Kai- F.
ser, the Gear, or any other exec
utive. nor upon the commanding
generals. They are controlled
by ring that overpowers them.
Il believe that Prussian mill
tarism should be crushed, but l
also believe thar all militarism
should be crushed. British naval
ism is as much "a cause of the
conflict as any big army.
Our President has felt the
pressure of this ring that owns
war and uses it upon the world
when it wants to, but he has re-.
sisted it and I believe he will
continue to do so. 1t is up to tho
peoples of the nation to stop war.
With this awful daily example
before the world, l believe it to
be the best time to remind the
people that they can end all war.
The press of the world could stop
this war, if the press of the
world would.

Speech Of Clyde H. Tavenner
In regard to Government own
ership of Munitions Of War.
Extract from Congressional
Record.
BY Clyde H. Tavener.

United States Senator George
T. Oliver, of Pennsylvania, tes-
iiied before the Ser ate lobby
investigation committee that he
owned 1000 shares of stock in
the United States Steel Corpor-
alton and held considerable"
interest in copper mining. He
testified he also owned Z. 700
shares in the Pittsburgh Coal Co.
and two newspapers the Pitts
burgh Gazettee- Times and the
Pittsburgh Chronicle Telegraph.
Increased armament requires
great quantities of both copper
and coal.
The United States Steel Cor
poration is the owner OF the
Carnegie Steel Co., which con-
cern has obtained $32, 600. 900
worth of contracts from the Navy
Department for armor alone, and
other millions Of dollars worth of
contracts for other materials u.s.
ed in the increasing of the Army
and Navy.
Ga February 2, 1915, one of
Senator divers newspapers ed
itorially asked:
But what is meant by that re-
sounding mouthful' disarm-
ament by the United States?.
Isl.'t the fact that the United
States is pretty well disarmed as
matters stand?. There isn't

MIR. Gray. l wish to inquire
of the admiral if it is not the po-

Mr.. Gray. What would be
the advantage to US or any other
powers if the Eavies were in

of the world? Would there be

It is pertinent to inquire where
the millions that have been pour
ed into milita~ism to the enrich
ment of the armor and ammuni-
ton capitalists came from. These
millions were not picked up in
the streets, and they were not
contributed by the rich. Our
citizens have not contributed in
proportion to their wealth, but
the poor man has paid on an av-
erage almost as much as the rich
and since there are so poor to
every rich man,it means that the
millions that have piled up in the
pockets of the armo;-plate mag
mates have come from the puck
cts of the poor.
And this is the feature of mil
itarism-gone-mad that strikes
home-the fact that the wasted
millions did not come from an in
