SUGGESTS A TAX
ON FIRMS MAKING
WAR MUNITIONS
Such a Tax Would Be a
Great Help, Says Mr..
Tavenner.
3 OLSON GARDNER.

WASHINGTON. July ALTO meet
the deficit in government revenues a
tax on the private manufacture OF war
munitions, which industry is now reach
ing enormous proportionsAn the Unit
ed State, isSuggested by Congressman
Clyde H. Tavenner Of Illinois, who Will
introduce bill for this purpose when
congress convenes.
Tavenner has made himself known
throughout the country as the principal
congressional opponent Of what he
calls the war Trust" He objects 10
the private manufacture OF munitions
OF war, charging that the government
is now and has been paying from one
third to one.half more than the cost
would be if all munitions Of war were
manufactured in government plants.
He objects further because he believes
private manufacture will eventually
build up Kruppism in the United
States. and that the making OF private
profit from this source furnishes a dan
gerous motive to bring about not only
war scares. but war itself
As one check on private manufac-
ture and step toward complete gov
eminent manufacture OF war NUM-
tions, Mr.. Tayenner proposes this fed
eral tax.
THE manufacture OF war munitions
in the United States" said Mr.. Taven
ner today discussing his proposed bill.
lis reaching enormous proportions 1t
has been immensely stimulated by the
foreign war If there is any business
which should legitimately pay war
tax certainly business which IS max
ing enormous profits from war ought
to be the one The foreign war so de-
ranged business conditions in the Unit
ed States that it was necessary for the
administration to levy special war
tax. 1t seems to me that We ought to
make the people who are reapinG the
benefits also bear the burden. Then.
too. personally hope that such tax
would be the first step toward the
ultimate government ownership and
operation OF every plant in the United
States producing munitions OF war.
This business is 4 government func'
ton. We are already producing part
OF the materials used by our army and
navy. and in ever" case We are doing
il very much cheaper than private
firms. We could enlarge our army and
navy probably one-fourth at least
without a single cent additional appro-
priatiGn ii what we waste in paying
large profits 10 private firms we're used
by the government itself in producing
its own munitions.

SOLDIERS NEED No
 CHARITY, SENTIMENT

A wounded British soldier has dealt a quiet rebuke to the sentimentaliz- ings over him and his like. He is living, he says, like lord, in a fine house in smart suburb of London, waited upon by lovely women, visited by equally lovely women, usually bear their kindly thought but he thinks of the wives and children of his com rades at the front He would rather this kindness were put to work in the quarters where it would be less pie turesque and more useful. He con- cludes with this prayer:
 Lord, keep us wounded men mod est and open our eyes to the purer heroism of those men and women who denied the brave show of the battle field, sacrifice themselves every day to the tedious tasks for which we have not the courage"
 
 grained in this; something wonderful ly true and deep And it has an appli- cation wider than the English hoSpi- tals. How many institutions have been cumbered by requests for silly displays of the doner's name! How many bronzes and marbles have lum- bered up our public places at an ex- pense which ought to have gone to cleaning and beautifying squalid streetsi This wounded soldier has belittled his own sacrifice in order that he may, with gentleness and truth, correct the foolish show of kindness which prefers the pleasant charity to needful. How easy it is to flatter our self-respect with the con science money of kindness. How much harder it is to do the rough, and heavy work.
 Let us be honest with ourselves even in our harities.-Boston Globe.
