attitude toward Serbia To compen-
safe for the loss of Macedonia, Serb
ians are demanding that they be al
lowed to annex northern Albania
This would be a fair trade, because.
with a part Of Albania in her pos
session Serbia would have an outlet
to the sea through her own territory
and would cease to remain an inland
state But Italy is not overpleased
with the idea of Serbia breaking
through to the Adriatic. One reason
why the Roman government entered
the war was to make the Adriatic an
Italian lake, and to secure dominant
position over the Slavs that border
the Adriatic's eastern shore. = If Ser
bia becomes an Adriatic power, Italy
must limit her ambitions.
Serbia has already conquered a
large part of northern Albania, and
but recently suspended her Albanian
campaign because of Italian objec-
tions. Italy, however, has not been
sufficiently successful in the war to
be able to dictate to her allies. Fur
thermore, Italy can be compensated in

riatic holding and if Bulgaria there

While we do not think that trial by

element Of individual eccentricity as
an impeachment to the administration

part Of judges is constantly exhibited
and scarcely excites comment. An

when the two meet in New York next
Thursday night. Welsh in the light
weight division is master Of the ten
round game, just as Mike Gibbons is
among the middleweights.
Ritchie's only chance to nail the
victory is to put over a damaging
punch or two which viii make up for
the speed and cleveTness the British
er is sure to exhibit. Few men in
the game can hit Fred hard enough to
hurt him when he is fresh, and he

his work, remaining probably until
the day Of the battle, when he will

Smith is not favorabIy disposed
toward a proposition to substitute
with some other heavy for the John

Mexican city would be willing to put
on the go and provide a fair guar

Discussion Of Democratic Direct Taxes

Senator AISLE J. Gronna, Of North
Dakota. 1t is my conviction that the
necessity for the imposition Of taxes
like these some Of which bear heavily
and unequally on certain members Of
each community arises from the mis-.
taken fiscal policy Of the present ad-
ministration. In former years we have
found it possible TO raise the revenue
necessary for the support OF the Gov
eminent in time Of peace without i'm
posing taxes on many Of the com
mon transactions OF life in the
manner this act does. This admins
tration came into power pledged to a
program Of economy, which it was
stated, would reduce the appropriations
iat below what they had been under
Republican administration. Yet the
expenditures Of this administration have
been greater than under any administra
ton since the Civil Was. It is often
urged that the war in Europe is respon'
sibe ior the failure Of the Underwood
Act to produce the needed revenues,
During the first nine months OF calen.

Austria's plea that it had never been
officially advised Of Americas views OF
submarine wareflre on merchant yes
sells is technically correct. We did
not notify all belligerents formally, as
we did concerning our view OF the
Declaration OF London and our attitude
toward contra1and. for example. But
it seems like a quible, in view Of the
common knowledge that Ambassador
Dumba conferred with Secretary Bry-
an about the Lusitania and publicly
declared that Mr.. Bryan had given
him certain private assurances that
amazed the country.
