1921 Corporations operat. in state.

There were 1921 corporations in
business in Colorado in 1915 as shown
by records of license taxes paid In
the office Of Secretary OF State
Ramer. That is an increase Of I,044
corporations more than those paying
license taxes in 1911. The revenue in
the flat tax department from the Ii,
cense fees in 1915 was $44,567.95 and
in 1914 1t was $39,S97.69. Two rea.
sons account for the increase-im.
promcnt in general business condi.
tions and a change made by the sec.
retary Of state in handling flat taxes.
Mr.. Ramer's position is that persons
and corporations doing business with
his office should be treated as
thoughtfully and carefully as If his of.
flee was purely business one. Thus,
he has instituted system of notify
ing corporations tina: their taxes are
due, giving amounts and sending
blank annual reports required. Under
the law, the secretary of state is not
required to notify the corporations
and no notice has heen given them
heretofore. The result was many
companies overlooked the require.
ments. Through tho new system all
corporations at slight expense are re-
minded Of the requirements and many,
which otherwise would forget, quick
ly forward their reports and fees.

Austria has acceded to the de-
mands of the United States on the
sinking of the Ancona. The subma-
rine commander who sunk the vessel
has been punished.
The Suez canal is threatened by the
Germans. British officials admit the
seriousness OF the danger. and insur-
ance 'ates on vessels using the canal
route have been greatly increased.
Survivors of the British liner Persia
say the ship was sunk without warn
ing. One hundred and fifty-eight of
passengers and crew were saved.
American Consul Robert McNeely was
drowned and the relations of the
United States with Austrio again are
endangered.
The great offensive by the Russians
in Bessarabia and Galicia continues
with some gains claimed by the Rus
SLAMS. Military critics call the new
battle the most important move of
the war since the invasion OF Serbia.
1t is designed strategicaliy to take
from the Kaiser the advantage he has
long enjoyed of choosing his own
ground for the big battle. Some
critics declare 1t also is intended to
squeeze the Teutons out of the Bal
kans. The central powers have been
compelled to gather 10000 men on
the 3OO-mile front chosen by the car
for his drive and apparently are un.
able to make any big move at any
other front. Thus Austria and Ger
many, long on the offensive, are now
on the defensive. The Russians are
abundantly supplied with guns and
shells and are using them freely.
