STRICT ENFORCEMENT OF
REVENUE LAWS SWELL
GOLFERS OF NATION

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 19.-
Secretary McAdoo yesterday issued a
financial statement showing that less
new revenue is needed for the prepar-
edness program than was expected.
This surplus over the estimates,
says the statement, is due to the in
creased receipts following the strict
enforcement of all revenue laws, the
elimination Of frauds in the payment
of the taxes on tobacco, whiskey and
oleomargarine, but more especially be-
cause of the prosperity that has swept
over the whole country.

Chicago girl, is married to Admiral Sir David Beatty, the most distinguished figure in the British navy in the war He has twice defeated the German fleet on the only two occasions when it ventured in force into the North sea.
 Lady Beatty has always spent her money most literally in providing comforts and entertainments for the sailors in Admiral Beatty's command. Now, while her husband is risking his life and winning battles for his coun- try, she is compelled to hand over to the British government one third of her income.
 The Countess of Granard, who was Miss Beatrice Mills, daughter of MT. and Mrs. ogden Mills and grand daughter of the late multimillionaire, D. O. Mills, fs one of the conspicuous contributors to the British war chest. Her husband has gone to the front

Austria Could Have Owned Outright Invention
 Which Has Resulted I'm the Modern Torpedo

V INTEREST in the war still holds
 at the Dardanelles, where both
 N the naval and land forces of the
 allies are attempting to gain a notable success. Fleets are storming various ports, and at no time has the activity been more marked.
 Many interesting pictures of the British fighting forces have been TO- ceived in this country. The accom- panying one shows a Whitehead tor pedo being lifted aboard one of the battleships in the strait
 The locomotive torpedo, by which every nation sets such store as means both of attack and defense, might have been the exclusive property of Austria had that country been farsighted enough to hold that of which once she had complete control
 The torpedo was the invention Of an Austrian naval officer, Captain Luppis, who, prior to 1870 offered to his gov ernment a self propelling torpedo in shape much like a boat, driven by steam or clockwork mechanism and dl- rected from base by guiding lines at tached to a rudder. The bow of this miniature torpedo launch was filled with gunpowder, to be exploded by pistol in the bow of the boat
 But the Austrian government, While recognizing the value of Captain Lup- Dis invention, expressed the opinion that the device would not be practical without a better form of motive power and a system by which the craft could be steered independent Of a base.
 Robert Whitehead, whose name most of the torpedoes of the world bear to- day. was then the manager of an en- zine factory at Plume, and to him Cap tain Luppis took his model. MT. Whitehead, given the germ of the idea, then developed his first torpedo with practical working mechanism and steering device, all contained in a fish shaped hull.
 But still the Austrian government was unwilling to undertake the ex- penditures necessary for the develop ment of the torpedo, so Austria invited other world powers to witness tests and participate in them, with the re- suit that a year later, in 1869, the Brit ish admiralty sent a committee to the factory at Fiume which brought back with it two of the weapons. After many tests the British government purchased the right to manufacture torpedoes in England and the right to

 These, of course are only a few of the more conspicuous cases. There are upward of hundred American women of great wealth who have married Englishmen of title. They do not all come in the class of those who must pay the maximum tax of one-third of their incomes, but all of them must pay very heavily. Practically none will pay less than IS per cent, the rate that falls on those who have over $10.000 a year.

 The position of some of the Ameri- cans in England will doubtless excite general sympathy in this country. Lady Beatty. a beautiful and brilliant

was the last increase that would be required before the war was over.
 Americans and all foreigners living Tn England are subject to the in come tax if they maintain permanent residences there, whether they are British subjects or not
 1t has been roughly estimated that these Americans will contribute about billion dollars to the British war chest under the new income tax.
 A few of the principal American pay CTS of British income tax, with the amounts they will pay, approximated, are as follows:
 William Waldorf Astor, $1,250 OOO
 The Duchess of Marlborough daugh- ter of William K. Vanderbilt of New York, $150,000.
 The Duchess of Roxburghe daughter of the late Eugene Zimmerman of Gin cfnnati $10O,00O.

many cases been turned into hospitals. The young men of their acquaintances have perished on the battle front by scores, for the war has fallen most se- verely on the class which these Amer ican expatriates have joined.
 Had they stayed at home in Ameri- ca they would have found their in- comes lightly taxed. They would have had family and friends not decimated by slaughter
 The income tax Is graduated in- creasing with the size of the income a principle already established. Under the new budget it is increased to such a point that incomes above $1OO,00O a year will pay 3415 per cent, or more than one-third of the total amount Further Increase to Come.

in spirit, one in heart, until now, TO- 100000 strong, they are hailing the inn perial advent of Yoshihito, great brother linked to them all through the flesh of the world and the aura of the gods.
 When the Japanese shouts "Banzai" and holds his lighted lantern aloft, wishing the new mikado 10000 years of glory, it is not mere loyalty; it is love expressed in the magic terms of the race that has come from the Joins of the Goddess of the Sun. Natural and easy as it all seems to the hum blest or the proudest Japanese, it is to us the modern miracle of a robust modern nation throbbing to a single heart beat from the prehistoric world of gods and heroes amid the primal forces and elemental beginning of the world. Godhood chieftainship, broth erhood, mystic soul union, combine in the investiture of Yoshihito in the eyes of all the children of Nippon
 But the homelier glory, a more hu- namely touching thing, is the second phase of the accession to the throne. In the first-Sokui-the enthronement, it is the divine ruler; in the second Daijosia-it is the great pastor, the supreme husbandman, who reverences the fruitful soil whence spring the rice and millet on which the millions live from year to year. He eats of the sacred rice, and offerings of products of shore and sea are there before him. Gold and silk, lacquer and embroidery shining weapons, stately banners, gor- geous vestments and flashing uniforms glow and coruscate around the en- thronement but all is plain and sim pie, primeval almost in the Daijo-the blessing of the harvest tasting of the rice-for which the millions toll and from which the millions gather muscle and brain to uphold the glory of Japan.

with regiment and has, perhaps been in action before now
 Her cousin, the Hon. Mrs. John HuS bert Ward, was also a granddaughter and heiress of D. O. Mills. Mrs. Wards husband is also at the front. Marlborouehs Now Estranged.
 The Duchess of Marlborough Is in the peculiar position of paying a large tax because she married an English man, from whom she is estranged. Nevertheless, there is every reason to believe that the duchess is satisfied to be a member of English society, all though she can hardly enjoy the in- come tax.
 Lady Naylor Leyland, who was the beautiful Jennie Chamberlain of Cin- cinnati, enjoyed for many years the esteem and personal friendship of the late King Edward. She has had the sorrow of losing in the war her son, Sir Albert Edward Naylor- -Leyland named after the king. But she must continue to pay her income tax to the war monster.
 Mrs. Leeds Prefers Freedom.
 No one has enjoyed the delights of European social life more thoroughly than the beautiful Mrs. William B. Leeds, who inherited an enormous for tune from her late husband, accumu- lated in Rock Island ventures and the ''tin plate trust" Mrs. Leeds has been sought in marriage by the most at tractive and eligible princes and mo- blemen in Europe.
 Apparently she enjoyed the society of all of them, but she has obstinately preferred freedom and admiration% to the possession of a title. She has been aptly called the merry widow" She has millions and modesty," as one English admirer summed up her char acter. Now the terrible war, with it's crushing tax, has come to jar the se- renity of her socially ideal existence.
