Not all of the best models for mid
summer show frills and nounces,
however. There are dresses without

are pervaded by a deep sense Of rest.
The skirts are full for ease, but there

INCOME TAX-BasiI Manly's ar
ticles reveal the essential iniquity
in our system of getting public rev.
enUe and also indicate the impOssi-
bility of getting any great revenue
in that way without establishing a
despOtic system that will make Coy
eminent even more corrupt than it is
now.
Why should a mans income be
taxed? If it is honestly earned he is
entitled to use it for his own with
out tax or diminution from any
cause. Anything else is pure rob-
berry. If it is dishonesty gotten, the
laws and conditions should be
changed so the dishonesty cannot be
practiCed.
To allow Unearned incomes to
exist is a social crime. So the very
principle on which the income tax
is founded is dishonest.
To allow individuals to get wealth
by robbery and then tax the pro-
ceeds away from, them is to encOur-
age robbery 1t is a crime that cor
rupts the individual and coTupts the
machinery of government.
The foul source of unearned in
comes is plainly in view. It exists
in the special privileges granted by
law.
The principal source of all IN
earned incomes consists of ground
rents. This rObs government of its
rightful income and compels govern
ment to rob the working and pro-
ducing forces of society of their
earnings by all sorts of infamous
taxes. 1t also robs the people of
their equal right to the use Of the

SOCIALISM AND CHRISTIE is
too bad that there are people in the
world who do not know that the
ethical teaching of Jesus and the
fundamental doctrines of socialism
are one and the same. Socialism is a
world movement for brotherhood,
the kind Of brotherhood Jesus
taught
Preaching socialism is preaching
Jesus, whether the name Of Jesus
be mentioned or not, and, likewise,
preaching the true Jesus is preach
ing socialism, whether the word So

The highest service any one can
render his fellow beings is the seek
ing to secure for them the full pro-
duct of their labor and thereby abol-
ishing poverty.
The spirit of Jesus is not dead.

DREW IS REAL "COME BACK"
IN SMASHING TRACK MARKS
California Star Recov-
ers Form in Sprints
After Two Serious
BreakdOWnS

No sprinter ever broke down so COM
pletely and yet recovered to break so
many records as Howard Drew. of the
University OF Southern California, who
equaled the worlds indoor mark for the
7O-yard dash in New York on Wednes-
day. Drew has suffered two serious in
recovery he has smashed worlds rec
ords.
Drew's first breakdown at the Olympia
games in 1912 put him out of the running
game for nearly a year, but he recuper-
ated and early I'm 1914 cqualcd the worlds
record of 3-5 seconds for the 100 yards
and 81 l-5 seconds for the 220 yards. His
breakdown at Stockholm was serious, for
even so clever a coach as Mike Murphy
thought Drew would never be able to run
again, because very few sprinters pull
tendons and then come back.
Drew broke down again last summer,
but he Is himself once more. as he proved
when he beat LoOmis and Morse in the
special 7O-yard dash. He says he is going
10 retire from the cinder path this year,
but If he keeps In shape physically the
chances are that the lure Of racing will
keep him in the game for some time to
come.
In spite of his great work within the
last two years IL is doubtful II Drew
will ever again be in the condition he
was at Stockholm prior to his break
down. Mike Murphy predicted that had
Drew not pulled tendon in his pre-
heat that summer, he would
have put the worlds record for the 100
metres so low that 1t would not have
been broken again in years.
Murphy proved this by the fact that
