WHAT MORE ID TAX
 IS PROBLEM ID BE SOLVED IN BRITAIN
Financial Heads Are Study ing Every Suggestion Made to Raise More
 Money for War

London. December 1-(Correspond- ence of the Associated Press )-What can we tax next? is the question which financial advisers of the government are puzzling over as the time draws near for next years budget. With the cost of the war steadily mounting, any proposal that bids fair to realize a few thousand pounds per year without in justice to individuals and without in- creased cost of collection is worth careful scrutiny The new French tax on all who buy eXtravagant meals at cafes and restaurants is being favor ably watched from the English side of the channel and al the same time even the smallest existing items of public revenue are being examined to see if they can be made to yield more.
 writer in the Economist suggests a revision of the numerous license duties other than liquor licenses. For example, manufacturer of wood al eohol now pays an annual license of FLO 10 shillings. while manufacturer of petrol or gasoline only pays fl. The number of firms involved is less than S0,' says the writer, "but it is believed that they could safely stand considerable increase in charges. A similar increase is possible in the case of dealers in these commodities. AL most as much more could be obtained by increasing the licensing fees for selling patent medicines from , shill- ings to a pound. These licenses, more over, are at present collected only in Great Britain. and could be extended without great injustice to Ireland as well.
 Tt must be said" writes another tax expert, that so small an annual duty as shillings ought never to have been imposed for any purpose The cost of collecting such sum once year is altogether out of proportion to the revenue secured. Even the dog tax, which at the present rate of Is 6d ($1.S5) yields nearly f750,000 year ly, could certainly be increased without appreciable hardship"
 The present license fee charged for dealers in tobacco is 5s Sd per year. It is proposed to increase this to fl. representing an increase in revenue of nearly f300,O00.
 A doubling of license fees is rec

Europe Values Our Good Will

From America and Europe: Now and
 After the War" by Elmer Roberts, in
 the January Scribner
 The American in Europe feels the al most poignant solicitude of the fighting peoples as to what his countrymen think ab out the war. The belligerents long for the approval of neutrals and, above all for that of the United States. Any indi- cation of good will is received with 8 satisfaction far deeper than the American at home would believe likely. Even mod crate criticism cuts harshly into the deli cate sensibilities of the period. The emo tions, the intensities of effort, the exal- tations, the sorrows, and the memories O. irrevocable lives rise mist between the European and a clear conception of our relation to the war-and all the more as Americans often seem in doubt them selves. Here in these great European communities the feelings, the intellects, and the wills of the continental peoples are mobilized as universally as are phy- sical bodies to attain national aim. Pri- vate interest has shrunk into the collec- tive interest. Therefore to the Euro pean, penetrated with his own national aspirations, it seems odd that he cannot discern plainly national consciousness upon the issues for which he is fight ing.
 The upper level of French intellect and statesmanship, although puzzled often by American policy, is not disposed to crit icise it strongly Explanations even are made for American attitudes on the sev- eral questions that have come up. But the average Frenchman who doesn't know much about us has been disappoint- ed. His knowledge of the United States is sketchy. He knows that in achieving independence and a republic we had French aid He knows the names of Washington, Lafayette and Franklin. The Civil War in the United States was, he thought, a war for human liberty in stead of war for unification. Without thinking a great deal about it the French man assumed that Americans were ideal ists. He says now that he was mistaken. that we are not idealists and do not care deeply about anything except our safety and the prosperity in aloofness.

MILLIONAIRES ONLY
 SHOULD PERUSE THIS
But if You Have a Million Dollars
 and Kind Heart, Halt

If your coffer does not contain million round and shining dollars. kindly pass this story by.
 Just why my individual should think the members of The Age Herald reportorfal staff should know, or ever had known. the whereabouts of Jumps of the al- turing metal. is beyond human ken. And inasmuch as J. B. Durham, who ayers that he is resident of Bryant, Ark. is seemingly de- sirous of knowing who has money and it is tour aim to please" this article has been written with deep and mysterious motive.
 The aforementioned wight, who, as aforesaid, lives fin Arkansas, is up to some project. At any event, he wants to correspond or assO- ciate with milIiOnaires. He has written The AGe-Herald pleading "PIease send me the names Of loO men In the United States that are worth over s1,00O,0O and give me their aO0rebs.
 Innsmuch as it is generally be- Heved that there isn't million dollars in the wOrld-that is, con crete evidence is lacking and has been lacking to a chronic state this note is addressed to kind- hearted miIIionaires that they may inform MT. Durham of their finan- ciaI status--provided, they are opuIent to the extent of some mil- lion shekeIs-and thus enable him to have his wish fulfilled.
 Incidentally, J. B. is willing to pay for the trouble of anyone. Memory of man runneth not to the contrary when such an extraOrdi- nary declaration was received. It can be recalled when one fnquisi- tive soul asked the complete list of Brigham YOung's wives and children. and another begged for a symposium on how to rear child scientifically, but never when any of them was willing to pay for the information.
 But J. II. states positively that "I will pay you what you charge for the troubIe."
 So, if you are the possessOr of a million bucks, pass the news on to J. B.
