Chicago Post: Germany is trading
She is trying to buy peace without
losing her war booty.
She will seek To make dicker all
through the coming winter. She will
first offer to trade in" that which is
not essential to her victory. yet which
her foes regard as the first necessity
for peace. 1t is something. too, that
is being taken away from her by armed
force. and something that she has
drained so dry that its further posses
sion is liability.
1t is Belgium.
Germany does not need Belgium for
victory. though she may stage Won Tir-
pitt to enhance the value of her trading
pawn by saying so. Germany needs
the middle European strip from Sweden
to Mesopotamia, in order tn win the
war. And she has that strip now. With
il she can go back to her fake peace
of forty years" and build n new an
irresistible attack on the world.
Sensing this, we can understand the
fundamental unimportance of the vague
offer to give up Belgium" officially
attributed yesterday to the German for
eign minister.
The offer was again conditional"
The reported guarantees of true Bel
gian neutrality in the future may
mean anything up TO permanent oc-
cupation by a Prussian garrison. The
basis for German economic develop
ment at Antwerp" may also mean any.
thing up TO German annexation. The
declaration that the kingdom must be
split into Flemish and Wailoon sec.
tions is another sign of what Belgian
freedom" means in the dishonest mind
OF Prussian autocracy. On top of all
this the alleged Offer was made "ver.
bally" and not made to any of the con-
tending powere.
In plain words the German offer to
quit Belgium, though IL is as Inevitable
as day following night. has not yet
been made.

AMERICA AND TERRORISM >,

Washington Star In the course oi
his speech before the main committee
OF the German reichstag Chancellor
Michaelis said:
In the United States the government
attempted by all methods. even By un
paralleled terrorism, to stir up war en-.
thusiasm. which had hitherto been
non-existent among the wide masses. "
Just what the chancellor means by
this and to what period he refers is
not clear. IL cannot be in reference
10 the raids and arrests Just conducted
by the government in New York and
Chicago. which are OF too recent oc.
currence TO have been known TO the
chancellor when he made his speech.
There has been nothing in the nature
OF terrorism" in this country The
government has at no time attempted
by any process of agitation 10 foment
a war feeling. Germany has done in.
iinitely more to stir up war enthusiasm
In the United States than has the
American administration. Germany's
own acts in 1914 sent a flame of in
dignation running through the Ameri-
can people, and that flame has never
died. When at last at the end of Jan.
uary, 1917. the government at Berlin
announced its intention TO begin un.
restricted submarine warfare the Amer
lean people with very few exceptions
demanded a break of relations with
Germany, even though it involved hos.
tilities. The real telTorism in the Unit.
ed States has been that of the anti.war
propagandists, the iirebrand pacifists
and the plotters against the peace and
security OF the people, who have gone
to all lengths to oppose the war and
TO cripple the American measures for
its prosecution. II the German chan
cellor is well informed of American
conditions he is simply in statements
of this kind seeking to delude the peo-
pie of Germany into a belief that the
| nited States government itself forced
this country into war, in an effort to
Offset the American charge that the
government ut Berlin forced
war upon Europe without consulting
the wishes of the German people
themselves. III the chancellor is not
well posted the conclusion follows that
his agencies of Information. once so
numerous and SO reliable, are no longer
effective.

THE INCOME TAX MUDDLE.

The new income tax law may be
all right as n revenue-producer. But
AZ "a statement of what people are ex'
pected to pay the government out Of
their yearly incomes. the best that can
b. said for It IL that II is as clear as
mud. The more II is explained. the less
the general public understands II.
The confusion arises from the fact
that there are now two income tax
laws in force instead of one. The new
law was merely superimposed on the
law enacted last year. Each In itself is
confusing enough. Combined. they re.
quire the services OF the traditional
Philadelphia lawyer to untangle them.
The old law has its particular set Of
exemptions. its normal tax" for mod.
crate incomes and its progressive sur
tax rates for large incomes. The new
law has three similar sets of provis-
ions, differing at nearly every point.
The two complex systems have to be
combined and harmonized before any
citizen finds out what he is expected
TO pay on his income. The difficulty
may be seen from the fact that experts
themselves don't agree about the work
iag OF the plan. Many current tables
meant TO elucidate the matter vary in
their conclusions. How. then. can the
non-expert be expected 10 figure il
out?
The government will no doubt pro-
vide, sooner or later, a dependable table
showing the payment required on in
comes of various size, and reducing the
work of figuring exemptions to as sim
pie a plan as possible. But it will be
puzzling at best. Why couldn't con.
gress have repealed the old law. and
given us one income tax system in
stead OF two?
