The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1917-04-07

I It is significant that Wall street is
against the pay-as-we-go proposition
and strong for bonds.
Wall street realizes that to the eX-
tent that incomes are taxed and war
profits limited, to just that extent
will stock speculation during the war
be unpopular as a pastime.
AS an indication of Wall streets
state of mind, the following is quoted
from the private wire of one of the
big brokerage houses: y
This pay-as-we-go war tax talk
is rot, but temporarily is having a
market effect. OurWar like an other
modern wars will have to be paid for
principally by bond issues, which will
be gradually retired in time of
peace"
Another Wall street broker sent
the following over his private wire
Tuesday:
There has been a lot Of loose talk
today about fixing prices on steel
and other commodities which the
government will have to use and
about paying for the war by taxation
as we go, which will be appreciated
before long as economic impossible
ties and absurdities. Paying for any
but a small part of the war by taxa
ton as we go is another fantastic
dream from which we will wake up
in the near future. However, it is a
nightmare that has been bothering
speculation today"
Do you get the full meaning Of
that last sentence? The mere sug-
gestiOn that we pay for the war as
we go by taxing the incomes of the
rich and well-to-do is a nightmare
that bOthers speculation.
APPROPRIATE

WALL STREET SHIVERS.-ShaH
it be a pay-as-we-go war or a Dor
rOWed money war?
ANpay-as-we-go war involves big
increases in income taxes, even to
the point of COnfscatiQn, for war
purposes of all incomes over $4,000
and tax of from to so per cent on,
all incomes from $500 to $4,000.
This would mean that the enor-
nous cost of the war would fall on
those best able to bear the burden.
A borrowed money war means bill
lions of bonds, enormous initiation,
higher and higher prices.
So far as we are concerned, we are
convinced both of the justice and
wisdom of paying for the war as we
go by taxing the incomes of the rich
and well-tO-dO.
Whatever bonds it is necessary to
issue. to raise money quickly should
be short term bOnds-twO or three
years at the Iongest-to be retired
as fast as the money from the in
come tax becomes available.
AS has been frequently pointed out
in this paper, few if any milionaires
or multi-milliOnaires are young
enough to be Of service as soldiers,
and in this war for democracy every
American must do his bit. Our con
ception of universal service is that
those who are best able to fight
should fight and those who are best
able to pay should pay.

buted thru the tissues. The choices
sites for such storage are in the Joints,
muscle-sheaths, where the circulation
is weakest, and where also the alkalin-
ity OF the blood is lowest. Conse-
quently we must do everything ia
throw off this uric acid poison, and
simple methods are best. Flush the
kidneys by drinking 8 to 8 glasses Of
water between meals. A pint Of hot
water a half hour before meals.
Take Anuric double or tripls

| During winter months the circulation
is apt TO be sluggish and the blood

This accounts for many acute condi-
tions, such as headache, neuralgia,
gastric disturbances, and dull mind.
As the condition progresses, we often
have lpmbago, disease OF the heart

you will be free from uric acid and
