WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-Miss
Jeanette Rankin is anticipating that
vengeance of all sorts is going to be
visited upon her by the Anaconda

Rankin was filled with dire forebod-

II think I know perfectly we'll what

Miss Rankin said. They'll try to do to
me just what they have done to every
one who ever tried to oppose them in

state. They own the government.
They own the press
First I'll be roasted from one end
of the state to the other. Every news
paper will print my shortcomings, real
or fancied, in the largest type in the

ably won't assassinate me, because

The $1,000,ooo,0o0 anticipation is
based on the new 80 per cent tax now

There has been some argument
against making the tax as high as 80
per cent" said the informant. ION the
ground that it would discourage en-

pose. The objections came from the
orists rather than from the business
men themselves, however.
Earlier in the war the government
took only so per cent Of excess pro-
fits The increase to: the. point where
only 20 per cent is left to the business

planned, "that these concerns are al

above their peace time profits they
may retain only 20 per cent of the in

NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-There are
indications that organized labor and
organized farmers, tired Of halfway
high cost of living, are today in pro-
cess of getting together for a mighty
drive against the fundamental causes.
With all their sacrifices and all
their struggles to build up strong
unions, about the best that even the
most fortunate of American wage
earners can do is to keep the margin
between wages and the cost of living
from narrowing or disappearing en-
tirely.
AS for the farmers, the prevailing
high prices for food are for the most
part confiscated by men who monopo-
lie the transportation and market
ing machinery. And If some of the
increased price does reach the pro-
Queer, it is paid out again in exor-
bitant prices for seed, farm ma
chinery, shoes. and clothing.
From organized labor has just come
