LIBERTY BONDS ARE SAFEST
ALL BoNDe FREE FROM NORMAL
TAX.
Five Thousand Dollar Investment Ex-
empt from All Tax Except
inheritance.

The Second Liberty LOANS, ,OOO,-
OOO, ,OOO-is receiving the hearty sup
port and cooperation Of the citizens OF
the Eighth Federal Reserve District.
The Liberty Loan Organizauon, in
charge of the pl2ciny Of the allotment
of the Eighth Federal reserve District,
has been frI 6ed to explain
the eXemptil 0OO-inVestment.
Not the least important feature Of
the new $El.50o, 100000 bond issue.
which Is the Difgcst piece of financing
legislation il the worlds history, is
the tax statl!2 of the new bonds. Some
important hankers believe that the
combination of per cent and eX-
emption from all taxes of the interest
on $4,000 Of the bonds in themselves
guarantee the success Of the sale.
The interest on bonds owned in eX
cess of 5000 of principal is likewise
exempt from normal income taxes, but
the supertaXcs apply on holdings above
$4,000, provided the holders total tax
able income places him in the super
tax class. The owner Of $4,000 of the
bonds, would therefore pay no tax on
the first $3.50 Of interest, but the sec
ond 5000 might be subject to super
taxes. In other words the amount of
interest over and above 5000 from the
bonds becomes general income, in the
same category as dividends on stocks,
subject to The ascending scale of su-
pertax rates which begin at $4,000.
ITO the email subscriber the bonds
will be entirely exempt from all taxes.
Having no other income an investor
can purchase as much as $130,000 of
the new bonds without paying any in,
come tax This means annual inter
est of $5,200. The first $500 is en-
tirely exempt and the remaining $4,000
not being above the supertaX limit, is
likewise ncn-taXable. Of course this
lis an extreme example, and is predi-
!cated upon the receipt Of no other
income"
"a government bond is the safest
investment IN the world; it is as good
las currenc- and yet better, because
the government bond bears interest
and currency does not. No other in
lvestment compares with it for safety,
ready conycrtibility into cash. and
unquestioncli availability as collateral
security for loans in any bank in the
United States. Secretary McAdoo.

THE WHATCHAMA COLUMN
By George Martin

We are tired of being idiotic. It's
so blithering silly.
One can be entertainingly brainles3
up to certain point, but beyond that
one is merely annoying.
We had thought today to diagnose
the toy TERROR, that nickel's worth OF
dog with a million-dollar pedigree,
which wags a warped lead pencil on
one end and sports nervous nose on
the other. But that did not appeal to
us.
Then we considered the porcupine;
and figured out a fetching line about
his being the original apostle Of pre-
paredness because he trains his hair
for home defence. But we tried 1t on
the office boy, and he didn't laugh, so
we set that subject aside. We tried
some other things, but they were just
as useless.
There are times when even pro-
fessional fool can't do a good Job OF
it

THE PRESIDENTS CALL.

A meager handful of United States Senators have
made necessary President Wilson to call Congress
into extra session. The announcement has been MADE
that the president calls the session for April l6th
and along with proclamation statement that
the chief executive has the right the merchant
ships
President Wilson's constitutional right through law
and custom to arm ships has been denied by the
masses of the people They felt the great president
did-t would be well to secure the endorsement, and
permission even authority. There is little doubt but
that the new Congress which assemble next month
will promptly authorize the president to arm merchant
ships for defensive purposes although 1t is sincerely
hoped that the executive will proceed Immediately 40
perform this necessary function.
The semi-cloture rule of the Senate driven home
because of the national focus Washington rule OF
hundred years standing has been partially destroyed
and unlimited debate will more clog the wheels OF
government unless class of doubtful senators gain
control viz LaFollette, Stone & CO. (Ltd) The Senate
discusses in varied unlimited authority OF the
President and Senator'S urge that blank check be
given Mr. Wilson On the other hand they desire to
preserve the right for everlasting CAB through unlimited
debate Laws of reason, temperance and consistency
demand that there should be limit to all things.
One main purpose for the call of the extra session
was to provide appropriations and fer conduct
ing the government for the year. beginning July 1st.
The international situation will go long way towards
simplifying organization of the House Party lines
have almost been obterated of late and the fair man
ner which Champ Clark has presided assures him Of
reelection for the senate there will be little trou-
BILE request from the people for the Senate Demo
stone chairman of the foreign relations
committee and especially in view of the that he says
he will be retained
Congress has about reached the stage where people
look upon it as a necessary evil. President Wilson is

The Public
Safety ValOe
Plan Of Universal Peace.

Editor Times-Recorder:
We have had The Hague court, but
no officers or power to enforce the
laws of the court, therefore The
Hague was a farce.
We have seen that peace treaties
amount to nothing, and thrown to the
wind as a scrap of paper"
NV proposition is to re-establish
The Hague court and make it the
Supreme court of the world and court
of last resort.
Establish district courts In different
sections of the world for convenience
OF nations from which appeal may be
made to the Hague or Supreme court.
Establish an Universal Commission
the membership to be made up from
all the nations of the world.
Every nation shall deliver up their
ravies to this commission and have
no authority to distate to this COM
mission in any way whatsoever.
This universal commission shall be
absolutely supreme and shall do the
police power of the world, protect
commerce at sea. enforce the laws OF
the court, and force all nations to
submit their grievances to the court.
No nation shall own any battle
ships or build any battleships except
small ships for their own domestic
purposes.
Establish an international legisla-
tive body to be made up from all ma
lions of the world.
No nation to be allowed to keep
any standing army, but every nation
keep Its militia intact, which shall be
subject to this universal commission
In case of land trouble between ma
tions.
This commission shall have moth
ing to do with internal troubles of
any nation or it's colonies unless
called upon.
Every nation shall be assessed its
pro-rata share of the up-keep of the
combined navies and the expenses oil
the commission and court. Every
small nation would then be as safe az
the large ones and no nation would DO
allowed to trespass on the other.
If several of the large nations
would unite in the above combine
they can force all others to dismantle
their ships and join them.
This is simply a basis for develop
ing the great plan of Universal peace
No league will amount to anything SO
long as nations are allowed to own
their navies.
All surplus battleships not needed
by this Universal Commission would
be converted into commercial ships
and the sea would be alive with
commerce, and the world could have
no more war. J. K. MCCALL,
