This Internal Revenue department
has a. difficult problem to settle in the
case of 10 trained seals owned by HUI
bert winston, the noted California
trainer of sea-liens,
Under the new emergency revenue
act, taxing the salaries of all persons
over $1,000 in annual returns, it is
pFppesad to collect from Mr., Winston,
In a letter to J. j. Scott, collector Of
iHtssHa4 Sevenue at San Francisco,
Mr.. Winston has protested that the
SALARY paid and utilized exclusively
by the animals should not be deducted
frora i1i1R:

part upon the stage, as will readily
be seem at Polls where the act is now
p4aEing, NOT only does the work, but

snua department pays the salaries OF
a Yalet and naanicurist, amounting 20
more than $500 psF week,

vide that any other than a human be-
ing shall pay the tax. The question
to be settled therefore Is: Does a
seal have to pay the tax?'
The matter which Is now within the
jurisdiction of Collector J. ]. Walsh,
of this district, will be taken up upon
the arrival of WHnston's Sea Lions and
Diving Nymphs at Hartford where
they are soon to play an engagement.
In discussing the question at the Poll
theatre last night Mr.. Winston said:
"a seal has to be mantcured as well
as an elephant. Its nails are ex-
tremely sharp and unless cared for
become a source of great annoyance
to them"

WHAT WE WILL PAY

The $1,000, 100000 war bill means
that there is going to be tax bur-
den ON our shoulders. On per cap
ita apportionment, this means that
the 100000 citizens of the United
States would pay $40 each.
Bringing it closer home, nearly
three-quarters of a million dollars
would be Columbia's contribution.
No country in the world is better
able to meet such an obligation than
the United States. The comptroller
of currency in his annual report de-
clared that practically every other ma
tion on the globe is in debt to the
United States. He says that our
wealth is increasing almost incred-
IDLY. but adds that we may need ev-
cry dollar we have before the war
is over. He urges us to conserve our
resources. The Allies have already
spent a total of $4,000, 100000 in the
war.
1t remains for all to practice econ
Omy and conservation. We need not
stint ourselves, but we can forego
many of our expensive habits What
ever plan the Government adopts to
raise this huge sum, we can aid by
spending our money for necessities
only, as far as possible. We must
keep a closer watch on our purse
strings to enable this country to car
ry on war successfully, with the as
surance that there will be no demoral-
lied financial conditions at the ter
mination of the struggle.

PROHIBITION DOES PROHIBIT

The United States Internal Reve-
nue. Department has made public fig
ures which definitely and conclusively
dispose of one of the stock arguments
of the liquor interests-namely, that
prohibition does not prohibit and that
with the growth of dry territory the
consumption of liquor increases. Not
withstanding indications to the con-
trary on every hand, journals of the
liquor trade, anti-prohibition platform
orators and writer's of liquor publici-
ty articles reiterate the statement
that legislation has not had, and never
will have, any effect upon the amount
of liquor consumed. The figures Civ
en- out by the internal revenue depart
ment show that the revenue tax on
spirituous liquors is decreasing at the
rate of s1.25O,OOO a year. These fig
ures should effectively dispose of the
contentious of the liquor interests.

NOW Is THE TINE

The Y. NJ. c. A. campaign is making
its last round. TOday's contributions
to the Association brought the mark
to within $1,700 of its goal, but there
is only one more day in which to
work. Every citizen and student in
Columbia is benefited somehow
through the influence of this organi-
cation, but unless every person really
does bring forward his bit at this
crucial time the success of the cam
paign is doubtful. The time to act is
now! Will you do you part?

In 1915 this country produced &c.
900 tons of cabbage; last year the
yield was only 247 900 tons. The po-
tato crop fell from $4,000, 900 bushels
to 2S5,O00,00O. The supply of potatoes
still unconsumed is only A per cent
OF what it was a year ago and only 81
per cent of the average amount in re-
serve at this date during the last five
years. Such figures as these should
stimulate the American to increased
production.
