BY HENRY r. STRONG,
OF 81 ouis-

Instead of taxing only the following
industries and thereby raising Sl1S.-
100000. as now proposed by Congress,
namely. on automobiles tires and
tubes, musical instruments, motion
picture films. iewelry, sporting goods
pleasure boats, perfumes and toilet
articles, proprietary medicines and
chewing gum. increased postal rates
and tax on advertising.
| suggest a tax Of one per cent. q
per cent? on the net earnings on al
kinds Of products manufactured IN
this country, the total value Of which
as shown by the World Almanac OF
1917 was in 1914 S24.241 1913 900. For
1917 this amount will reach nearly 80
billions. say It will be 25 billions. one
per cent OF this would yield $3.50. 600
600. or nearly double the amount tile
present Congressional. plan would
raise.
This one per cent tax on all manu-
featured products would be burden
some TO none and cOnstitutionally
just Food stuffs might be eliminated
II desired, but one per cent. is a small
tax as compared with what the con
sumer is accustomed to pay.
This one per cent tax would be
absorbed by the manufacturers and Il
would, therefore, not disturb trade

HOW THE DRAFT
Will WORK HIRE.


WILL WORK HERE.
From the Elkton Wing.
The local exemption boards will be
granted extensive powers.
OF the men chosen a physical OK
animation as well as answers to GER
tain questions such as employment,
dependent relatives, etc, would be
required. In some cases the exemp-
tons would be automatically made by
the local board In others exemptions
would have to be applied for.
Secretary Baker believes that it
would be a mistake to announce that
all agricultural workers or munitions
employees or iabOrers in other trades
were to he exempted from military
service. Every business would be
able TO prove in these days of social
completely that it was related to the
national defenseA Few industries are
not But the generalities in the CON
scrlption law permit the application
OF cOmmon-sense rules. Common
sense, indeed. will be the principle
applied. and therefore every man can
determine after being drafted exactly
whether ne IS to be called TO military
service byNtae following reasoning in
the following case cited by a high
War Department Official:
Suppose q farmer has a big acre
age and always has had one son to
assist him. or really to help manage
his business. Now, the local eXemp-
ton board would know that case
thoroughly. They would know that to
take away that son would hurt the
productiveness Of that farm. and
thereby the nations food supply. But
suppose the man had two or three
sons. and the local board knew that
the farmer could spare one or posi-
bly, two of them. and stiil turn over
a big crop. that there were men above
the military age who were available
to take the sons places. and that IA
Dor had been plentiful In that sec
ton. Il would be unwise to make ex-
emptlons in that case But 1t might
be that labor was scarce and that the
farm could not be managed If the
boys were taken away. The local
board would have power TO make any
exemption deemed necessary 10 keep
the farms manned"
The possibility of calling for a sec
ond increment OF half a million IS a
remote one. Il will take probably n
year for the first half million 10 be-

army and navy and the sale offLiber-

The persistency with which the
various government departments and
other agencies, having the same OBJ
lect IN view, have solicited free space
in the newspapers for the exploitation
of the governments needs in rgen and
money. has been the most "pitiless"
imaginable
Advertising space Is the only com
modify the newspaper has TO sell. and
the appeal to the editors patriotism
has resulted in securing from 10 TO so
per cent OF their advertising space,
gratis. At the same time the govern
ment has been paying enormous
prices for all the other merchandise
needed by the various departments.
The Tribune has contributed iiber-
ally in advertising space to the Liber-
~ Bond campaign Many thousands OF
dollars have been spent in the effort
to feat these bonds, but the news
papers, which made the effort a sue
cess, received none OF 1t.
The recruiting department has been
and is still using the newspapers
gratis for the work Of enlistment In
, this department also large amount
OF money is being expended in other
directions. while the patriotism Of the
newspapers IS ''pitilessly'' insisted
upon as sufficient incentive for their
service.
Last Saturday we received a very
cordial letter OF thinks from the
Liberty Loan Department expressing
appreciation OF our service IN behalf
OF the Bond Issue. We congratulated
ourselves that one department had
accomplished its work and that the
demand for gratuitous advertising
would be lessened that much. In the
next mail. however. we received the
initial request from the Hoover Food
