ARGUMENTS AGAINST REPORT.
1t Is the invariable practice of the
National Chamber in submitting a
referendum hSfr Of he
arguments against the committee re-
port. The main heads of arguments
in the case in question are: (a) The
report indicates it is desirable to
raise through taxation a large sum
for the initial budget of war expen-
diture. Against this position it can be
fairly argued that the tendency of tax
alton which in large part falls upon
production, whether by individuals or
by modern business units, is contrary
to present national interest OBJ
Large initial additions to taxation will
lead to subsequent difficulties IL the
war continues for any considerable
period (c) Taxation should not be
for social and economic, and especially
not in time of war.
OPPOSED TO EXCESS PROFITS.
The universal sentiment of the bus
that few should not be permitted to
profit greatly by the war at the ex-
pense of many. the committee de-
clares. Industry owing to large prof
its secured during the last two years
is in an uncommonly strong position
and able to bear its full taxation.

gance: war taxation leads to econ

to the best advantage. The world is
face to face with the greatest food
shortage Of all time and in this way the
farmers of Idaho may be able to per-
form a very patriotic service to. our
country by increasing crop acreage.
Professor Alfred Atkinson of the
Montana State college states that il
the world is to be fed, the northwestern
states must increase their acreage. 1t
requires 665,000.000 bushels of wheat
to feed the people of the United States.
In 1915 we produced over a billion
bushels. The winter wheat situation is
practically the same all over the Uni
ted States. Latest reports indicate a
shortage of 270,000,000 bushels below
normal. hence we must increase our
spring wheat acreage as far as the
season will permit.
HAVE YOU ANSWERED THE CALL?
The country needs you! Not neces-
sarily at the battle front, but join the
army of producers. You may be of far
more service in the agricultural field
than the battlefield. Are you making
a special effort to increase our supply
of food? If you are not direct pro-
Queer, then assist some one else in
growing a crop. In this hour of need
we must all make some sacrifices in
order that the war may be quickly and
su cessfully terminated.

PER DIEM WORKER ASKS
FOR SHARE IN HIGHER PAY
Suggests Congress Vote Extra
Months Salary Immediately to
Relieve High Price Pinch.

Government employees on the per
diem or piecework basis have been
overlooked in the movement to have
Congress increase salaries. according
to one of these men, who says that the
per diem employees are just as hard hit
by high prices as those on regular
salary He estimates that nearly half
of the employees here are on the per
diem basis, and suggests the appropri-
alton of an extra months salary i'm
mediately.
Now, it has occurred to me-" he says.
that If Congress desires to do some
thing in keeping with what seems to
be the spirit of the times and does not
want to make permanent increases in
salaries ii would be much more help
full to all who need the help if it would
vote us an additional months pay in a
lump sum. payable Immediately.

and right now is the time we need re-

called 'Woolworth' bill @ and 10 per
cent increases for one year only, to
become effective after July l nexD it is
possible that the situation calling for
remedial measures may have cleared
up very much before one dollar is re-
ceived by any one benefited by it.
Those employees of the government
who receive the } and 10 per cent in
creases will be very loath to have same
terminated at the end of the period
provided, and will doubtless importune
Congress to have same made perma-
nent whereas a lump sum payment Of

helpful and would not subject the mem
bers of Congress to the opportunities
