GREAT OPPORTUNITY
MILITARY TRAINING

I have the authorization of the
United States War Department to offer
to the men of Wisconsin what is lit
orally the opportunity Of lifetime
nor of one-life-time only, but OF a
dozen e-times, for the equal OF this
invitation has never happened before
in the history of this country, or per-
haps of any country in the world, and
in all probability will never happen
again.
This is none other than the urgent
request of the government of the Unit
ed States, asking it's ablest young men
to accept, gratis, at the hands OF the
government, such training as will fit
them for the honorable position of Of
ficers in the new United States army
of 100000 or a million men, now be-
fng formed.
In view of that call there is upon us
the urgent need for providing, in the
very shortest possible space Of time,
men capable of acting as officers in
every department of that new force
i'm the infantry, cavalry, field artillery,
the engineers and the coast artillery
corps. Not less than ten thousand
such new officers are needed. They
must be ready for that duty in less
than four months from this hour. The
plan whereby they may be, and will be
secured, is now ready, and it is that
plan, and your participation therein
taat am here to place before you.
From Tuesday, the 8th day of May,
to May IA, there will be open at the
great government post of TT. Sheridan,
just north of Chicago, military train
ing camp for the training of candidates
for commissions as officers in the Of
fcers' reserve. This camp will last
hree months, or until August 8th
| next. At it's close its attendant candl-
| lates will be given an examination,
| and all who successfully pass that
test of their work will be commission
ed as officers of the United States re-
serve officers corps, from which will
be drawn the officers of the great new
army that will be awaiting them.
| The attendants at this camp, which
is designed for men from wisconsin
Michigan and Illinois-othe men from
other states going elsewhere-mus be
on May Ia, over the age of twenty
years and nine months, and under
their forty-ffth birthday They mus
be physically fit for the often arduou:

MUCH MONEY
FROM LICENSES

More automobile licenses have been
issued thus far this year than were
Issued during all of last year. The
total number of license tags sent out
by the state department at the close
of business last week was $4,000.
Last year the total number was about
1000 less The total revenues from
the license, including those for deal
ers and for motorcycles is already in
excess of $600,000 The applications
for licenses are still coming in large
numbers. Many of these are for new
cars, but there are a number of old
cars which have not been licensed,
though the greater portion Of them
soon will be, as the rush season Is
nearly over, and cars running with
out license tags for this year are like
ly to cause trouble to their owners.
It is orobable that the total number
of licenses will run close to the 15O,-
600 mark before the year Is out. Next
year the license fee will be $40, thus
doubling the revenues from motor ve-
hicles.

Tax Bill Raises
Storm Of Protest
al WaSK7inQtOn
Manufacturers and Others Appear
Before the Senate Committee to
Register Complaints; House
Takes up Act

While the house debate on the ST.
SO0,OOO,0O0 war tax bill was getting
under way on Friday at Washington,
the senate finance committee heard
violent protests from big and little in
terests Oil which the new war levies
would fall.
Manufacturers who would have to
pay the increased excess profits tax,
distillers, brewers and soda fountain
interests, affected by the higher rate
on alcoholic and soft drinks, and to-
bacco companies, hit by the tobacco
tax, all told the senate committee that
they faced ruin if the bill went through
as presented in the house. Nearly ev-
cry witness declared his particular
business seemed to have been made
the target for an unjust and exorbi-
tant tax. The house will take up the
act.
Deny Threats Made
It was admitted that number Of
board of trade members had been sum-
moned to the office of the federal dis
trict attorney during the day. but it
was said no threats had been made or
intimated. It also was s,dmitted that
government agents had been in the
trading pit Of the board for several
days taking notes on the trades.
'sThe board of directors were
prompted in reaching their conclu-
sions by what they deemed to be their
patriotic duty to the country in this
hour of national stress said Joseph
P. Griffin, president of the board OF
trade.
"True, this action is without prece-
dent in the history of this exchange,
although other exchanges in this coun-
try have taken similar action. 1t
should be understood that the board
of trade is neither a buyer nor a sell
ler: it is merely market place where
meet daily the millions of producers
and consumers throughout the coun-
try.
