Proposed to Place the En-
tire Financial Burden of
the Conflict Upon Persons
With Incomes of More
Than $1,000 a Year.

New York, March 31.-The strong
est pacifist influence in America to-
day suddenly turned from efforts to
prevent war to means of financing it,
simultaneously it became known
that a plan put forward by the Ameri-
can committee on war finance. head
I'd by Amos Pinchot, to place the en-
tire financial burden of the war upon
persons with incomes of more than
$4,000 per year has been Endorsed in
high government circles.
HOPE FOR PEACE DEAD.
The greatest significance was placed
upon the sudden action of leading pa
eifists because of belief that they
were In close communication with
Washington leaders. While they. in
sisted that they still hoped" for peace,
their actions indicated that the hope"
ts practically dead.
The committee in its announcement
today pointed out that the heavy death
toll of war will be upon the working
people Of the country because of their
greater numbers.
with this In view, II calls for sigma
lures to q pledge to demand legisla-
ton for . special war income tax on
ell incomes over $4,000. The schedule
calls for q tax OF IN per cent on all
incomes from $1,000 to $4,000 per year.
SLIDING SCALE.
On an incomes over $4,000 a sliding
scale beginning at 10 per cent and ris-
ing to q point that will permit no
individual to retain more than a net
income 70 more than 100000 per year,
n proposed.
The pledge further calls for legisla-
ton limiting net profit on all war sup
plies to Sh per cent and provides that
mo wholesale or retail dealer shall sell
foodstuffs or other necessities at a
profit greater than per cent during
the war.
I'VE do not believe that any real pa
triot wants the poor people of the ma
ton to bear the burden OF the cost
Of war, in addition to the burden of
fighting" said Pinchot today Our
committee is not made up of peace
At-any-price people and there is no
one connected with tn movment who
has any German sympathies. Our pro-
posal is simply predicted on the ma
tons experience in past wars and is
based on the belief that in the event
OF war there should be genuine
partnership in patriotism between the
working people who will be asked to
volunteer their lives and the wealthy
who will be called upon to give their
dollars.
SINKING FUND FOR PENSIONS.
The proposal may even furnish
more money than is needed to finance
the war. Any surplus logically could
be used as a sinking fund for pen
sions
IAN idea of what such an emergency
law would do can be seen in the case
of the Du Pont family, popularity re-
ported to have an annual income of
3S0.o0o.ooo. Taking out 100000 81
lowance for each of the 10 or so mem
bers of the family, would leave a net
return to the government of approx
matly $7s.0o0,0 900 a year.
Recently we have been asked to
sign a meaningless pledge of loyalty to
the country, which was, in effect, an
insult to any real Americans patriot
ism. Here is q pledge that is some
thing more than empty words. 1t is
practical patriotism"

TRAPPING or MONKEYS EASY
Curiosity, Greed and Initiative Faculty
of Animals Furnish Vulnerable
Point of Attack.

When we see In the street an or
gan-grinder with his little red-capped
pet monkey, we seldom stop to think
of the animals native home or how it
was trapped. AS a matter of fact, the
monkey came from Asia, Africa or
South America. The aforementioned
have nostrils. widely separated where
as the old world monkeys have them
close with a narrow nasal septum.
One might readily imagine that the
trapping of monkeys is difficult OPP
Grafton. However, nothing could be
further from the truth than this n.y.
pothesis. Monkeys are easily caught,
not by heavily built traps, but by
sheer ingenuity and the simplest sort
of articles. A monkey has various vul-
nerable points of attack, so to speak !;
and these are cupidity, curiosity, COW
etousness or greed, and truly won
derful initiative faculty.
A trapper can take pair of boots
into the jungle, drop them down within
sight of a monkey and soon have

his feet appear to be the same as the
boots he leaves; but here is where
the monkey is mistaken. AS soon as
the visitor goes away, the monkey de-
sends from some tree and thrusts his
own feet into the boots. The inside is
covered with glue, and he sticks fast !;
also the boots are weighted with lead
and chained together.
The trapper may chain gourd,
filed with corn or some other eatable,
to & heavy log. Mr.. Monkey comes
along, tastes the food, relishes it, and
wants more. There is no limit to his
greed. He thrusts his hand into the
small opening in the gourd and his
fingers close around large supply Of
the food. Then he finds himself I'M
able to withdraw his hand. The trap
per advances and captures Mr.. Mon
key, because the animalt thinking
cap and his Unsuitable greed are such
that the simple expedient of releasing
the food never occurs TO him as a
means of escape.

Some Rich Men Are Said to Be Paying

that farmers have been well paid by
