IN The COUNTY
MEN OF FINE PHYSICAL AND
MENTAL QUALIFICATIONS,
SAYS LOCAL REGISTRAR
Registrants Include Twelve Citizens
of Other COuntries-TwO From
Nations at War with u. S.

The office of the local board and
other registration places in Stevens
county were busy Wednesday regis
tering the 123 men who have reached
the age of 81 since the registration of
year ago. Clerk John B. Slater and
Col. Clair Hunt registered the 81 men
who came to Colville for the purpose.
That the men who registered were
unusually clean-cut and intelligent in
appearance, was the statement made
by Mr. Slater Thursday. "Almost
every one looked as though he could
not only pass a physical examination,
but also an examination mentally" he
said. The registration was from a.
m. to 9 p. m. and the registrars found
men waiting to register at 7 in the
morning.
OF the 1913 registered in the county,
10 were found to be aliens, citizens of
countries with which the United States
is at war. Two were Indians

with the various cards after they are
filled out. They are all shuffled and
mixed indiscriminately and then num-

the registration numbers. A list of
the names is then made out numeri-
cally and a copy sent to the adjutant
general in Olympia and one to the
provost marshal general in Washing
ton d. C. Then another list is made
alphabetically and disposed of in like
manner. A copy of the cards is sent
to the state adjutant general and he
sends them to the district board hav-
ing jurisdiction over the local board
So if the local board office should
catch afire the day after registration
the records of the registration could
all be replaced. No wonder the local
board works some Is hours a day.

corporations, the report stated:
Individuals and partnerships pay
the heavy surtaXes upon all net IN
comes, while corporations are relieved
from surtaxes upon the portion OF Their
earnings which is not distributed. THIS
inequality is more than compensated
for by the fact that the corporation is
subject to the war excess profits tax
The situation, as between different
forms of business organization, having
been brought into approximate bal
ance, it was deemed proper to relieve
the corporation from the six per sent
differential income tax, provided by
the house bill.''
Regarding the tax on beverages, the
report says, no sound reason was found
for the house proposal for doubling the
present rate of 1920 per gallon on nom

medicines and household necessities.

costs on distilled liquor, remaining in

port explained that the revised indi-
vidual surtax rates, graduated upward
one per cent on each $1,000 over $4,000,
are more squitable than the arbitrary
graduations of the house bill.
The bill retains the house provisions
for income taxation of salaries, includ-
ing those possibly of the president and
federal judges, legality of which, the
report stated, is left to the courts, II
the question is raised. The report,
however, states that the house clause
for federal taxation of new state and
municipal bonds was stricken out as
"it seemed unwise for congress to at
tempt to impose this tax upon the OBJ
legations of state and municipalities,
as long as the states are not free to
tax, in a similar manner, obligations of

Dictatorship Undesirable
Herr Hirsch asserted, that a dicta

incompatible with the principles both
of socialism and of democracy. He pre-
dicted that the Rhenish industrial class
es would not hesitate to call on the
entente to restore order, if the present
condition of suspense was permitted tc
continue. He then discussed the fl
nancial situation, saying that the sub
Stitution of a tremendous deficit for the
former surplus, would compel the ad-
ministration of the state railways tC
increase the tariff by 60 per cent This
measure already had been planned By
the former government, he added.

BANKERS OPPOSE
NATIONAL CONTROL

ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., Dec. o
Private control of railroads, with jul
dicious regulation, was advocated in
the report of the railroad securities
committee of the National Investment
Bankers association, in session here
today. The pre-war plan of railroad
regulation, the report declared, was a
failure, and the roads should not be
returned to their pre-war status with
out providing release from the bur
dcnsome conditions under which they
have heretofore operated
Continuing, the report said:
Any plan of future government con-
troll should eliminate the conflict of
control between state and federal
bodies.
The Sherman antitrust law and
state antitrust laws, in their appi
cation to transportation, should be re-
pcaled in he interests of efficiency
and economy, because such laws are
unnecessary under proper govern
mental regulation.
ANY plan OF government control
which increases operating expense and
regulates income, should assume re-
sponsibility for adequate earnings AMI

policy. The profits realized during the
year 1918 are in large part war profits;
they are now in the pocket of the tax
payers; they should contribute heavily,
before they have been dissipated or
re-invested toward the payment of the
expenses of the war, to which IN large
measure they are attributable.
To Reduce War Levies
But it is equally important that
these special taxes should be reduced,
as the occasion which inspired and JUS
titled them recedes into the past. To
fail adequately to tax the war profits
of 1918 would constitute a manifest
miscarriage of fiscal justice Not to
provide now for the reduction of the
war profits tax would be equally in
excusable"
In addition to the tax reductions, due
to the fact that the government now
copes with peace instead of war condi-
tions, prohibition is expected to reduce
revenue returns greatly.
Beverage taxes under the house bill
were estimated to raise $1,137, 000, 900
during their first twelve months of
operation, and $3.50, 100000 for the 1919
fiscal year.

conditions" the report states. 1T is
possible to count only upon $500, 000, 900

ARBITRARY DEMAND
MADE BY TRA|NMEN

PUEBLO, Colo, Dec. 9.-Employes
of the Colorado and Wyoming railroad,
all members of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers and Firemell,
and Firemen, and the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen, to the number Of
1855, walked out at six o'clock tonight
demanding that the company sign a
wage contract with them. The come
pany is a subsidiary of the Colorado
Fuel ana Iron company and operates
at Sunrise, Wyoming, Pueblo and Sc
gundo, Colorado. Employees at all three
of these places walked out simultan-
eously.
President ]. f. Welborn, of the Colo
RADIO Fuel and Iron company, arrived
at o'clock this afternoon from Den
yer to confer with the men. He was
handed an ultimatum in the form of
a letter, demanding that contract
be signed by six o'clock. The men
refused to prolong the conference at
ter six o'clock and walked out.
The company declares, according Il
Mr.. Welborn's statement, that this
road is not of the same sort as the
trunk line railroads of the countr.
and similar contracts with employees is
not applicable to. this railroad. The
Colorado and Wyoming railroad /:
/ principally a switching affair, anc
narrow gauge tracks and equipmen
/ are largely used. The railroad a
| Pueblo does the switching in the yard!
of the Colorado Fuel and Iron com
| panys Minnequa steel works, and a
| Sunrise, Wyoming, and Segundo
! Colorado, do large share of switch
| ing of coal and ore cars, although {
narrow guage passenger train il
| operated at points in the region.
| There is no question of wages in
volved. since the company is paying
the same schedule as is paid by Othe
railroads.
A strike at any length would effec
several thousand men, since the Min
nequa steel plant would be forced t
| close, as well as would a number of tn
coal and iron mines.
G. w. Anderson and c. V. McLaugh
lin, who represent the men in the con
troversy. declared tonight that the tim
l for arbitration had passed, and tina
unless the company would recede fror
its stand and grant the contract de
manded by the men, they would remai
out on strike.
1T is not a question of wages" de
clared Mr.. Anderson, "but it is a ques
ton of these railroad men obtainin
the same sort of working agreemen
as the employees of other railroads hav
with their employers. The company
paying wages as high as other railroad
of the United States are paying, wit
one possible exception. But we d
think that We should have the sam
sort of working agreement with tn
company as other men enjoy"
