THE SHAMELESS OF FOCH.

General Foch. in chief command of
the forces of the Allies has minated
very plainly that he counts upon o
thing, and one thing only, and that Is "A
successful offensive When he is pre-
pared for that offensive he viii project
il In the meantime he is conducting
a shambes on the Marnc and upon the
other parts Of the line He is seeking
to Kill of rs many OF the enemy as
possible and TO force the using up of
reserves TO the degree that will greatly
deplete the forces Of the Huns. While
he is forcing the foe to make vast
sacrifices he is at the same time receiving
continually augmcnting rcnforcements
from the ntcd States, Thus the ISSUES
Of the coming Allied offensive are being
worked out in the dual direction Of
lesscned manpower for the Germans and
increased manpOwcr for the Allies.
This process cannot be kept up in
definitely, nor does General Foch seek
TO prolong it. But he will not be hurried
and so the shambles of Foch are kept
bloody with the multitudes of the foes
stricken in a mad purpose to gain the
objective Of Paris or to break through
upon the wings or To effect their end in
any manner whatever. The agile Ally
leader keeps nimbly side-stepping and
punching and the Zoe keeps getting

Secretary Lanes letter to the President
really "a statement intended for Con-
press and the public-on the need OF
planning in advance for 'our soldiers
returning from the war" Is broad
gagged and double-tracked document. 1t
is the kind of writing which we now are
accustomed to expect from Mr.. Lane
For this foreign-born member OF the
cabinet is what we like TO think truly
American in his warm and hopeful
patriotism and his humane feeling He
knows the country well, physically and
spiritually, and is in the habit of taking
large and long views of our future.
Never has he shown his qualities more
clearly than in this vivid and informed
description of some of the things which
the government ought TO make ready to
do in behalf of the men In the army when
they come home from France.
As Secretary of the Interior, Mr..
Lane naturally confines his attention
TO the question of providing land for the
soldiers who want it. The Civil War
precedent is appealing After 1865. vet
Grams became homestenders by the
thousand But the imperial domain of
public land then available has now shrunk
to meagre remnant The Secretary
states that we now have in the conti-
mental United States unappropriated
land amounting to go. 0O0, 900 acres,
but of this amount less than one-half
can ever be made cultivable There
are, however. vast stretches of reclaim
able land arid areas and swamps. And
Mr.. Lanes argument is in favor OF taking
steps at once first by full official
survey and drafting Of plans to do
what is needful by way of irrigation
and draining 10 make these lands work
ablo. Further than that. his vision
looks 10 projects which would enable
the returned soldier to become land
owner, instead of farm tenant, and To
find houses and community groups
planned for him in anticipation. As
Secretary Lane points out, all this
would be only To take advantage of the
fruitful experience of other countries,
Denmark Ireland. Canada, and the
Austrian Commonwealth 1t Is not lar
CESS out Of tho treasury which is intended
The returned soldier is not thought Of as
an object of charity. lie is merely n
citizen before whom, for the sake Of
the general good as well as for his own
interest, il is desirable to prepare 20

Henry Ford for the Senate.

In all probability, Henry Ford of De-
troit, the great manufactures Of auto
mobiles. and man who has been of
valuable assistance to the government IN
the prosecution of the war, will be the
next United States Senator from Mich
gan He Is proposed for tho Republican,
nomination. and although this is not vet
assured him. conditions arc shaping IN a
manner that may compel the Republicans
10 take him MIR Ford has consented TO be
a candidate for Senator, at the urgent re-
quest Of President Wilson.
AZ a conference Of Michigan Democrats
held AT Lansing, Wednesday, Mr. Ford
was Endorsed for United States Senator.
This means that the Democrats will not
name a candid party candidate against him
in the event Of his nomination by the
Republicans, but VIII support HIM unani-
mouslv.
The attitude Of the Democrats which
they can we'll afford 10 assume. as Michi-
gan is heavily Republican State places
the Republicans in quandary- II they do
not nominate Mr. Ford for United States
Senator, he VIII be the Democratic candi-
date, and in all probability would he elect

1t is altogether probable. therefore, the
Republicans Will nominate Mr., Ford.
and in that event his election VIII be
assured beyond doubt And there is
little doubt he viii make a good Senator.

Those Who Paw Income Taxes,

An analysis of the income tax returns of
last year, just made public by the Trea-
sury Department, contains some interest
ing figures covering distribution of in
comes in this country. These incomes were
deriv ed in 1916 before the new revenue law
was framed. They reveal, among other
thing that in that year more than twice
rs many persons enjoyed incomes from
$1,000 to $4,000 year than there were
those having incomes from 81 600 to
1000 Also that there were 206 per-
sons with incomes over 81 900, 900 and
$40 with incomes between $500, 900 and
81 100000
Another interesting analysis Of the re-
turns by occupations shows that bankers
and brokers as class had proportionaliy
the highest number having incomes of
$4,000 or more, 2077 per cent being
obliged to make returns
Lawyers and judges came next with
1897 per cent OF lumbermen and manu-
facturcrs little moro than 10 per cent
ittuA ''iiiN ''''o t'A ''H' ~ 'hNN''
ors, editors and reporters and i.42 per
cent of the clergymen came within the
law. Farmers arc at the bottom of the list,
with teachers next.
The payment of income taxes is one of
those duties of citizenship that are not
pleasing. But they are essential, and CO.
pecially at this time, when our govern
mcnt has such tremendous Undertaking
on it's hands as its participation in the
great war And the payment of income
taxes is an important agency in tho sue
cessful prosecution Of the war
