co far the only criticism that comes
back from France in regard to the
American army is that the boys are
too keen for fight. British and French
officers seem to think that our lads
needlessly expose themselves to dan
ger. Possibly so. But it is criti-
cism that makes every loyal American
lift up his head in pride. The boys
seem to have the old fashioned notion
that the way TO whip the Huns is to
get to 'em quick and hard. The most
successful fighters are those who get
the jump on the other fellows A good
defensive shows skill, but it is the
offensive that finally wins the battle.
They used to say that Grant was not
as great general as Lee, but the
important thing was that he and his
army whipped Lee and his army until
they were compefed to surrender.
Grant always was looking for fight
and carrying it to the enemy, not
waiting for the enemy TO carry it to
him. Our boys over in France seem
to have the same notion as Grant.
They want to go TO it and complete
the Job in as short a time as possible.
Events seem to indicate that they are
right.

TT is said that the Washington au-
thorities are obsessed with .he idea
that the automobile is solely pleas
ure vehicle and therefore should be
taxed, on the theory that it is simply
a luxury. In addition to placing heavy
special war taxes on automobiles, it is
proposed to place special war tax
of 10 per cent on gasoline. This will
of course hit the tractor hard as we'll
al the automobile and tend to check
remarkable development in improv-
