REVENUE MEASURE
To Be PASSED BY
NOVEMBER FIRST
Chairman Kitchln Explains
Details of Bill to House,
Ban on Beer Making May
NeceSsitate Some CHANGES.


Washington, Sept. Explanation
of the revnue bill was concluded IN
the house today by Chairman Kitchir
of the ways and means committee, Mr.
Kitchin started speaking yesterday
and members said his address was
the longest ever delivered in the
house.
Probable effect of prohibition leg
islatin on the nations revenues was
discussed by Mr.. Kitchin in explain
ing the beverage section of the war
tax measure. He also took up the
war and excess profits features as
we'll as those affecting corporations
and luXuries.
General debate on the bill will con-
tinue next week and leaders tonight
revised their predictions for passage
of the measure next Saturday. They
believe now that minor committee re-
visions, possibly of the liquor taxes
because of pending prohibition legis-
lation and debate will prevent final
vote before September II or Is.
May BE by November 1.
Mr.. Kitchin in his speech said the
bill should be enacted by both houses
of congress by November /, and he
expressed the hope that another war
revenue measure next year would not
be necessary, although he said that
If national prohibition is enacted new
tax sources will have to be found
to replace the 81 5000, 900 estimated
tax on alcoholic beverages provided
for in the present measure.
Such legislation Mr.. Kitchin said.
probably will not be necessary before
next year, although the administration
order announced yesterday, stopping
the manufacture of beer December l.,
next, will cause a loss under the pres
ent bill of $12O,000,000.
1--WE feel that the bill is not too
hard on corporations. We are not so
hard on them as at first blush it might
seem. We're not confiscating their
incomes, said Mr., Kitchin. in COM
menting on the increase of corporation

With the French Army in France.
Sept (Friday, by the Associated
Press.) )--General Mangin's troops
reached the Eindenburg line at sew
eral points during today's fighting.
They took Laffaux and Petit Barisis
and drove near to Vauxamillon, while
extending their hold on the Aisne,
as far as st. Mard. The enemy shell
fire became more intense as the
French troops advanced and the re-
sistance of the infantry grew
stronger.
The adversaries were face to face
this afternoon near Quincy Bassee in
the, same positions they occupied re-
spectively for about year before the
German drive this spring.
Notwithstanding the wastage and
fatigue among the enemY's troops
and the splendid ardor of the French
infantry, the task the latter forces are
now facing is arduous. The Germans
occupy positions of natural strength
which they have reinforced. The re-
gion Of the st. Gobain forest is not
only a natural fortress but is favora-
BILE to the enemy's retreat tactics.
The hills, gulleys and thickets sup
ply an excellent camouflage for artl-
lery and machine gun nests.
The heights are honeycombed with
stone quarries that offer all the ad-
vantages of vast, solid rock shelters
where whole battalions may find cover
from the heaviest artillery fire.
When the Germans retired to this
line in 1917 they had not prepared
their position. They counted upon
the vast area of land laid waste in
front Of them, however, to make an
attack on the bastion more difficult
South Of the Aisne at St. Mard the
French troops this afternoon were APP
preaching the junction of the river
and the Disc Aisnecanal this seeming
to be the line chosen by the enemy
for his resistance in that region.

 It would be we'll If every American would dispossess his mind of two pop ular and pleasing fallacies. First, that the United States took up arms as knight errant to right the wrongs of France and Belgium. Second, that our impressive entrance into the war must inevitably, and of itself. decide the is- sue. We are fighting as free people for our own safety, and we must fight hard and well, or suffer a shameful defeat. Germany denied us the seas because she thought we would accept our fate from her hands. She permits herself now a profound contempt for our army. Untrained men with defec- in her eyes as prairie dogs would be in ours. She boasts happily that We will pay her the indemnity which is essential for her reconstruction.
 Meanwhile, to make sure of our downfall, she plots reasonably in every state of the Union. Perhaps, if she wins the day, she will recompense such men as Senators Stone and La Toilette, and Mayor Thompson of Chi cago. More likely she will fling them on the scrap-heap. But loyal Ameri- cans may we'll understand that unless this nation puts forth all it's strength. without reserve. without fatigue, with out self-pity; unless we crush the trai- tors at home. and defeat the enemy abroad, bitter future awaits us. At best. we shall be humiliated, lmpover- Shed, and crippled in our foreign trade for many years to come. At worst, we shall see in our land the blazing homes, the ravished women, the butchered children. the unutterablo shame and horror which ma k tho wake of Ge. man army Of iuvaston

Man Who Does Not Thus Cooperate

s sRter cooperation in buying coal ,at Vlce must be obtained in the West, southweet and sections of the Middle West. the Fuel Administration an- nounces at Washington, If the mines are to be kept going full time during the summer months and the danger averted of serious shortage of coal in those sections next fell and winter
The Carlisle independent., 1918-05-23

Official reports to the Fuel Admin Illinois, Michigan, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, New Mex leo, Iowa, Utah, Washington, Colorado. Wyoming and Montana consumers of coal are not placing their orders in the volume expected, or in quantities nec- essary to insure against winter short age This Is true also, though to less extent, in Ohio and Indiana.
 Apparently the consumers in these districts have not yet realized the full gravity of the situation" the Fuel Administration states. "The mines in those sections must be kept going. They can be kept going only If coal ordinarily ordered later in the year Is now. The domestic consumer who delays placing his order is taking a chance of having an insufficient cold weather supply; the industrial user who falls to order his coal now Is almost certain to face shutdown later on.
 Buy Now-Everybody!
 "The man who does not do his part by anticipating his needs and cooper atIng with the Fuel Administration and the railroads by ordering his coal now takes his place with the man who avoids service at the front or refuses to buy Liberty Bonds. Every coal user should buy and store coal now to meet his requirements so far as he is possibly able to do so.
 ssEvery state and local representative of the Fuel Administration Is ready to help the coal consumer in every way possible to get an appropriate and ad- equate supply of coal. Every day that passes decreases the margin of time in which this assistance may be given.
 If you can't get the grade of coal that you have been getting in the past take another grade that you can get. It Is better to have in your bins coal of a grade slightly different from what you have been using in the past than to go into winter without any coal at all.
 "Consumers who do not order their coal now are gambling on the future. There is reason to believe that If ev- cry one anticipates hls coal require ments and puts In his order now no one will have to do without next win ter. If however, there is delay ia or dering coal 1t is more than likely that production during the fall and winter will be insufficeent to meet the needs of every one.
 Better New Kind Than Nene.
 sThere has been notable neglect of certain grades of coal that are now available in large volume and clamor- ous demand. in certain quarters at least. for specific coals that various consumers have used for number of years. While there Is at the present no shortage of coal in the west, thers may be g. denial of selection of the pre- else coal most desired. If you seek to do your part place your order now for

Surrounded by everything that brings

poor daddy, who was all alone.
One day she surprised her grand
mother with the startling remark
"Grandma, I wish daddy was police

KEEP FARM RECORDS
TO SHOW ACTIVITIES
Cash Accounts, Properly Assem-
bIed, Are Of Importance.
Often Overlooked Projects Produce
Nearly as Much Money as obvi-
ously Important - Carefully
Avoid Sudden Changes.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
When record is kept of all the
money taken in and spent on the farm,
at the close Of the business year the
cash accounts can be assembled under
headings that will show exactly what
branch Of the farm activities produced
the dollars and what each required in
the way Of cash expenditure to keep
going. Some farmers are apt to judge
Of the importance Of the various farm
projects by the time it takes to put
them through. To such, a complete
cash record for year, property as
sembled, will be an eye-opener. Often
seemingly unimportant things on the
farm, such as the flock of poultry, pro-
duce nearly as much net cash as the
obviously important. The years cash
summary helps the farmer to get a
better perspective Of these things.
In using such records as an aid to
future plans, hasty conclusions should
not be drawn, nor should snap judy
ments be taken. The fact that the
hogs or the corn crop brought in the
most net money last year is no reason
for assuming that all the activities Of
the farm henceforth should be devoted
to the sole purpose Of hog or corn
raising. 1t may be that the keeping
of cows was partly responsible for
making the hogs so productive of net
cash, or that the growing Of wheat
clover, or other crops in rotation with
corn made the latter crop much more
profitable than it would have been If
grown alone. Similar conditions will
be met with on all farms. and there.
fore no sudden changes, should be
made on the basis of what few &C.
counts may show.
On the other hand, single years
figures will occasionally indicate that
something is radically wrong; will
show where the net expenses Of one
farm enterprise is great drain on the
net cash returns made by the others
All phases of such an enterprise
should be carefully studied and un
less the losses can be assigned tt
some reason, such as bad season
temporarily adverse market condi
tons, epidemics, or similar unusua
conditions, it may often be dropped
with profit.
Comparison Of the annual figures
year by year is mother source Of prof
from the use Of accounts, since b.
such comparison a true perspectiv
and insight into the makeup Of tn
business is gained.
