ALLIES NOW HAVE
BOMBING PLANES
WORKING In SQUADRONS

There were no aerial bombing Of
CARNATIONS in the allied flying corps
during the first year OF the war
Practically all the work in the air was
ia the nature of observations. No
pilots could be spared for anything
else. Today probably 20 per cent OF
the aerial arms are bombing squad
rons of IL machines per squadron.
The first bombing was done by vol
unteer pilots who flew over Germany
and dropped three or four bombs,
made from artillery shells, on con-
centration caps, and environments.
Showers of small steel arrows Were
spilled sometimes ON conveys, troop
trains, and bodies of massed men.
The Germans began day bombing Of
cities in 1915, and the allies bombar-
ded Karlsruhe in reprisal later in the
same year. Since then evolution in
organized bombarding developed rap
Idly and the French began night
bombing, but this was not underta.
ken by the Germans until August,
1915.
AT the present time large groups,
including several squadrons of bomb
ing machines go over the lines from
time to time and completely destroy
their objective, be it city or a camp,
a column of troops, or trench sys-
tenn. Unfortunately the allies air
forces have to travel for miles over
hostile territory defended by anti-air
craft guns to attack German cities,
while the enemy can attack French
cities by flying only short distance
beyond the allied lines.
The allies are developing large
bombing planes which carry sufficient
fuel for long excursions and arma-
ment to protect them when they are
attacked by fighting airplanes.
Bombing squadrons are escorted usu-
ally over the lines by fast fighting
squadrons of 18 planes to squadron,
and then left to their own devices
for the fighter seldom carry suffi-
cient fuel to permit them to accom-
pany the bombers on the round trip.
The dropping of the bomb is SIM
liar to shooting rifle. First, you set
your sights and wind guage, you
hold the rifle PROPERLY, and finally
you pull the rigger at the proper mo-
ment. If your ammunition is stan
dard, your sights correct, you hit the
target. So with bombing. If you set
your sights correctly, fly your plane
correctly over the objective and drop
the bomb at the proper time you will
hit the target. If the ammunition
manufacturers give you good bombs
The objective will be destroyed.

IDEALS THAT INSPIRED
RECENT JULY FOURTH
CELEBRATION.

New ideals that inspired the recent
July Fc lrth celebration were outlin-
ed clearly to the division Of women's
work of the committee on Public
information by Miss Josephine Roche
director of work with the foreign
born: She said:
"We proclaim new Declaration
of independence for the whole world,
which all people will share, instead
OF America alone. We have always
been proud of independence Day and
the ideals that brought it into being,
and on this particular Fourth, 1913,
il the women of 1776 could be here
they would realize that their decen-
dants have not drifted away from
these ideals and that the Americans
who have come more recently to this
land have been drawn by the same
vision of freedom which the founders
o. the Republic had.
These great groups of our for
eign born are the people who have
been fighting for centuries for de-
mocracy and liberty in the Old World
just as our ancestors fought here.
A wonderful faith in America, trust
that they will here realize their idels
and find for their children a better
chance, bring them to US. We are
beginning to understand we have as
much to learn from them as we have
to teach them,a land that altogether we
must work for the realization of our
ideal America.
"Never has there been such an
sall-American Fourth or one which
expressed SO truly and fully the in
tent of the signers of the Declare
ton of Independence. From all
quarters of the globe America has
drawn to herself loyal citizens bring
ing her the best from the old land.

S5, 900, 100000 imports for the last
fiscal year were manufactured goods
but little more than one-eighth-
while the chief imports consisted of
j dstuffs Al raw materials, to tax
which general extent at this time
would be criminal Besides, the in
crease in imports has been in value
rather than in quantity, as a rule.
Values have doubled during the
war;. and so this condition makes a
large showing of imports, but the
quantity has not greatly changed
from the present war figures, while
the quantity of manufactured i'm
ports-the kind chiefly dutiable un-
der any kind of tariff-have greatly
fallen off, and strange to say, the
present inflated values of such inn
ports were not quite as great as they
were for corresponding period of
the Payne tariff law ending in 1918.
All nations agree that the tariff is
VIGOROUSLY unreliable and inefficient
as a revenue producer in time of war.
The result is that all nations at war
turn to internal taxation for their
chief revenues.

We must, therefore, establish a

george declared The English income
tax to be the center and the sheet

This tax has forced its way into
the fiscal systems of almost every
civilized country by reason of its In
herent soundness and efficiency as a
method of taxation. Its underlying
principle is that every citizen should
Fay taxes in proportion to his ability,
and that net income is the best meas
ure of such ability. By many it has
been characterized as embodying the
Golden Rule of taxation. This tax
is equitable, elastic, and productive.
Livery citizen pays accordingly as he
has prospered during the year. He
knows that his tax is fair. He also
knows that every other citizen will
pay in relative proportion, and is
therefore content with his portion,
whether it be large or small, accor-

president steps across the threshold Of the expresdency
We now have with us Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Taft, Both
have had the highest preerment within the gift OF the
American people Did either Of them to be partsans
when they entered the White House1 II is not recorded
And today they are both vgianty partisan, both urging
their partys success.
Both Of the republican expresidents, for specific
ample have Joined in eleconeerng Tor Mr. Newberry the
republican candidate for senator IN Michigan and urging
the defeat of Mr.. Ford. Mr. Taft speaks OF Mr.. New
berrys wide experience in public afiairs-an experience
which he AYERS the nation needs in its post beum prob
lens Mr. Roosevelt beaborS Mr.. Ford's pacitism and
laud Mr. Newbery. But everyone knows that Mr. Roose-
welt and Mr. Taft Mr. Ford beaten because he is
candidate OH the democratic ticket and they want Mr.
Newberry elected because he is repubcan Everyone
knows too that II Mr. Ford had not been solicited to make
the race BY President Wilson, and il he the nominee
of Michigan republicans both Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Taft
would urge Mr. Fords election They would cite his won
deru business career qualifying him peculiarly for the
public service which peace will demand They would dwell
upon the great national service his genius and vast re-
sources have rendered the country and to civilization in
the war.
Now what may in truth be said in behalf OF Mr.. New
beuys candidacy Like Mr. Ford Mr. Newberry is rich
man Unlike Mr. Ford, who made his money Mr.. New
berry inherited MS fortune lie mas let no impress upon
public thought He is quite unknown. The country has
long since forgotten that Mr. Newberry served for few
months as one OF Mr. Rooseyes flock Of naval secreta
ries All that the country asa whole knows OF Mr. New
berry is that candalous amount Of money expended
in nominating him in the senatorial primary, concerning
which he processes complete ignorance We do not ques-
ton his statement But it is apparent that such complete
gueessness such delightful unsophistication denies the
wide experience which Mr. Taft ascrbes TO Mr. New
berry With experience associate acumena knowledge
of what's going on. OF such acumen Mr. Newberry seems
marvelousy innocent.
You may recall Delivers genial portrait Of Mr.. Taft

know precisely what they want The picture to fiji
