If this ran-coat fraud investigation should lead to the proper consequences the manufacturers con- tractors and go-betweens would be sent to places where they would need rain coats for the next twenty-five years. The army officers who by brib- or otherwise, have furthered the fraud would be provided with loosely fitting wooden overcoats
 There is no lighter punishment than execution to meet the crime of army officer who will become party to defrauding his government in time like this. and to equpping soldiers at the front with rotten clothing.
 In other countries public in time of war are kept fit by the fear of punishment such crimes only as negligence and carelessness with the best intentions In the world. For the officer who deliber- atey becomes party to cheating his government no punishment allowed by the constitution can be severe.
 According to the dispatches officers whose bus ness it was to pass these rotten rain coats were threatened by contractors with dismissal unless they should approve the clothing. Persons who make such threats must feel consciousness of ability to secure the execution of them That is matter that should be given special and separate attention in the inves gaton to discover whether army purchasing sys- tenn has become honey -combed that sworn officers may be deterred from their duty by influences

COMMITTEE FAvORS EIGHTEEN PER CENT
 CORPORATIONS TAX
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, July 23.-An IS per cent normal tax on the net income of corporations with provision, however, that only F per cent shall be levied on the income distributed to shareholders, was tentatively agreed upon today by Members of the committee believe that the lower rate on earnings distributed will have tendency to break up large corporate surpluses and force the money out where it can be reached by the surtax on individual incomes. The present normal income tax on cOrpOra- tions is per cent.
 Chairman Kitchn of the committee, after todays session, made this state ment:
 All Day Discussion
 The committee had under discus sion today the income tax on corpora tions, discussing practically all day the rates.
 The following rates were suggested and discussed:
 "1-Twenty per cent on the net in come of corporations, with a proviso that on the amount distributed to SlldrenOluerS, only 1V per cent SnOulu be levied.
 ''2-Eighteen per cent on the net in come of corporations. with a proviso that on the amount distributed to shareholders. only F per cent should be levied.
 The following rates were also sug- gested:
 "A flat rate of 15 per cent on the net income: and, ''2-A flat rate of 12 per cent on the net income. No Definite Decision While no definite decision wa7 reached, it seemed that a majority of the committee favored the proposition of the IS per cent rate on net income with the reduction to 12 per cent on 1 the amount distributed to sharehold- CTS"
 The proposed arrangement of the normal income tax on corporations is in line with treasury department views and is a new plan in federal taxation. The proposal resulted from testimony at committee hearings that many cor l porations keep a certain portion of their annual profit in the business in stead of distributing the entire profits to stockholders who would have to pay a surtaX on it.

The Organ.

One of contemporaries by the way, a strict party paper whose nominated party candidates have always been paragons and whose opponents have always been deep-dyed scoundrels, complains of ngratitude It declares that when safely ensconced in office and bite the hand that fed 'em In other words they know no such thing as reciprocity They not paragons after the election
 We have heard such complaints before and we shall always hear them long there are news papers which persist in being party organs. Praise be, though, that the party organ is becoming less numerous each year.
 Two things contribute to the dwindlng of the party organ One is the and truer conception of the newspapers of their mission and the other is he fact proved and again that be party organ does not pay. It good thing to be any sind Of organ But if newspaper feels that it must be an organ. household pct of some kind, it had better be corporation organ: it had better put itself into the keeping capalisc combina ton which will at least that it is wel-fed and has nice brass collar than to itself keeping of a political party which is Protean and now hydra-headed
 If one wants to be dog he had better be a dog with an owner. Nobody could kick him around but the owner. who between times would see that he eats regularly and has a comfortable kennel The party organ is everybody's dog kicked by everybody and regularly fed by nobody, thrown now and then when it rolls over, sits up plays dead or performs any of those cute little tricks It imagines it wears a party collar which is really no collar at all but piece of dangled rope by which is yanked along when any of it's selfchosen masters wants to use it.
 The work of the party organ is frequently dirty work which dirty men make it perform. Dirty men are always ungrateful and otherwise disreputable.
 The newspaper should be the organ of itself alone Then if it has any complaint to make of ill treatment, there is trouble about locating the grievance. It should the community just as every other citizen should it. precisely the that every other citizen should serve it. It owes nothing to the community that other citizen owes. It has the rights, and the same duties to perform that the blacksmith the banker the merchant and the carpenter have It should be just as free, independent and upstanding legs (no crawling on four) the blacksmith. the banker, the merchant and the carpenter Then it can have no occasion 10 complain of ingrattude
 Newspapers may properly have party tendencies just as every good citizen should have, again the blacksmith, the banker, the merchant and the car penter. For reason another every citizen has m inclination to party another. It is his right 70 follow that inclination, is right of a news paper 10 follow it's ncnaton, like man, and not olndly and four -footedly
