Report ON Aircraft
Ready for Senate
Submission Likely To Be Fol-
lowed by Criminal Actions,
II Is Said
Especial Dispatch to The Tribune

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-The SEN
ate aircraft investigation report is said
to be complete and will be presented to
the Senate Monday, if it is not made
public before that date. The report, it
is understood, is unanimous, and was
characterized to-day by those who have
had access to it as having plenty of
teeth in it," 1t would not be surprs-
ing, according to Senate gossip, if Grim
inal actions follow its publication.
The report, it is understood, will
charge those responsible for the air
craft programme with more than ordi-
nary negligence in permitting the de-
lays which have occurred in plane pro-
duction. Contrary to general belief, the
report will allege that despite the fact
that Congress has appropriated un-
stintingly for aeroplane production, not
a single American fighting machine has
yet been actually used on the fighting
'front.'

Hold Your Liberty Bonds

Bulletin No. 66, issued by the
government War Loan Organiza-
ton, Washington, D. c., says:
The money invested in Liberty
Bonds if kept so invested until
peace is established will be worth
much more than now.
Every prominentmana and Wom-
an in the United States who holds
his or her Liberty Bonds may find
the money SO invested worth
twice as much purchasing power
after the war as now. How sure
and safe an investment it is,
and how profitable an investment
to keep your money invested in
Liberty Bonds until it's purchas-
ingpower becomes greater than at
present. It's a better use and a
wiser use of your money than
speculating with it.

In Fairness to the Farmer

In 1916 only IA, 900 farmers re-
ported taxable incomes or about
l out of 400 land owners made
$4,000 or over net income.
One doctor out of IA and one
lawyer out of 5 reported and paid
an income tax under the same
law a poor showing for farmers.
Everyone knows that a farmer
with a net income of $4,000 to
$4,000 is much better off than a
city man with same income.
He pays no house rent which
in cities amounts to one-ffth of a
mans income, and makes over
half his living with no cash out
lay.
The farmers $4,000 to $4,000
net cash income is worth nearly
double a professional mans and
he enjoys more independence.
State and federal government
conduct colleges for training the
farmer and state and nation make
laws for his benefit.

WHAT ABOUT WHAT?

We read in eastern newspapers
and magazines about so many
whats after the war, says the
Kingman Miner. that we expect
soon to have a war of swatting
the what. The poor word has
been so overworked that we ex-
pect it soon to go into innocuous
dessuetude. After the war is
over this country is going to
take care of itself in farming,
mining and every industrial pur-
suit. The mere fact that our
own United States has engaged
in a philanthropic war is no base
for the belief that everything
will be turned topsy-turvy when
the boys come marching home
again. We read what is to hap
pen to gold and what is going to
happen to silver; what is going
to happen to shipping and ship
building; what is going to hap
pen TO-.
Well nothing is going to hap
pen to something after the war
or before the war is over. The
United States is so big and great
and enterprising that no man
nor set of men nor all the men
can put it on the bum. Don't
get scared over the problems of
after the war, or the flu or other
measley things, but get ready to

So terrible has the influenza
become on the San Carlos Indian
agency that it is impossible to
build cofins in which to bury
them. The Indians are in fear
of the disease, as much so as of
the smallpox, and it is possibly
this that has caused many to do
things that brought on the dis
ease instead of avoiding it. On
the Navajo reservation influenza
has caused many deaths. 1t
would seem that mortality is
greater from this disease among
the dark races than among the
white, but possibly on account of
greater precautions being taken
by the whites.
