EXPRESS CHARGES.

The dispatches from Washing
ton convey the rather startling in
formation that the express COM
panies are seeking authority from
Director General McAdoo to in
crease charges. We are not sur
prised. Nothing surprises us
these days. But we do earnestly
hope that the Director General
will frown down upon this prop
ositionr-and do it with a dull
thud. The express companies
have increased their charges with
remarkable regularity in the past
few years-they were allowed to
do it only a short time ago, and
now they want to raise again. We
can bear witness to the increased
rates. as we are q patron of one
Of the express companies and
know how artistically the prices
have climbed. The rates should
be decreased and not increased

As regards the approaching
Liberty Bond Campaign, p. FL
Saunders, State Director Of War
Savings, says that his attitude Oh
this is the same as before except
that he is convinced that all must
work harder if the States quota
If bonds as well as Stamps is

b confined to the redemption of
pledges already made and or
ganizatiOn Of War-Savings Socie-
ties, and work in the schools.
AS to the two campaigns con-
f1lctlng, L repeat that they are as
much in harmony and working
to the same end as the army and
navy or as the brave American
soldiers and those of our gallant
Allies. They are both Of abso-
lutte Importance to the winning
of the war, and failure to raise
the States allotment Of both
would be a serious disappointment
to ourselves as well as to our
soldiers at the front.
"Greater sacrifice and self-de-
NAL must be made by every one
if the State maintains it's present
high standard in war work. 1t
has not failed at any call the Gov
eminent has made, and must not.
As long as the boys fight in the
trenches and endure the terrors of
war. one Of which is the rigors of |
winter, we must stand back Of |
them even though it calls for Sc
we're hardships, till the conflict is
ended and victory is won.'

WE WILL BUY MACHINE
GUNS.
Iberia Parish Fourth Liberty
Loan Subscriptions Will Pay
for Many of These Weapons.

No other single weapon used
in the world war has proved so
efficacious as the machine gun.
Equally in offense and defense it
has become indispensable. When
our boys dash forward against
the Huns, they carry with them
these deadly guns, setting them
up at every pause to rake the
ranks Of the enemy. When our
aviators fly over the German
lines, for combat or for obseryd-
ton, each airplane must carry one
or more Of these weapons. Thou
sands upon thousands Of them are
in use now, and more must be pro-
vided in an unending stream.
1t is well for the people Of
New Iberia to fix these facts
firmly in their minds. for they
are about to buy a great number
of machine guns with which the
boys Of this place, who are in the
service. will shoot the kaiser s
soldiers full of holes.
One light Browning machine
gun costs the government about
1925. Each resident of Iberia
Parish who will lend the United
States government $3.50 will know
that he or she is paying for two
of those weapons, and may be
assured that those very guns will
soon be spraying with bullets the
brutal Boches who are trying to
ruin the world.
The way to lend this money to
the government-which means to
vourself-will be open to each Of
you when the bonds of the fourth
Liberty loan are put on sale. 1t
will take only five $50 bonds to
Jay for those two machine guns,
md if you cannot afford to take
I'll five Of them, the members of
your household can combine to
purchase that number. Then,
when later you read about a
punch of the Iberia boys ly-
NC in a machine gun nest in
france beating back a counter
tack Of the Huns, you can say:
Maybe they are using the guns
ur family paid for. . Our Lib
'rty Loan director, Mr.. f. T.
Weeks is informed that we must
axe at least 100000 of the bonds
f the fourth loan.

INCREASE OF 100 PER CENT
ON WHISKEY.
Tax on Beverages.

Washington, Sept. 18.-When-
ever Congress faces the task Of
writing tax bill it always turns
instinctively to liquor as an I'M
failing medium for obtaining a
large return to the Treasury, in
spite of the fact that the liquor
business has for many years ear
ried tax burden heavier than
any other taxable article. No ex-
ception to this rule has been
made in the preparation Of the
new war tax now under consid-
GRAFTON by Congress.
Beverages are to be taxed in
the new law to the greatest extent
to which they will produce rev.
enue, the Ways and Means Com.
mittee says in its report. To tax
them still more heavily would al
most prohibit their sale and re-
suit in but a small return.
