Creates Odd Position

The action of General Maurice. former chief director of military op- erations at the war office, in impug- ming the veracity of ministers of the government has created a political sit- nation which is of vital importance to the cabinets existence according to the views expressed by several of the morning newspapers.
 Newspapers which have consistently supported the present administration rally to its side and insinuate or assert openly that former Premier Asquith and his followers are back of General Maurice and that the affair is a ma neuver 10 oust the Lloyd George cab met. and put in it's place a cabinet headed by Mir.

The paper is convinced that the ministers acted in perfect good faith when they made the statements which General Maurice contradicts and believes they merely repeated information supplied by their military advisers.

 FORCED IN ELECTION

LONDON, May S.-As the result of the cabinet a decision to withdraw it's offer to appoint two judges to inquire into the charges made by Major Gen. r. E. Maurice, former chief director Of military operations at the war of- flee, in which the veracity of minis- ters of the government was impugneu and the determination of the cabinet not to accept an inquiry by the select committee as suggested in the motion made by former premier Asquith, to- morrow's debate in the house of com mons will probably range over all the old charges against the government in it's relations with the army.
 Want No Election Now.
 What will follow from the debate is still obscure. If Mir. Asuuith presses his motion to a division the decision will depend largely upon the action of the older conservatives who, while anxious 10 give the government a knock. do not wish to bring about general election during the war and prefer the coalition government to the radical one which might result if the cabinet were defeated and forced to resign.

The United States Will Be Duplicating the Achievement Of the
English People in Sacrifice When Supports 5000 900
Soldiers on the French Front Professor Davenport Says

that "by women's labor nine-tenths
Ct the shells are made" But here,
with two and half times Eng
lands population, and with small
er use of women's work in ordinary
years, we still do nothing in sup
plementlng our, labor shortage -
essentially therefore our product
shortage-through the mobilization
OF these enormous resources of pro-
ductive power. Were we only will
ing to shoulder our burden -
burden that willing or unwilling we
cannot escape our present share
in the war would present an easy
task in comparison with that of
England. Our present maximum
accomplishment is possible only
through the fiscal methods that,
leaving no choice, carry with them
a general and just apportionment Of
sacrifice. Our actual burden could
be carried by taxation ludicrously
moderate beside the rates that Eng
land imposes and the weight that
England carries.

has lowered its exemption from in

Ours is at $4,000 for married men

land is increasing the basic rate of
its income tax from rs to SO per
cent. Ours is still 2 per cent. Eng
land imposes excess profits taxes up
to 80 or 80 per cent. Our require
ments remain moderate, with in
definite avenues of escape. Eng
land raises its draft limit to fifty
years, summons its men to war
work, and has called in million
and half of it's women to take
the places of men in the new neces-
sary labor of war. The London

vital factors connected with the
financing of the war is perhaps to
consider the situation that would
arise if each family in the United
States supplied one soldier who went
into the trenches, under conditions
whereby his entire sustenance de-
pended directly upon the family at
home, instead Of upon the public
treasury. Can you imagine that the
family with a soldier at the front
would have any illusion as to main
taining the old standard of living.
or conducting business as usual? On
the contrary, every family with any
ordinary intelligence, would use the
most rigorous personal economy, cut
ting out waste at every angle, so as
to provide in the fullest; possible
measure for the supply of the son,
the brother, or the father. fighting
in France. If, with the utmost
economy, the family would still be
unable to provide for his proper sup
port, then and only then would it
fall back upon a system of borrow
ing with which to purchase supplies
for shipment to the front.

Unchecked Initiation Will Lead
To Tremendous Popular Unrest
Pacific Coast Banker Urges Federal Reserve Board to In
crease Its Rediscomt Rates To Halt Expansion
and Calls for Higher Income Taxes

'oi"s' ana VIII undertake to. buy
commodities by bidding for them IN
an unlimited credit, against compet-j
ltors whose money power is steadily
increased with the increasing money
stock of the nation.
There is reason to believe that the
immediate palliative for this condi-
ton would consist in a sharp adj
vance in discount rates by the Fed
eral Reserve Bank. While there has
been some advance. in interest
charges, it has been altogether
too slight to serve as check
on the imitation that has de-
veloped. Money for commercial pur-
poses is artifcially cheap, and the
tree discount facilities offered by the
Federal Reserve Bank are steadily
increasing the money supply and are
relatively increasing the disparity
between. normal interest CHARGE
and the prevailing rate. :
All OF us recognize the situation
that would develop If we were under
the necessity of financing the war
and carrying on business with our
normal money stock. There would
be no question then about whether
we should finance non-essential in
dustries. With fixed volume of
money, the banks would have avail
able for the more or less parasitic
branches Of commerce only such
meager amounts as would remain
after providing food, shelter, trans
portation, and the voracious de-
mands of all branches of war indus
try. AS matters stand at present.
however, the bank that holds paper
classified as eligible under the defini-
ton of the Federal Reserve system
has access to the cheapest money in
the whole world, and the money thus
made available can be loaned to pro-
ducers of every luxury from per-
fumes to passementerie. Practically
the member banks themselves are
helpless to check this imitation. for
they are forced by competition be-
tween themselves to extend credit to
any customer who presents a reason
able statement.
Despite the sober and consistent
counsel Of the Federal Reserve
Board to avoid non-essential credits.
we have not yet fully awakened to
the folly, not to say criminality, in
volved in the cry of "business as
usual" The only business of the
United States now is to win the war.
Any commerce that interferes with
that business in the slightest degree
has got to be suppressed just as rig
orously as seditious talk by soap-box
spellblnders. There is demand for
the service of every man in the coun-
try, either in the army at the front,
or IN the army which ought to be
creating supplies for the sustenance
of the fighting brigades. True, any
peremptory suspension of industries
not directly contributing to the war
would throw millions of our people
into temporary idleness with conse-
quent suffering. 1t is, therefore, the
part of real financial craftsmanship
to convert the non-essential indus
tries into branches of commerce that
will aid the war, and our ideal
should be to effect this TRANSFORMED
ton with a minimum delay as we'll
as discomfort.
