PENNSYLVANIA MAN
COMES TO PULLMAN

John Wright of New Wilmington
Pa, father of Mrs William NJ. Porter
and Mrs. +, Il. Wegner, arrived Mon
day and expects to locate permanent
~ in Pullman, making his home with
Mrs Wcgncr In mentioning the de-
parture of the pioneer New Whining
ton merchant, the Globe, published
at that place, had the following to
say.
THE sale of Mr.. Wrights mercan-
tile business marks the retirement of
the dean of New Wilmington bust
ness men. Mr. Wright leaves the
store after more than SO years of
continuous work, over % years being
spent in New Wilmington During
these long years of business life Mr.
Wright has not only been successful
from a financial point of view, but
has won the confidence and respect
of the people in the communities in
which ne has resided At all times
he has been strictly honorable and
reliable--a business man whose word
is as good as his bond.
During the past 20 years he has
been deeply interested in the admin
istration of the public schools, sery-
ing as secretary for a number of
terms, and in these activities his CON
sentative counsel and experience will
be missed by his colleagues, as well
as by the school district.
For the present, at least, Mr..
Wright intends to make his home
with his daughter, Mrs. Florence
Wegner, at Pullman, Wash, leaving |
for that city shortly after the first of
the year,
Gle will leave New Wilmington
with the best wishes of the entire
community

WORLD TRADE

This country now holds the great
est reserve of gold the world has ever
seen. 1t is a great economic base,
upon which rests national, state, mu-
nicipal, corporate and private cred
its. There are but few ways in which
this reserve can be adequately pro-
tected from economic attack.
Among these are deals abroad
loans, investments, sales and sery-
ices. BY these methods this country
can keep the current of exchange in
motion SO that the gold reserve may
resist diminution. In so doing we
conserve our power to give credit to
do business on a large scale. The
United States has a large field in in
yestments abroad, which have hardly
been opened. Foreign commerce
must be kept up if this country
wishes to hold place in the world
of financial, Industrial and CONNER
cial Importance, through its credit
giving power.

HIGH WAGES

Prevailing wages in all lines of in
dustry in the state of Washington
are the highest that have ever been
known and yet despite this fact, the
agitators are constantly at work pro-
noting disputes between employers
and employees and pro-German agents
are busy agitating the open shop.
These disturbers are either pur-
posely or ignorantly working in the
interests of Germany and it makes
but little difference which is the
case. The results are the same.

GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF
RAILROADS.

Director General McAdoo has an
nounced that while the railroads are
under the control of the government
it is futile to impose fines upon them
for violations of the law and of the
orders of the interstate commerce
commission, and it therefore becomes
the duty of the director general in the
enforcement of the law and said or
ders to impose punishment for wilful
and inexcusable violations ;nereof up
on the persen or persons responsible
therefor.
1t is also announced that when the
prompt public transportation service
requires it, employees will be required
to work reasonable amount of over
time, but excessive hours of employ
ment will not be required.
Pending a disposition of the question
of wages and hours, all requests of
employees involving revision of sched-
ules or general changes affecting
wages and hours will be held in abey-
ance. The question of wages when de-
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1918-03-05

tern2ined will be made retroactive to
January 1, 1918.
The director general states that if
he is notified of the location of spe-
ciic supplies for transport to Europe
and the port or ports in the United
States to which such supplies should
be sent he will guarantee the necessa-
ry transportation, subject alone to
interruption from billiards and floods.
All officers and employees of the
railroads, says the Director General,
now serve the government and the
public interest only. He asks them to
get the spirit of this new era su-
preme devotion to country and an in
vincible determination to perform the
imperative duties of the hour, cooper
alton, not antagonism; confidence, not
suspicion; mutual helpfulness, not
grudging performance; just consider
alton, not arbitrary disregard of each
others rights and feelings; and an
earnest desire to serve the great pub
lie faithfully and efficiently. To save
America, to save the world from des-
potism, we must work together.
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1918-03-05
HOW TO PAY YOUR INCOME TAX

Pay your income tax, if possible, by
check, money order, or draft. This is
the urgent request of the bureau of
internal revenue.
More than 100000 persons this
year will pay an income tax. The to-
tai to be collected under the war rev.
enue act of October 3, 1917, in indi-
vidual income taxes alone is $666,000,
900. The vast majority of these pay
ments will be small amounts. If paid
as requested it will avoid thenecessity
for the issuance of a receipt, and save
much time and labor.
Taxes paid to deputies who are Wis
iting every county in the United
States to assist taxpayers in making
out their returns are sent to the col
lector of internal revenue of the dis
trict in which the taxes are collected
Checks, money orders, or drafts can be
handled without difficulty. Cash has
to be sent by registered mail or by
insured express.
In the conduct of the war Uncle San
is beset with many difficulties. You
can render one of his innumerablt
tasks less difficult by paying your in
come tax promptly, and by check
money order or draft.-From the Blu
reau of Internal Revenue.
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1918-03-05
LABOR AND FREEDOM.

The hope of labor lies in the oppor-
tunities for freedom; military domina-
ton, supervision, checks, bondage, lie
in Prussian rule. So declares the ex-
ecutive committee of the American
Federation of Labor.
This is a right and clear conception
of the issues involved in this war for
the working man. 1t is not through
German regime but through demo-
crazy that labor is to receive adequate
recognition and its realization of its
rightful place in the world.
All Americans are supremacy and
vitality interested in the war against
German autocracy and none more than
the working man of America To him
freedom means everything.
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1918-03-05

There is no doubt of the result, but
it depends upon the whole American
people and not alone upon our fighting
men. We who remain in safety at
home must do our part, work, econo-
nize, save and support the finances of
the government. Industry, saving,
and lending to the government are
now national duties.
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1918-03-05
THE PEOPLE ARE SAVING

Evidences are accommodating that the
habit of saving among the American
people, especially among the patrons
of savings banks and postal savings,
is outstripping the financial demands
made upon them by the government.
While no exact fgurers are available
at present, it is known that postal
savings deposits have steadily gained
during the year 1917, and notably
since the 1st of July Of that year,
which was after the first issue of the
Liberty loan.
The reports from savings banks also
show steady gain, and the same is
true of cooperative building and loan
associations.
Nor have the people of small means
been the only savers. 1t is estimated
that the savings of the whole people
of the United States, ordinarily S.
OO0,OOO,OOO to $6,OOO,00O, 900 annually,
were increased to S14,000,00O,OGO to
SIS, 000,0 100000 in 1917.
The response of the people to tn
national need of economy and saving
has been general and generous.

IMMEDIATE NATIONAL PROI1IBI-

The demand for immediate nation

where there were more than thous-

The test is on whether the autocratic
regime of Germany has bred better
men than the free institutions of this
country has-whether the independent
men of America can fight so well, can
manufacture such guns and airplanes
and other instruments and munitions
of war and put them into effective use
as can the human product of German
RUE.
