EXPERT OPINION.

For two decades before the war the
German government prided itself upon
the efficacy of its propagandists and
gloried in their accomplishments. They
spread abroad the myth of the super
nation, and carried the tidings of kultur
and efficiency to every land The Germans S
not without some reason, held themselves
to be the ablest Of propagandists and they
laughed TO scorn the efforts of those they
held to be their rivals.
Now, however, the Germans acknowl-
edge that they have rivals, and dangerous
ones. German papers are paying un-
conscious tribute to the efficacy of the
Allied propaganda, and are warning their
reader against the subtle arguments
which Allied airmen are presenting to
the German people They admit the
appeal contained in pamphlets scattered
by airplane, and add that arguments
''are so seductively Worded that anyone
who is not well informed may almost, il
not entirely be persuaded"
The German journalist wrote trueT
than he knew French and British
Italian and American flyers are scattering
pamphlets designed to influence the i'll
informed, that they will be glad to know
that their work counts. They do not

A BETTER TAX BILL. AND WHY.

The Journal Of Commerce SAYS OF the
War Revenue Bill Just reported by the
Wavs and Means Committee at Washing
ton that 1t Is clearly better and more
careful piece Of legislation than the loose
and botC Ched-up statue now IN effect
This estimate is justified by one change
in particular 10 mention no others. Cor
poration profits growing out OF war con
ditions are 10 be taxed as such by the
new bill through the simple and easily
workable process Of comparing present
net income with the average for the three
pre-war wears of l9ll-l3, inclusive, and
taxing the difference so per cent
The old exceSs-p profits taxes are retained
about as they were, but they are now
made secondary feature OF the scheme.
They will apply only 10 corporations
making large profits IN the peace years
and doing no better or no worse III the
present time such corporations are COM
parativelv few. the corporations proilLng
from the war are many. 1t ls the many
which now fix the rule in war taxation.
1t was the few which fixed the rule IN the
present Law, and in Il manner that made
its equitable application impossible.
This is an immense improvement
in itself, not only in respect to the revenue
but in respect to It's administration. Aud
for this change the country is indebted
to Secretary McAdoo, whose persistence
against an opinlonated element IN control
Of the Ways and Means Committee has
finally prevailed It las cost much delay
to the bill In its reporting, but is so much
the better commends the bill to the
approval Of Congress and the country
that the lost time may easily be made up.
This is the present promise 1t is most
important for the success of the new
Liberty Loan that the promise be made

Why Object TO Colonel House?

In the United States Senate, on Wednos-
dav. Senator Sherman of lllinois-whose
chief distinction since he entered the
Senate has been his presumed personal
resemblance to President Lincoln-Inade
a bitter attack on the administration, in
Guiding in the objects OF his denunciatlon
President Wilson's intimate personal
friend. Colonel T.. Nj. House of Texas.
lie seemed to regard Colonel House ms
an evil, a sinister threat against the
liberties of the people and a menace to
our free institutions,
Senator Sherman IS not the only public
man who looks askancc ut the Presidents
personal friend For some occult reason,
they do not recognize the right oil the
President Of the United States to have
personal friend. They resent the intimacy
that has prevailed between President
wilson and Colonel House ever since the
former assumed the office of Cmci ltXccu-
tive.
But why should not the President OF
the United States be permitted to have
n close personal friend? BY the eNGcncics
of his high official station he Is In large
measure separated from close confidential
relations with his fcllow-cltIzcns. There
are so many who come TO him IN the g'nse
of friendship. hut seeking their own per-
sonaI advancement that he must per
force hold himself aloof But that IS no
reason why he should not adhere TO AT
least one close a8I helpful friendship
which he knows is sincere and disIn-
tcrrstCd
And Colonel Houses friendship for tho
President is OF this character. For himself
he asks nothing. For his friends he asks
nothing. lie has never appeared AT the
Capital seeking official prefcrment for
anyone or urging legislation for his PER
SonaI benefit lie has kept himself at the
call II The President ready n all times To
extend his advice and assistance when

COMING HOME TO ROOST.

The Rhine cities are trembling in
