The Treasury Department wants Congress to
give it a sufficiently large appropriation that it
may dig up billion or more of dollars wrong
fully detained by tax-dodging slackers An ade
quate corps of tax ferrets the department asserts
could unearth hundreds Of millions of dollars.
Already is the government and volunteer organi-
cations of citzenpatriots engaged in the business
of running down slackers who should be in army
service, deserters evaders and conscientious OBJ
jectors." There should be displayed the same
loyal eagerness to run down the dollar Stacker
the man, usually rich, who evades portion or
all of the duty his country has assigned him.
1t is a crying shame that in this hour of the
nations greatest need, when Congress is now
even considering the taxing of working peoples
jobs, and so many of the things they must buy
that one-eghth of all the money the government
hopes to raise by Federal taxation this year is
lost because of these dollar slackersl
There's no excuse for it. Congress must put
it within the Treasury's power to hunt down these
tax dodgers wherever they can be found The
fear of God must be put into their hearts, and if
it cannot be done any other way-why, there
Federal prisons and internment camps. The man
who lodges to save his dollars is thousand times
more contemplate than the coward who hides
to his hide from the German bayonet
"The Treasury Department needs expert ac-
countants and other special investigators to 60
suspected of having made 'doctored returns of
profits during the last year.
That's what the department says
Congress cannot refuse to let loose the ferrets
The people-the honest, patriotic, loyal Ameri-
cans-are in this war in deadly earnest Nothing
is as important to them as the winning "over
there" They willing to dig down deep and
often to pay for the victories our boys will
achieve in battle with the Huns They are just
willing to pay they to give their life
blood. 1t isn't right and it isn't the best policy
to ask so much of the loyal Americans while we
eyes to the duty-dodging of certain
rich And it is just much their duty to pay to
the last cent every dollar the government has asked
Of them in taxes as it is for the young man of
draft age to register and if his government
calls him.
What do you say, Congress-? Are you going
to try to save the miserable hides of these tax
dodgers? Or you coming out strong and
solid in support of the United States Treasury
in hunting and furnishing dollar dodgers?
Clearly, it is up to Congress!

"The Hour |. Come When Der tn. Ocean"

The hour is come when DER the ocean
From thee away, dear heart, ! SAIL
To prove to thee that my devotion
Shall triumph and prevail.
Alas! thou art so high above me,
Thee must worship and adore;
But thou, dear, wouldst not have me love thee
Loved l not flag and country more.
o more than brave thou vert to send me
Away from thee with cheerful nod
That to the death I might defend thee,
Thy home, thy country and thy God,
Where like the leaves our brothers falleth
Before the ruthless scythe of Death,
And, dying, pause awhile to calleth
To me, who now must answereth.
And wilt thou, dear, sometimes regret me,
Who dwell the foaming ocean Ger?
And, striving nightly to forget me,
But think of me, perhaps, the more?
For / shall see thee at all hours,
AS obey the master Mars,
Thy feet amongst the fragrant flowers,
Thy glory eyes upon the stars.
o may God grant thee strength to vanquish
Thy doubts, thy sorrows and thy fears
And close thine eyes to the world-anguish
Men would dissolve in blood and tears
Till from the rage of battle CORY,
And all the lust and greed thereof,
l win for thee deathless glory
To crown my everlasting love!

PARK PERMIT
TO MILITANTS
Therefore Demonstration
Today May Be Held. Le-
gally, at Statue.

II is the intention OF the authori-
ties not to interfere with suffrage
demonstrations. provided they are
not accompanied by disorder. Proof
Of this y evident In the granting Of
q permit TO the National womsn's
party to hold a meeting in Lafayette
Park today
The permit was issued without ap-
plication being made for II. Col.
Ridley In granting the permission
said: 81 have been advised that you
intend to hold a demonstration IN
Lafayette Park on Thursday, August
q. BY direction Of the chief Of en-
gfneers. United States army. you are
hereby granted permission 20 hold
this meeting. You are advised that
good order must prevail"
Commissioner Brownlow said that
because the permit had been issued
II would not be necessary 10 arrest
the women for violating the regula-
tions OF the park.
Adequate police protection will be
AFFORDED to prevent the women en-
gagged in the demonstration from in
turing themselves or eacn other. No
loyal person will interfere with them,
molest them, make any remarks 10
them or in any way engage in any
counter denomination"
In former instances The suffragettes
were arrested on the charge OF hold
ing the meetings without permits,
and thus violating the regulations in

Women's Work for Men. Wages.

AS result of the refusal of London omnibus
companies to pay women conductors the weekly
bonus of FIVE shillings paid to men for doing the
same work, $4,000 bus and street employees
strike the surface transit lines are tied
up and the threatened extension of the strike to
the tubes may deprive all London of transporta-
ton. AS it is, trifling wage dispute concerning
the equal remuneration OF employees has
suddenly flared up into menacing labor quarrel.
London is not so far from Broadway as to make
the transit strike there of only casual interest here,
says the New York World 1t has an important
bearing on the question of women's work for
mems wages everywhere, and likewise on the ques-
ton of womens capacity for industrial organiza-
ton The resort to strike measures which inter-
rupt the work of the British capital in war time is
10 be deplored. But that fact does not affect the
principle of equal wages for equal work which is
the subject Of the contention If womens labor
must be drawn on to keep the wheels of industry
going in war; it should be paid for at the same rate
as mems labor and kept free from any suggestion
of prohteering sex lines, and this not only in
rnunition factories but in all occupations where
women workers replace men who have gone to the
front.
The Washington herald., 1918-08-22

Mr.. Baker. The secretary is in a
rather precarious position and doubt
less finds that there are two or three
ways of looking at the question. After
all. We take II, from the difficulties
which the officials find themselves in,
1t will be a matter of individuality
rather than generality when it comes
to drafting the addition to the regis
uants. Some principle will have 10 be
applied to the entire class. OF course,
but it will be an out-and-out ques-
ton OF sparing some men in one class
and calling other men in the same
class Of business, the necessity OF CALL
ing them resting primarily on their
exact status in the business and their
homes. 1t Is plain to see. thus far
ahead of the direct application of the
amendment TO the draft law. that II
draft boards had to be careful before
in these matters, they will have to be
doubly careful from now on.

ARMY WILL ROAST
ITS OWN COFFEE
Sixteen Plants to Be Built in France
by Quartermaster.

American troops in France are 60
ing to have their coffee fresh roasted.
even II the government has to build
special roasting establishments for
that purpose-which is just what the
government is going to do.
Sixteen grinding and roasting plants
have been authorized by the Quarter
master Corps. It was announced this
afternoon. and sixteen more will be
held in reserve to supplement these
when demanded.
Besides furnishing coffee freshly
roasted and ground, the establish
ment of these plants will effect a
saving of about cents a pound. which
would amount of 5000 on 10000
pounds. and the army estimates its
consumption this year at 6l,O00320
pounds. The improvement in quality
is indicated by the opinion OF experts
that coffee deteriorates in quality
about 30 per cent when issued only
ten days after roasting.
Men will be trained specially for
these roasting establishments over
seas. A plant Is being erected for
that purpose at Camp Joseph f. john
ston. Florida. Meantime, Camp Meade
is giving instructions in roasting
methods. There are at present five
coffee roasting plants operated by the
army in the United States, and three
more are to be built.
