OUT WITH SENTIMENTAL
STRATEGISTS

/ q ONE newspapers are com
9 planning at General Per-
shing's censorship on the
casualty lists. They appear to
think they know more than
does General Pershing about
how the censorship should be
handled at the front. 1t is the
wrong attitude to take. The
way to win this war is to give
our field commanders the for
ces and supplies they need,
then give them a free rein and
tell them to whip the Hun. 1t
should matter not that the
commanders methods be arbi-
trary and at times may seem
cruel. War is cruel business
and it cannot be helped. If we
wage war on a sofa cushion
basis we will get no where. |
After the battle of Shiloh some
emminent men of the north |
wanted Grant removed from |
command because he sacrificed |
his men to win his detectives. |
But Lincoln wisely refused to
heed their wishes and sustained .
General Grant. This civil war
incident will show the futility
of trying to conduct military
campaigns on a basis of senti-
mentality. It cannot be done.
If we are to win we must ex-J
pect to fight it out and take the
gaff. We must expect at times
mistakes and needless exercise
of arbitrary power. We must
expect to have our sensibilities
We must prepare for
suffering and anguish. The
more resolute our people be-
come, the more they back up
the government irrespective Of
personal interests, the more
they cheer and the less they
complain the quicker will vic
tory come.
This is a war; not parlor
social. i

unusual times, which call for unusual

more varied and distinguished career

BOLSHEVIK NERVE

The recent appeal OF the boshc
wiki IN Russia for an armistice with
the allies is Il supreme piece OF Ell
irontery.
Far from being recognized bel
Iigerent at war with another coun-
try the bolshevik element is an or
ganiaztion OF German-paid assaS-
sins engaged in an orgy of murder
and violence against their own coun-
trymcn, Led by German controlled
degeneratcs and aided by German
forces, they have inaugurated a
reign Of terror in Russia compared
to which the French revolution was
a boys quarrel.
Pleas for help are pouring in to
the allied nations from the terror
stricken Russians at the mercy OF
the bolSheviki at the same time with
the ridiculous armiStice proposition
from the murdcrers themselves. 1t
Is the former which will be heard
and answered; the bolsheviki are
doomed.
As surely as Germany, the arch
ronspirator, is facing her day of re-
tribution 50 surely will these will
ing tools who at her instigation are
tearing their country to pieces meet

ice, VIII be their portion.

service is generally known.
There is no indication that the
need OF their service will be in any
way abated for a long time. Even
after peace, the period OF demobli-
zation with its long Stretche, OF en-
forced idlcneSs in barracks. will
hold more danger for the health and
morals OF our boys than lie in the
field.
1t is largely these great organiza-

PLAN COLLECTION OF
EIGHT BILLION IN TAXES

Washington, Nov 1.-THE same
spirit OF enthusiasm and co-opera-
tion which attended the Fourth Lib
erty loan and much the same meth
ods, including advertising in news
papers and local propaganda cam
paigns are planned as features OF
the nations next great iinancil task,
the collection OF about $1,000 OOOOOO
in taxes next year.
Internal Revenue Commissioner
Roper is making preparations for a
great drive in January and Febru-
AIRY to get the ten million persons
who probably will be subject direct
ly to government taxes to file their
returns early, accurately and will
ingly,
Even with our great tax gather
ing machinery already built up in
collection districts throughout the
country said Commissioner Roper,
I'VE can not gather 0O000O,OOO OF
taxes without the hearty co-opera-
tion OF the people who pay. 1t must
and will be their job as much as that
OF the government authorities.
On this principle, great educa-
tional movement is being planned,
without waiting for congres, to en-
act finally the revenue bill which
will determine just how much tax
is to be collected and from what
sources it is to come. Business men
i'll every community, banks, cham
berS OF commerce. trade farmers
and labor organizations. churches,
lodges, schools, and other organlza-
tions will be asked to undertake 20
show citizen, precisely how to figure
their taxes. what deductions from
income are permissible. how their
business records should be kept to
provide the best guides. for tax re
ports, and how TO make intelligent
returns. giving neither less nor more
than is expected under the law.
By such a system, officials hope
to minimize tax evasions. But to
guard against the incvitaglc slack
ing, information will be sought
through these channels to be used
