The Germans should take the

France is left fat on her back and
Germany gets a long start Even

We are printing what Senator iii
man says in his criticism of the Char
lesion American. That is none OF our
business or of our quarrel but the
senator requests it's publication. We
can not print at this time the reply
of the Charleston American nor OF
it's Columbia correspondent but in
Justice to them we will print their
replies in due course and as soon as
we can in order to keep the record
Certainly Mr. Tillman wanted the
letter printed when it was thought It
would help his cause. and we can not
see why he should want to have II
withdrawn. and if he wants to deal
fairly and frankly and honestly with
the people he should not object to the
publication CT the facts. but the Only
conclusion to be drawn is that so long
as it would help his cause he was
willing to deal frankly and let the
people have the facts but when that
was deemed no longer necessary then
he gets angry because the facts ne
has are published any way Tha-
does not strike us as dealing frankly
with the people. And then after lay
ing out the governor he quotes from
a letter from him on self-abnegation.
This is a time above all others for
the people to work together and DENY
themselves and for as little politics
as possible.

WAR SAVINGS STAMPS NON
TAXABLE.

When preparing for the issuing
ct Thrift Stamps and War Savings
Certificates the national administra-
tration very wisely decided that
they should not be subject to any
taxes, federal, state or local. In
this respect they are entirely
unique, being free when almost ev-
erything else is subject to impost.
As the amount that an individual
may hold is limited to $1,000, this
concession does not deal unjustly
toward other security holders.
1t is simply an inducement to the
small investor to make an unusual
effort in his own and his country's
behalf by depositins as much Of his
surplus with the government as
possible. Those who buy these lit
tie bonds-and all should do il
should understand in advance Of
the coming days Of taxation return
in April that whatever Of their
earned savings or surplus derived
from economies is converted into
Thrift Stamps or War Savings Ger
tificates need not be recorded upon
the assessors blank. AS the inter
est and principal are payable in
1923, neither is it necessary to
make mention Of the investments
in the return to the income tax col
lector.
They are, as stated, absolutely
free and, as they also pay per
cent compound interest, are the
best securities that ore can buy in
these troubled times.

RED CROSS NOTES

Owing to the recent change made
by the government in handling allot-
ments Of our soldiers and sailors.
whereby the. payments were trans
ferred from the bureau Of war risk
insurance of the treasury department
to the quartermaster generals office.
some of the allottees are not getting
the amount they formerly received,
and some are getting none at all.
This came about by the automatic
cancellation Of allotments when the
change was made. In order to have
these allOtments continued as they
were formerly, the enlisted men will
have to make new application.
The civilian relief committee of
the Putnam County Chapter, Ameri-
can Red Cross. will gladly assist any
of our citizens in this matter free of
charge.
