JOHN D. PAYS THIRTY-EIGHT
MILLION INCOME TAX

John D. Rockefeller was recently
reported as having paid thirty eight
million dollars income taxes upon his
income during the past year which
amounted to $130,OOO,0OO. Deducting,
from this fabulous private income the
tax dues of the $38,0O0,000, the poor
old man still retains a balance Of
S92 2,000,0 ,000-incOme for one year. 1t
is superfuous to moralize upon the
unsoundness of social-economic con-
ditions reflected in these figures
figures, by the way, which occur in
many a multi-millionaire's annual
accounts, if in reduced proportions.
1t is to be fondly hoped that the new
income laws will pay special atten-
ton to the incomes Of hundreds of
these nabobs, especially such of them,
as are amassing their stupendOus
fortunes from the war.

HEALTH INSURANCE NEEDED
FOR WORKERS

Detroit, Mich.-That health insur-
ance is a pressing need not only for
the lesser paid workers and their
families but even for the more pros
porous wage earners, under present
conditions, is disclosed by a recent
survey Of sickness in Highland Park,
a suburb of Detroit
In this town of $4,000, whose indus
trial life centers in the Ford Motor
company plant, the average wage is
unusually high. The majority of its
citizens own their homes. Yet in this
"model town" a house-to-house can
vass by the Detroit home nursing
association shows that during 1917
one family out of every four had to
face "the problem Of acute illness"
About One-fifth of the illnesses were
those of wage-earning men, usually
the main support of their families.
These breadwinners lost on the aver
age 55 days from work and $221.50
in wages through their i'll health, in
addition to their extra expenses for
doctor, medicines and the like.
Fully 80 per cent of the sick per-
sons failed to receive adequate care.
Hospital facilities and proper nursing
care, it was found, were conspicuous
by their absence. Only about 10 per
cent of the sick people went to a
hospital. Perhaps 10 per cent had
trained nursing and another 10 per
cent a practical" nurse. Less than
half of the maternity cases visited re-
ceived adequate" care.
While other Investigations have re-
vealed the severity of avOidable suf-
fering and destitution by sickness
among wage earners receiving less
than 500 month, the Highland Park
survey finds that the excessive drain
upon the family earnings and the
lack of proper medical treatment in
sickness indicates the need of health
insurance among comparatively we'll
to-do workers as well. Universal
workmen's health insurance as pro-
posed in America will provide at
small cost to the insured not only
cash benefits to tide over loss of
earnings, but also adequate medical,
hospital and nursing care, maternity
benefits, and a financial incentive to
disease prevention.

DON'T EXPECT THE CHILDREN
To- DO 1T ALL

Owing no doubt to the good work
of those hustling, keen young boys
and girls who have so generously
given of their time and their pennies
to the thift campaign, the impression
has been created in the minds of
many that War Savings Stamps are
for children only.
Let US stop to consider the matter
for a moment.
The Congress authorized an issue
of $4,000 100000 W. S. S. to be sold
in 1918. The purpose of the Stamps
was twofold: 1) To get money for
the Government for war needs; (2)
to instill the habit of thrift in the
American people and by the practice
of thrift save labor and materials fo1
the Government.
Can We expect the children, splen-
did workers that they are, to account
for S2,OOO,OOO,0O0 Of Stamps?
Do we consider that the children
alone of all our population need to be
inculcated with the thrift idea? Are
they the only spendthrifts?
Certainly not.
War Savings Stamps are for every
one. No one, be he a millionaire or
be he the humblest laborer, can say
truthfully that he is not interested
in W. S. S. and the savings program
that they stand for.
There are, indeed, few men and
women in the land unable to save and
economize more than they do now
If they want to be listed among the
patriotic people of the land they must
save and economize more than they
do now. The winning of the wal
with the least possible sacrifice de-
mands this, for there are not enough
labor and materials for the Govern
ment's war needs and for the use o.
the spendthrifts.
Cut those useless expenditures
All of US have them. Remember tha
our boys in the Army and Navy d.
not expect luXuries and do no
grumble even if they do not get al
the comforts that they are suppose
to get.

The voters of Licking county are
fortunate in securing as a candidate
for Sheriff, Elijah A. (Lige) Bryan.
He was born 36 years ago on a
farm east of Newark where he was
raised and where he received his
common and high school education
which afterwards was supplemented
by a business course in Merideth
Business College of GAINESVILLE, Ohio.
Mr.. Bryan is now married, has
two children and resides at 33 Union
street, Newark, Ohio, and for the
past twelve years has been employed
by the Ohio Electric railway COM
pany and during that time has rem
dered valuable service to the COM
pany and has made hundreds of
friends.
A county officer should be a man
who knows how to deal with the
public, one who is courteous and ac-
commodating, yet is not afraid to do
his duty.
Mr.. Bryan in the discharge of his
duties with the Ohio Electric rail-
way company for the past twelve
wears has been constantly in touch
with the public and his experience
and courteous treatment of the peo-
pie in itself qualities and recon-
mends him for the office he seeks.
His many friends recognize him as
being the man for the place and will
be pleased to have the opportunity
of supporting him at the nomination
on August 13, 1918 and predict his
nomination and election to the office
of Sheriff of Licking county.

STILL FRIENDLY TO ORGANIZED
LABOR

According to a notice published in
the Houston (Texas) Labor Journal,
the brewers of Houston who are no
longer permitted to manufacture and
sell beer on account of statewide
prohibition, and who are now en-
gagged in the manufacture of near
beer, soft drinks and ice, are still on
friendly terms with organized labor
This is quite a contrast to the posi-
tion taken by many manufacturers of
other industries who are on the side
of the Prohibitionists and who have
no use for organized labor.
The Henke Ice and Refrigerating
Company, the Magnolia Brewery and
the American Brewery are the only

Merchants, like all others, must be
Judged by their actions. If a mer-
chant advertises in every paper but
those patrOnized by the tOilers, it
would seemingly indicate that he is
not very friendly with this class or
overanxiOus for their trade. Along
this line it is a fOregOne conclusion
that those merchants who do adver-
tise in the columns of the paper de-
voted to labor, feel friendly toward
this class, and desire their trade. 1t
will, therefore, pay you to read the
in this paper, and by
doing SO ascertain who the merchants
are who feel friendly toward you
and appreciate your patronage.

Both the War Department and the

Ralph Parlette says this about Linz
coin Mcconnell: II wish everybody
who don't like lectures could hear
him. / wish the king who never
smiled again would sit in on Me-
Connell outburst He can crack the
paint on a wooden Indians cheek. He
can get juice out of a tombstone, and
flowers out of a snow bank. He can
read a page from the Congressional
Record and conyulse you, or a page
from Webster's Unabridged and make
you scream.
ellis lectures are a series of ter
rife broadsides, satirical stories, I'M
presentations and stage gymnastics,
He enjoys his lectures as much as
anybody. He smacks his lips-the
sentences taste so good. Remember,
he is tremendously serious. You laugh,
yell and cheer; you wipe the tears
out Of your eyes and realize you have
risen. 1t was a sermon all the time,
with the fun and side show just to
save things. The audience has been
shot, slugged and spanked, but every
one sees it was needed. Mcconnell
has a way of hitting the hardest ticks
as though he were trying to commute
the punishment. He looks down over
the audience and lovingly watches the
villains die"
Mcconnell will lecture here twice
the last day of the Chautauqua.

AUTO ACCIDENT AT wEsTBY
Car Struck on ST. Paul R0ad-Driver's
Leg is Broken

Albin Berg, while crossing the Mil
waukee track near the Exchange ware
house Friday morning, met with sad
accident that might have proved fatal
to him. 1t seems that he did not see
the train which was switching in the
yards, or if he did, he undoubtedly
thought he could get across the track
befort the train reached there, and
was caught and dragged a couple of
rods before the train was able to stop.
The automobile is what appears to be
a total wreck, Albin escaping with a
broken leg. He was taken immediate
ly to the Galstad home and given med
zeal care. That he escaped being
