cnrdon.s Defense of khartunn.

For sheer duration General GOrdon'S
heroic defense of Khartum eXcclled all
modern sieges, for it lasted 81 days,
or just nine days shorter than the Rus
sian retention of Sehastopol. Unfor-
tunately, as we all know, its termina-
tion was a tragedy, emhittered by the
fact that a very few days later the
would-be army of relief arrived, only
in time to pick up the threads of a
pitiful disaster.

GENERAL SUGAR CONSERVATION
Is sugar necessary in the diet?

Is sugar necessary in the diet?
Neither cane bees sugar is necessary. In the
average American diet allthesugar needed may ord1-
nary be supplied by using honey, sirups fresh, pre-
served and dried fruits
What the general sugar saving rules?
Use all sugar sparingly and wherever possible use
other sweeteners. Be sparing Of CONNECTIONS and
sweet cakes. The American people last year spent
enough money for candy to feed all Belgium for two
years. Supplement sugar with honey and sirups
Cultivate a taste for fruit in it's natural sweetness
Sugar is fuel food. Get fuel from potatoes and
other starchy foods rather than from sugar. Sugar
excels them energy-food only because it pro-
duces energy quickly. They excel sugar since
they supply more than merely the fuel need
How may the ration be expressed in quantities
known to everyone?
Two pounds per month means about ounces per
week, little more than ounce day. This daily
ration is trfe more than tablespoons level full
It should be remembered that this is to include all
sugar used for any purpose whatsoever-for table
use cooking in ice cream and desserts, cereals or
fruit, in sugar sirups used on gridde cakes, etc.

TAXES TO MEET
THIRD WAR COST
McAdoo Would Add Enough
to Make 1919 Income
Eight Billion.
HIGH PROFITS RATE URGED
Proposal Is to Put Still More
on Excess Provisions of
Present Law.
HIGH PROFITS RATE URGED

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Secre-
tarY McAdoo today recommended in
letter TO Chairman Kitchin Of the
house ways and means committee
that the new revenue bill be drawn
to raise $4,000, 100000 by taxation,
one third OF the estimated $4,000
900 900 expenditures in the fiscal
year 1919.
He also recommended that "A war
profits tax be established at high
rate to be supcrimposed upon exist
ing excess profit taxes; that the nor
NAL income tax on unearned incomes
be raised. and that heavy taxatiun
be imposed on luxuries.
Treasury's Ideas Outlined.
The suggestions were given in re-
sponse TO letter from Mr.. Kitchin,
and constituted an outline OF the
treasury's ideas not only OF taxa
ton to meet The nations huge war

paring the way for floating of addi-
tional billions of Liberty bonds In
creasing the rate of norma taxes on
incomes from which Liberty bonds
are exempt. said the secretary, will
tend to make these bonds better in
vcstments, and to permit them 10
compete with industrials and munich
pal securities bearing higher rates
OF interest.
McAdoo made no attempt to speci.
~ the means of carrying out his
suggestions in revenue legislation
and did not intimate what articles
might be classed as "luxuries" fol-
heavier taxation. He stated. howcv'
er. that in many cases the present
excess profits taxes do not reacf
real war profits, for instance, where
a corporation with big earnings made
directly out of the war has also
big overcapitaiization and therefore
an apparently low rate of profit.
Based on Past Expenditures.
After explaining that his estimate
of $24,000,00 900 expenditures il
the fiscal year starting next Jpl,
| /, is based on expenditures in th
past, and calculation OF the rat

About one-third OF the sl2,500,
