Federal Agents and Others Are Now Busy With a View of Securing De-
 finite Facts.
DISTRIBUTION NEEDED
Purpose Is to Bring theN Men and Jobs Togeth- CT Wherever Possible
 to Do So.

Ralph E. Robertson. working for the Federal Public Service Bureau. has been very busy with a heavy correspondence with view of learn ing the exact lapor situation in Alas ka, and whether there is a need of establishing Federal Employment of fices in certain districts in Alaska.
 The task is not so easy as it might seem at first glance, as Mir. Robertson is beginning to find out, owing to a wide range of opinion concerning labor. It is said that there are many idle men at Anchor age, while some deny this, stating that whatever surplus there may be will be absorbed as soon as the sum- mer railway activities and other in dustries start up.
 At the last meeting of the Local No. A. Alaska Labor Union, a com, mittee was appointed to gather facts for Mir Robertson concerning the supply of labor in this district.
 The Government is trying to get accurate figures on the man-power and labor supply and demand throughout the Nation with a view of securing the distribution of labor and skilled workers where they are most needed and where they will pest serve industrial interests.
 Even with the ending of the war" said a resident today, in dis eussing the natter we shall never go back to the old plan of allowing I great congestion of labor in any particular district The Government plan of securing definite information md of a distribution of labor where t is most needed through Federal Employment offices, will be cOntin- led The days of the private em- 'loyment offices are a thing of the past. The war needs have brought about practical Socialism, the coop 9ration between the Government, the business men and the Labor Unions, md other great economic reforms which will be continued and ini- proved at the end of the war The clock of progress can never be turned backward again"

The New Revenue Bill

To get back to that tax business that Congress, Secretary McAdoo
and the rest of them have been pulling and hauling about SO much
lately-How about It'll What kind of a new tax do the people wantf
This without regard to what McAdoo, or Claude Ktehin, or anyone
else In Washington may want.
The people want a new tax bill and no mistake. 1t has been
plain from the start that enormous excess profits taxes, so called,
hitting the little stakeholder and the big stakeholder alike, were
bound to fail. 1t has been plain that they only penahzed efficiency
and initiative in business without gaining their one objective, /. E.
without putting the main cost where 1t belongs-on individuals who
can best afford to bear it.
The proper kind of schedule-the kind the country looks to Con-
gress for this time-is one that will work on the principle of gradu.
hted personal income tax solely and exclusively. OF course there will
have to be some sort Of a safeguard to catch the Stacker who says:
"I1l Just pile up those profits inside the corporation, In the form of
cash reserves or something, for the time beng.' This safeguard
may again be called an excess profits" tax. But it will have to
draw the line sharply and distinctly between the man who owns 81
per cent. of those piled up profits and the man who only owns the
right to two per cent. Of them.
Then there must be a provision to hit purely "war profits
the difference between what a given corporation makes this year,
under war conditions, and what 1t made several years ago, before the
war was thought Of. THIS KIND OF PROFIT IS MIGHTY UN-
POPULAR.
The congressman who can go before the people and show that his
thought along these lines is geared up with their thought Is the man
who is going to have their confidence. The same congressman, try
ing to protect the big ncomes-not corporate incomes, necessarily,
but the divided or undivided personal spending funds of q few mil
hopaires-is apt to be out the running. Or he is apt to be likewise
out Of the running If the folks back home get the notion that he
hasn't been thinking about or working at this problem at all.

Casualties

The casualty lists are coming in. Considered as a whole, and in
proportion to the victory, they are not bad. But considered indl-
yidually, each name set down there brings into some American home
a portion of the great world agony.
Parents, thinking backward from the grief Of today, say to each
other, "Only yesterday, it seems, we were buying playthings for his
baby handsi
And rebelious hearts question God himself, "Was there no bet
ter use for those hands, grown big and strongi Whyf Whyf
A new and true atroity story tells why he had to go overseas
to fight, to die.
In the first month after the Germans took possession of northern
France, a group of little children were playing in the street. The
Hun fends threw some bundles wrapped like toys among them. And
the children scrambled for them. The ''playthings' were BOMBS
which exploded as the children, laughing, snatched at them. Some
of les petites' were killed. And those that lived will never play
with toys again for they have lost their hands Ut is a comfort to
know that many of these children are now supported by American
funds
Fiends who can cOntrive such a joke can never be made over.
They must be wiped from the face Of the earth.
The boys numbered on the casualty lists have done their part to
stamp them out. Their short sodierlives have counted in the
noblest cause man ever fought for.
Mourn for themY Weep for themf We cannot help 1t. But
though we who abide safely at home and work for a thousand years,
we cannot measure up to the men who die to free the world from the
stain of Hun kulture.
unto each man his handiwork, unto each his crown,
The just fate gives
Whose takes the worlds life on him and his own lays down,
He, dying so, lives"

Lucy Helps

Miss Lucy McGinty not only is a mighty fine young woman, but
she Is q valuable citizen Of these United States of America. Since
they've taken to raising young women like Lucy in the sunfower
state people have stopped asking, What's the matter with Kansas ~
When Lucy McGinty's father died he left a widow, three chill
dren and a mortgage on the Kansas farm.
AS the boy wasn't old enough to step into his dads shoes Lucy
got into them.
Last year she put so acres into corn. AS she did all her own
blowing and culivating it was a regular mans sized job. The flies
were SO bad during the summer months that Lucy did her blowing at
night, having her sister and little brother bring a midnight lunch into
the field. No mar farmer in Edwards county got a better crop. Lucy
harvested 30 bushels to the acre, 1900 bushels.
Then last fall Lucy got out the old plow and followed it up and
down the wheat fields, sowing 100 acres in winter wheat.
She did the listing, disking and planting, too.
IL the weather is kind-we hope it will be-Lucy will grow
enough food to keep hunger away for a whole regiment of our soldiers
over in France for several months.
And Lucy will reap a nice fat bank account, which is as it should
be.
Much OF this threatening man power shortage on American farms
would disappear If there were more like Lucy McGnty in rural
America. There are some, of course, but not nearly enough. Lucy
herself says there are many girls in city stores and shops who could

last year corn crop to buy a couple of automobiles. How many shop
girls did as wel9

Is Your Body BoSSi

Do you rule your bodyf Or does your body rule youf
Whoever answers this question honestly can be his own for
tuneteller.
Some people are ruled by their headaches. They make the
members Of their families slaves to their headaches. They wreck the
business of the day, every time they indulge in one Of their precious
headaches.
Exactly what does q headache meant
It usually means that the victim is not keeping his body clean,
inside and outside or that he is over-eatingj or not exercising enough
or not getting enough fresh air; or that he is neglectng his eyes or
his teeth.
Is there any sense In sacrificing ones relatives or ones success
to Ignorance or carelessnessf
Some persons are ruled by their nerves. They consider nerves"
the most refined and ~highbrow Of human ailments. And they do
not like the new theory that ',nerves" is a form of selhshness. They
resent the new advicei ''TO cure nerves, forget yourself. II you do
not love any human being enough to set above and before yourself
then cultivate a gardener remember Belgium"
The victim of nerves seldom wants to forget himself.
