Sugar.

Under, the new sugar rationing
rules, which go into effect on August
1, domestic consumers are to be lin
tied to two pounds a month for each
member of the family, proprietors Of
eating houses can serve two pounds
with every ninety meals, and indus
trial users are restricted to 90 per
cent. of their consumption last year.
Moreover, the Food Administration
urges that "in canning and preserv-
ing fruit sugar be omitted, but added
later when the fruit Is eaten and
sugar Is more plentiful"
Unquestionably these regulations
will impose great Inconvenience on
confectioners, bakers and other in
dustrial consumers Of sugar, but there
10 no reason to believe that anybody
will be ruined by them. Already the
proprietors of such establishments
have shown much ingenuity In meet
ing the situation caused by the short
age of sugar. and there is no reason
to believe that they have reached the
limit of their capacity.
For individual consumers We are
not able to see any real hardship. In
this country it Is estimated that two
ffths of al, the sugar consumed has
been eaten in the form of candy. The
confectioner's is a great trade with
us, and under normal conditions 1t
deserves every encouragement. But
candy, wholesome and nutritious
though 1t Is, cannot be classified as
q necessary of life. 1t Is luxury,
and in the day of stress 1t must be
sacrificed. Certainly no American
man, woman or child will complain
because his or her candy allowance Is
cut down in order that the Allies
may have a little sweetening to meet
the minimum requirements of their
diets. What can be accomplished In
the reduction in the use Of sugar Is
astonishing; England formerly con-
sumed ninety-three and half
pounds a person each year; 1t has
brought this down to twenty-six
pounds, and there has been nothing
to indicate impairment of the public
health because of the sacrifice.
1t will be interesting to observe the
effect of the War Savings Stamp and
Thrift Stamp campaigns on the sale
Of candy. Thousands Of pounds Of
sweets are bought every day by chill
dren and their elders for immediate
consumption without regard to its
food value or anything else except
the satisfaction of the sweet tooth.
In many If not in most cases these
indulgences might well be omitted
for healths sake. If those who have
never hesitated about Buying a quar-
ter's worth of gumdrops, not for pur-
poses of Arctic exploration. can be
induced to put their cash into thrift
stamps instead, their stomachs will
be benefited and the philosophy Of
saving goods and services that un-
derlies one of the most interesting
financial operations or the war Will
be illustrated in the most gratifying
way.
On behalf of the Gamers, however,
we think a word should be said. Last
year they were taught not to be
stingy with sugar. If the Govern
ment wants them to economic It this
season 1t should publish directions to
that effect, which should include spe-
cific instructions as to the course to
be pursued. 4 new way of doing a
thing once learned Is not always cas-
lily acquired, and the gentlemen and
ladies who represent Mr.. Hoover in
the kitchens Of several million homes
should be told what to do.

This accounts for the broadening de-

such notes are being made by investors

The task OF framing the most compli-
Gated revenue law ever put together by
n war Government has come TO be as
controlling factor with the invest
ment public as the splendid showing
or the allied forces in the war area
This Is because investors long ago
made up their minds that the Hun
would be beaten and that the speeding
up Of our military machine at this
critical juncture would help along the
process In material way. But just how
the incomes of corporations and indi-
viduals could be made to bear double
the present rate OF taxation without i'm
pairing the nations productivity rep
resents the most difficult financial prob
lem that the American markets have
had to solve since the world war began.
Apportioning the Tax Burden.
Heavily increased taxation Is in
evitable. but If the Government is
to sell 2.000,000,0O0 OF new bonds
during the coming year the coun-
try's business cannot be crippled
or unnecessarily burdo ned That the
Congressional leaders have some real
ization Of this is evident from their re-
lection last week of the more radical
proposals which amounted to almost
CONSUMPTION OF capital. But the aver
age investor, although impressed with
the soundness of basic conditions,
before undertaking to extend his in
vestments must know what portion OF
his income the Government Is likely
to take through taxation. The income
of to-day commands the production
and the investments of tomorrow.
This is why the framing OF revenue
law affecting the incomes of a hundred
million people in the richest pro-
ducing area in the world is bound
to influence the investment markets.
1t costs more TO live in the United
States, owing TO higher living ex'
penses. and more to die, because of
the increased inheritance taxes, than
anywhere else in the world But II Is
worth all it costs. providing the job
Of putting Germany's militarists per-
manently out OF business is done as
efficiently as the greatest task 'or-
taken by any nation can be don, -

SUNDAYS DISTURBANCE.

Sunday morning when it became known that persons had made re- marks believed to have been aimed 1t the United States government and in defense of Germany, Newport be- came thoroughly aroused. Men who heretofore had remained silent came out and voiced their indignation. All day long the crowd remained in the vicinity of the court house eager to rec justice extended to the accused.
 Now is mighty fine time for Germans and prot Germans to learn to keep closed mouth. Now is a mighty fine time for Germans and proc Germans to become Americanized, come out in the open and declare their allegiance to the allied cause, shout for victory from the heart, buy war savings stamps and aid in every way possible to put down the tyranical hand that would love to lay hold of our beloved country as it raped the flower and crushed the youth and aged of Belgium and France.
 If the Germans and pro-Germans of this country do not do this they are going to find their way thorny one, and should expect the harvest they are reaping.
 Today two men are in the county jail. The Independent is convinced that neither of them would raise their hand in defense of the United States willingly. They are pleased to be in jail, for they expected something worse.
 A few weeks ago negro preacher, thoroughly alive with seditious ven- om, was arrested and placed in jail He was kept at the expense of the county for many weeks. When his case was investigated by the grand jury the negro was found to be gull ty of disloyalty, but there was no law with which to handle him. As a conse- quence he was liberated and properly strapped.
 We believe the two men in jail now will gain their liberty in the same manner.
 Feeling that time has been reach ed when disloyalty of any sort should be resented and avenged by all good Americans, the Independent believes that when men, white or black, are caught in the act of attempting to ob- struct the military program of this country, they should be promptly dealt with and not placed behind the bars, where they feel fortunate to have landed.
 This, however, should be done only after the guilt of the accused is thor oughly established.
 Without being unduly radical we share the belief of many that exam pes will have to be made of few Germans and pro-Germans who are disloyal to the core before they are made to cease their hellish work.
 The Independent is not advocating the use of rope, but does believe that so long as there is no law to punish these individuals they should be handled in a manner that will teach valuable lesson.
 The Chamber of Commerce will room be working for you. Are you workinR for it?

BEWARE THE HUN LIAR.

The Hun liar is abroad Tn the lana
 -insidious, resourceful, conscience less. Some of the lies are told with a cunning that deceives the most loy- al. Here are few of them:
 The Rumor: There are frequent suicides in cantonments, where the men have to "Pay for food brought in from the outside" or else starve to death. The Fact: This is German lie. The German circulating it has been interned.
 The Rumor: The steamship Chica- 20 has been sunk and thousands of soldiers lost. The Fact: This IS German lie. Secretary Daniels says it is false.
 The Rumor: The government is about to take any surplus food found in private homes. The fact: This is a German lie. Secretary McAdoo says. "This absurd and vicious rumor is wholly without foundation"
 The Rumor: The war will soon be over. The Fact: This has been said repeatedly since August, 1914. The war will not end until each one of us puts his whole strength into the fight.
 People should exercise more judg- .ment and patriotism at the Madaline theatre every night when the orches- tra plays the national anthem. It is a matter of regret that some persons persist in leaving the theatre while others are standing in reverence to our country. In fact, it is so strlk- ingly out of order that young man last week who was at home from a training camp said he was astounded to see even few people acting in this manner in his own home town. The "Star Spangled Banner" is sacred to every good American.
