A British submarines crew which
recently had a narrow escape from
sinking knows, because II hal the ex-
perienoe and came out alive. From dry
ofY1clal sources has been culled this re-
markable story OF human endurance
and nerves OF steel.
The British undersea craft was cruis-
ing on the North Sea when 1t sighted
several German destroyers, so near that
II was forced to dive at the greatest
speed.
So rapid was the descent that the
submarines helm jammed. Before the
commander could right his craft, vio-
lent explosion, caused by a depth
charge fred by one OF the German
boats, shook the vessel. So severe was
the conclusion that the crew were
lifted off their feet.
Unable to stop the descent OF the
submarine, tho commander was forced
to dive to the bottom OF the sea.
A hasty examination showed that the
boat was undamaged except for the
Jamming Of the helm. There was
nothing to do but lie quiet on the bot
tom and hide from the pursuers the
crafts whereabouts.
There came second explosion, as
violent as the FIRST.
All motors were stopped and even
tho yentllating apparatus was shut Off.
During the 20 minutes following the
craft was again carefully examined,
without signs Of a leakage.
Suddenly the stout hearts OF those
on board were shaken TO the limit Of
their endurance.
A loud, scraping noise swept the YES
sci from stem to stern. II was a
trawlers sweep, trying 10 locate the
submarine. II IL caught on the con-
ming tower or entangled a rudder, the
men were lost.
Slowly the scraping passed along the
boat and then ceased. after what SEEM

found steps were taken % put her In

FOR THE EASIER PAYMENT OF WAR TAXES.

n AMENDMENT to the War Tax Law which shall provide
"a that Income and Excess Profit Taxes may be paid in Install
ments, at dates extending to the end Of the present year, has
been urged by The Evening World Is q measure Of relief to which the
country is entitled and by which the Government is certain to gain.
The suggestion has received strong Endorsement. Senator
Watson Of Indiana and Representative McFadden Of Pennsylvania
have introduced, in their respective Houses of Congress, bills which
aim to give payers of income and excess profit taxes a longer time in
which to pay the full amounts OF these taxes.
Such an arrangement would prove an immense boon to many
business concerns and individuals who could not have foresecn, during
the greater portion of last year. the necessity Of meeting such e1traor.
binary leves upon last years incomes.
At the same time it would obviate the disturbance to business and
finance threatened by the withdrawal, all at once, of sums Of money
sufficient to cover the large proportion Of these taxes certain to be
paid toward the eleventh hour.
Another powerful argumen. for an easier schedule o, income tax
payments:
The Third Liberty Loan will be iloated next month.
During April and May-tf the final date for the full payment of
income and excess profit taxes remains fixed at June 15-muny
having cash on hand for these war taxes to think Of buying more
Liberty bonds.
Whereas il the payment Of the war taxes could be distributed
over a longer period, these same Americans would be in a far better
position cheerfully and confidently to subscribe for the new bonds.
And the same applies to the continued, uninterrupted and in
creasng habit of buying War Savings Stamps.
1t has been the wise policy Of the Government to distribute war
burdens SO that heavy loads may be taken IN gradually and carried
without strain.
Let Congress hasten to extend that policy to the collection of
war taxes. ..
A measure providing for the payment Of income and excess profit
taxes in installmentS extending to December should be passed at once

A POTATOES.

noTAToES have not been bringing prices high enough to satisfy
the farmer. Since the first Of January, the Federal Food
Administration reports, Wholesale dealers have been shy about
buying potatoes save in small quantities. The potato market is sngu-
,arly sluggish.
One reason for this is undoubtedly the persistence Of the belief
established in the minds OF housewives by the experiences Of last
year. that potatoes cost too much to take their old place in the family
bill Of fare.
The fact that the potato can again be regarded as an article Of
food both plentiful and cheap is only gradually impressing itself upop
consumers.
At the present time. when Americans are bcing urged 10 roduce
still further their consumption Of wheat, one Of the best things thov
can do Is to get back the potato habit, There is no better food to
take the place Of wheat and it only needs the encouragement If vi1s
demand to BRING the potato back into the market in the old abund,
ancc at low prices.
Eat potatoes 1t is one Of the best ways to free wheat and meet
tho urgent demands Of war on the food side.
