KITCHEN DEPARTMENT MOST IMPORTANT
 ID SOLDIER
MEN TO WORK HARD AND EFEl- GENTLY MUST BE URGENTLY FED AND EVERY BRITISH OF TIGER MUST SEE ITO THE PROV BINDER OF HIS MEN

BEHIND THE BRITISH LINES IN TRANCE. July-The importance of the kitchen department Of the army Fcannot be overrated, for if men are to work hard and efficiently they must be decently fed For this reason the Kings Regulations" provide that it is the first duty of every commanding officer to see that the soldiers meals are properly and sufficiently provid- ed It is further ordered that an of ficer must inspect the kitchens and Icookhouses every day, while the same officer must visit the barrack rooms and mess tents during the breakfast, dinner and supper hours to find out if there is any cause for complaint.
 The kitchen establishment of a Brit ish army camp varies widely, under different circumstances. At garrison centers in France, the ocoBhouse is a large building shared by several units. and is under the charge of a sergeant chef who has been through a special course in military cooking It is his duty to superintend personally all cooking done in the regimental cook house. Each unit, in its turn, has a chef cook who is responsible for all the meals of his unit.
 If the stay at a particular spot is likely to be for any appreciable length .of time, good field kitchen is imprO- vised by digging a narrow trench for the fires, and placing the camp kettles above this. Sometimes a chimney is Blilt of sods
 For a stay of three or four days, reg ular field ovens" are constructed. An arch of sheet iron is erected and on top of this a layer of clay is piled With this oven it is possible to give the men roast meat for dinner as often as the joints are forthcoming from the supply column. Enough bread to feed a whcle battery can be baked in one of these ovens.

senators and representatives, which
 finally reports back a compromise
 draft on which both houses can agree.
 Inasmuch as this particular bill Ilengthens the long arm of the gov ernment tax collector so it can reach | into almost every mans pocket, one
 who attempts to be informed of what sacrifices he will be called upon to
 make that the world may become a decent place to live in, will do wen to survey the needs which have ! brought before the country this meas
 ure for taxing the high and low. | The American people Of course will | not only finance their own snare O. the war, but they will furnish in large measure. the monetary backbone 10 | enable the allies to continue. This new law is expected to make an equit- able distribution of the burden to all the people in just proportion to their share of the nations wealth. Results of the present laws have not been en- tirely satisfactory,
 Experience has pointed out weak spots.
 Estimates submitted to congress place the expenditures of the coming year at about SS0,OOOOOO,OOO It does not necessarily follow, however, that the actual expenditure will reach that ] figure. The house committee on ap- propriations is of the opinion that S24,- 900 O,OO0,OO0 will suffice. According to the original budget the expenditure for war purposes alone will be $24,476,- 2S1.77
 The fourth issue of Liberty bonds would be authorized at S16,000 .900,000 which leaves SS.O00, ,000, 900 to be se- cured through other means. It is with the raising of this $S,0O0, 100000 that the new revenue bill will be concerned. The problem confronting those draft ing the bill is just how to levy equit- ably upon the various taxable re- sources; what proportion of the amount is to be taken through excess profits taxes and income taxes and what by luxury, consumption and other taxes. At the precent time opinion is divided upon this subject, and while at first it was believed that an ex- cess profits and income tax would furnish at east s6,000, 100000 of the amount needed, it has now been prac- LlCdllN QBltEullN6Q lldI III NltM O2 llit reduction of profits, brought about through the increased cost of labor and materials, and also by government price fi1&ng, it will be impossible to raise more than $4,5O0 900, 900 through this means.
 Granted that these tentative figures prove to be correct, there then comes the question as to how the $1,500000 GOO is to be secured. It is positive that there will be a general increase in the tax rate, but just how this new rate will be applied must be determined by thorough investigation. The mat ter of exemption, the prevention of duplication in taxation and the iron ing out of those technicalities through which some people have escaped the payment of their just share must also be settled before the means of rais- ing additional revenue is definitely de cided upon.
 One thing seems positive. The law makers say they are determined that the nations business shall not be hampered. It also seems certain that the people of America will not be con- pelled to bear the heavy burden of taxation that has been placed upon the English

 WASHINGTON, Aug. 1l.-War taX- ation with all its problems. and it's benefits as we'll as it's evils. is the subject which will occupy Congress all most to the exclusion of all others when it reassembles, fO regular ses- siOns on August 24.
 A statesman of an older generation once remarked that government was nothing more or less than the power to levy and collect taxes. It is Obvi- ous that while the subject of war tax ation has the attention of congress # must necessarily command the atten- tion of the American people, baceuse the stability of government is meas ured chiefly by its revenue.

Passage of the bill by the house in substantially the form in which it comes from tie committee promises to be matter of course.
 h the senate, however, will come revision and reconstruction, often the subject of prolonged debate and even filibuster, which will put the bill more nearly in the shape in which it ulti- mately will become, the senate, as some historian has said, being the saucer in which is cooled the hot tea coming from the house" the delib- erations there are sure to be pro longed.

RoostIno Price Of Wheat,

[United Press Leased Wire service.]
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. 21--Farm-
ers do not desire higher wheat prices
provided the cost of things they buy
are reduced, according to A. @. Town
ley, president Of the non-partisan
league.
Denying the league would support
bills In congress for increasing the
wheat prices to $3.50 or SO a bushel,
Townley said:
'.In my opinion, these bills will
please the protiteers. These gentry
think they can boost prices all around,
If essentials are boosted Thus they
would place the farmer into their own
class. Farmers will not benefit from
So wheat If mill feeds, farm machin-
erv and other necessities continue to
advance.
Labor troubles might result, be-
cause wheat would cause the wage
worker to suffer. But II congress
does not give the administration pow
er to compel great monopolistic mid
dlemen and other profiteers to re-
duce prices, then in self defense the
farmer must get more for his wheat
or farm production will fall off,

ANOTHER STRAW
IN THE CURRENT
Socialists Demand That Austria Con-
slider Proposals Recently
Made by President
Wilson.

limited Press Leased Wire Service
WASHINGTON. Feb. 21.-When
Count Czernin again answers Presf-
dent Wilson's peace proposals in the
Austrian parliament, he will have a
new force to consider. This is the
belief here today following publica-
tion of United Press despatch from
The Hague telling of socialist de-
mand for consideration in Austria of
the American presidents proposals.
The feeling here is that the wedge
between Germany and Austria Is slow
ly but surely being forced. Whether
it eventually will lead to an actual
breach between the two nations is a
matter of conjecture, but in circles
close to the situation, the belief Is 1t
will not at this time. Military men
point out Austria cannot afford to
split with her powerful ally.
The demand of the socialists, how
ever. is straw bending to the cur
rent diplomats believe is forming in
Austria. It is an indication they de-
clared, that President Wilson's state
ments are having the desired effect
How much power the group Of So
cialists has to influence the govern
ment, is unknown here.
General WEAKNESS Of the war, to-
gether with a growing dissatisfaction
with proposals that Austria join a
new drive on Russia, is believed to
be responsible for the demands.

Urges People Not to be Shaken From
War Preparations by Peace
Talk Of Any
Kind.

CHICAGO, Feb. 21.-Urging Amer
ica not to be shaken from war preua-
rations by peace talk and citing poor
Russia's present condition" as
warning, Elihu Root today addressed
stirring letter to the congress OF
national service, in opening session
here.
"The Bolsheviki," Root wrote,
| 'twere very eloquent about peace
without annexations and indemnitles.
They filed the minds of the Russian
peasants with these ideas to such an
extent that they stopped fighting and
making munitions When they got

MANY had no intention of making
such peace.
"She wanted the Baltic provinces
of Russia, and she seized and pur-
poses to keep them.
I'VE must beware Of anything In
the remotest degree approaching
that"
Roots position as chairman Of the
American commission sent to RUSSIA,
lent his warning added gravity IN the
minds of the 1.500 delegates today
"Sincere and constructive criticism
on the conduct of the war Is a useful
thing" continued Root. "But we all
must be careful that neither short
cominss nor criticisms tend in the
slightest degree to divert or decrease
the heartiness with which we all sup
port and reinforce the president and
his officers carrying on this war"

This was the warning today of Mrs.

partment.
Don't try to be conductoresses or

It romentic," Mrs. Richards SAID.
"There are plenty Of floor walker and

can be handed over by their patent
leathered masculine possessors.
II have just returned from New
York where ] saw women running
street cars. I found the picturesque
conductoresses working from tWeIve
to fourteen hours, undergoing heavy
strain and under very unfavorable
moral conditions.
There is no pressing need Tor
women rushing into such jobs now
Only three per cent of the male labor
has been affected by the draft so far. "
