Potsdamnation!

Potsdamnatlon!
That's word coined by Alexander
Cairns, the great lecturer to be heard
here soon at the Chautauqua.
What a world of dynamite and de-
struction is wrapped up in it.
1t tells IN single word what others
are taking pages to express-the real
American opinion of what Germany
has done to the world.
It's discussion is one of the things
which makes Cairns messages for
Chautauqua audiences more vital this
year than they have ever been, for he
has been specially instructed by the
government departments in frst-hand
information that Uncle Sam wants
presented to the people.
Cairns is an old Chautauqua favor
ite. His lips sparkle with native Irish
wit, and he can't get the spirit Of fight
out of his soul. The things he is for
he upholds with all his might, those
in which he does not believe will find
him fighting to the last.
His appearance on the platform is
always the signal for applause, for
people everywhere have heard him
and love him, and are eager to hear
him again.
Teacher, traveller, lecturer, author
and preacher, he is widely known as
"both the funniest and most serious
man alive" For four years he was a
teacher in Japan and later a college
professor of English in America.
Since the Chautauqua platform found
him out, he has been kept busy
spreading his magnetism under the
big top. And this year, with his vital
war message, he is more popular than
ever.

TRAINERS TO AIM
AT BIC PROFITS
New War Tax Bill Will Be
Drawn Up Soon.

convinces the Members Of Congress
That Enactment of Revenue Legls'
Iation Before Adjournment 10 I'm
Ieratlve-Kitchin Calls on Treas
ury Department For Data-ln-
creases to Come From Wealth.
Washington, May 90. - Congress
has yielded to President Wilson's de-
mand that a war revenue measure
be enacted at this session.
There still was reluctance in some
quarters to believe immediate rev.
enue legislation imperative, but plans
for midsummer adjournment were
abandoned and both Democratic ana
Republican leaders expressed their
determination to go at the task OF
passing a war tax bill with will.
A suggestion by the president that
most of the new taxes probably would
fall upon incomes, excess profits and
luxuries and that profiteers could be
reached in this way was greeted with
cheers and congressional leaders said
later the money needed would come
from these sources.
To initiate the bill, it was an
nounced that public hearings would
be begun early in June by the house
ways and means committee, to be
followed by cooperation in its draft,
ing with the senate finance commit
tee. Presentation of the measure to
the house in July was regarded as
assured.
One of the big problems to be work
ed out first is the proportion of new
taxes to bond issue authorizations. In
the neighborhood of $20,000,000, 900
must be provided to meet expenses
of the coming year. In a memoran-
dunn recently given to members of
congress, the president suggested
that 40 per cent should be raised by
taxation. This would mean bond is
sues for some $4,000, 100000 and
doubling of the approximately $4,000
900, 900 levied in taxes this year.
Representative Kitchin, chairman
of the ways and means committee,
announced that he had called on the
treasury for a great deal of data for
submission before calling the com
mittee together The entire commit
tee will participate in framing the
measure.
Mr. Kitchin said the increases from
the income and excess profits taxes
will be effected by readjusting excess
profits ami income surtaxes and that
the bill will double the aggregate re-
ceiyed from these sources without
doubling the rates. He said there is
little room to lower the $1,000 and
$4,000 incomes, respectively, now al
lowed single and married persons,
Those who have made large profits
as the result of the war, he declared,
will be especially aimed at. At least
two weeks of public hearings are
planned, and Mr.. Kitchin said he did
not see how the bill could become a
law until about Nov. 1.

Musicians Assist
Reader at Chautauqua

Misses Marie Elizabeth Viol and
Margaret Ringgold, violinist and
pianist, are two accomplished musi-
clans who will assist Hettie Jane
Dunaway in her Interpretation of
"Just Plain Judy" from Daddy Long
Legs" during the Chautauqua. This
is one of the big hits of the Chautau-
qua entertainment and the musical
setting makes Miss Dunaways dra-
matte ability doubly effective.
In this number Miss Dunaway pre-
sents whole scenes from the clever
little drama which she has chosen to
present to her audience, reading many
parts and making fourteen changes of
costume during the course of her en-
tertainment.
"She is one of the few women on
the lyceum platform" says the Leader

Enemy Submarine.
London, May 25.-The British arm

with American troops on board, has
been torpedoed and sunk, according
to an official bulletin issued by the
British admiralty.
Fifty-six American troops on the
