TAX ANTICIPATION CERTUFI-
GATES.

Aside from maintaining public
order and the defense of life and
property the most vital function of
Government is the provision of
| money, or an acceptable medium of
payment and exchange.
The financial needs of the gov
eminent, in war and after that for
the restoration of the peace footing
are very large. Heavy taxation is
necessary and the problem of meet
ing the federal taxes without affect
ing the equilibrium of money and
credits vital to the welfare of the ma
ton. To meet the condition of rails
ing six billion dollars of taxes in
1919 the government has decided on
two policies: % Installment pay
ment of the taxes on incomes and
profits-the first installment falling
due March Is. (2) The issuance of
tax anticipation certificates bearing
II per cent interest and maturing
at the time the taxes must be paid
In effect the tax anticipation plan
enables all who are liable for taxes
to the treasury tC rally their cash
means in the interval between Nov
Z, 1918, and March Is. 1919. and to
invest that cash in a perfectly safe
government security. at a fair rate
of interest, and in a form which will
be accepted by the treasury in tax
payments March Is. 1919. Under
this plan il will be possible to avoid
any disturbance of the money market
and credit conditions at the incl
dence of the enormous tax payments
next spring.
ha &c m n m
X. G. Elliott, chairman war tax ad-
visory committee National Associa-
ton of Credit Men;
I'VE have been buying treasury
certificates in anticipation of taxes
ever since it became apparent that
the amount of revenue produced by
the 1917 act would be very large.
War taxes are in the nature of
division of profits, with the gov
eminent in the position of pre-
ferred stakeholder. who must be paid
before there can be a distribution of
profits to the owners; therefore pro-
vision should be made to cover this
tax liability, the money withdrawn
monthly or quarterly and invested in
liquid form during the year in which
the profit is earned.
| Inc circuit Men ASSOcldllOL
since the passage of the excess profits
tax law has advocated the serial pay
ment plan and the creation of re-
serves by taxpayers; in other words,
anticipating the payment by invest
ment in certificates of Indebtedness
| which will relieve the demand for
credit at taXpaying periods.
These treasury certificates fur
nish a convenient form of income
producing reserve and by investing in
them during the taxable year to the
extent of the tax liability, makes each
year stand on its own bottom and
will tend to defer the issue of bonds
and permit an earlier reduction of
war taxes for governmental expen-
diture, bringing us closer to home in
our financing by reducing expansion,
thus creating sounder and more
stable credit condition"

MAN TO WIZ HONOR
Fort Hamilton Filler Got
Fifth German Plane
Yesterday.

WITH THE A M ERIC A N
ARMY IN FRANCE, May 81. :
Lieut.. Douglas Campbell, of Fort
Hamilton, California, won his
fifth air battle today when he
shot down a big German two
scatter, thereby becoming the
first ace" developed solely by
the American army.
There have been Americans
before him who who have won
the title of lace" which is &C.
corded only to fiiers who destroy
five enemy machines. But these
former American aces" were
members of either British or
French flying squadrons.
One of the significant deduc-
tions to be drawn from Lieut.
Campbell's victory is that the
American air Service in France
is being developed to a point
where it is becoming a ia ctor in
the fighting.

There was introduced and dis
cussed a certain tendency among
some of the moving picture pro-
ducing corporations to present
photo plays that distort condi-
tions in Mexico, siezing upon the
most offensive features of life
and playing them, as typical of
the country, to the irritation and
anger of the Mexicans them
selves, and to the detriment of
that kindly feeling that should
prevail along the border. 1t was
decided to send to the theatres in
Nogales a committee charged
with the duty of requesting elm
ination of all such Objectionable
cinematographic productions, the
committee appointed under the
resolution being H. M. Clagett,

Forty-fve German divisions so

Large numbers of reserves are
at Ludendorff's disposal to be
thrown into the present attack,
or to start a new battle, pre- s.
umably against Amiens.
The situatuation is serious, not
only because the German ha
advanced to a depth of 224 miles
in four days, but because it is
possible for them to throw in
their reserves at any time.
The spreading of the attack to
