School Workers
to Encourage Thrift

New Orleans, La. March 10 1919.
The plans of the government work
ing through the Federal Reserve
Bank of the Sixth District to each
thrift in Louisiana are developing
and the War Savings Committee of
the state is cooperating with the
school authorities and will work
along all lines for the instruction of
the people, especially the younger
people, in methods of saving and &C.
emulation.
The saving is to De done through
the War Savings Stamps, as it was
turing the war, but the aim is, not
chiefly to secure money for the war
expenses, but to bring about condi-
tion wherein every citizen will ac-
cumulate money and be holder of
the securities of the government. In
return of course, the government will
secure the money, to be paid back
with interest when the securities
mature.
At a conference between T. H.
Harris, State Superintendent of
schools, Nicholas Bauer, acting SUI
perintendent of the New Orleans
schools, Felix E. Gunter, State Di-
rector, William L. Raymond, State
Secretary, DR.. Roswell W.Rogers,
Vive-Director and A. B. Campbell of
the department Of education of the
National War Savings Society, a
plan has been arranged for carrying
on the work in 1919 in Louisiana.
1t was agreed that first work will
be teaching thrift in the schools and
for this State Director of Schools
will be named on recommendation of
the State Superintendent and will
work under his supervision and a
text book will be supplied to the
teachers. Alb expenses of the work
are to be borne by the Federal Re-
serve authorities.

Only Taxes Actually Paid
Deducted from Incomes

No 1918 city taxes may be deducted
from income tax returns for 1918 I'm.
less a regularly established accrual ba.
sis was in use by the taxpayer. This
information was made public Tues.
day by J. Y. Fauntleroy.
Because New Orleans taxes ord.
narily payable in August 1918, could
not be ascertained as billed and paid
until after January |, 1919, the CUES
ton arose whether these could be de-
Quoted from tax liability for the
year 1918. The reply received from
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Roper was as follows:
"Only taxes actually paid in 1918
may be deducted for that year unless
taxpayers accounts, are kept and re-
turn made on accrual basis and taxes
were actually accrued on the books
Soldiers and sailors with incomes
in 1918 of $500 or more must pay IN
come taxes, was the further state
ment made by Collector Fauntleroy
This means that majors and those
ranking higher in the army and leu
tenant commanders and those rank'ns
higher in the navy must pay tn. tax

''Everywoman' Tonight
at the Evangeline

"Everywoman," the mighty sDecta
Gle which Henry w. Savage will OF
fer at the Evangeline Theatre to-
night, represents the very last w0ru
in amusements. 1t IS designed to
please the most exacting aud nifer
diversion to the most faded taste
"Everywoman" succeeds because it
is not real morality play. Its char
acters are categorical and its story
points moral, but il IS far from
anything like the medieval morality
play. 1t is extremely sophisticated
though its sophistication is far from
subtle. 1t has satire OF the kind that
! the ordinary mind penerrates and en-
joys without difficulty. 1t has some
poetry. But more directly contribu-
tory to its success. it has pretty wom-
Ell IN pretty costumes against a back
ground of pretty stage pictures Its
appeal to the eye is continuous and
potent.
Each of the characters in this play
represents human trait. There are
no big individual parts hat tower
above the rest. throwing all else into
the shade. The play is balanced.
Everybody does his work. There is
no weaklink in the cast. All you see
is strength, suggestion, symbol. les
son. reproof, reminder-cach being
true to his nature
You are sitting in the grand stand
watching yourself go by.
Every man is composite. He is
both man and woman. he is virtud
and vice, he is youth and old age.
beauty and modesty. conscience and
flattery, truth and love. bluff and
stuff puff and passion. wealth and
witless society, age and greed. char
ity and vanity. vice and virtue. priest
and populace, law and disorder. gro
vel and sneak. And yet in this play,
"Everywoman," there is enough COM
edy to give you rest; enough hyplay
to throw open the windows and let
in the fresh air; enough witchery of
glrls-so the curtains are parted and
the sun streams in from the East
carrying the perfume of life's morn
ing.
Problem plays that send the audi
ence away dumb, confused, undone.

against all Brittania's might on land

The Irish and the friends of Irish
freedom in America are not trying to
embroil America in a war with Eng
land. Ireland has by more than three
fourths of her population declared her
self a Republic, has a government
ready to function, but is prevented
from doing so by an English army OF
occupation of close to two hundred
thousand men, and all she asks is that
America give her official recognition
This is absolutely Americas business
if she so chooses to do. If war ever
comes, it will be because of English
avarice, English arrogance and Eng
lish hypocrisy.
Mr.. DeValera, the elected President
of the Irish Republic is as Christian {

and just as law abiding. Article Y. o.

situations as to lack or patriotism and
divided allegiance. Every warfrom the
Revolutionary to the last great war,
proves even TO the unwilling, that the
American Irish brand of patriotism is
not confined to lip service and
use of the pen, but leads to self sacri-
fee even unto blood. There are no
shakers among the Irish, and, of all
the immigrants that reach u shores,
they are the most grateful, and are
Americans as soon as they land. 1t

denounce oppression and robbery, he
must not dare express himself in sym
pathy with any Nation that desires
freedom from English misrule, lest
Johnny Bull get angry and administer

horrible crime to ask England to give
ireland what she has wanted and
fought for during seven centuries what
almost eight-tenths Of their peoplenow
demand, self-determination, - how
dreadfully Un-American-why, to free
little Ireland would mean to the Rev.
Mr.. Lanius the destruction of the
great British Empire. 1t is unthink-
able to him that the robber make res
titution, that he give back what he
, stole and holds only by force, that
because the robber is strong and you
wish him to be a friend, you must
stifle your sense of justice and COM
promise especially when the victim is
weak. England's empire was founded
in robbery and is maintained by ply

India-yet Mr.. Lanius, Preacher of
the Gospel of Christ, n who by pro-
fession is supposed to love justice and
hate iniquity, defends the robber, and

FATHER O'SULL|VAN RE.
PLIES TO REV. LANIUS
Dear M. Editor:

Dear NJ. Editor
You have seen Tit to copy from the
St. Louis Republic and publish in an
issue of your paper last week an ar
ticle written ky the Rev. c. Y, Lanius
Pastor Of the Methodist Church of
this city. As | am an American horn
in Ireland who believes in an Irish
Republic, ! ask the favor of your space
to answer this Clergyman who graf
uitously goes out of his way to
impugn the patriotism of every
person in whose veins flows
Irish blood, and who is not content
that the land of his or his ~forefathefs'
birth be still a slave nation. Surely
this self-appointed American spokes-
man knows or ought to know that it is
not only the Irish in America born in
ireland, but practically fifteen nil
lion of descendants Of the Irish, to-
gcther with eighty million or more of
American citizens, who ~sympathize
with Irelands cause and see no reason
why she should not be free. America
speaks through Congress, and both
Houses almost unanimously declared
for an Irish Republic and asked oul
delegates at the Peace Conference tt
bring this question befoer it. Can Mr.
Lanius give any reasons why IRELAND
should not be free? Does he know any
thing of Irish history? l doubt
very much because the man that call
Ircland's grievances against England

history or prejudiced against the rae

belligerents were c louded a
few of her sons, when they
saw their a~rch-enemy England in dis
trees, asked Germany to help them
free themselves from her hated yoke?
1t is false to say that Sim Fem ever
plotted with Germany after America
entered the war, and ! challenge Rev.
Nj. Lanius to give me the name of a
single American-Irish Citizen who
was convicted by the United States
Government for disloyalty OIL trea-
or it's religion,-any of which i'll BELTS
a minister of the Gospel. John Bright,
Lord Acton, Gladstone, all eminent edu-
Gated Englishmen knew far more a.
bout Ireland that does the Rev. Mr..
Lanius, and they state that Englaud's
government of Ireland, her system of
prosecution for ovcr seven hundred
years stand alone in solitary infamy
among the crimes of mankind. What
reason is given by our eminent critic
why our voices should not be raised
here in America in behalf of Ireland?
Oh, horrors, listen all you fellow Am
orleans. We American Irish are con-
demned as hyphenates, but, behold, it
is merely the east of the kettle calling
