The state of New Mexico is faced
with the problem of raising more
taxes or Of leaving undone things we
arc obligated TO do
The federal government has refused
to make provision for caring for the
returned soldiers, While the duty
really should fall upon Uncle sam,
who drafted the men into service, the
fact remains that employment must
he found for them when they are
mustered out With the failure of the
federal government to assume respon-
sibilily, the state government must
assume that responsibility and act
promptly.
There are federal road ana oduca-
tional funds TO be matched by the
state, and there is imperative need for
more money for carrying on the pub
lie schools.
Property is taxed TO the limit Be
yond a certain limit it will not pay
the investor, Real property in Now
Mexico now does not yield an atuac-
tive income, and for that reason there
is no building operations of conse-
quence in sight anywhere The rail-
roads cannot he made to pay higher
taxes, because the federal government
has established basis of valuation.
As the journal pointed out yester-
day morning, there are only a few
ways of meeting the situation, the
quickest of which is to collect the de-
lnquent taxes, now nearly two and a
quarter million dollars, That such
condition should exist is a public
scandal.
\ large amount of money could be
raised by taxing incomes. There are
many people in New Mexico with in
comes above thousand dollars who
own no taxable property, They pay
no taxes, not because they are unwill-
ing, but because they have nothing
against which taxes are levied Most
of these are salaricd people, but many
of them are doctors and lawyers and
members of other professions. Some
of these have large incomes.
The proposition to tax gasoline and
oil, for the purpose of having it in
spected, savors very strongly of po-
litical graft The motive back of it
is creation of another political job
with number of sub-jehs.
What this state now needs is not
more political jobs, but revenues from
which payment can be made for tho
things required for the welfare of the
people of the state.
An inheritance tax is levied in near
~ every state of the union. No argu-
ment can be made against it success
fully. 1t would bring considerable
sum into the state treasury annually
But. first of all, collection of de-
linquent taxes is essential. Unless
provision is made for penalizing the
Officially responsible when they fail in
the discharge of that duty this leg
islaturc will merit the severest con-
demnation by the voters of New Mex
leo.

THE point | wish to make is this:
If that poor lonely rich man YOU spoke
of would call on my friend once a
week, read to him and perhaps helu
him in his studies. or tlka him out
for walk, he will finl no. only an
evenings enjoyment, but Il big brother
act as WE'LL
All, surely there IS fine field for
friendship. 1t is the very moor the
struggling, that appreciate a com
radeship the most
! wonder how many people realize
this great need of friendship since
the war. The lonely people are legion
Hundreds of soldiers are convalescing,
blind or otherwise unfit to enjoy the
opportunities of the hale and hearty
How many of them long for some
body TO read to them for an hour: or
to tell them about things they have
seen In a word what greater bit of
work is there, what finer opportunity
than to convey to a new friend the
belief that the milk Of human kind
ness still flows and that the world is
fun of friends.
The woman | speak about has GER
talnly found the surest and biggest
means of creating a friendly spirit.
I ON the other hand. many letters
have come to me from strong, heal

overcome it,

Perhaps the GREATEST friendship in

VIENNA PINS ITS
HOPES To POLICY
OF UNITED STATES
BY Beatrice Baskerville.

querque Journal and New
York World.

Especial Gable Dispatch

Especial Gable Dispatch.)
Vienna, Jan. 31.--The Viennest
press and public express deepest satis-
faction at the news that the peace
conference has sent warning against
the forcible occupation of those ter
ritories formerly under the rule OF
Austria hungary and Germany, which
are inhabited by various proportions
of non-German nationalities. The
World correspondent hears today that
this satisfa ctions is shared by the
Hungarians, who had begun to fear the
allies would permit their country to
be dismembeed as punishment for
having remained in the war.
1t is the best news we have heard
for long time, only it might have
come h little sooner sums up the
general verdict of press and public
here, which all agree in lauding Pres
ident Wilson for the note which they
believe. is entirely due to his influence.
The Neue Freie Presse says:
THE influence of President Wilson
is increasing. His declaration regard
ing the allies Russian policy was a
clear counter stroke to French vehe-
mence. Now comes this protest, which
will have hampering effect on those
who are attempting, by brutal force,
to gain premature favorable influ-
ence over the decisions of the peace
conference
The Neues Wiener Journal re-
marks:
ut can be absolutely asserted that
the voice of President Wilson speaks
and lays down principles which some
members of the entente will be forced
to accept. Through the authority of
the president of the United States, Mr..
Wilson directs this solemn warning
against those annexationist robbers
and makes it clear that every pos
session gained by force will only pre-
judice the the cause of those who have
resorted to such measures. so belief in
the justice of Wilson will be in
creased and strengthened by this dec
laration.
The Neues Wiener Tagehlatt also
says that the newest proclamation
from the Paris conference was un-
dcubtedly inspired by President Will
son and that it comes like cold
water douche upon the heated aspira
tions of petty imperialists.''

Coblenz. Dec. 20 (by MaiD. -
Shortly after an American military
prestige parade" had passed with
band playing, Teuton street urchins
this morning pulled off Counter
demonstration" in the form of a
parody parade of the Prussan guard,
TO the amusement of some hundreds
of doughboys and American officers.
The kids of Coblenz, half q hundred
strong, assembled spontaneously on
the street in front of the Giant
Fuerstenhof" hotel--the headquarters
of the American armistice correspond
ents-and obviously encouraged to
show OFF, by the onlookers, lined up
in column of fours formation, the
high command being exercised by a
budding future Mackensen. aged about
6, wearing deaths head hussar
shake, or cap, and a silver-tin breast
plate and Furnishing tin toy sword
with typical crack guard cavalry
swank. This youngster generalissimo's
orders were implicitly obeyed by his
followers, who ranged from S to Ii
years in appearance.
Following the leader, an older, rag
ged urchin blowing a badly battered
trumpet headed the procession, flank
ed by two sturdy kids beating toy
drums, and behind them marched the
rank and file. most of them wearing
the orthodox field gray fatigue cap of
the German soldier. Crushing defeat
of their papes and kaiser had not
taken the spirit of militarism out of
these Coblenz kiddes, and some of the
American eyeWitnesses, inclning to
see deeper significance in even li,.le
things, were moved to the following
reflections
"Germany-this part of Germany at
least-is overrun with kids. You see
twenty times as many kids here as in
France was the way a doughboy,
with some tXaggeration. summed up
his impression. Many more Kids here
in Germany than in France; there
don't seem to be much to this bunk
about infant mortality in Germany.
Another thing. these German kids are
a sturdy looking bunch; at least, hero
on the Rhine. you don't see any
pinched and pale cheeks. The kids
here look rosy checked well fed and
healthy. And there are lots of them
the material for Germany's future
armies.
That cocky youngster with his
hussar cap and brandshed tin toy
sword may be leading charge
against the enemy some day; those
ragged urchins behind him wearing
military caps are Germanys future
machine gunners and bomb throwers"
Is Germany's bumper crop of
healthy war kids potential menace
to the future peace of the world?
