ALL LUXURY TAXES
MAY YET Be STRICKEN
SENATE AND HOUSE CONFEREES
AGREE TO MEASURE TO RE-
PEAL THEM. OTHER CUTS

WASHINGTON-House and Sem
ate conferees on the revenue bill have
reached an agreement to recommend
no change in the so-called luxury taxes
IN the bill, but to pass it as it stands in
TINS respect, with the provision that
later a joint resolution repeating this
section Of the bill will be introduced
and passed in both houses.
A nationwide campaign against the
luxury taxes, aimed at certain grades
Of clothing, etc, costing above a
stated amount, has been in progress
for some time, with department stores.
wholesale houses and even manufac-
turers protesting against the levies as
an unWarranted and unnecessary in
reference with their business.
The conference committee has also
agreed to make provision for depreca-
ton IN stocks in computing the profits
OF corporations and partnerships.
The elimination of all the items
that have been agreed on will leave
the bill one that will yield less than
S5,500,O 100000, whereas it originally
was intended to raise $8,000,000,0
this amount having been cut to S.
OOO,O00,000 with the end of the war.
Tobacco users will be among those
hardest hit by the new rates. The to-
bacco tax, along with many others.
becomes operative Immediately the bill
becomes a law. and manufacturers and
retailers are prepared to give their
products a considerable boost in price
This will mean an increased tax ON to-
bacco from thirteen cents to eighteen
cents a pound. It will mean that the
tax on cigarettes will be increased
from $205 to So per 1000.

N the manufacture of Flour, as
IN all other manufacturing in
dustries, the profit depends in a
very large degree upon the volume
OF the output. The tendency in
all lines therefore is to cheaper
the cost of products by increasing
the volume.
The commercial mills in this
way have forced out nearly all the
small country mills which produce
flour from wheat grown in the vi
cinity, which had not been bulked
IN cars to and from the elevators,
causing fermentation from heat.
especially during time remaining
in larger bulk in the elevators.
The commercial mills necessar-
lily have to kiln dry and deheart
the wheat and bleach the flour
first to make it white, and second
to preserve it from deterioration
in store and in transit.
In other words they take the
life of the wheat, producing
snoW-White dust called flour, more
or less indigestible, robbing it of
most of its Mineral Salts and Glu-
ten, leaving it with an unwhole-
some preponderance of Starch,
compared to the natural nutritive
value which it should contain.
Our capacity being small neces-
Sarily increases the cost of output,
though we are selling cheaper
than you can buy flour elsewhere
containing a relative per cent Of
Gluten.
Our price is 90c for II pounds,
$l.75 for "a pounds, $3.50 for As
pound sacks or S4.25 in sealed
cans.
For immediate use order in

future use or years supply or

As much as they did during the war.
But alas!

Nothing was said about what would
be done when the war ended. No one
thought to get a scrap Of paper signed
by our dear Allies, taking their pledge
to help US eat up our surplus after the
war. Mr.. Hoover was our agent abroad
and we supposed by what he was say
ing that it would take several years
for the world to catch up with its ap.

the highest meat prices on record. And
the price must stay up because the
food administration says so.
1t would be nice if England and
France would lend US their ships to
bring our soldiers home, as they loan
ed them to US to carry the boys over
in doublequick time, and then it would
be nice if the ships would load up with
our high priced meat and high priced
wheat for the return trip But those
ships are busy carrying British and
French merchandise to their colonies
and other neutral countries and they
load up for the return trip with cheap
meat and cheap wheat.
We are left to eat our own stuff at
the prices We fixed high in order to
encourage increased production to help
win the war Mr. Hoover confesses
that it all has him guessing and grow
ing gray.
We have this hope held out to us.
Some time the coming summer
peace terms will be signed. Then the
enemy countries will be permitted to
eat our meat and flour that was pro-
duced for our Allies-provided they
have the money to- buy. They will be
good and hungry by that time, and if
we lend them the money with which to
buy they will take quite a bit of our
surplus, unless they, too, find a cheap
er place to buy.
In the meantime the American gov

And so it is with meat. We have

orders, but our customers have found
another place to buy meat. The price
is lower there They urged US to grow
hogs to supply their needs. and then
they begin trading with other cOun-

take there, but did not realize it until
it was too late. 1t seems that the
Yankees whose ruler was one Wood
row., assisted by powerful figure
called 'Crowder,' set the Americans to
raising a great draft which eventually
blew the War Lord off the map.
He then became wanderer on the
face of the globe with nowhere to rest

caused a little disturbance for some
time, but nothing Of any consequence
resulted from their behavior.
After the war a peace conference
was held in Europe to establish
league of nations, but the work must
have been of such complexity that the
primitive minds Of the Yankee Sena-
tors could not grasp it, and in spite of
the strenuous efforts of Woodrow to
impress the Importance of the project
upon them they caused so much
trouble by filibustering that they
almost succeeded in busting the repu-
tatlon that the great ruler had estab-
hshed. 1t also is thought that a COM
ing election in Yankeeland' had a
great deal to do with the opposition to
'Woodrow's' plan because he was of
party opposed to the majority of the
Senators, and it was their desire that
Woodrow should not make the nation
safe for the Democratic party and
leave their Elephantine party out of
the Graft. Graft is referred to quite
often in the records discovered, and it
is supposed that it was a position of
great honor, higher than the Senate.
and one to which all politicians of that
time aspired.

pected from the profeapr's research
