cure Passports and Expect Soon

Three we'll known Americans will
try 10 obtain hearing for ireland

leans of Irish birth or descent are
former Gov. Dunno of Illinois,
Frank p. Walsh, who served rs joint
chairman of the National War Labor
Board, and Michael X. Ryan, one time
pubic service commissioner of Penn
sylvania.
The three delegates were selected
for their mission by the Irish race
conference at Philadelphia about d
month ago. The granting of pass
ports TO men bound on such mission
is regarded in some circles as some
what unusual, but the State Depart
ment had nothing to say about the
matter.
Mr.. Walsh said the committee is go
ing to France as American citizens
holding no allegiance actual or
spiritual to any other nation on
earth" Mr.. Walsh said the commit

Up to the present some of the news

that crowds invariably have gathered

Wilson and his conferees.
The time of the meeting today at

seemingly in a casual manner.
There has been no special incident
to bring about this extraordinary
care, but it is obvious that the people
of Paris are becoming too well ac-
ouainted with the time and place of
the meetings and that this fact
caused a determination to adopt a
course that would reduce to a mini

might be. President Wilson himself
appears to be entirely unworried

Alleged Reason for Delay.

1t appears that the special grievance
of the men is that their discharge is
delayed in order to permit cadet Of
ficerS seeking reserve commissions to
complete their course Of instruction.
The position of the men is that they
enlisted for the duration Of the war
and that as there is no real military
work for them to do or in prospect
they want 10 return to their families
and civil employment. Complaint is
made that their applications for dis
charge usually are disaDproved on tn"
ground that their serv ces cannot DC
spared. In a recent petition for re-
lief ii was asserted that more than
half the men at the field have Moth
ing to do beyond assisting in train
ing of reserve cadets.

DRUGGISTS MUST COLLECT
TAX ON MANY ARTICLES

The commissioner of internal reve-
nue. has made the following rulings
regarding the tax on proprietary and
toilet articles, which became effect
i've May 1:
The tax is one cent for each 20
cents or fraction thereof of what
the consumer pays. The retailer
must collect that tax at the time of
sale.
No tax upon sales by a manufac-'
turer as such on and after May l,
1919. The tax imposed on manu-
facturers by the revenue act of 1917
expires April 80, 1919.
No refund of taxes on articles sold
by manufacturer prior to May /.
1919, on which a manufacturers tax
has been paid.
Tax payable by means of adhesive
proprietary stamps of the denomina-
ton of one, two, three, four. five,
eight, 10, 20, ard 40 cents, ready
for distribution and sale prior to May
! l, 1919.
No discount on sale of stamps.
The law requires the vendor TO af-
fix the stamp, but a manufacturer OF
importer mGy do so as the agent OF
the retailer where practicable. Goods
properly stamped are not again sub

or at a lesser price.

THE HIGHER PATRIOTISM
VIM. GOODYEAR.

None of us will ever forget those
stirring days when patriotism was
running rampant through the land,
When the boys were leaving daily for
the training camps, every detach-
ment escorted by a guard of weeping
mothers and sweethearts. When the
first transports began stealing out
from the Atlantic harbors under
cover of the night and racing for
France. When the ,;Q-boat menace
was at its height and every day we
expected report of another disaster
10 our boys in transit. When the
guns were booming increasingly along
the French front and the Hun was
creeping nearer to Paris day by day.
When finally our boys took their
first positions in the line and we be-
gan watching for the story of their
baptism by fire. And finally those
days when there began to trickle
through the first casualty lists from
Verdun, St Mihiel and Chateau
Thierry.
Putting Liberty Loen over the
top then was no great job, ever
though it ran into billions. Billions
frightened US no less than did tn,
Boche. Everyone was doing some
thing for the boys at the front. Buy
ing Liberty Bonds, War Saving
Stamps, contributing to the Rec
Cross or some other war aid. Try
ing his level best to do his bit. Pa
triotism YVES on its toes. Loyalt,
vas working overtime. Love Of lii
erty. pride in freedom, the urge @
democracy, all were working han,
in hand. All America was emptyin
its pockets into the national wa
chest.
But it is different now. Tn
booming guns are stilled. Airplane
no longer dot the shell puncture
heavens. Charge and skirmish. mas
attack and disordered retreat are n
more. Machine gun clatter and hig
explosive shells no longer harr,

A CONTINUOUS CHAUTAUQUA

The Chautauqua has been and is u
very valuable and useful institution
for communities which do not enjoy
the privilege of frequent high class
lectures, entertainments and mu-
varied and wholesome programs pre-
sssented by the Chautauquas stimu-
lates the mental as we'll as the social
life of the people and fills d very
real want in the smaller towns and
rural districts of the country.
Pullman is fortunate in not need
ing this stimulus because the State
College brings to the community
better lectures, entertainments, and
musical attractions than the average
Chautauqua can offer, and distrib-
ntes them throughout the year. in
stead of crowding them into a single
week. Many of these attractions are
offered free of charge, There are
several men CO0ueGtGu Win the WI
1ege who can deliver far more worth
while lectures than the average
Ehautauqua star and eminent visit
0rs, capable of discussing with au-
thority the educational, social and
political problems of the day, can be
heard nearly every week in the col
lege auditorium. There are members
of the faculty of the department of
music who can and do give frequent
vocal and instrumental programs far
superior in quality and artistic rem
dition to those offered by the Chau-
tauqua.
This opportunity to enjoy con-
einuous Chautauqua the year round
is a very great privilege and one
which the people of this community
should deeply appreciate and stress
in presenting the advantages of Pull |
man as a good place in which to
reside.

HUMAN PESTS

There are human as well as insect
pests. AS the insect pests attack
the fruits of the orchards, so the
human pests impair 7contentment
and happiness of communities. Pull
man is infested with few varieties
of these human pests.
One variety specializes>in stealing
flowers from private gardens and
tramp down and destroy as many
flowers as they steal.
Another variety confines. it's ac-
tivities to rcbbing hen coops and pill
fering eatables whenever the oppor-
tunity offers. They consider their
depredations as jokes, but the right
name for them is petit larceny
Another variety, and the worst of
all, puts out poison where it can be
reached by pet cats and dogs. A
person who does not hesitate to poi
son cat or dog which has never
done any harm, and is highly priced
and loved by its owners, is sadly
lacking in the milk of human kind
ness and proper respect for the
rights of others.
vigorous measures are taken to
rid an orchard of insect pests and
equally vigorous measures should be
taken to rid a community of human
pests.
