World Peril
In Disorders
Profound Lack of Faith in

Abroad in Europe.
BY WILLIAM ALLEN wHITE.l

Paris. Feb. a6-A week has seen the
assassination of Kurt Eisner and the
attempt on Clemenceau's life. one the
most radical ruler in organized E,u-

These manifestations seem to be the
elimination, but may be only the be-
ginning. of growing wave OF social
and Industrial unrest Profound lack

ments and institutions is abroad in
Europe. knowing no border or
breed or BIRTH
It is the reaction OF war and is
rising in every country. Twice in 4
week LLOYD George has had to break
engagements at the Peace Confer
ence to attend to grave labor troubles
in Great Britain-troubIes that are
growing with mad fatality. indicating
that Labor will not obey its own lead
ers. resisting even the restraints OF its
own organization.
Shipping and internal commerce in
England are tangled by strikes in
vOlvinG no principle. and the sudden
increase Of enlistments in the army
in response to bonuses for enlist
ments reveals a curious lack OF
social responsibility. and a desire to
live the easy life
In Germany, soldiers out OF employ
ment receive bonuses for unemploy-
ment, together with per capita al
lowances so large that heads of famI-
lies can make more in idleness than
at work. So work is neglected. coal
is not mined. and Germany is shiver-
ing.
In France soldiers who were COM

war came have now seen seven years

Faith in institutions is waverinC and
there is grave danger that the times
may see this lack of faith manifest
In violence, for added to the insta bill
ity of the times is a genuine food
shortage which amounts to famine In
Russia and parts OF Germany and the
southeast of Europe.
Now famine breds disorder even in
an era of order and the five months
which stretch out ahead before food
may come from the earth are full OF
danger for Europe. These two muir
derous attacks, coming from men at
opposite poles OF society, and the un-
certainty with which government ma
jorities are holding their seats in
England and France and GERMANY. to-
Eether with the dreaded conditions
behind the iron veil in Russia, make
the week ending seem to presage
disQuieting things.
Europe is upon the edge either OF a
new order in which a nearer approx
mate OF Justice among men is about
to emerge, or else upon the brink OF
social catastrophe.

EXTENDS TAX
RETURN DATE
Revenue Collector Roper
Grants 45 DAYS Grace.

Internal Revenue Collector Roper
last night announced an extension of
forty-tive days from March Is in the
time in which completed tax returns
for 1918 may be filed, provided the tax
payer pays on or before March Is at
least twenty-five per cent of the es-
timated amount of tax due.
The extension relates to both corpor-
alton and individual income tax re-
turns. 1t is allowed because of the
short time which taxpayers have
to make out their returns, due to the
delay of Congress in passing the reve~
nue. bill.

WILSON TO SEEK
PUBLIC "0KEH''
VIII Not Ask League In
dorsement of Present
Congress.

President Wilson will not seek
endorsement from Congress of the
league of nations constitution be-
fore he returnss to Europe. He
will not even address Congress on
the subject. but plans to make ono
public address before sailing on
March ;, 1t was learned yesterday.
Administration officials allowed it
to become known that the Presi-
dent does not feel this is an Op-
perfume time for Endorsement of
the league of nations plan, for
two reasons: First, because he
feels the plan should be considered
as a part of the general peace pact
yet to be drafted, and second, that,
as the life of the present Congress
expires Tuesday, it will be the next
Congress that will have to ratify
the peace treaty, and endorsement
by the present Congress would only
have moral value and could be
obtained only after n hard fight.
The Presidents only discussion
with members of Congress, except
such individuals as he may see dur
ing his short stay at home, is to be
with members of the Senate For
eign Relations and the House For
eign Affairs committees at the
White House dinner. Whatever
Administration members of those
committees shall have to say in the
debate on the League of Nations
during the remaining days of the
session may be regarded as re-
fiecting the Presidents views and
wishes.
President Has Busy Day.
The second day of the Presidents
home stay was as filled with work
as was the first. He was at his
desk at nine o'clock in the morn
ing, and remained either there or
in conferences until after five
O'Clock in the afternoon, when he
went for a short drive.
