City Taxes

The Tax Department has not carried
out it's reported determination to punish
rent raisers by assessing their proper
ties at much higher values for purposes
Of taxation. The increase of assess
ments in residential neighborhoods is so
slight as to be almost negligible. Indeed
in the increased value Of $210,000,00
found in all the city's real estate by the
tax assessors the rental situation seems
to have received little consideration
The increase is spread lightly through
out the five boroughs and may, in the alb
sence of new buildings, be ascribed to
what the department terms "equaliza-
tion." One reason for this is that the
new schedules Of rents did not 20 into
effect as a rule until October 1, while the
assessors were in the field for several
months with only the old schedules on
which to base their calculations of value
Another interesting story the assess
ment rolls tell. Owners of New York
City real estate may prepare for large
increase in the tax rate Based on the
tentative real estate assessment, the total
increase in the value of property, real
and personal, on which taxes can be COL
lected probably will not exceed $175,OO0.-
900, from which an additional $4,O0O,0OO
will be realized, an amount which will
pay only small part of the increases
which are asked for the next year by the
principal departments of the city govern
ment.

Synthetic Sugar and Protein

If Hamlet had lived in our dav he
might have been better satisfied to feed
on the air. An eminent scientist, Dr.
Osterhout, of Harvard, informs us that
nutritious foods may be made from air.
sunlight and water. He admits that
there are difficulties in the way-syn-
thetc sugar, for example, costs more
than real sugar. You can get it fsom
formaldehyde, made out of iron rust ex-
posed to the prismatic rays of the sun
through water, or by ultraviolet rays,
radium and electricity. But the trouble
is that Nature herself remains a dan
gerous competitor. The plant itself
"undersells the synthetic method" Many
a great scientific discovery has been
nullifed-at least in the beginning-bv
financial considerations
Or take protein, an important element
in food. A simple kind can be made of
"the carbon dioxide of the air, water
and ammonia" Combine this with sugar
and the necessary fat is obtained. 1t
is all very simple. If the problem of
laboratory cost can be solved every one
can live in luxury without recourse to
the grocer or the butcher. But some
things are too simple. There is nothing
novel in the idea of artificial food. 1t
has often been predicted that the time
would come when man could dine by
taking pill. We have it on good au-
thority, however, that the life is more
than food. Civilized man does not feed:
ne eats. And so he demands more than
mere nourishment He has palate to
be gratified. 1t is on this rock that
most scientific schemes of diet have
been wrecked-they ignore the craving
for variety, they make no appeal to
taste.
The air may be nipping and eager
enough to provoke appetite, but even
under scientific manipulation it could
hardly satisfy appetite. If we could
maintain life by shifting in the air,
bottling the sunlight and drinking a
little water, would state of mundane
bliss result?

An Ersatz Army

Article 1T Of Part V of the peace
treaty, dealing with the reduction of
Germany's military establishment to a
professional army Of 100000 long-term
men, reads;
Educational establishments, the uni
versities, societies Of discharged soldiers.
shooting and touring clubs and, gener-
ally speaking, associations of every de-
scription, whatever be the age OF their
members, must not occupy themselves
with any military matters. In particular
they will be forbidden to instruct and ex-
ercise their members, or allow them to
be instructed or exercised, in the profess
sion or use Of arms
This clause was inserted lest Ger
many should attempt to circumvent the
prohibition as to the maintenance Of
"cadres" by camoufaging military units
as peaceful educational or athletic or
carnations, just as the clause Of the
Peace Of Tilsit reducing the Prussian
army to $4,000 men was nullifed by the
introduction Of universal military train
ing.
1t was safe to assume that the we'll
known German genius for "ersatz" and
the still better known German passion
for breaking the spirit of agreements
even when their letter is preserved,
would survive. And they have The

even though the present annual output of
sO,0O0000 tons falls short of the country's
needs They will increase the cost of soft
coal $3.50 ton and add $3.50 900, 900 to the
annual railway deficit-not to mention the
added burden upon every public utility and
the increased cost of every manufactured
article, from pins to automobiles, all Of which
the public must pay. And the miner will be

capital 1t is a blow at every citizen of
the country.
1t IS fortunate that radicals like Fitz-
patrick, Foster and Glenn Plumb have at
last brought the issue into broad daylight.
1t is we'll that we can approach Black Novem-
ber 1919, with the full knowledge of what
the American Federation of Labor has in
store for the United States
The one definite, rcassuring statement
made by President Wilson on his stumping
tour was to the effect that mo minority shall
exercise its will upon the American people"
If he meant it, all will be well. The forces
of democracy by no means exhausted
by the recent war. They are ready to fight
for their country againif the issue and the
cause are but made clear
To this effect would it not be opportune
for the Frelnghuysen Senate committee now
investigating the coal industry to call before
it Immediately the labor leaders who have
framed these demands and the coal operators
who are considering them? Much helpful
information was CLEANED for the public by
the examination Of Fitzpatrick and Gompers
before the Senate steel committee

orators on record in the same fashion, but
before the strike begins, and national

New-York tribune., 1919-10-03
The Fall Amendments

The Fall amendments to the treaty
were Objectionable not so much because
Of their purpose as because of their form.
It was Mr.. Falls idea to limit the activi-
ties of the United States on the various
minor commissions created by the peace
treaty with Germany.
1t is not desirable that the United
States should have principal part in
the submission of referendums and the
other minute details Of the partition of
the territory in Europe ceded by Ger
many. Such participation can only
bring us unnecessary enmities, as has
been proved already at Paris. The bur-
den should not be put on the United
States Of acting as umpire in petty local
squabbles growing out Of racial and ma
tionahstlc controversies. Europe can
unravel those loose ends better than we
can.
Yet Mr.. Falls programme of renun-
cation was too sweeping. There may be
cases coming before some of the commits
sons provided for in the treaty which
will involve American interests Ameri-
can representation may be advantageous
In such instances, just as Mr. Fall admits
American representation to be on the
major reparations commission. There is
no need of laying down hard and fast
rule. Participation by the United States
can be more wisely limited in the light
of experience
What the New Mexico Senator sought
to accomplish can be better ACCOMPLISHED
through reservation insuring the right
of the United States to withdraw with
out prejudice from the work of anv Of
the commissions. A reservation of this
sort would cause no great inconvenience
in the way of obtaining the assent of
other slgnatories. Few signatories are
represented on these bodies. They cou]d
either formally or informally, promise to
make no objection if American particina-
ton in the work Of any Of these minor
boards should lapse. Generally speak
ing, the United States enters these COM
missions as a benevolent outsider. All
that is necessary is to preserve for this
country certain liberty of action-an
option of resignation at the point at
which 1t may seem that undesirable COM
mltments are being thrust upon our rem.
resentatives.
