would concedc AT any time prior TO the

The senate restored the taxing ma
chipery, the shipbuiIding and water
power company exemptions and upheld
the governor in his demand that the
states revenues be increased by 70 per
cent a year over what they have been
during the last year or two.
The odious and unjust income and
houses by the administration, were
fought with vigor and skill by those
who believe that the burden of taxation
should be equitabfy distributed but
the power of the chief executive,
backed up by the hundreds of school
teachers and doctors and other favor
seeking persons throughout the state
was too great to overcome. The ma

the legislature reconvened, has worked
smoothly and effectively. There have
been times when it ratified a little and
indications were not wanting that 1t
might get stuck somewhere on the
road, but quick repairs were made and
it rolled on to the end of the route,
moving down all opposition.
Evidences of an intention to rail-
road the revenue bill through the sem
ate cropped out several times during
the last day or two. but it was re-
strained and the opposition was given
all the time it wanted to discuss the
bill and it's various features

COMMITTEE
TO BEGIN WORK. ON
PROPOSED TREATY
AMENDMENTS TODAY
BY Associated prs.s

w dSnlngCOn, August Il.
In a determined effort to report
the peace treaty before the
end of next week the Senate
foreign relations committee
suddenly interrupted it's pub
lie hearings today and ar
ranged to go to work tomorrow
on proposed amendments and
reservations.
Although one witness will be heard
Monday most of the members thought it
might be the last hearing before the
treaty was reported. 1t was indicated
that the waiting list of others who are
to appear later would not be permitted
to stand in the way of an early re-
port.
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, the
democratic leader, declared his belief
that the report would be laid before the
Senate during the coming week and as
serted that he had been assured the re-
publicans would cooperate to that end.
Some republican members agreed with
his prediction, but Chairman Lodge de-
clined to say when he thought the COM
mittee would act.

Red WHITE-bLUE
CoIors That Preponderate
in Flags of Nations of
>,.i, the World.
.HE principal colors in the flags
that fly throughout the world
this year of our Lord, 1919,

that fly throughout the world
this year of our Lord, 1919,
today are red, white and
blue in diverse combinations. Here
and there green is shown, but red,
white and blue are the colors of nine
teen out of twenty-five national flags
and are the colors of practically all
the flags of the nations of Europe.
The significance of national colors
goes back to the days of heraldry and
many of the devices displayed on flags
are either heraldic designs or have
been derived from such designs. Red
stands for courage and military forti-
tude, blue symbolizes loyalty and truth
and white stands for peace and SINGER
fly. In the Italian, Irish, Brazilian
and Mexican flags green is one of the
colors, and in heraldry this color Sig
nified hope and joy. Black, which ap-
pears in the German flag in combina-
tion with red and white, stands for
constancy.
A historian has written that the
farmers in the battle of Lexington car
ried the "cornet" or standard of the
Three County Troop. That banner
was devised for a troop of cavalry
raised in the counties of Essex, Suf-
folk and Middlesex, Massachusetts, in
1859. The office of color bearer of
this troop became an inheritance in
the Page family of the Bay colony.
The flag was carried in King Philips
war in 1876. When the minute men
were organized, Nathaniel Page, Sd, of
Bedford, Mass, took the old flag out

and sword are worked in silver. On the
flag are three circular figures, which
it is thought were put there to repre-
sent cannon balls. The words "Vince
ct Moriture" Conquer or Die) are on
a gold scroll. The flag is two feet long
and foot and half wide.
The design of the American flag may
be said to be an evolution and COM
bination of colors and designs long
antedating the American revolution.
The flags that were carried by mill
The Colorado statesman., 1919-06-07

tary organizations in the colonies be-
fore the outbreak of the revolution
were not British flags, but organiza-
ors and designs.
The British ensign or Union Jack is
said by some to have been the inspira-
ton of the American flags. The Union
Jack is combination of the English
red cross of st. George on a white
field, the Scotch white cross of St.
Andrew on a blue field and the Irish
red cross of st. Patrick. The combina-
ton of the English and Scotch flags
was agreed on in 1906, soon after the
union of England and Scotland under
James /.
Explaining the "Jack."
The word "Jack" as applied to the
British flag is supposed to be a cor
ruption of Jack" which was the COM
mon abbreviation of "Jacob1s," the
Latin for James. The introduction on
to the flag of the cross of st. Patrick
came later. England's Union Jack
traces it's origin to those remote times
when knights rode in the lists and the
red cross of st. George on its white
field goes back to the Crusades and
the hundred years war with France
war that calls to mind such stirring
names as Crecy, Agincourt and Poi
tiers.
The American flag carried in the bat
tie of Bunker Hill had on it the cross
of st. George and pine tree, the SYM
Dol of Massachusetts. 1t is written by
historians of the American flag that
when the first flag to represent the
united colonies was devised, as many
horizontal stripes of red and white
were introduced as there were colo
nies, and as at that date the colonies
were not Independent, but merely in
revolt because of the denial by the
English government of their rigl'-s as
Englishmen," the ensign of England,
the superimposed crosses of st. George,
ST. Andrew and st. Patrick, was re-
tained by the Americans in IT,, upper
staff corner of the flag.
