SACRIFICE" TAXES IN GERMANY

In order to raise the annual budget of nearly &c.
0000O00OO which will be necessary if Germany is to
meet her obligations, Matthias Erzberger, the minister
Of finance has devised three types of taxes, known
as Sacrifice taxes, which will be put into operation
April l. 1920 The first of these will be heavy tax
business turnover The second is called the Imperial
sacrifice to needs" The third will be the necessaes
of life.
The second of these taxes will be an income tax
which will involve profits from invested capital These
capital profits will be taxed from 25 80 per cent The
finance minister admits that these taxes brutal" but
there is other way to bring the hidden gold
reserves stored away in Germany
The report does not explain the curious use of the
word Imperial" in relations to these taxes We had
thought the empire had disappeared Why not these
taxes called Republican,"

ADVICE EXPLAINED
New York Weekly Review Of
Situation Urges StimuIa-
ton of Production.
SHORTAGE IS IMMINENT

In it's weekly review of the coal
situation the latest issue of Coal Age.
New York, says:
To the public in general coal is
coal. Therefore, the advertisement OF
the National Coal Association, warn
ing of a coal shortage this winter dn-
less consumers order their coal now,
is confusing. The user Of anthracite,
particularly the domestic sizes Of an
thracite, wonders what all the ado Is
about He has ordered his coal, put
in his request weeks ago. in fact, and
has not as yet received delivery.
why" he questions. "all this insist
ence on buying coal now when the
dealer tells me he cannot deliver for
month to Gomez"
And his plant is one worthy of no
tice. The National Coal Association
numbers in it's membership 80 per cent
of the bituminous operators of the
country Its interest lies solely with
the producing and marketing of soft
coal. All it's advertisements and pub
licity work refer to this kind of coal.
1t has absolutely nothing whatever
to do with anthracite, and it has fall
ed to make this fact clear to the pub
lic The result is that coal consumers
are completely mystified and do not
know what to believe.

Anthracite Outlook Not Bad.

Let us now turn to the anthracite
situation: Contrary to the general
impression, the anthracite outlook is
not so gloomy as it has been pictured.
The estimated demands for the pres
emit coal year call for the production
Of 100000 net tons Of hard coal. OF
this 57.500,000 net tons go for house,
hold use, the remainder for steam
making or Industrial purposes. Dur
ing the first quarter of the present
coal year the actual output of hard
coal amounted to 21.261,0 900 net tons.
Production has been stimulated about
10 per cent since the early spring, and
the estimated output Of anthracite for
the rest of the coal year can there
fore conservatively be placed at TO-
161. 900 net tons. or total production
for the year of 91,422,000 net tons.
Based on the present rate of output,
there will therefore be shortage of
3,57S,000 net tons Of anthracite by the
end of the coal year. Whether this
shortage will materialize depends
much on labor and transportation
conditions in the future and the kind
of weather we will experience this
winter. The fact remains, however,
that distribution of hard coal SO far
this season was never so great before,
with the exception of 1917 and 1918.

BERLIN. July 30.-The Tageblatt's
Budapest correspondent has been able
to smuggle through the censorship Of
Bella Kun what he says are the de-
tails of the defeat and ignominious
flight of the Hungarian red army-a
defeat which he asserts led Bella Kun
to hasten to Vienna to treat with the
entente regarding a retirement.
The red offensive against Rumania,
the correspondent declares, was in
spired by Bella Kun. He hoped to
turn the attention Of the troops from
the miserable food conditions in Buda-
pest and Its vicinity by sending them
against Rumania in a vague hope that
they would succeed and. by victory,
find themselves in a more prosperous
country.
Countless Desertions.
There had been countless deser-
lions. however. the correspondent
continued. The commander of the
army had gone over to the Karolyi
forces and command was placed in
the hands Of the general staff colonel,
Juliec, who declared that he was no
bolshevist. but was taking command
because ne was forced to do SO. The,
situation, therefore, was unfavorable.
At the start the Rumanians were
caught by surprise and forced back

Situation Summed Up.

Boiled down, the situation is this:
In order to meet the estimated de-
mand for bituminous coal the mines
must produce 537,500,oO0 net tons Of
year, which began April l. 1919. and
runs to March 81, 1920. 1t is always
assumed that all of the coal produced
prior to April l of any year-except
in case of stocking for emergency
ton. The actual production of soft
coal during the first three months of
the coal year-April. May and June
totaled only 99,367,oo0 net tons. At
this rate of production the indicated
the coal year would total 2sS, 1o1, 900
net tons, or 397,46s,000 net tons for
the year. This means a shortage OF
14O, 0S2, 900 net tons by March 81 1920.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1919-07-31
Mines Must Be Kept Busy.

If the soft coal mines of the coun-
try could be stimulated to produce to
their full potential capacity, they
could readily mine more than $780,
O00,0 net tons of coal a year. The
actual output in 1918 amounted to
SIS, $3.50, 900 net tons. Favorable min
ing and transportation conditions no
longer exist, however. and the only
way in which a radical shortage can
be averted this fall and winter Is for
consumers of soft coal to put in their
orders and keep the mines busy at
work filing them.
Much of the shortage in soft coak
will have to be met by the product
of the middle west mines. which at
the present time are working at about
so per cent of capacity. The low vol
atile Goals produced in the eastern
section of the country are scarce al
ready. Every ton Of high-grade coal
that will be mined during the coming
year has been contracted for. It will
be foolish for consumers who are not
covered by contracts to persist in
their attitude Of discrimination. True.
at this moment soft coal may be
picked up at low prices, but this con-
dition will not continue for long. The
market is Tightening from day to day.
It can readily be seen. therefore,
that the warnings of shortage in
soft coal are well founded. Buyers
would do well to heed them.

SAYS HOT WATER WASHES P0IS0NS
 FROM THE LIVER
Everyone should drink hot water with phosphate In 1t,
 before breakfast.

To feel as fine as the proverbial fiddle, we must keep the liver washed clean, almost every morning. to pre- vent its sponge-like pores from clog ging with indigestible material sour bile and poisonous toxins, says noted physician.
 If you get headaches, it's your liver. If you catch cold easily, it's your liver. If you wake up with bad taste, furred tongue, nasty breath or stomach be- comes rancid, it's your liver. Sallow skin, muddy complexion, watery eyes all denote liver uncleanliness. Your liver is the most important, also the most abused and neglected organ of the body. Few know its function or how to release the dammed-up body waste, bile and toxins
 Every man and woman, sick or well, should drink each morning be- fore breakfast. a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phos- phate in it, to wash from the liver and bowels the previous days indigestible material, the poisons, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach.
 Limestone phosphate is inexpensive; any pharmacist will sell you a quarter pound, which is sufficient for a dem onstration of how hot water and lime stone phosphate cleans, stimulates and freshens the liver, keeping you feeling fit day in and day out.-Adv.

 Mrs Mamie Melvin, one of the best war workers connected with the war department, has been appointed organi- ger of the war department division Of social hygene and section on women's work, and has started on her task of perfecting a thorough organization of Alabama. Mrs. Melvin found her task of organizing Calhoun county an easy one, for during her stay in Anniston as fixed post worker for law enforcei-ent division Mrs. Melvin proved to this community the vast importance of this phase of the war departments work. Through her efforts the Lodge, home for wayward girls, was blished Here girls are given the privilege of cheerful home life, the sympathy and understanding, of course, created workers who have already been instru- mental in effecting many reforms among the inmates of the home. The women of the various churches fur nished the Lodge and often visit the home. A protective association, of which Mrs. Stephen R. Thompson, one of Annistons splendid public-spirited women, is chairman, minister constant ly to the spiritual and physical welfare of the Lodge girls.

Anniston, January r.-(Special)-All of the organizations having at heart the interest of the soldiers are stressing the importance of furnishing diversion dur ing the tedious days before demobiliza- ton.
 Mir. D. c. Durham, the executive secre- tary of the war camp community ser vice, who is rendering such a vast amount of invaluable aid to the Camp Mcclellan men in uniform, in speaking of this service said At no time dur ing the history of Anniston have the people had more serious responsibilities than those which rest upon them since the armistice has been signed. The in centive for overseas service has been talk en away from the men in camp and there is a very serious drop in morale dur ing the period before demobilization takes place The recreationaI facilities in camp and in the city must be greatly increased and carefully planned.
 -If this is to become a demobilization camp" continued Mir. Durham, and men from overseas are to be located here in large numbers, our responsibilities win be even greater I wish to express my personal appreciation of the hearty CO., operation which was given MT. Vase and his assistants in the past and to express the hope that the public will as heartily cooperate with his successor in the fu- ture.''
 The war camp community service has recently built and equipped with every convenience a new recreation room for the soldiers. which will be thrown open to the public on Saturday. Interesting programmes have been planned for Satur- day afternoon and evening and the pop ular hostess, Mrs. Daisy Brewer Walsh, vii, be assisted in entertaining and serv- ing refreshment to the khaki clad callers by a charming coterie of Anniston maids and matrons.
 Ever since the location in Alabama of Camp Mcclellan loyal women in all of the towns near the cantonment have en- tered with self-sacrificing cooperation irtc a patriotic comradeship of service. Continued acts of thoughtfulness from Alabama women will carry the right spirit to the men, and enable them to realize that we appreciate to the full est entent their bravery in meeting the supreme test by offering their lives to vii. security for America and freedom for the world
