directly opposite to the one exercised
by Great Britain. That country taxes
the appetites of the people--that is to
say, Great Britain imposes stiff excise
and import duties on liquors, tobacco,
tea, coffee and sugar, making all of its
people get under the tax burden. In
this country the Democrats always
have exhibited horror of taxing the
poor mans breakfast sugar. We have
just thrown away billion dollars a
year in revenue in adopting the pro-
hibition amendment. If this country
in it's economic policy keeps on burden
ing ordinary business with increasing
income taxes and excess profit taxes
the business so overburGened will seeA
other countries.
"Now that the prohibitionists have
voted abolish the sale Of alcoholic
beverages, look to see the same peo-
pie within the next few years bring
about the abolition of the use of tea
and coffee and tobacco. They already
have started in on tobacco. Tea and
coffee will come next. Englan. gets as
much revenue as possible out Of it's
people appetites by taxing their indul-
gencies. We get the minimum and
transfer the tax burden to other busi-

Erzberger Accused
OF F Falsifying by
Haase i'm Assembly
Misrepresented Attitude of
Independent Socialists i'm
Anti-Bolshevik Alliance.
Says Leader i'm Speech

WEIMAR, March 20 (By The Asso-
ciated Press).--1n the National AS
sembly to-day Hugo Haase, the Inde-
pendent Socialist leader. made a vio-
lent attack upon Gustave Noske, the
Minister of Defence, for his methods
IN suppressing the recent strikes, the
shooting of Spartacans and other al
legged abuses of power, claiming that
the Defence Minister'S course consti-
tuted return to Imperialism.
Herr Haase also attacked Chancellor
Schiedemann for Understanding Sun
days demonstration in Berlin in fa-
vor of General LudendorfF, declaring
this showed that the present military
leaders of the nation were standing
solidly behind Ludendorff, supported
by the Conservatives and other parties
Of tho right, as we'll as portion Of
the bourgeoisio.
Herr flansc, VINO was frequently In
tcrruptcd during his attack, declared
in favor Of entering into Immediate
relations with Russn, saying that the
Ukraine would soon be able TO supply
Germany with raw materials and later
with food. He said, however, that the
Independent Socialists would not CON
slider treaty with Russia as one mill
tating against England or the Entente
in general. They merely desired the
end of the war to come, he declared.

when he told of Cabinet meeting
held on December IL at which Indc~
pendent Socialist non members Of the
government who were present agreed
with decision to send note to the
Entente urging the necessity for a
common fight against Bolshevism by
Germany and the Entente
Herr Erzberger, in reply to this, in
sisted that his statements were true.
Herr Noske, in his .reply to Herr
llaasc, charged the Independents with
being the originators of the Sparta
Gus Vaccinations and said the govern
ment would place before the Assembly
all the facts in connection with the
"murderous acts" Of the Spartacans.

 ing Proposed Improvements.

Estimates and plans are being drawn up for the board of water commissioners and public works board for proposed improvements in New Brltaln's water supply at Shuttle Meadow.

 The matter of raising the present dam at Shuttle Meadow was brought up at the meeting yesterday afternoon but is not a practicable one as the present dam would not stand raising, City Engineer Hall has found The engineer talked of constructing a new dam at a different point but it was feared that a seepage condition, such as exists at Whigville might arise. Plans were talked over for installing a filtration system. Regarding, the tunnel at Burlington, plans for which were drawn several months ago and for which estimates are to be called soon, the engineer had nothing to say until after his report is made.

ALLIGATOR HAS GOOD POINTS
South Carolina Newspaper Gives Some
Reasons Why lndiscriminate Kill
ing Should Be Stopped.

The alligator is another good citi-
zen whose usefulness is overlooked,
for killing alligators has been from
time immemorial a popular pastime.
In Louisiana it was found that when
the alligators were killed off the
muskrats multiplied and destroyed the
levees; also the cotton-mouth moe
casin, the garfish and the carp in
creased wonderfully. Whereupon pro-
lection was given to the a~lligators.
This lacertilian, to give him his cor
rect family name, has probably kept
the muskrat away from the South Car
DINA coast, for the muskrat is I'M
known on the coast. If allowed to
multiply the alligator will make in
roads on the carp, the garfish and the
cotton-mouth, all undesirable mem
| bers of our fauna. The sum total of
| the %alligator's evil doing amounts to
this: He catches a dog row and then !;
once in a long while pulls a hog or
bites the tail off a COW, for sundry
| stump-tailed COWS along the Atlantic
Coast Line right of way have met
misfortune in this way. The COW, the
dog and the hog are out of place when
the alligator can get 1T them; but
at best very little of this happens
