here ever since cOaling the boat.
This is the first land we have seen
since we left San Francisco, the good
old U. S. A, October 5, 1918.
1--WE had an uneventful trip, tho
the weather was cold and stormy all
the way The boat is big and rides
very we'll in the rough sea although
we were tossed about more or less in
the worse squat, particularly did we
notice it, the first few days out. I
lost two dinners but was not very
sick. Some nights almost rolled out
of the berth. They are built with a
side board for that reason. We had
about one hundred and twenty Off
GERS on board, twenty-seven army
Red Cross nurses, some enlisted men
and about three hundred crew.
Among the officers we have some
French officers and I have learned a
little French because I could talk
German with them. Have two Cath
Ollie chapIains on board. Have mass
every morning and a general service
at ten. l was choir leader, can you
imagine. All hymns I never saw, all
demonstrations and a Catholic priest
leading it. It was good. Both priests
are very nice; both are quite young
Have done much singing on board.
Sang a duet with nurse at our
movies which we have two or three
times a week. Y. M. G. A. man, nice
fellow too. Danced on board. Philli-
pine orchestra, very good. Music
with meals. We sailed northwest
from San Francisco until about even
with Vancouver and then west. At
one time we were only sixty miles
from the AIeutian islands of Alaska.
Cold! Steam heat aboard we should

very modern. Very interesting to
me, first sea voyage. Hope can come
home another way.

WOULD PUT PENALTY
ON CASH CAR FARES

Application today was filed by the
Washington-Old Dominion Railway
with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission for permission to charge a
penalty on cash fares. Where the
fare Is 80 cents or less, the penalty
would be cents, and where it is 81
cents or over the penalty would be
10 cents, IL the application Is granted
by the commission.
Payment of cash fares holds up the
service on the line to the fnconv-
venience of other passengers, George
c Baggett general freight and pas
senger agent, said.
At the present time the penalty is
charged and a receipt redeema Bile
within ten days is issued to the pas
senger. Baggett explained that the
practice of getting on trains without
tickets has become so general that
the trains have to slow down in or
der that the conductors may write
the receipts. Their redemption also
costs heavily in bookkeeping ex-
penses. he said.
Officials OF the road said that re-
quest for retaining the penalty does
not apply to the line through Cherry
dale and Mclean to Great Falls, as
there are no ticket agencies, unless
passenger leaving Washington had
tailed to purchase a ticket The ap-
plication is primarily intended to de-
crease the number of cash fares on
the line to Bluemort, where there are
ticket agencies, Baggett said.

The kids won't get full enjoyment
out of Christmas from the toys YOU
take them, Good Fellow, If their
stomachs are empty on Christmas
Day. Remember, it is up to you to
supply merry Christmas. You are
the only one toward whom they are
looking for happiness on that day.
When you fill up your basket it
should contain not only the toys and

Need More Than Gifts.
Some Good Fellows have obtained
the idea that gifts other than candies
and toys are not needed. That is not
the case. Some families will go
without holiday dinners unless Good
Fellows supply them. While the
main idea is to make the kids happy,
the father or mother should be able
to share in that happiness by pre-
pairing a good substantial meal for
the whole family.
The Times takes this opportunity
also to say that the use of its name
has not been authorized in any
scheme such as raffles, sales, or
other profit making enterprises, the
proceeds of which are to be used in
Good Fellow work. The Times mere
ly serves as an agent in bringing the

recognized both by administrative
officers and by the Congress. In
administering the law we have
kept two files-one Of a legisla-
tive character and the other OF
an administrative character. We
have submitted recently to the
Congress this legislative file
which is a compilation OF the
valuable suggestions which the
department has accumulated from
taxpayers and from those in the
bureau who have made special
analytical study Of the law. This
compilation is being published by
the Ways and Means Committee

Congress, at its present session,

communications which the bureau
has submitted.
Among the ineualities dwelt
upon are those regarding earned
and unearned incomes. For in
stance, the commissioner was
asked, why should the man whose
brain is his capital, and who
makes $4,000 a year working
hard, spending most of it as he
goes, be taxed as heavily as the
man who has bonds that pay him
$4,000 a year? When the man
with the bonds dies his capital is
still there. When the man with
brains as capital dies, his capital
is wiped out with him. Is that
just right?

these vital problems of income
taxation, Mr.. Roper went no fur.

great administrative difficulty in
