BINGHAM INHERITANCE TAXES
WILL PAY STATE DEBT.

Inheritance taxes on the estate OF
the late Mrs. Mary Lily Bingham,
formerly Mrs. Henry M. Flagler, Of
New York, if paid on the basis of a
final valuation, will produce $4,537,-
418.9S, and not only wipe out the
Indebtedness Of the State Of Ken
lucky, placed at 3,165,106.19, but
leave a balance in the State Treas
ury OF s1,372,312.7S, according to
the report of the State inheritance
tax appraiser filed in the County
Court at Louisville.
The report shows the estate to be
worth 500, an increase of
approximately s30,000,000 over the
valuation placed upon it by the ex-
ecutors at the time of Mrs. Bingham S
death in Louisville, July 81, 1917.
The increased valuation swells the
portion of Mrs. Louise Clisby Wise
of New York, favorite niece OF Mrs
Bingham and the principal bene-
ficiary under her will to $72,846,-
63S.45, according to the figures OF
the appraiser.

SUBSTITUTE FABRlCs.

Whether any of the substitute fab.
RIGS produced by German textile sci
entists will survive the period of stern
necessity is prOblematical. The COM
ment of the optimistic German press is
that several Of them are good enough
to endure after the war. Thus, favor
able mention is made of ''textilit," the
product of a paper thread and fiber
thread twisted together, containing
only a small percentage of long fiber,
says Providence Journal. Weaving
and sewing yarns are made from it
and according to one authority "the
uninitiated cannot distinguish the new
products from former linen or jute
fabrics" "Paper cloth" seems to be
largely a myth, however. At the third
fiber exposition, at Leipzig, recently,
the best approved achievements in
substitutes contained some fiber and,
apparently, the larger the proportion
the greater was the success achieved.
The exhibit Of the Papiergarngesell-
schaft, the most elaborate In the whole
show, comprised largely cloths woven
Of fax, hemp, wool, cotton and silk
fiber mixed with paper yarn" Paper
spinning, as a matter of fact, was in
troduced in Germany long before the
war, and clothing was regularly made
of mixtures containing some percent
age of paper. The third exposition
was notable, also, for displays Of fiber
plants, as cattails. The new processes
have undoubtedly been fruitful In pro-
noting skyrocketing speculation in In
dustrial stocks, which would have
made dismal showing otherwise.

Woman's Reasoning.

1t is rather hard to find better
logic than that supplied in the views
of Miss ChristabeI Pankhurst relat-
ing to the economic conditions of
the world. This clever woman
whose views with regard to suffrage
for her sex, made her world-famous,
has given her time to the cause of
democracy for more than four years,
and among the worlds ills of which
she complains is the mania for So
called democratic control of indus
try" She voices the fundamental
proposition that only through in
creased production can living condi-
lions be adequately bettered. The re-
strictions of pre-war trade union
conditions and workshop practices,
with their realizing the great aim
of securing to the mass of the peo-
pie the comforts, refinements and lux
uries as yet enjoyed only by the few. "
The so-called democratic control of
industry" she says, means muddle,
delay, confusion, divided counsels,
stagnation and retrogression-the
production of commodities will fall
instead of rising, poverty will in
crease and the standard of living
will fall to it's lowest point. Only
grown-up children, exploited by
those who know perfectly we'll
what they are doing, would make this
demand that exists in some quarters
for control of industry"
These English problems appear
quite like our own, and Miss Pank-
hurst is emphatic in the belief that
employers and employees can accom-
plish most for the general good by
thinking less about control" "or
ganization," "unionism," and short
days, and by turning their atten-
ton instead, to increased produc-
! ton.

SEX IN WORDS.

The United States government has
solemnly decided that an aviator Is an
aviator, regardless of sex. This deci-
sion Is in line with modern usage,
which is finally the controlling infiu-
ence in writing and speaking. Gener-
ally for years the tendency has been
to drop the distinguishing suffix from
words that may rightly be employed to
designate either sex, and thus the
language, both written and spoken, Is
being freed from awkward efforts, the
origin of which lay deep In mans gal
lantry, but which have lost most, If not
all, of their significance under modern
customs. Woman herself has aided in
this. Her entrance into all avenues of
human activity or occupation has given
her at least right to share In the full
meaning Of the word that denotes her
position, and not to be set off in sep
arate class by the addition of "trix'
or an "ess," intended to show that 1t
Is the female of the species who is
present, says Omaha Bee. In the case
Of the aviator, when arrayed for duty
1t Is impossible for the casual observer
to distinguish between man and wom-
an. The same condition holds good
in many other ways, and the change in
the words is but tribute to woman's
increasing sphere. With the vanishing
Of SEX from the language, we may re-
new the quest for the impersonal pro-
noun.

We are proud, immensely proud, Of
the fact that the establishment Of
American ideals has been made the
primary purpose of the war, and that
they are to be the essential principles
of peace. We are proud that it was
given to US to become the deciding
factor in the glorious conclusion. But
we must remember that we have but
shared in the work, says st. Louis
Globe-Democrat. We must not detract
one whit from the splendor Of other
achievements. We must not forget
that each and every nation has played
its part nobly In the struggle. We
must not forget the tremendous sacri-
fees besides which ours are but little.
We must not forget the invfncible
spirit that maintained an unbrOken
front through years of awful anguish.
