The Puzzling Tax Blank.

1t was hoped that the income tax
return sheets weuld be sitnplified for
the current year, to enable the aver
age citizen to make his report TO the
collector of internal revenue of his
district without confusion and brain
fag But if anything the new form is
more complicated than the old. 1t
has the same dazing array of tables,
the same subdivision of items, the same
cross references. 1t is larger and to
the average person 1t is appalling.
Paying an income tax is not pleas
ant operation at best, and when it is
accompanied by the double, triple or
quadruple entry practices that to the
uninitiated appear to mark the process
of filing return it becomes especially
burdensome. The great majority of
persons have only two or three figures
to report, the total income and the
exemptions claimed. 1t would sim
plify the procedure immensely if spe-
ciai blank could be provided for such
people, aiding them, making the pay
ment of the tax less of a terror and
really facilitating the clerical work of
the government. AS the blanks are
all prepared for this year there re-
mains for the individual taxpayer
nothing to do but set forth these fig
ufes and take them to his bank and
there ask for expert assistance. The
difficulties in the matter of preparing
the return should not lead to delay.
The first installment on the tax-if the
whole is not paid at onee-is due on
the 18th, week from Saturday, and
there is q heavy penalty for failure to
report on time.

Two Questions,

Two questions are uppermost In the
country today. ~ How long on his
second visit viii the President remain
abfoadf and (2) when, if at all, win
the Si1ty-sixth Congress be called in
extfa session.
A precise answer to neither question
il possible. The President is return
Ing to Europe for purpose, and pre-
Sumabdy will remain until that purpose
10 accomplished. The guess in Paris
io$hree months. But it is only a guess.
Ne forecast, there or here, need com.
nasnd much attention. The peace con-
ference has an enormous amount of
BUSINESS In hand, and cannot well
hurry with the more important fea-
tdfes. The main object will not be to
release President Wilson or any other
delegate at an early day. Both the
delegates and the peoples of the world
want thorough work done by the con-
fefenee.
Had public sentiment in this coun-
tsy been consulted, spring session of
tie new Congress would have been
enlled. And this without regard to the

Discussion of the League,

In his latest statement on the sub
jeet of a league of nations, Senator
Lodge says:
"My desire is simply to have the
constitution for league proposed by
the commission of the peace confer
enee thoroughly and carefully dis
cassed and considered. If it will not
bear discussion it is not fit for adop-
tion. If it is what it ought to be, dis
eussion will only strengthen it. There
must be no haste and no rashness in
determining the most momentous ques-
tion ever presented to the people of the
United States or in the world
This is altogether clear and fair.
What reasonable objection can be
urged to it9 In what particular does
the senator's proposition depart from
recognized American procedurea In
this country We discuss all questions
relating to government that issue from
responsible sources.
Some things in this matter are be-
yond dispute. On his first trip abfoad,
the President took no definite form of
. league with him. The idea had i'm
pressed him, and upon landing on the
other side he began to discuss it with
the leaders there. At that time they
had no plan. A league of nations was
but an idea-a generality-with them.
As the time approached for the
President to return home. it was con-
sidered advisable to put something into
his hand upon which he could base a
report to the American people; and
. plan for league was drafted. The
work, it is confessed, was hastily done
1t did not rest upon any "take-it-or-
leave-it" basis. Rather did it invite
discussion and amendment
Discussion at once began. The Pres
ident himself recognized how natural
and inevitable it was. He did not ask
that there be no discussion at home,
bat only that it be deferred until his
return and he had had opportunity to
explain the instrument Mr.. Lodge
with others granted his wish.
The news from Paris is that the
hastily framed league plan may be
changed, not solely because of Ameri-
ean criticism, but some~hat in response
TO objections offered in both France
and England. This being true, there
is greater reason than ever why Aineri-
can criticism should continue, and 60
TO the very root of the whole question.
The opposition is not to league, but
to the particular world league, pro-
posed by the tentative constitution or
covenant drafted by commission Of
PS1is.

German Wreckage in Briey,

A dispatch from Paris states that
most of the iron mines in the rich
Briey coal basin are in good condition
and can be worked again as soon as
arrangements are made for employing
men. Nothing, however, remains of
the great manufacturing organization
allied with the mines before the war.
Factory buildings which it will take
years to reconstruct were razed by the
Germans and the machinery was de-
stroyed or removed.
This region of Briey was but little
touched by the war. 1t was swept over
in 1914, when the German armies
moved south through Belgium and
France, but there was no hard fight.
ing there. 1t was swept over again last
autumn when the German armies re-
treated. But save for the climax of
the American campaign north Of the
Argonne there was but little destruc.
tion directly due to the war operations.
The damage done by the Germans in
the Briey section was deliberate and
wanton, directly designed to cripple
France after the war. There is no pos
sibility of exeusing it on the ground
of military exigencies. The buildings
were destroyed solely for the purpose
of injuring France in her peaee re.
organization. This was repeated in
other places in France and also in
Belgium. A commission has been at
work Investigating the extent of this
wanton destruction, and the items are
going into the bill that is to be pre-
sented in Germany-and collected up
to the limit of Germany's ability to
pay.
German labor should rebuild those
factories, and German machines should
equip them. If there is shortage of
funds In Germany to replace these de-
struetions and thefts, for which the
war eannot be quoted as a justification,
there should be a restoration in kind.
Buildings cannot be moved from Ger
many into France, but the materials
for building and the labor can be. And,
if possible, for every machine taken or
wrecked beyond the zone of hostilities
a German machine if it can be found
or made in Germany should be sent
into France and Belgium before the
wheels Of industry begin to turn east
of the Rhine.

the people on them are out of danger.
On the other hand, person wishing
to board car has right to believe
that he is entitled to safe passage from
curb to platform. If a street car is
coming which he wishes to board he
cannot afford to wait until there is
wide space between motors before
crossing to the platform. If he takes
his chances with an unchecked stream
Of traffic he may be hit, and, as in the
case the other day, killed. If he waits
for dependable space he may miss
his car. Under the present conditions,
to be safe, he must do all the waiting
and slackening of speed. Considera-
tion should be given to a rule that
designates ear-loading platforms as
danger zones, within which motorists
must keep their cars under control and
be responsible for accidents.

German Ships and Food.

Germany has ships that cannot be
used unless the allies permit. The
sihes need the ships to carry supplies
md ask for them. Germany agrees to

ailies send food in for the support of
the German people until the next har-
vest. The allied commissioners demuf.
