HARDING SPEAKS At

Marion, Ohio. Oct. 4-Senator Hard
ing left Marion today by motor TO
make a speech near Fremont, Ohio,
10 miles away at the decoration of
memorial tablet in honor of soldiers
who lost their lives in the great war.
In the address prepared for the oc-
casion Senator Harding praised the
heroism of the American expedtionary
force and asked that their services
he made an example to American citi-
aens in peace time patriotism. Tie did
not touch on political issues.
In making plans for the trip two

the ceremonies.
Later information was received
here however, that the governor would
not be present.

The Few financial measures adopted
by Italy are probably the most drastic
and farreaching imposed by any con-
tinental country. Former taxes have
been replaced by a single tax on nor
NAL revenue on fiat maximum basis
of Is per cent, supplemented by tax
Of the same character, on progressive
basis, ranging from TO 25 per cent.
Extra war profits are subject TO tax
which represents an average levy of 80
per cent of the total extra profit. In
creases in capital are taxable an addi-
tional 221s per cent. 1t therefore fol-
lows that about 72h per cent of as
certained war profits is forfeited to the
Italian Treasury.
Treasury receipts for the current fis-
cal year show an increase of 1,329,00O.-
600 lire, as compared with the fiscal
year 1888.
Under the new German income tax
law, which went into force recently,
the German people are confronted with
the heaviest income tax In the worid
on small and moderate incomes. The
law provides for a specific exemption
of an income of 1000 marks a year for
a single man and 1,500 marks year
for married man and for further
exemption of 300 marks for each child.
Al the rate Of exchange of 2 cents for
mark, these exemptions amount TO
500 a year for a single man, $50 for
married man and Sc for each child.
Based upon the same rate of exchange.
the taxes paid by clerk. who after MS
apprenticeship starts with a yearly sal
airy of 10000 marks, would be 6o per
cent of his annual income.
In addition, there is q fat tax Of lO
per cent on all income derived from
capital, as distinguished from income
from labor, from profession and trade,
and fiat tax Of 10 per cent on the
income of corporations. Besides the
federal taxes, there are also state anu
local taxes.
1t is not surprising that European
peoples, facing their unprecedentediy
