LONDON, England, June 1S.-Fi-
nancial interests and wealthy. individ-
uals are worried over increasing aEi-
tation to tax war wealth. The chan
cellor of the exchequer, Mr.. Cham
berlain. has declared in favor Of this
plan to pay off Great. Britain's stag
gering debt. The governments in
land revenue authorities have also de-
clared that the plan is practicable.
The moneyed classes favor a tax on
incomes that would include classes
who are now confronted BY. an almost
unbearable living cost problem.
MONTREAL, Quebec, June 49,
The executive council of the A. F. of
L. has recommended to the annual
convention of the A. F. of L. that
excessive war profits be taxed as a
means Of reducing the governments
war debt and secure the partial re-
tirement of liberty bonds at par. The
unlonists show that this plan will also
reduce the present initiation Of cur

New Orleans Association Of
Commerce Urges Appropria-
tiQn for Labor Department.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The re-
sentiment against the failure Of con-
gress to appropriate sufficient funds
to conduct the department of labor
is nation wide. Employers in all in
dustries complain that funds should
be appropriated for the United States
employment service particularly. ...
This is shown by the following let
ter received by President Gompers
from H.. Van r. Chase, manager Of
operations of the New Orleans .Asso-
citation of Commrce:
Il am instructed to advise you that
we strongly recommend and urge
congress to appropriate sufficient
money to conduct the department of
labor so that it can function properly,
and that we ,desire TO join with the
American Federation of Labor in urg-
ing congress to appropriate sufficient
funds for the department of labor,
and have so advised our congress
men," =.
This demonstrates that the oppo-
sition to the department of labor
comes from the politicians and not
from the fair employers of the coun-
try.

Z improving the service. and later;t
when prices come down, to reduce the
fare.
The hops of Duluth is in the city
ownership Of the street railway sys-
tenn. When a private company owns
traction system it objects to making
extensions into new territory until the
section is sufficiently settled to guar
antee returns from the first day. A
privately. system follows in the
wake of city. 1t does no pioneer
iElg such as the city does with it's wa
ter and light Improvements. And yet
Duluth will always be handicapped in
ITS growth unless the people and the
{street railway are willing to take
!, chance in going into new settlements.
A privately-owned street railway
is rum primarily for profit. That is
the fundamental difference between
private and public ownership The
purchase by the city Of the privately
owned system will mean everything
to Duluth, 1t would be the arch Of
!, the new city temple.
{ If. the: people vote to purchase the
, street. railway system it will let the
h6resent owners out of it. They will
mot then be-: concerned about divi-
dends. There will be no confiscation
of property. They have come to the
!! city and said in so many words: We
have gone the limit. We need help.
We can't afford to carry passengers
on our, lines for five cents. We ask
for six cents. We really need seven
! cents, but we will be satisfied with
one cent less now. If little later we
find out that we can not make it go
we will be back again and ask for the
right to charge seven cents
If the leading citizens Of the city
were as patriotic in civic matters as
they are in war they would not hesi-
tate to reply to the street railway Off
: cials in straightforward, business
way. They would say: ''Very well,
gentlemen; you have our sympathy;
wye are sorry you are not making
good, but we are already taxed too
(much and we are loah to pay any
more. You have had the field all
your own way for good many years,
| some Of which were very profitable.
9NoW we are willing to pay you a
i reasonable sum for your tracks and
equipment; You get out of the way,
, and we will take over the system and
run it for the people at cost We be-
ieve we can do so without finding it
Necessary to raise the fare. This is
q street railway town. Nearly. every
person must use a. street car to 90 to
and from work and it is important
that our people be carried at the low
est rate possible"
. City ownership is the only solution
Of the street railway problem, and the
time to buy the plant is now. The
courts will see to it that the people
are protected. They will not stand
I for an exorbitanat appraisal of the

members 3 like ConGressman !, G4rss
have consist entity voted Tor the 5pe6-,

of them have repeatedly voted against

:: Gave Railroads. Back.
They handed the railroads: back to

ships at a great sacrifice, turning
them over to private interests. -. They
failed to pass a single law recon-
mended by. the President to reduce
the high cost Of living or to stop pro-
1fiteering. -.
On every such measure Congress-
man Carss voted with the people. and
against the private intereSts. He has
made a good voting record IN coA-
, gress. He didn't forget Ehe people
who elected him; and the people
should not forget him now.
Who Oppose Carss?
Every servant Of privilege. In: the
Eighth district is against Mr.. Carss.

prohibition. ~:
Such is the opposition that comes

! will the Democratic and the inde-
pendent labor men and other liberal
voters do about it? The questions in
volved loom larger than party. Indeed
there are liberal and progressive Re
publican members in congress who
recognize this fact and some of them
have gone 50 far as to write personal
letters to friends living I'M this dis
