The question now is: Does agricul-
ture get the benefit of the subsidy
the benefit of this tax exemption?
1.-The jefnt stock land banks claim
that agriculture Is benefited. They
claim that the government and that
the people as a whole will be more
than compensated by the increased
production and by the lowering Of the
cost of living.
Agriculture requires a different
kind of financing than that required
for commercial business. We have
large commercial banks the country
over that provide millions Of dollars
of liquid capital for commercial busi-
ness without income tax or any ex-
pense whatever excepting what the
bank may levy. Now a farmer wants
to finance his farm for the production
Of cattle, he wants money to build up
a herd Of thoroughbred cattle. He
goes to his banker and says: Il need

charged with high treason-or para
phrased through courtesy as "plot-

fore the High Court of the French
senate. The penalty on conviction
usually is death.
The trial probably will ebe the last

court proceedings connected with the
complicated drama of treason and in
trigue by which the French govern

defeatist campaign when Germany
was battering hardest at the gates of
Verdun. They wanted Germany to
come so near to winning the war that
Caillaux, as leader of the enemies of
the administration at Paris, might be
called to preserve the republic, thus
embracing Premier Clemenceau.
Trial of Caillaux was decided upon
on September 16 last by the French
senate committee investigating the
defeatist movement. The basis of
the charges against the former pre-

port of the senatorial committee
corresponding to an Indictment in

Political notes discovered in a
