library shelves are loaded with dis

Without going into the impossible
technique of the income tax. it is
enough to say that as at present lev
led the making out of a truthful and
accurate statement is practically be-
yond the reach of the ordinary man
who is engaged in the usual human
activities involving incomes and dis
bursements Even if he has only a
salary for which to account the var
ious deductions, computations, al
lowances, surtaxes and complications
leave in his own mind the gravest of
doubt when he has finished whether
he has made an accurate return and
is warranted in mourning the severe
penalties Of the act by making the
requisite sworn statement that the
return is accurate The intolerable
IDEA of employing an "income tax
expert" at additional expense is one

Discovery as a prerequisite to the

been emphasized in a recent decision

Of Cole VS.. Ralph. This case dealt with
a dispute at Copper Canyon, near
Battle Mountain, New; it came before
the supreme court on a writ of GER
torari, the court of appeals having
previously reversed the lower court.
The supreme court holds that loca-
ton confers no right in the absence
of discovery, both being essential to a
valid claim. Section 1882 of the U. S.
Revised Statutes provides that pos

statutory period of limitations is the

WHEN WAR is MURDER.
(Chicago Tribune)

Congressman Caldwell democrat of

on universal military training 1t was
SO dramatic in its truth and accusing
in its logic that it ought to have made
an impression upon any political body.
The truth of what the American
troops suffered in France because of
the military policy which the United
States follows is brutal.
Facts are indictments and Ameri-
can politics and the American people
are put on trial by them. In self-de-
Tense politicians and people try to
shut their eyes to the facts but they
are accusing and insistent.

Caldwell, showing how unframed men
We're sent to DEATH said that from
his district a boy was drafted who
never had a gun in his hands before
and five weeks after he was drafted
he was buried in the trenches.
Military men are not responsible
for the helplessness of the United
States They have to work with the
policy the politicians and American
public opinion will give them That
policy is murderous because it insists
that men shall not know how to do
the thing the nation from time to time

THE SILK SHIRT.
(Anaconda standard)

NAudCOllud olduudIuJ
While their motive possibly is one
to advertise the town by injecting a
note of conservatism into its reputa-
tion for frivolity, the action of the
Atlantic City n j., haberdashers in
agreeing to place a ban on silk shirts
is one worthy of respectful consider
alton. The silk shirt, they contend, is
a 100 per cent extravaganza, a pure,
undiluted luxury without either beau
ty or durability to justify it's existence
in the scheme of creation. The prices
such shirts bring are as fancy as their
patterns and gentlemen-using the
word now in its society sense-are re-
quested to boycott them not only as
things inimical to the peace and the
quiet of the individual communities
in which they live and move and have
their being, but in the interests of
at large; the argument be-
ing that such a boycott will rapidly
percOlate downward to the great pc

EARLY FINANCIAL TROUBLES
FOR LEAGUE OF NATIONS.

Despite the fact that most of the
countries Of the world are members
Of the league of nations, that organi-
cation is having difficulty in meet
ing running expenses. Even though
ii is only in its formative stages and
has not yet undertaken the solution
of questions of international moment
it finds itself hard pressed for funds.
1t is understood that the secretary
has been forced to give his notes to
private London bankers in order to
raise sufficient money to pay his sal
AIRY and the salaries of the other
members Of the secretariat. Special
appropriations for the purpose must
be voted by the various parliaments,
and they seem very loath to set aside
money for such a purpose; in fact, the
Spanish national assembly has defeat
ed a bill to appropriate 100000 for
the league headquarters One reason
for the leagues financial embarrass-
ment is found in the eXhorbitant sal
aries paid its officials. For instance,

the French socialist, who heads the

ant MonteauX, the Interpreter of the
peace conference, is said to get $780,
eco. The labor bureau is reported to
be packed with socialists, all of whom
are given very generous compensa-
ton. 1t appears that freedom from
financial obligation towards mainte-
nance of the league secretariat is not
the least of the blessings the United
