GOVERNMENT TAXED
PEOPLE S45 EACH

WASHINGTON, August 20.-The
next President to assume control OF
the nation will have a mighty task 10
his hand. Only a part of IL will be,
the consideration of its Brobding-
nagian tax bill. That word is used 10
indicate that the bill is a whopper.
Its G%argantauan size is as unfamiliar
to many as the only terms is which
it may be fittingly expressed. Pre-
liminary figures compiled by the bu-
reau of internal revenue show that
during the fiscal year ending June
80 the people of the United States
paid into the federal treasury the
staggering total of s~5,410,2S4.ST5 in
axes. 1t is the greatest annual tax
bill ever assessed against any nation;
1t is. nearly se~venty-five per cent
more than the taxes paid during 1918
or 1919, when war expenses were at
the peak.
Estimating the population of the
United States at 120, 900, 900, the taxes
paid last year amount On an average
of forty-five dollars per capita. 1t is
a sum no other nation on earth could
stand. The total represents about
two per zen of the aggregate wealth
of the country.

If it was right for our associates
to make a separate peace with the
defeated foe, why is it all wrong for
the United States to do likewise?
The manifest tendency of the press
to give, in full, the name of the
Democratic vice-presidential nominee
must be just a bit annoying to u
friends on the other side of the poll
tical fence.
Candidate Cox says in his speech
Of acceptance hat he is opposed to

small tax on every going concern. Is
not this a consumption tax?

CENSUS MAY CHANGE
LINEUP HOUSE

WASHINGTON, August 20.-Repre-
sentative Siegel. of New York, chair
man of the census committee, which
will frame the new apportionment bill
is authority for the statement that un-
less the membership of the house of
representatives is increased from 455
to 500 TO meet the increased popula-
ton shown by the 1920 census. ten
states will lose one or more repre-
sentatives in the house. The ten
states that are due to lose are: In
diana, Iowa and Missouri. due to lose
two congressman each, and Illinois,
Kentucky, Maine Maryland. Nebraska.
Vermont and Virginia due to lose one
congressman each.
Representative Siegle expects the
work of framing the new apportion-
ment bill in accord with the new
population to begin with the recon-
vening of congress in December and
he anticipates that the measure will
be passed early in 1921. He explains
that If the house membership is re-
tanned at it's present figure 1t will be
necessary to increase the population
basis in each congressional district
beyond the 211 900, or major portion
thereof, now fixed. If this is done,
he says, the ten states named will
lose one or two of the present dis
tricts. because their populations have
not increased in proportion to those
of other states.

SYMBOL OF FRENCH PR0WESS
Martial Bird Placed In Prominent
Position on Pont de kehl, over
the River Rhine.

A Gallo cock now adorns the POnt
de Kehl on the Rhine at StrasbOurg
where but only the other day sat erect
the griffin of Baden, symbolizing the
iron heel upon Alsace. The idea of
the setting up Of the Gallo cock was
that Of the French general, Cernesson,
the first officer in charge Of the engi-
neers In freed Strasbourg. The
scheme was put before General
Hirschauer and was Immediately
adopted. The sculptor chosen to carve
the .emblematlc bird was the Alsatian
Schultz. Since the peace treaty gave
France possession Of the entire length
of the Rhine bridges, the Gallo cock
In bronze has been placed aloft on the
right bank OF the Rhine. II has an
air, that bird the air Of the king Of
the barnyard Justify growing at dawn.
1t may be hailing peace, but the cock
Is naturally martial bird and this
particular one with It's eye fixed on
Germany certainly commands respect.
1t had been the intention TO use the
bronze Of kaiser statue In the cast
ing of the POnt de Kehl cock, but the
statue of William ! before the palace
In StrasbOurg was found to belle its
appearance and to be merely compO-
sition.

Doctor Berthler describes In bull

how he prepares the bones. He Sc

them, bolls them with vegetables, salt
and piece Of meat for almost six
hours and then lets his patients pick
out with their forks as much OF the
soft bony matter as they can.

bones IL that they help to prevent de

SNOW HOUSES QUICKLY BUILT
Residence That Satisfies Eskimo Can
BE Put Together In Something
Like Six Hours.

II takes about six hours to build
6rst-class winter residence in Eskimo
land. The material, snow cut from
bank that must have been made in n
single storm, must be solid and homo
geneOus, fine, yet soft enough to be
easily cut with saw or snow knife. The
blocks are three or four feet long, two
feet high and six to eight inches thick.
They are piled on one another, some
thing like in building brick house,
save that they are placed to form
spiral, inclined inward, to form
dOme-shaped structure When finished
the hUHse Is 10 or IL feet high and II
TO 10 feet In diameter and has the ap-
pearance of n hemisphere of snow set
on its fiat side. An entrance, big
enough to crawl through, Is made on
one side and on either side of 1t are
cubby-holes for the storage of harness,
spare food, etc. A window Is cut in
the wall and covered with seals In
testines, sewed together. These are
translucent and admit daylight. In
lieu of that slab Of clear fresh
water ice may be used, The house Is
lined with skins to prevent the warm
air from the inside from melting the
snow roof. Between the skins and the
wall there is always a layer of cold
mir. There Is also small hole cut In
the roof for ventilation. and to pro-
vide draught for the family lamp,
On the side of the house opposite the
entrance broad snow bench Is built,
with a long pole for an edge. This Is
the family bed. For mattress
thick layer of shrubs is spread upon
it and over these many deerskins.
Clothes, when taken off, are rolled up
and put under the skins for pillows.
One blanket Of skins serves to cover
the whole family.

GOATS MILK FINDING FAVOR
Prejudice Against This Cheap ana
Nutritious Food Seems In Fair
Way to Disappear.

Goats, It must be admitted, have
never been taken seriously by public
opinion in the United States, and the
news that the owner of the largest
herd In the American Northwest Is
preparing to establish an extensive
dairy for the sale of goats milk VIII
probably seem TO many rather humor-
Gus. AS n matter OF fact, however, II
appears that promising beginning Is
already made, and that the city of
Seattle, conveniently near the great
herd of goats on Cypress island, In
the Puget Sound archipelago, already
consumes about thousand quarts OF
goats' milk day. Publicity VIII per-
haps be necessary to overcome the
American habit of regarding the goat
humorously, and It may take time ana
patience to prove widely the stnte-
ment of the owner of the herd that
goats milk is quite as good, II not
actually better, than cows milk. Five
cents day, says he, will pay the cost
of keeping goat whose average milk
production Is two or three quarts
and two quarts of milk for cents
would make n considerable difference
In the food expense of family. The
goat dairy may be more Important
than II seems and ten years from now
such diaries may be commonplace.
