the excess profits tax should be re-
pealed and must, of course, be re-
placed. He said he believed it should
"be replaced in large part by some
form of corporation profits tax"
Reduction of the higher groups of
the income surtaxes accompanied by
increases in the lower income sur
tax rates also is suggested by the
secretary who asked that congress
consider such general revision
with a reduction to a maximum rate
lower than that contained in the
present law, provided acceptable
new taxes of equal yield can be
found.
The secretary said the fact was
that the present rates, which are as
high as 20 per cent could not be
successfully collected and that "the
effective way to tax the rich is to
adopt rates that do not force in
vestment in tax exempt securities. !"

revised to make up for the loss of
revenue occasioned by the changes
in the taxes which he recommended.
The net cost of the war to the A
merican government was fixed by
Secretary Houston at $24,010,0O0,-
900. This, ne said, represented the
"adjusted" expenditure Of the
treasury, excluding all other outlay
which had no relation to the actual
prosecution of the war during the
period from April 6, 1917, to June
80, last, which, he sadi, covered the
extremes of the governments war

cation for everybody Except defec-
tives,) and an advanced education
for all who are capable of profiting
themselves and society by it. "Univer-
sal secondary education must become
the American slogan" We must quit
talking about children that have to
drop out of school early; instead we
must find means of keeping them in
school. This will mean more than the
enactment of the nineteenth amend
ment, more than the 8-14 compulso-
ry attendance law, more than free
textbooks; it may mean free food and
clothing in some cases. 1t will mean a
curriculum adapted to the social
needs of twentieth century civiliza-
ton. It will certainly mean teachers
adequately trained and adequately
paid for these new responsibilities.
Such school system may seem Uto-
plan but there are indisputable evil
dences of it's approach.
One of the foremost factors in
bringing US to realization of our
dreams is the making of the school the
social center in our respective COM
munities, be they rural or urban. How
may the school become the social CEN
ter, extending its influence and pow
er to the adult life Of the community,
in enlisting the sympathetic encour-
agement of enlightened as we'll as
illiterate parents in the work we are
trying to do for them and theirs.
When you have struck the sympa-
thetic chords of the mothers hearts,
especially, by unfolding to them your
daily problems and proving to them
by rather frequent association with
them that it is your earnest desire
to train their children to be better
citizens you are on the right road to
better schools, better salaries and
better living.

made from the grand total, since
these loans will be repaid and cen
sequently can not be charged as an
actual expenditure. The secretary
made other deductions aggregating
approximately 100000 which
he said, represented the excess cost
Of actual government operations
for the three year and three months
over what they would have been in
normal times.

WHO scRAPPED THE LEAGUE?

Senator Harding's most conspicuous
lnfirmity is strikingly illustrated by
this reference to the manner in which
the treaty was disposed of in the Sen
ate:
| and others set about to protect
the country with the best safeguarding
reservations we could write before we
could consent to anything like ratifi-
| cation. And afterwards the President
scrapped his own League and refused
to permit the Senate to ratify.
What Il and others actually did is
plainly set forth in the record. For
months Il and Others" urged and voted
for amendments and reservations to
the treaty which they knew would
make ratification impossible and which
if accepted would invalidate the agree
ment. Il and others" loaded the cove
nant down in this fashion with the
knowledge that all of the no-League
Republicans who voted for the reser-
yations. and most of the Democrats,
would oppose the treaty as thus mutt
lated
Rejection was finally accomplished
40 to So. the majority lacking seven OF
the required two-thirds. Of those
favoring ratification twenty-eight were
Republicans and twenty-one Demo
Gratis, most of the latter yielding to
what they considered the only terms
on which the League could be had. Of
those in opposition twenty-three were
Democrats and twelve Republicans,
the latter comprising the wrecking
crew with whom Il and others" CO.
operated Loyalty in ripping the cove
nant so that it really satisfied nobody.
This is how Il and others" were de-
feated by the President, who refused
TO permit the Senate to ratify."
There never was an honest purpose
on the part of Republican Senators to
accept the treaty. The irreconcilables
made no secret of their hostility, but
Il and Others led by Mr.. Lodge, ar
rived at the same goal by indirection
What Il and others" voted for was not
the treaty. 1t was a document blotted
all over with cowadrice, treachery and
falsehood. The Democrats who reluc-
family favored it evidently believed, as
no Republican did, that, even so. some
good might come from it.-World.

CITIES GROW AT coUNTRY'S Elk
PENSE

To the United States as a Nation of
which the growth in urban population
shows a fixed tendency to become in
creasingly more rapid than that of the
country districts the warning signal
has again been given. The Census Bill
reau figures point their own moral;
aside from the plain facts they indi-
cate no way in which the change that
is gaining Roadway is to be arrested.
Today, of the total population con-
siderably more than half lives in cities
OF over $500, although only ten years
ago the balance still inclined strongly
in the other direction. Most signifi-
cant is the increase of urban popu-
lation since 1910 at the rate of 25.2 per
cent. as compared with that of the
rural districts at the rate of only 3.4
per cent. For what is described as
strictly farm territory the rate was
even lower, or only SO per cent
To the Eastern States, with their
earlier rise as an industrial empire,
this condition presents no new prob
lem. Their cities have long been
steadily expanding in size and num-
bers at the expense of the open areas
tributary to them. Their man-power
has been diverted more and more
from the farms and villages to the
crowded centers. What the census re-
ports prove is that problem hereto
fore mainly sectional has taken on a
national aspect and bearing
The United States is becoming over
industrialized. 1t has drawn dispro-
pCrtionately upon the land in the ex-
cessive expansion of trade and manu-
features. It's mills and factories are

the prospect of precarlous food sup

The following article from the

sln upon ire alleged Acknowledgement
of the war by the Wilson administra-
tion.
zone % their chief criticisms Is that
the president ran the war as a parti.
san Democratic affair and that billions
Of the peoples money were wasted be-
cause OF the ineficiency of the Demo
Gratis.
Now there Is a great difference of
opinion among people. who ought to
know something about II. whether the
war. from the American standpoint,
was well or poorly managed.
"As there Is no possible way to de-
eide the question. Il will probably al
ways be debated.
IT was the most stupendous job
ever undertaken by any nation In the
worlds history. and necessarily cost
a bot 81 money.
Whether Il cost a few billions less
or few billions more than IL would
have cost II somebody else-say ,Roos.
welt. or Hughes. or Taft-had been
president, Is purely speculative.
zone thing we do know is that the
tremendous power on the battle front
brought about Germany's defeat at
least a year sooner than any allied
leader expected. and that the cost in
American lives was less than anybody
thought Il would be.
"a very large part of whatever
waste" In money there may have
been is properly chargeable to the
speed with which America developed
her power.
This speed cost money but saved
lives.

war is an issue in the presidential cam.
