TAXES.

Our modern system never lacks
a fine variety in tax; there's
one for every move we make, or
thing we buy, or pain we ache.
We pay a tax on fountain drinks,
on shoes. and prunes and kitchen
sinks-on all the toggery we
wear and when the barber cuts
our hair.
There is tax to pay on
mops, on sugar, soap and lolly-
pops: in fact there's nothing
on the list that has been
sighted now, or missed.
We're loaded down and full of
tax that feeds upon our money

To Hasten Enactment
Measure Aimed at
'Parlor Bolsheyiks"
and Other Enemies
of Govt. Death
Penalty Included in
Violations - Passed
by Senate Saturday

Washington, Jan. 11-Speedy en-
actment of stringent sedition bill
by Congress was presaged today
when. following passage yesterday
in the Senate of the Sterling bill,
announcement was made that the
House judiciary committee has
agreed upon a similar measure and
probably would report it tomorrow.
One Of the purposes of the bill was
said to be the eradication of 'parlor
bolsheviks."
The House measure, a combination
of Attorney General Palmer's
original bill, introduced by Repre-
sentative Davey of Ohio and revi-
sion made by Representative Ora
ham of Pennsylvania, contains ex-
tremely stringent penalties for viola
tions of the sedition laws.
Included is the death penalty,
which. the bill would have inflicted,
upon the recommendation Of a jury
on persons whose activities against
the government lead to destruction
of life. The measure also would
close the mails and express compan-
les to seditious literature. prohibit
the exhibition of a red flag in con-
nection with mass meetings, deny
persons the right to refuse to give
testimony on the ground that it
might tend to incriminate them and
provide in certain cases for disfran-
chisement and deportatious.
Measures to combat seditious or
CARNATIONS also are included. All
such organizations teaching the use
Of force against the government are
declared to be unlawful and persons
would be prohibited from engaging
in their activities. contributing
money to them or even renting them
property in which to carry on their
work. The giving. loaning or PROM
Using of anything Of value to such Or
CARNATIONS is declared to constitute
utilization with such associations.
Aliens convicted under the act
would be deported after serving their
sentences and prohibited from re-
turning to the country, and persons
who have declared their intention to
become citizens but who have not
been naturalized would become incl
ligible to citizenship.
Conviction Of citizens under all
sections except that providing the
death penalty would carry imprison-
ment for not more than twenty
years, or a fine of not more than
$4,000, or both, and, in addition the
convicted person would be debarred
from ever holding Office or trust in
the United States
