dead Men Tell no Tales by E. w.
Hornung and illustrated by Harvey T.
Dunn. Published by Grossett & Dun
lap, New York. The author has writ
ten a thrilling tale of the greed for
gold and piracy and murder on the
high seas. with the saving grace of
deep love for good girl by one of
the plotters. The book has action
enough to cause it to be filmed recent
ly by Tom ferris. Dead men tell no
tales and that theme runs through
out the story. until you are stated with
excitement.
THE Story of the American Red
Cross in Italy" by Charles NJ. Bake
well. Published by The Macmillan Co..
New York. Profusely illustrated with
pictures from photographs and maps.
1t tells the real inside story OF the hard
ships and answering devotion to duty
of the American Red Cross workers in
Italy in those days when work was
needed and assistance came none too
soon to those sufferers. Relief centers,
work houses, ''asili' for children, trav-
cling canteens and large hospitals were
established. to say nothing of building
entire cities for the refugees from the
Piave and from Venice. 1t is plainly
and simply written but is full of thrills.

The House That Tax Builds.
New York Harald0


Taxes, in their direct application,
piled wherever they are levied on in
dustry and business. The original
producer, say the manufacturer.
promptly puts the amount Of the tax
with something to spare into his SELL
ing price mad passes it along to the
jobber.
The jobber. getting his goods from
the manufacturer. pays the manu-
facturer's tax, which has been passed
along to him, but he puts it into his
selling price. He also puts into his
selling price his own tax which he
himself pays directly into the Treas
ury.
The wholesaler, getting his goods
from the jobber. pays both the manu-
facturer's and the jobber's taxes,
which have been passed along to him,
but he puts them into his selling
price. He also puts into his selling
price his own tax which he himself
directly pays into the Treasury.
The retailer. getting his goods from
the wholesaler. pays the manufacture
er's tax. the jobber's tax and the
wholesalers tax. which have been
passed along to him, but he puts them
all into his selling price. He also
puts into his selling price the tax
which he himself pays directly into
the Treasury.
Then all these taxes which have
been rolling up like a SNOWFALL come
down upon the ultimate consumer
getting from the retailer his goods
tied up with the magnified and multi
piled taxes all in one bundle. He
can't pass them along to anybody
else. The passing is at the end of its
run. He can't dodge them as long as
he eats food, wears clothes and pays
rent.

Mr.. Roots Position.
(BOStOn Herald)


1t is easy to see in the report that
the new President will not name
Efihu Root as secretary Of state. the
basis of possible party division. A
cable message which Mr.. Root sent
to Mr.. Harding in the latter part
OF August has just come out, in
which the former secretary of state
declared it very unwise 20 declare
the league dead" or consider begin
ming agcin by abandoning the YER
sailles treaty. Mr.. Root continued:
In my opinion a new deal from the
beginning by abandoning the YER
sailles treaty is impossible. To at
tempt it would bring chaos and an
entire loss of the results of the war
and general disaster involving the
United States. The only possible
course is to keep the treaty, modify
ing it to meet the requirements of
the Senate reservations and the Chi
cago platform and probably in some
other respects.
A separate declaration Of peace
was justified only by President VIII
sons refusal to act. After March 4
that will 10 longer be justifiable
consent to a modification, which I
do not anticipate.
This dispatch accords with Mr..
Roots well known views. He told
the Senate committee that the league
project, carried in the Versailles
treaty. contained much which ought
not to be lost to the world. He has
been, and remains, a loyal Republic
can, He refused to come out for
the Wilson league, at the time when
Taft and Lowell were doing SO. thus
retaining his standing as a party
man. He has also severely criticised
the Wilson league, furnishing some
OF the best material of the campaign
against that instrument in its un-
amended FORM
If Mr.. Harding shares the Root
view it will be very simple mat
ter to name him as secretary of state,
and then to trust to his leadership in
making way out Of the tangle.

Respect the Flags.

People who are leading or particle
pating in riots against the hanging in
Armistice week celebrations of the
flag of Great Britain, or of-any other
country associated with the United
States in the great war, must have
learned very little of the spirit of the
occasion. If the British or the French
or the Italian flag was good enough
for Americans to fight beside during
the years of battle for civilization, it
is good enough to display alongside
of the Stars and Stripes in this week
of sacred memories. Any assault
upon one of these banners. such as
the attack made at the Capitol
Theatre in New York on Sunday, is
by implication an assault on the
American flag itself.
If there are any who object to the
display of the flags in the fraternal
observances of the week, they should
with a firm voice, and with as firm a
hand if necessary. be reminded that
they are now in the United States of
America, and that the resolution, as
we'll as the grace and fellowship, of
the great combat still survives in
American breasts.
