SALARY INCOME
TAX NO WORRY TO
SALVATION ARMY

Atlanta. Ca, April 21. Every
member Of the Salvation Army, from
the highest ranking officer to the
organization, has at last found some.
thing which they do not have to wor-
~ about.
It the salary income tax.
According to internal revenue col
lectors rot member of the Saliva
ticn Amy in the United States re-
ceived less than $1,000 salary in
1919.
Thus is answered the question oc-
casionally asked in some quarters
What percentage of the money given
the Salvation Army for charitable
purposes goes into high salaries foe
its officers,
The report of the officials in charge
of income tax returns shows thai
none of it goes into high salaries
and that only small per cent OF il
goes into the extremely low salaries
which they receive.
IF you wish to get rich, don't join

ing expenses and when they become

PRESIDENT FROST
COMES OUT FOR LEAGUE
Noted Educator Tells Why He
Changes-For Protection and
Humanity

DIR. William G. Frost and Mrs. Will
liam G. Frost, of Berea CDR. Frost
having been president of Berea Col
lege for 20 years. gave the following
statement in an interview at their
home on October IS:
"We SHAH vote in an unusual way.
Nationally and morally we are up
holders of the Republican party. We
well know the moral heroism it took
for our grandfathers to leave the
Wing party two generations ago and
help form the Republican party. We
are proud of things the Republicans
have done in the past. AT the Same
time we do not think it right for
Christian people to belong" to any
party. We do not join it as we join
the church, or as we get married fol
better or worse" We cannot vote for
a party because of the good people
that are in it, or because of anything
that it has done in the past. A po-
iltlcal party is only an instrument;
the deciding question is. What does
it promise in the future?
Now, a new and great thing has
come up, the League of Nations This
and prayed for through all the Chris
ian centuries. Tennyson spoke ike
prophet of God of the times when
s'the war drums throb no longer and
he battle flags are furled in the par
lament of war, the federation Of the
world" Such a thing is now actually
brought to pass. The nations were ct
a high pitch of world patriotism at
he time. of victory over Germany,
md felt the awfulness, the heart
breaking and the crushing financial
oss of armed conflicts. 4 League of
Nations has actually been started.
To our surprise and grief the con-
rolling men of our dear old Republi-
an party are opposed to this, and
nave kept our country from joining
he league. Some of them were 5eal-

suited as they should have been in

VIII America Keep Faith?

TO every voter who goes to the
polls on next Tuesday there must
come the question, "Shall we keep
faith with our dead ?" Seventy thou
sand American soldiers lie dead in
France, other tens of thousands are
dead somewhere because of the great
war. They died to make war impossi-
bic. Their certificate of victory over
Germany and Austria is the Paris
peace treaty, including the covenant
of the League of Nations. At the
polls on Tuesday the voters of Amer
lea will decide whether or not we
shall accept that treaty and league
or reject it, whether we shall adopt
it or scrap it. All the great nations
with which we were associated dur
ing the war have accepted it-Amer-
lea alone stands off, and has stood off
for two years, like Achilles sulking
in his tent, but at last we have come
to the Solemn referendum" and on
Tuesday shall be face to face with
the necessity of deciding whether we
shall desert our allies, repudiate our
dead, throw away the idealisrn of
war, destroy our soldier dead's GER
tificate of victory or on the other

the planning of a league, and some of
them are unwilling to have the United
States undertake the risk of helping
to protect the weak nations of South
America through what is called the
Monroe Doctrine. This Monroe Doc
trlne rests upon no acts of congress,
but upon the statement of President
Monroe that we would protect all the
American states, statement which
has been backed, up by later presi-
dents, both Democrats like Cleveland
and Republicans like Roosevelt.
Now, it is a great step to extend
the Monroe Doctrine to cover the
whole world { this is Taft's descrip-
ton of the League of Nations), but
we have the other great powers, Eng
land. France and others to help US,
and gives q great prospect of pre-
venting all future wars.
Of course, like every treaty, it in
wolves some obligations on our part
but these are not terrifying. We
must help pay the expenses of the
league, and if it ever has to estab-
lish an international police that will

and prevent wars. There is an in
ternational court to determine JUS
tice between nations. But we may be
sure the league will never do any
thing harmful to our country, because
the representative Of the United
States in the supreme council of the
league has. a veto power on all its
action (tflis was one feature proposed
by Taft.)
The much attacked Article Ten,
the "most dangerous feature of the
league" simply says that the mem
bers Of the league stand by one an
other in protecting each member
from invasion. That means that
question of boundaries are to be set
tied by reason and adjudication, and
not by fighting.
Now, IL was a great disappoint-
)uent to have the boss of our dear old
Republican party, Senator Lodge,
prevent our joining the league, to
have the United States the only ma
ton to propose reservation that
took all the power for good out Of it.
Then came the Republican plat
form that Lodge dictated, and the
nomination Of Harding, who is only
Lodge with weaker head, and Hard

whatever except that he will look in

WOULDN'T TELL POLICE;

Monday night the police picked up
a negro who had a bad disposition

would not talk to the police, even to
confide in them where he got the
booze. The co-eXtension act was re-
sorted to, which admits of case of
this character being turned over to
the federal authorities, and the fell
low who refused to tell it to the po-
lice will tell it to the grand jury, or
be remanded to Jail, where he is now
