THE COMING FOOD CRISIS

The evidence now seems Overwhelm-
ing that considerably less food will be
produced in North America this year
than last year. The south temperate
zone has just completed n crop season
and its two great surplus good-growing
countries. Argentina and Australia, re-
port disappointing haryests. In the
United States and Canada, the only
agricultural countries remaining in the
world upon which the human race de
ponds for large exportable surplus
teh spring conditions are unfayorablc
The planting season Is very late; the
railroad tie-ups and freight congestion
have seriously delayed the shipments Of
fertilizers to the farms Of the country ;
farm labor is mprecedentedly scarce
and costly and the tendency is wide
spread for the smaller farmers to cul-
tivate only such an acreage of land as
they can care for without hired help.
No contribution to the worlds eX'
portable food supply can be expected
this year, or perhaps next year, from
central and eastern Europe. Rumania
and Hungary before the great vac
could be depended upon for wheat as
the middle and western European coiln-
tries could be depended upon for beet
sugar. but Rumania and Hungary must
be dismissed for the present from all
calculations. Russia's great wheat belt
IS in the Ukraine, but the new Polish
war of conquest as far south as Odessa
Is not the right sort Of spring planting

BONUS WOULD BOOST TAXES
lBy Davld Lawrence)

Washington, ID. C.-Taxation is going
up-not down. The Republican party
in Congress has virtually decided that
more is to be gained by giving the SOL
diers Of the late war bonus than by
refusing to make further cuts In exist
ing taxes or distributing the burden
through the years Of the next genera
ton.
The ways and means committee OF
the House is In tangle. A majority
Or Republicans are opposed TO new
burdens of taxation, but even with
the help Of the Democrats their
strength is not sufficient to prevent
the passage of the bill In the House.
Only two barriers then remain-the
Senate and the President.
II the House bill were presented to
the White House today It would be
vetoed. II It were put up to the Sen
ate in the form in which 1t has been
drafted II would be radically changed,
but on the other hand there would
still remain additional taxes where
with to raise money for the soldiers
because Senate Republicans must stand
by House Republicans in doing some
thing before the next election that will
not ALLEVIATE the soldier vote.
Perhaps the Democrats would dc
likewise IL they were in control, for
the soldier vote has become like tht
labor vote and the prohibition vote
something too formidable for the av
erage Congressman to Withstand, es

pecially when demagogue can start
campaign In opposition to him in his
district on that ground alone.
The ways and means committee, both
Republicans and Democrats, had the
new tax bill before them ut their Fri
day session. IL had been agreed upon
by majority Of the Republicans the
night before, and the plan was to jam
1t through the committee in time to re-
port IL to the House during the day,
and thus have ii ready for the Republi-
can caucus Friday night.
The significant thing is that neither
the proponents nor opponents of the
soldier bonus differ IN their sentimental
feeling that something should be done
for the soldiers of the late war, some
thing tangible. But getting down to
the bottom of the whole business, one
finds even the enthusiasts for n soldier
bonus cognizant Of the strain which
the plan would put ON the already over
weighted credit system Of the country.
Those who favor the bill say the nation
can stand the extra tax, and they point
out that either sales tax on retail
sales above $1,000 n month or retro
active tax on war profits would hit only
"the big fellows"
But experience with the vicious cir
cles In the high cost Of living has shown

in the past year the larger concerns
merely tack the tax ON their costs OF
production and the ultimate consumer
pays the bill. So many members Of the
House who have studied taxation are
planning to go before their constituents
ON record OF opposition to any class
legislation whatever, whether IL be for
labor or soldiers or any other section
Of the community. Yet this number IL
in a minority.
The real truth Is that II the majority
OF the House believed the bill just pre-
scented to the ways and means COM
mittee had chance of being enacted
into law, they wouldn't rush 1t through
so hastily. But the general feeling Is
that the Senate will emasculate the
measure and iron IL out and that II il
Is still Objectionable the President
would probably veto 1t, thus making u
even more advantageous politically to
argue that the Republicans wanted to
help the soldiers and the Democrats
didn't.
II is to be noted that Of all the five
plans suggested whereby aid is to be
given to the soldiers, none Of the cash
payment features Is to 20 into effect
until next January. Thus II the senti-
ment Of the country in the next election
Is adverse, the measure can be repealed
without endangering the chances of
those Republicans who must depend on
the soldier vote at the next election.
Some of the features Of the bill do
not involve an outlay of much money
and are in the main favored 10y Demo
