NATIONAL CIVIC
(Continued from First Page.)

The stinging rebuke sent by Samuel Gompers and Matthew WoH to these gentlemen contained the following paragraph:
 The American Federation of Labor IS not a revolutionary body and has never had any affiliation with any revo- lutionary body which would require it to give serious consideration to revo1u- tionary proposals of any kind. It has never considered or compromised with any revolutionary movement to upset our institutions by violence. The appeal of the International Federation of Trade Unions and of the Council of Action are appeals to revolutionary vio- lence. The International Federation of Trades Unions declares very clearly within its own ranks find the power to preserve the world from terror and an archy The world Is not threatened with terror and anarchy unless 1t be from the Soviets, for the aid of which these manifestos are issued. If the world IS to be preserved from this or any other danger 1t must be by the action of democratic governments chosen by the people,"
 It will be the purpose, at the Civic FederatlOns meeting, to make so clear the difference between the same patriotic American labor movement and the dis loyal Socialist and Bolshevist labor movements of Europe, that the so- called Liberal groups in the United States cannot longer bec1oud the situa- tion. By applauding the British Labor party the International Federation of Trade Unions and the otehr Socialist labor organizations of Europe for their recent refusal to accept the Lenin and Trotzky ultimatum, it is sought to make it appear that there is a wide difference between them and the Bolshevists, whereas the only difference is that be- tween "Tweedledee and Tweedledum." One is fully as revolutionary as the other.
 Just now we are having plethora of schemes coming i'll from Europe all more or less fantastic and academic but nevertheless in some cases urged with great zeal by certain men even in busi- ness circles. These include the Ger man system" which has been criticised as being "a cross between Gui1dism and Sovietism with a strain or two of Whitleyism," but regarding which an American manufacturer, who was chairman of an industrial relations committee of one of the national parties in the recent campaign, recently de clared: It is perhaps as near the final step in the progress toward a solution of the industrial problem as we can now

WOMAN LAWYER PROPOSES A TAX
 ON 'OLD MAIDS
Doesn t Believe Bachelors Alone Should Be Made
 Goats.

New York, Jan. 2O.-The proposed tax on bachelors isn't enough, accord ing to Miss Lucille Pugh, lawyer-it should be extended to include "o1d maids"
 There it is again; the old double standard,' Miss Pugh declared in com menting upon the suggestion of Mrs. Clara Sears Taylor of Washington that the 10OOOOOO bachelors in the country should be subject to a graduated tax of $l to S5 year, yielding an income of $20OOO,000.
 Il thought we were getting away from that. Why should we women be discriminated for or against in the mat ter of taxation any more than in voting Personally, 1 am certain 1 would be willing to pay $1 or $5 or $100O or any amount year to insure my continued freedom
 Miss Pugh was just bit inclined to feel, however. that if bachelors and "old maids" were taxed the former would get somewhat the best of it. as they would be free to change their estates to that of married men, while the latter would still be handicapped by the social precedent which decrees hat man shall do the proposing.
 Such a tax, however, might have the effect of driving some men into marriage, which would make better citizens of them," she said. Looking at 1t from all sides, the average bachelor isr't of much use in the scheme of things, economically or oth- erwise, and only socially in the more restricted meaning of the word.
