ITALY AWAKENING
BIG WAR PROFITS ARE BEING
CONFISCATED
The Nations Credit Advanced Rapidly
Since This Law Was Adopted and
Money Value Has More Than
Doubled in Four Months

New York-The New York World
prints this editorial, which will send
cold chills down the spine of American
proftee, who are worried lest labor
unions secure the right to bargain
collectively, and whether courts may
continue the use of the illegal labor
injunction:
italian lire are worth today near
ly double what they were worth four
months ago, having risen more rapid
ly than the money of any other naticn
in Europe. The reason for this
phenomenal stride in the direction Of
a return to prosperity in a country
that is among the poorest, which has
few natural resources, few articles
to export, is to be found in the courage
with which it's statesmen have faced
the financial situation. In the inter-
view which Premier Giolitti gave to
the Associated Press he pointed out
that if the present taxes were dis
tributed throughout the entire popu-
lation every man, woman and child
in Italy would be paying $50 year
to the government.
"There is, however, another tax to
which Giolitti made no reference, be-
cause it is as yet uncollected, and one
that illustrates better than any other
the daring of the government. United
States Commercial Attache H. G. Nc
Lean writes from Rome to the de-
partment of commerce in Washing
ton that the decree confscating all
war profits went into effect on April 2.
"No other nation has venturel to
confscate all war profits. But Pre-
mier Giolitti, faced with the problem
of an enormous deficit, announced
that those who had profted by the
war must pay for the war. The new
law provides that before assessing
the war profits the following deduc-
tions are to be made: Ordinary in
come, based on the average for 1913
and 1914, but in no case less than
8 per cent of the capital invested;
all taxes and super-taxes paid on
profits and all other payments to
state, provincial and municipal au-
thorities; expenses incurred in in
cooperating; income tax paid on in
terest due to stock and bondholders
and on salaries of employees; amounts
due on social insurance set aside for
welfare work among employees or
paid out of net income for charitable
work, besides a general exemption of
10000 lire. A single return is to be
made for the period August l, 1914,
to June 80, 1920, and payment is to
be made in bi-monthly installments.
"What sum will be realized from
this extraordinary tax it is, Of course,
impossible to guess, but legislation
of this type explains much of Giolittl's
popularity, as well as the rapid rise
in the value of Italian money"

 LONDON. June 3--Recent solar eruptions, which caused briliianE auroras and disorganized cable and telegraph service throughout the world, may result in the earth receiv- ing an increased quota of sunshine during the remainder of the year. says Sir Oliver Lodge. the noted sci enlist. who declares it is probable that the monsoon will be strengthened and that in consequence the Indian harvest will be improved. He even ventures the opinion that the electri- fled particles thrown by the sun dur ing the disturbance. may assist in the development of vegetation and reduce the amount of dust held suspended in the atmosphere.
 Sir Oliver says the magnetic dis ,turbances that attended the solar eruption were ~due to a torrent of electrified particles which constituted a gigantic electric current This opinion also is held by Camille Flam- marion, the veteran French astrono- mer, who has expressed surprise at a storm of such unusual violence occur ring at this time M.
