WOULD INCREASE
/ SCHOOL SUNLIGHT
Request Made for Removal of
Trees for Benefit of
Hamilton Pupils.

Steps have been taken by school au-
thorities, it was learned today, to in
crease sunlight in the Hamilton School
for tubercular children by asking the
Commissioners to remove some of the
trees surrounding the building.
This school has been the subject of
much discussion as to whether its con-
dition is such as to warrant it's use by
children who show symptoms of tuber-
culoSis.
requisition asking for the removal
of the trees has been sent to the Dis
trict building. The request, it is un-
derstood. will be forwarded to the En-
sineer Commissioner from the munich
pal architects office with a suggestion
that Clifford Lanham, superintendent
of trees and parkings. ascertain to what
extent trees should be removed and
trimmed to increase light in the build
ing.
The school is located near Bladens-
burg road at a point beyond Mount
Olivet cemetery. Citizens associations
and other civic organiza tions have re-
Gently engaged in lively debates over
the continued use of the building, the
objection having been raised that the
location is undesirable.

Reverses

So live that when reverses
come you have in brine a decent
sum. There is no more absurd
mistake than that of blowing all
we make. Reverses come to
every door, in single file, in
groups of four: they may be
long upon the way, but they will
reach your shack some day; you
may fall i'll of mumps or gout,
the job you hold may hzzle out;
your cherished pep may disap-
pear, your aunt may come to
spend a year. And when the
day of sorrow dawns. and you
are numbered with the pawns
with which Misfortune idly
plays, how much cold money can
you raise? Are your resources
merely dreams of money thrown
away in streams? Twas but a
little while ago that every gent
had lots of dough; the worker
drew princely hire, and l wore
out a costly Tyre beseeching him
to save the mon while it was
coming by the ton: Some wise
boys listened to my rede and
salted down their chicken feed
but nine gay fellows out of ten
just threw away the IRON men
and when the boom went up in
smoke the cold gray morning
found them broke, To. blow the
useful money in-it is oursgreat
besetting sin, and so the wolves
of famine yell where peace and
comfort ought to dwell.

LAUDS WAR RISK BUREAU.
Legion Commander Drain Speaks
at Meeting of Post.

A defense of the war risk bureau was
made Wednesday night by James A.
Drain, department commander of the
american Legion. who stated at the
meeting of Sergeant Jasper Post, No. 13.
that for the past six months the bureau
was functioning better than any depart
ment of the government.
Most of the criticism aimed at the
bureau is due to the methods of some
congressman in using their influence in
some appeals he said. Instead of
letting a case take sits proper course
they step in and attempt to get speedy
action. with the result that there is
delay
Comparison of after-war conditions
in civil war times and those of the late
war were made by Isaac R. Sherwood
former representative from Ohio and
civil war veteran, who was a guest of
the post last night. Prediction was
made by Representative Albert john
son of Washington that Congress would
pass bill restricting immigration with
in thirty days after it convenes.
The post went on record as favorng
all the former service mems legislation
in Congress. Norman Z. Martindale,
commander. presided.

THE AvEEFED STRIKE

Announcement to the effect that there Eiu be no strike by the six organiza- ltions of railroad men in accord with thsn preyious vote was learned through out the country with keen satisfaction. Al saorts on the part Of the govern me1t have been directed to such an end for the purpose of preventing the unde- sIrabis conditions that would go with a strike and the thanksgiving of trans portsti0n, however peacefully it might be conducted.
 The tOne of dehanee in the Statements Of brotherhood leaders was used for all that lt vas worth but it melted before the facts that existed and there could not fail to be a strong influence wielded by the fact that public opinion through cut the country was directly against the course the railroad men were threaten Ing 10 take. l. only required a bit of reflection upon the decision reached by three quarters of the employees of rail roads. who refused to join in the stIske and who are not as well paid as thosa who threatened 10 strike, that there was little chance Of the success of any such venture

A BOON TO ROAD WORK.

According to the department of agri- culture there has been distributed among the various states by the bureau of pub lie roads of that department total of 32.577 motor vehicles from the surplus vehicles turned over by the war depart 'ment. All but about seventh of these were auto trucks, the distribution vary ing from the 50 that were turned over to Rhode Island to the 1887 that went to Texas. No state received less than one hundred except Rhode Island and Delaware while Texas, New York and Illinois were the only ones to receive over 1000 each. The quota received by Connecticut was 14s.
 Intended for use in France as part of the war materials these vehicles have been distributed among the various stateS by federal legislature under the reqN'r ment that they should be used only for road building purposes and are less than a twentieth of the total nun Der of vehicles so far allotted to the states.
 How valuable service such equipment has been to the respective states in connection with the maintenance Of good roaSas and the building of others can be readily appreciated. It has pu; to useJ a lot of material for which the government had no use for which fl would have been obliged to make a large sacrifice if 1t had been disposed oG and which would only have deterio- rated and gone to waste had an attempt lReen made to. keep it for future emer. sEeneies.
 Federal highway appropriations have ionE been urged and while the contri- button of motor vehicles doesn't provide the new roa,ls 1t certainly furnishes ont (of the important items in connection i with the development of better systems tof highways throughout the country l The employment of the war material 1T
 such manner has been a great boos

THE EXCESS PROFITS TAX.

1T the action taken in the senate ca fbe used as basis for judgment there are good reasons for believing that the end of the excess profits tax has been decided upon, That. is what has been demanded and that Is what is going to be accomplished if the majority in the sen- ate has it's way.
 The excess profits tax was one that was established at a time when there were excessive profits being made, at a time when big money was pouring into certain establishments that were en- gagged in war work of one kind Or an- other. It was believed that what was bein ggained at that time under emer- >gency conditions ought to be taxed for the benefit of the entire country that the big expenditures could be the better met Those times are over and today excess profits are decidedly few compared to what they were at one time.
 Nevertheless just as long as that tax remains it stands as an obstacle to bus mess expansion and furnishes one of the reasons for keeping down enterprises aHdj keeping activities from getting back toSnormal
 The tax will be maintained through .fhis year but will case with the coming of January although efforts were made to have it continued until next July without success. It is in this particula- that loud and persistent demands have been made for tax revision and 1t is through such action as is contemplated that relief will be furnished.
 What will be lost fin the way of reve- [ nue from such a tax will have to be made up in some other way but there is this much consolation that there isn't a time when the tax could be removed with less loss of revenue than right al the present time when many an indus try and business house as well as indi, vidual have considered 1t fortunate tc make ends meet without getting into the excess profits class. Tn the revis ion of the taxes it is time to get away from the war time basis. Taxes canno be dispensed with but they can be lev jed with less detrimental results.

RLANToE's CENsURE.

Tf tLsre are any others who take tho same view that Congressman Blantou d,d and are inclined 10 print matter of such a character as he did in the Con Eressional Record they must realize from what has been done in his case just what they can anticipate. Congress man Blanton based the justification for h-s action upon the fact that he con- -cisutiouSly believed it to be the proper enuss to follow to bring to light condi- tiqns which he had found existed and wAich he did not believe should be al- loved to continue.
 That he has succeeded in drawing at tention to those conditions is plainly evident but in a manner which reflects upon ais judgment Under the circzIrn stances there was no other course the house coulG have followed and the cen Eure administered narrowly escaped nbe- ing expulsion.
 Blanton. it would appear from hiskree- ord in the house, has had a peculiary way Of doing what ae considered his duty, His irritating methods have not served to increase his popularity. and when he put a must order on the inclusion of the --f~~--+-A PA+AANSA eeAs~A lne FlSNI 70 extend his remarks in ther Congress sional Record there can be no surprise that the house felt that it, has been grossly taken advantage Of.
 It is 10 be realized that the vile and obscene language is not that used by Bisnton. It appears in an affidavit Shich he included in his remarks re, Farding conditions and a conversation iu the public printing ofice. whethe, he believed that wasfthe only way ir which he could get the matter before congress he certainly found that it wa, a way to cause regrets. It was a cas-. which the house could not overlook. Hat il done so it could be easily imagined what the practice might Head to. Promp and decisive action was necessary apt that taken should have beneficial eff fsct
 The question now is as to what. astioy will be taken regarding those conditioni which made it possible for Blanton fl come into possession of any such affi davit. Bianton's censure doesn't 6, course punish the one who was actua,i, responsible for the language which tn, Tsxan ordered printed.

goods which are held by the war de- pssrtment cannot possibly be used by the army and 1t is realized how little would be obtained from them if put on the markte to say nothing of the effect that would accrue to industry. by such ac- tion. it is evident that congress has good reason to carefully consider the appeal and make the best possible use of the goods under it's contro Helping the starving Russians doesn't necessarily mean aiding the bolsheviki Russians and bolsheviki are not necessarily syn onymous.
