Contrary to popular opinion, it was

In fact. many service men are of the
opinion that they are more careful in
seeing to it that the battery gets the
necessary occasional hydrometer test

The Silver Lining.

Direct tax reductions are not to be
confined to the rich or to big business.
The Ways and Means Committee has
determined to increase the exemption
of married men from $1,000 to $4,000
if they have an income of $1,000 or
less, and to grant further exemptions
of S400 for each dependent and minor
child instead of 5000 as at present.
Those provisions will make direct cuts
in the assessments of hundreds of
thousands of taxpayers in their next
returns, for the new exemptions will
be retroactive to January /, 1921. Fur
thermore, every consumer in the land
will be indirectly benefited by the re-
peal of the excess profits taxes and
the higher rates of surtaxes. Indus
try will resume, Z better labor condi-
tions will follow, and lower prices will
be enjoyed by all.

Wheat Freight Cut.

The Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion has granted the request of the
railroads for a reduction of freight
rates on wheat shipments from Chica-
go to New York for export. The cut
amounts to IA cents per 100 pounds.
1t is probable that other reductions
will be made on grain shipments from
Mississippi River points and other
cites farther west. The railroads re-
cognized the insistence of the farmers
that grain rates were too high, and
they also noted an increased demand
from abroad for American wheat. 1t
is believed that with the new schedules
commerce will be stimulated, the in
creased traffic on the roads will large
ly compensate for the loss Of revenue
due to the lower rates, and the farm
ers will receive a substantially higher
price for their grain.

An American Question.

The British Government still insists
that American coastwise ships should
not be granted free passage through
the Panama Canal. 1t is probable,
however, that the -Pauncefote
Treaty will be interpreted by the pres
ent administration according to the
American understanding of its pro
visions, particularly as the British
meaning attached to its language has
always been a highly strained one.
Senator Borah's bill for the restora-
tion of tolls exemption for American
coastwise ships is on the Senate Cal
endar ready for consideration, and it
is not likely to be sidetracked merely
because some other country would

Hughes at Head.

Washington, Aug. 23.-(Special cor
respondence )-Presiden Harding has
named Secretary Hughes as the head
of the American delegation at the
forthcoming ornaments conference. In
taking that course he adheres to the
precedent followed by executives in
the past, with the single exception of
Mr.. Wilson Mr.. Harding was careful
to appoint n cabinet in whom he had
implicit trust. They have all been
working in complete harmony for the
good of the country, and the President
knows he can depend upon his Secre-
tary of State to guard zealously the
interests of the United States in the
discussions. President Wi
son had the unfortunate habit of dis
trusting everybody around him, in
cluding the men whom he had selected
as his official advisers When the
emergency of the Versailles conference
arose he undertook the personal di-
rection of the American side of the
ease, with entire loss of his own pres
tige and serious damage to the influ-
ence of the United States as a world
power. No such result will follow the
conference The country
may rest assured that it will emerge
from those meetings in the stronger
position than ever in the family of

Babies are valuable possessions.
Therefore most Of Us were valuable

Better babies is now the watchword !;
better babies than we were. and there

The better babies campaign IL q
popular one these days, and that Is
why the Colorado state fair is paying

At this show the babies are ex-
amined and graded by high class ply
sicians and nurses. and the prizes are

Want a Ship?

Chairman Lasker of the Shipping
Board is quoted as saying that the
s313,0OO,O0O wooden ship fleet was as
great blunder as the aeroplane fl
asco. and that as soon as possible the
shipping board will sell the wooden
ships, give them away or sink them.
Since it appears not to be profitable
to operate them, it is evidently the
wisest business policy to get them off
the governments hands as soon as
practicable, for the cost of caretaking
is large. If there is anyone who thinks
he can make use of \ small wooden
ship, now is his opportunity to get
one cheap.
