cry Of one who has suffered much
and who has sorrowed much, and
finds himself now at last at the
end of his journey
But on the lips of Jesus there is
nothing of regret In this sentence.
nor is there anything OF bitterness.
1t is rather, I take 1t. a shout OF
triumph. He is saying again to

He had left nothing undone that Il

He added that this "will be the great
issue for the next quarter of a CEN
tury"
"The rich are dissatisfied with their
income and profits tax" he said.
"The profiteers and war contractors
are not willing to pay for the war out
of the millions they were able to
amass out of it; they are no more
willing to give up one penny from
their ill-gotten gains than if they had
won them by honest and legitimate
means. The fact that they overcharg-
ed the people for the necessaries of
life in the time of our nations peril
is no reason in their eyes why this
burden of paying for the war should
be placed on their shoulders. Profit,
eers, war contractors, big business
and big finance, all the classes of
wealth and privilege, will battle with
all their resources to place the bur-
den of paying for this war on the
backs of the poor, of the multitudes
who toll, of the plain people of this
country. That is to be the great is
sue for the next quarter of cen
tury."
The speaker called attention to a
prediction he made when the Cum
Minis -Esch bill was passed-that in
creases in rates would be based upon
the so-called "book value" of the rail
roads, with all the stealing and wa
tered stock of crooked promoters
from the very beginning of the rail
road business"
"My prediction proved true" said
the lawmaker. "The railroads were
permitted to increase their rates upon
the basis of the book value of SIS, 8,900,-
100000. Upon that fraudulent valu-
alton they were permitted to earn
the per cent return.
"Yet today you can go upon the
stock exchanges of the United States
and buy every dollar of stock, of
bonds and other securities of all the
railroads of the United States for
less than 100000. Accepting
the market value of their stocks,
bonds and securities as the true value
of the railroads, they were given in
creases in rates so as to raise their
net earnings to IA per cent. Think
of it.! No wonder business is strangl-
ed. No wonder the people are crying
out against excessive railroad
charges"

KNOW YOUR CITY

The Birmingham (Ala) Junior
Chamber of Commerce is doing a great
deal to aid scouting by a contest
known as II Know Birmingham.P One
hundred questions have been suggested
by the different civic organizations
covering the historical, geographic,
population, climatic, industrial, trans
portation, public utility, municipal,
educational, financial. real estate and
general phases of the city. The scouts
who successfully pass one Of the ex-
aminadons which are held each quar-
ter receives bronze bar, bearing the
words II Know Birmingham" And
as soon as the scout earns this bar,
his record In civic service Is then kept
by his scoutmaster and when he has
rendered 100 hours of such service,
small bronze civic service medal Is
suspended by chains from this bar;
then when his record, as certified by
the scoutmaster, shows he has rem
dered 500 hours of civic service, q
silver medal is substituted for the
bronze; and then when his total
reaches 1000 hours, he will receive
gold medal In place OF the silver.
This contest Is stimulating much In
terest, not only among the scouts but
among the citizens as well. In addi
ton to this award, the 10 boys who
pass the highest grades during the year
are taken on a truck trip over some
of the old southern battlefelds and
points of interest along the way. The
16 boys who take this trip will meet

leave, and hold meet along the lines

THE HIGHEST WATERFALL

@. Western Newspaper Union.

Y \ THE great hollows of that mighty
pile OF granite known as the Sierra
Nevada mountains in California there
are many wildly beautiful valleys. In
the very heart of this mountain world
Is spot of unusual loveliness known
as Yosemite valley-a seven-mile-long
chasm In an LOO square mile master
piece of scenery.
Flowing gracefully over the rugged
sky line of these bold, towering, al
most perpendicular walls are number
of cataracts which readily take first
place of all their kind on earth
Greeting the sightseer from dizzy
heights these columns of water tumble
headlong down the sides of the can
yon to join the foaming river below.
OF the eight spectacular falls, by
far the tallest Is the Yosemite. For
merly this monster cataract un-
doubtedly leaped In a single great
plunge Now. this fall, which normally
is 30 feet wide at the top, drops 1,480
feet In one sheer spill, followed by
cascades for about 600 feet and then
makes a final Jump of about 400 feet
total distance of approximately half
q mile.
The great Staubbach In Switzerland
is 1000 feet high; there Is a fall In
New Zealand said to be 1904 feet
high; the Grand In Labrador Is cred
tied with q drop of 1000 feet BY a
considerable margin, therefore, the
Yosemite dwarfs all other known
waterfalls.

held the strategic position to improve
conditions. A few months ago the
packers repudiated this agreement,
and the government, instead of con-
demning the packers, favored settle
ment that abrogates the agreement
the coming fall. The employees accept
ed and have been perfecting their
lines since that time
The packers will undoubtedly at
tempt wage cutting when the agree
ment expires, and when Federal
Judge Alschuler, acting as arbitrator,
is automaticlly removed from their
path. Then the packers hope to have
their personally owned union" in full
swing. The workers are alert to this
situation.
The packers opposition to Judge
Alschuler was increased last week
when that jurist rejected the proposal
to cut wages 5 cents an hour.
