ITALIAN GOVERNMENT TO
TAKE ALL WAR PROFITS


The following from the editorial
columns of the New York World is a
digest of what is filtering out from
Italy through the daily press. This
paper thinks it is worthy of considera-
ton by American lawmakers who
seem to be worse off than at sea
without chart or compass. The Sen
tinel suggested in the year 1917,
that the United States government
adopt some such method. 1t does
not seem to be unfair to demand of
those who made huge profits as a
result of war conditions hat they be
the heaviest contributors towards
carrying the war-burdens.
Italian lire are worth today nearly
double what they were worth four
months ago, having risen more rapid
~ than the money of any other nation
in Europe. The reason for this phe-
nominal 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 its 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 distrib-
uted throughout the entire population
every man, woman and child in Italy
would be paying $50 a year to the
Government.
There is, however, another tax to
which GlOlItti made no reference, be-
cause 1t is as yet uncOllected, and
one that illustrates better than any
other the daring of the Government.
United States Commercial Attache H.
{. MacLean writes from Rome to the
Department of Commerce in Wash
mgtOn that the decree confscating
all war profits went into effect on
April 2.
mo other nation has ventured to
conhscate all war profits. But Pre-
mler 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 deductions
are to be made: Ordinary income,
based on the average for 1913 and
pot III uo vase less lIld1 . per
cent. of the capital invested; all tax
es and super-taXes paid on profits and
all other payments to state, provin-
cial and municipal authorizes; ex-
penses incurred in incorporating; in
come tax paid on interest due to
stock and bond holders and on sala-
rles 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 20
900 lire. A single return is to be
made for the period Aug. /, 1914,
TO June 80, 1920, and payment is to
be made in twelve bi-monthly install
ments.
What sum will be realized from
this extraordinary tax it is, of course,
impossible to guess, but legislation of
this type explains much of Giolitti's
popularity, as we'll as the rapid rise
in the value Of Italian money!"

KEEP THEM AT HOME.

The cityward movement from the
farms of the United States has been
brought to a check by the news that
thousands are being turned away
from our factories and mills. Now
IS a good time to do something that
viii nail the interest of your boys
and girls to the farm and when
times" pick up and another farm
to-city movement starts, they will
pay no heed to the hollow call.
Buy a pig for your boy or girl. Get
something that will bring them a lit
tie money of their own. Show them
how and why there is profit in atten-
ton paid TO live stock and especial
~ to pigs. There is no animal that
responds to good are and feed as
does a young porker or o-o that de-
terlorates as rapidly when neglected.
Pig Club boys and girls are paying
their way through school by feeding
pigs during vacation and out of
school hours. Teach Them self re-
lance and the art of using their
spare time. The care and feeding
of livestock tends to mold character
OF the right kind. Keep the young
interested in good livestock.

WALTER BIcKERSTAFF
SUICIDES IN MEMPHIS

Mr.. Walter Bickerstaf committed
suicide in Memphis Sunday and his
remains were brought to Grenada and
carried east and buried near the
home of his father, Wednesday.
The unfortunate man was a barber
in Memphis, but had been out of en-
ployment for some days and was in
a. disheartened condition. 1t seems
that he made a stroke at his throat
with a razor, when he went to the
window of the fourth story Of the
building where he was rooming and
either fell out or threw himself out
or the pavement below which resulted
in almost instant death. He was
about 40 years old and when in the
logging business near Grenada, was
regarded as thoroughly dependable
and as a clever, obliging man.

A MACHINE THAT GRABS
THE BOIL WEEVIL

1t will De remembered that when
the boil weevil was bad about five
or six years ago that the Frady Boil
Weevil Catcher was greatly in de-
mand. The pest is here again. The
Lockett Lumber Co. has an ad in this
issue announcing that it has the ma
terial on hand and is prepared to
furnish these machines ON short
notice. They used to sell for $1,000.
The Lockett Lumber Co. proposes to
sell them by the single machine at
$500 and IN larger quantities at
prices even lower than that. The
matter IS worthy Of every farmers
attention.

is it to Make God a LIAR" Law and
Gospel.
Certainly no one can give God a
greater insult than TO make Him a
liar. Who are guilty? 1t is worth
our while TO make sure we are not.
What has God said concerning His
Son? Do we believe His record?
What is the Law? What is the
Gospel? What is the purpose of each!
There is great peace in knowing the
difference. Gods word makes az
plain.
A cordial invitation to every one.

MRS. FRANK M. WHIT
TEN DIED JUNE 18TH.

A death occurred in the old Center
Point community. just in the edge of
Tallahatchie county, June 10th, which
leaves a husband in sorrow and sew
eral children without a mother. This
good woman, Mrs. Frank NJ. Written,
years ago gave her heart to God and
had tried to so live that she would
meet the approval of her Maker day
by day. She was a siSter-ln-law of
Mrs. W. H. Williams of Grenada and
frequently visited in her home where
she endeared herself to all who got
to know her. She was buried in the
Smith burying ground, Rev. Joel d.
Rice conducting the funeral services.
The Sentinel extends sympathy to the
bereft.

South american Crisis
Continues, Says Banker

The end of the commercial }crisis
IN South America is not yet in
sight, in the opinion of Louis H.
Kick, general manager of the Lon
don headquarters of the Anglo
South American Bank, who has just
reached New York after an eleven
month tour of Latin America.
THE Latin-American countries"
said Mr.. Kick, "are still experience
ing great difficulty in financing their
imports. and owing to the great fall
ing off in import duties, which form
large proportion of the national
budgets, many of the governments
are hard put to balance their
budgets and meet their heavily in
creasing expenditures.
Before any marked improvement
can be expected drastic policy of
economy both on the part of the
governments and individuals will
have to be practiced, especially until
the economic and political situation
in Europe is improved"
In the universal stagnation of
commerce, following the break in
prices, added Mr. Kick, South Amer
lea appears to have suffered more
keenly than Europe or the United
States
