THIS BARBER SILENT ONE HoURl
But He Was Tied, Gagged, and Bound
 in a Sheet by Robbers.

Chicago, July 21.-From time imnie- morial it has been an undisputed tru- ism that nothing could prevent bar Der from talking, but the maxim re- ceived severe shock when FraAk Machione actually went one hour with out speaking a word.
 Machione operates barber shop in Lake Park avenue. Came two armed robbers, who forced their way thru the door and backed him against the wall.
 What do you do?" asked one of the robbers.
 I'm barber" Machione responded.
 Well, in that case we'll have to tie and gag you. Never knew barber to keep still more than minute"
 So they roped and hog tied him, stuffed towel in his mouth and wrap ped him in sheet, which they bound with ropes.
 Then the robbers went thru his shop and at, taking $500 in cash, two gold watches and other jewelry and valu- ables valued at several hundred dol- larS

people cannot starve or freeze. They have materials for building their homes at hand and there is food for the taking. They grow tobacco and make their own wine.
 America has given the people of the island schools and roads, which are as good as those found in ad- vanced communities in the United States. In other parts of the islands q group of politicians pretended to speak for the people in asking for in- dependence from the United States, but General Woods investigation here has developed that the people do not want it, despite resolutions and ora- tions to the contrary.
 An instances which happened in one small town is a good, example of the situation here. About two months ago, when the people first heard the mission was coming, they held a meet ing, and, after a debate, voted unani- mously against presenting an inde- pendence resolution.
 The people in the district had few complaints to present to the mission and these were almost always against some oppression or crime committed against the people by their own Fili- pino leaders. Their loyalty to Amer ica is apparent.

BIGGER FAMILIES
 MEAN TAX RELIEF Government Needs Will Remain High But Wider Distribution Would
 Lessen Individual Burden.

Washington, July 2f.--Here is the one solution of the tax question. No one may like it. But in the opinion of some of the eminents on the hill it is the only sure one:
 Americans must raise larger fam lilies. They must work harder. There are now approximately no million people in the United States who are called on to pay bill of to billion dollars annually in taxes. Looping off odd figures and dealing in round num- bers that means that the average American must pay $50 year to the support of his government for the next twenty-five years. Carter Glass, the Democratic financial authority of the Senate, says so. Reed Shoot, the Republican financial authority of the Senate, says so.
 "There isn't chance for tax re- duction for the next quarter of cen tury,7 both men say.
 But-and here is the superb beauty of the thought which pTefaces this ar ticle--if we can boost the population of the United States to 200 million and do not increase our expenditures, we can cut the per capita annual pay ment of taxes to S25. It is lovely idea. It is even finer when one exam ines into it more closely, for by the time the 200 million point has been reached we will have been so thoroly acclimated to tax paying that we will no doubt have another war. Then the good old rate will skallyhoot sky ward again.
 "We have lost control of ourselves, say the two experts quoted, altho not in these identical words. "The people of the United States are demanding everything from the government and do not seem to take into account that they are the ones who ultimately must walk up to the captains office and pay for passage. We used to cry about billion dollar-a-year govern meHtt. NJow t is CT billion dol lar government. and it does not prom ise ever to be less"
 Shoot says he lies awake nights over it. Glass says he would lie awake if he had any actual responsibility for the tax ratemaking. But he hasn't, he says About all he will have to do, in common with other Americans is to pay the tax bill when presented.
