Speed and Generosity.

THE Foreign Affairs Committee OF the House
i OF Representatives, in acting favoraby upon
the bill appropriating S2ooooooo for Russian relie
through the agency OF the American Relief Admin
istration, has shown humane appreciation of the
Russian famine situation. 1t is to be hoped that
the bill will pass the House and Senate and receive
the signature of the President with all possible
speed
Recent reports from the famine area in Russia
only to emphasize the sovereignty of Death
which prevails there. The Bolsheviki are no longer
rulers OF the Volga Valley That is Deaths king
dom.
The S2o,ooo,ooo called Tor in the bill favorably
acted upon by the committee should be sufficient
to provide the food needed to keep alive the mil
lions OF humans in Russia now beaten in the con-
test with death. But every day. they die This is
the reason for speed. Every days delay means
more dead
The American Relief Administration, in using
the funds it has available outside of the government
appropriation, has adopted plan calling for the
feeding until the next harvest OF maximum Of L.
100000 children. 1t proposes to feed those partcu-
lar children long enough to them. 1t could
feed a larger number for a shorter period, but it
would be useless to keep that larger number alive
for insufficient time, only have them all left
without food months before the time of harvest
Thus it is clear that speedy action by Congress will
mean the rapid extension OF the work OF the Ameri-
Relief Administration among the children and
the enlargement of the work to include starving
adults as well. For millions of starving Russians
speed in Congressional appropriation means life.
The American Congress is in touch and in har-
mony with the American people in regard to the
terrible Russian situation. The Of Congress
know that the heart of America deeply stirred by
the cruel grip of death in the stricken and unfor-
tunatc land. Congress will be generous. May it
be quick also.

A sound currency under wheat standard,

centage of wheat. A country, attempting such a
standard, would be genuine wheat basis as
long as people holding wheat ccrtihcates-bushel

government and actually get wheat for their notes.
While Europe, especially suffering Russia, is in
dire need Of food it may seem grotesque to talk
of establishing wheat currency" backed by great
elevators kept filled with wheat But it would be
easier for Russia and Central Europe, during the
next few years, to accumulate wheat than to &C
cumulate gold. If Russia should adopt modern
methods, it would not be long before she could
have Sound money" sound wheat money" But
how she hope to accumulate gold for many
years?
In time OF war, gold reserve has been proved
OF great value to belligerent in making its
money acceptable. and, as long as money is accept

operations. goes forward easily. But sound
wheat money based on satisfactory wheat re-
serve, would serve in the same way. And, further,
the wheat reserve, if needed, could be eaten. The
gold could be eaten. For this reason,
wheat reserve would not be inferior to gold
reserve in time of threatened famine. gold re-
serve could be used to buy wheat out OF the country
at famine time-if wheat could be obtained. No
transfer out OF the country would be necessary for

In Russia and Central Europe, the prevailing

nations which included the United States, Great

Financial "Normalcy."

In an address by w. p. G. Harding

Business has passed through the
primary stage. the acute period OF

not yet established a natural and
able basis for the exchange Of
goods for goods or goods for serv-

What does Mr. Harding mean bN

dition of business before the war,
or does he mean during the war?
He admits that conditions are no.

millions of men out of employment
and their buying power absolutely
destroyed. How are you going to
set normal conditions when tho fac

Fair District Taxation.

IN ORDER that Congress might determine what
/ proportion Of District expenses the Federal gov
eminent should bear, Senator William H. King, Of
Utah. avowed friend of the Nations Capital has an
nounccd that he will present the proposition of a
tax commission for the establishment of first class
revenue system here. This commission will be
charged with the duty of drafting bill to regulate
and to that the levies are fair He stated
before the Senate in opposing the Jones bill, pro-
viding for $3.50 division of expenses that no ratio
should be fixed until it is determined whether tax
dodgers making this city refuge and waxing
prosperous the contributions of taxpayers OF the
States.
Washington officials say they want fair tax
rate, for it is the Districts well known fairness in
this respect which has made it inviting for people
to maintain homes here. They want it known
everywhere that taxes fair in Washington. If
it is necessary to establish commission to deter
mine what rate Of taxes is fair then let us have
the commission, they say. But the argument is put
forth that taxes are no lower here than in a ma
jority Of the States despite arguments of Senators
King, Caraway of Arkansas and others that in
States the taxes paid are much higher than in
the District of Columbia.
By all it is admitted that Washington the
seat of government, should take the lead of the
cities of the world To make the city superior in
beauty, magnihcence and population, there must be
advantages here, aside from government activities
If the taxpayers of the nation, whose pride is
wrapped in Washington, truly desire to the city
prosper, they cannot be averse to fairness in the
way OF taxation for it must be remembered that
taxes are imposed without representation and the
disfranchised citizens here are dependent upon
