rich, those who cannot spend their
incomes find it hard to save in
these days of high income taxes and
surtaxes But savings are the only
source of new capital, the only ma

build a greater and stronger body

ness grows more and more slowly
and finally stops growing at all. But
population keeps on increasing; more
jobs are needed every year, and the
only place where they can be found
is i'm business that is increasing
through the constant addition of new
capital High taxes divert the saw
ines of the people from productive
business to government salaries and
bond payments,
The government takes, as we have
said. one-tenth of the entire sum Of
wealth that the nation produces; that
is, it takes approximately all the
are to be any profits and
therefore any business - costs
must be scaled down or prices
marked up. The tendency is
toward reducing costs-toward low
er wages, lower prices for farm prod
ucts, and unemployment. We are
paying for the waste of war; and.
disagreeable as we find it, we are
having less trouble than any other
nation.
Most of the government eXpendi-
lures are unavoidable now; but some
are not. Congress will be derelict in
its duty if it does not seriously pur-
sue economy. Public opinion will be
to blame if it does not urge and keep
urging that duty on congress. The
tendency for years has been toward
continually rising scale Of govern
ment expenditure, and a continually

before the war we had the tariff and
the taxes on liquor to produce reye-
nue. without our feeling the burden
seriously. Today we can count little
on foreign imports, and prohibition
has cut the internal revenue to al
most nothing. Government has its
hand now visibly and sensibly in our
pockets, and business is showing the

1t behooyes the dry forces OF the
nation to take prompt and vigorous
action to checkmatc this latest
scheme OF the vets Every candidate
for the national senate on house Of
representatives should be forced to
unequivocally state his position on
this issue. and all boldoyer senators
should be urged to oppose the plan.
1t should be pointed out 10 the eX-
service men that this attempt to in
fluence their votes is an insult to
their patriotism and manhood. The
idea of trying to bride the heroes
of the world war to become merce-
naries of the liquor cause, evidences
the shamelessness of the men in

TAXES AND SAVINGS

Many different things are combin-
ing TO depress business and TO dis
courage enterprise. Yet most of
them can be traced back TO their real
origin. the sinful waste OF war. We
are just beginning to understand
what it is going to cost us-aud the
rest of the world-to foot the bills
for the calamity of those four red
years. Our tax bills are educating
us.
When the war began our govern
ment was spending perhaps 5000
100000 a year. This year it will
spend about $4,0o0,000,00O. In 1919,
the country working at high speed
and at high prices. produced some
thing like $G2 .0o8,O00.0o0 of wealth.
Today it probably produces not much
more ihan $40.Oo0000.0GO. The
federal government is taking for it's
running expenses one dollar out OF
every ten that the people create by
their labor. II taxes every family
on the average $3.50 @ year. which
is more than twice as much as the
estimated yearly personal savings of
the people
We need not point ont that such
taxes make ang alnd OF saving diff
cult: our readers have found thai

WHEN BOYS ARE MEN

The old saw, boys will be boys,
is getting worn out. Boys will be
men, and they are not waiting for
their 21st birthday to prove IT, One
of the most interesting developments
in the Boy Scout movement is the
civic or community good turn, in
which all the scouts of a community
turn to and do the work Of men in
connection with some public service.
The extent to which scouts are learn
ing citizenship through doing such
things, is little guessed by the gen
erai public.
Probably a week does not go by in
which scouts somewhere are not Civ
ing one or another of the following
forms of community service, always
under the leadership of local scout
authorities and supervision of the
civil authorities
Walk-rite campaigns; displaying
placards at street crossings and aid
ing traffic officers to inculcate habits
Of carefulness on the public streets.
Health campaigns; locating and re-
porting unsanitary conditions and dis
tributing health department notices
Town-beautful campaigns; getting
everybody to clean up backwards and
unoccupied lots, and otherwise beau
tify the towns
Tree census to preserve shade trees
of the community
Safety-ftrst campaigns; reporting
all kinds of dangerous spots in the
town and cooperating with the ma
tional satety-first council in its pro
gram.
Red Cross work
Searching for lost children.
Kindness to animals campaign. CO.

Anti-weed crusades both town and

Anti-pest campaigns; Investigating
pools ana SWampS and drainage spots

mosquitoes, distributing literature on
the subject; similarly to rid com
munities of all destructive pests.
General services as messengers.

dren, distribution of Christmas and

These and kindred good turns and
troop activities constitute one distinc-
tive phase of the MISUNDERSTANDING
activities of the Boy Scout program.

A BIG DIFFERENCE

There is a big difference between
selling merchandise on pictures and
on samples. II is "a very easy matter
to convey n favorable impression of
goods and prices by attractive pic
lures and Auditory printed descrip-
tons, but it is an entirely different
matter to prove their merits when
they are compared side by side with
other goods and other prices
This difference was convincingly
illustrated recently when Montgom-
cry Ward & Co rendered bids for
furnishing $4,000 of supplies to
the state institutions of Kansas.
The state called for bids on 175
items, including groceries and wear
ing apparel The specifications were
rigid and all bidders were required
to submit samples of each article on
which they bid. The Merchants
Journal summarizes the result as fol-
lows:
Montgomery Ward & Co, for the
first time in history entered the bid
bling, with the intention of carrying
off all the bids possible from the re-
tail and wholesale merchants OF Kan
sas But on opening the bids it was
found that Montgomery Ward will
supply the state with only two items,
two dozen bath brushes and 81 bar
rels of oatmeal. for a total value Of
$174.25. instead Of the $4,000
worth for which they had hoped.
Kansas merchants carried off prac-
tically every other bid, only a few
going outside the state.
THE bidders were pinned down
absolutely and no chance was given
for camouflage by the rule that sam
Piles of articles bid on must be sub
mitted Several of Montgomery
Ward samples were rejected as not
coming up to specifications. When
the goods were the same, the mail
order firms bid was found too high
in all but two instances. This would
seem to indicate that the only adj
vantage the mail order house has
over the merchant is in being able to
substitute inferior articles, to the
detriment of the customer.
"On standard merchandise they
could not stand the gaff

1t seems to be the opinion of the
ordinary citizen and men on the
street that it would be just as well
if the city council of Pullman brought
their minds down to earth little,
and would provide with all possible
speed an adequate fire engine and
other equipment necessary for MAX
ing the city of Pullman a little less
OF fire trap. We can live for a few
years without shade trees planted
on our parkings, but the ordinary
mortal feels the need of roof over
his head.
Just here we are reminded that
the date set by the city fathers for
discussion on the part of the taxpay-
ers of the advisability of identifying
the environment of the new paving

the religious would call a movable

it for February 81. In union there

Lord Balfour has told the nations of
Europe that they are in danger of losing
prestige in America unless they show
more disposition to help themselves. He
might have added that their prestige would
be greater in the United States if they
would show a genuine and hearty appre-
citation of what we have done for them
ard would cease to hold out their hands
for more. If we had not sent 1000, ,0OO
men across the Atlantic and loaned the
Allies $40, 900, 900. 600, the iron heel OF
Germany would now be on their necks
and they. stripped of the colonies and
shorn of part of their home dominions,
would now be paying war indemnities to
the German government. The United
States saved England. France, Belgium,
1t ally and several smaller nations from
German domination. The Allies would
have been whipped if the arrival of ouI
troops on the battle front had been de.
layed six months longer. They shoulc
not forget that.

m nm were expepded for land, build

900. 900 were expended for land, build
ines, ETC., for 90 flying and testing fields.
After all this expense the facts show
that we did not send even one pursuit
plane, or one combat plane, or one bomb
ing plane, of American make, to the bat
tie front. American enterprise and in
eenuity produced 2l3 observation planes
and these were sent to France.
Several Democratic senators, notably
MIR. Caraway of Arkansas and MI wat
son of Georgia have been clamoring for
the indictment of the men who defraud-
ed the government during the war. All
this clamor is raised for the purpose OF
discrediting Mr. Daughtney, the present
Attorney General of the United Sta S.
They saw he is in league with the pr fl
.eers and will not proceed against tn m.
The attacking parties seem to be tn-
aware of the fact that the Democr ic
administration remained in power OF
more than two years after the close OF
the war, and in all that time made no at
tempt to investigate or to audit. They
seem to have forgotten that all the war
profiteering was carried no right under
the noses of Newton d. Baker, Josephus
Daniels and a few other men whom we
might mention, all of whom were Demo-
Gratis. "People who live in glass houses
