Foreign Words Tax
Sought in Berlin

Berlin, April ga. Z. by Mail)-
Casting about for things to tax
SO that Berlin's depleted exchequer
may be replenished-the Argus eyes
of the municipal receiver have fallen
upon a host of shop signs which have
sprung up along tho streets since
prc-War days. 1T is not the signs
themselves he wants to assess, nor
their newness, but the foreign words
used in them.
Thus he thinks If any Berlin
hosiery prefers to be known as a
"hotcl," instead of priding itself on
being just a plain German Cast
writ" it should pay for the privilege
of offending good German eyes by
its advertisement in this way in a
foreign language. The same view
prevails as to firms whose doors are
crowned with "coiffeur," modes.
"restaurant." or the like. Even an
cntcrprising chap from overseas who
hung out the shinCle american
Dentist" would be hit. Particularly
acgravating to dycd-in- they DOL
Germans has been the tendency TO
label Il Fluent Uhr Tee" as give
o'clock Tea" especially since such a
matinee luxury is patroniZed largely
by foreigners anyway.
There is scarcely menu in Berlin
which does not list ham and eggs
boldly without any attempt to give
its German equivalent. but it is not
yet known whether the watch dog
of the city treasury would also try
to extend his proposed tax to menus
Or even to the word menu" itself.
The tax has not Vet reached more
than the talking and investigating
stage. It's adoption is considered
likely, however, for sentiment in
favor Of such Il step has increased
greatly stree n similar measure was
adopted at Milan, Italy.

LLOYD-GEORGE PAYS
TRIBUTE TO PARTY
SAYS REPUBLICAN PLAN OF
PREPARATIONS is SURE TO
EFFECT SETTLEMENT

Washington, Oct. 15.-"The people
of the United States may well feel
qualification over the tribute by
Lloyd George to the s~oundness of GER
tain Republican international policies
declares the Republican Publicity As
ISOLATION. "In a recent address Mr..
Lloyd George declared that Secretary
Hughes plan for the settlement of the
Preparations dispute is absolutely the
best hope of the settlement Of repara-
tons Since the Preparations contro-
versy seems to be he great obstacle
to the resumption of the enterprises
and industries of peace, it follows that
Secretary Hughes has made the most
practical suggestion looking toward
restoration of the world to normal
conditions.
"The former British premier is not
alone in the estimate he has made OF
the Hughes proposal Other eminent
men here and in other countries have
approved it with equal earnestness.
Our internationalists, however, did not
rally to the scheme when it was first
put forth last December. Their re-
fusal may have been due to the fact
that the plan was not of Democratic
or Wilsonite origin or that it did not
call for any sacrifice on the part OF
the United States o. any official par
ticipating by this Government il
European affairs. Those are the ap.
parent specifications 20 which any
plan for European relief must con.
form to meet the approval of the in.
te~rnationalists.
"Since the Hughes proposal was
made in the address at New Haver
nearly a year ago, there have beer
repeated efforts to deceive the people
of the country as to the nature o.
the suggestion. 1t has been widely
declared that Hughes proposed tina

not actually been paid. That is a
fair and honest way g keeping the
accounts.
Heretofore it has been the practice
to charge the expenses Of the Post
Office Department at Washington
the office of the Postmaster General
and his assistants-to the general ex-
penses of the Government, just as
the expenses of the Department of
Labor are charged. The expense Of
the Department here has not hereto
fore been charged as part of the ex-
pens of running the postal system.
Yet, in reality, this is a real and nee
essary part of the expense of handl-
ing mail, just as the general corpora
ton offices of q railroad are a
necessary part of the opera
ton of the road. In the fiscal year
which ended June 80, 1923, the over
head expenses was for the first time
charged as a part Of the postal SER
vice.
There is one feature of postal ex-
pense which cannot be exactly stated
each year-the rental value of public
buildings owned by the Government
and used by the post offices. In many
instances the public buildings are oc
cupied jointly by the postal service
and other branches of the Govern
ment. Any apportionment of the rem
tai value to the different service,
would be but an approximation, as
also, would the estimate of the tota
rental value of the building. Fedora
buildings are of special design, usual
ly' constructed with some considera
ton of architectural beauty instea
of usefulness exclusively, and tn
cost is often out of proportion t

AVOID MECHANICAL INJURY IN
HARVESTING SEED POTATOES

The average seed-potato grower
does not fully appreciate the import
ance of using every means to pre-
vent injury to the tubers from rough
handling during the process of har-
vesting and storing, says the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Mechanical injuries to a tuber are
sources for the entrance of infec-
ton which rapidly spreads to other
tubers which come in contact with the
injured one. If the crop is grown on
land which contains many small
stones the tubers are almost certain
to be more severely injured than
when grown in a sandy loan. Hand
digging is not always feasible, but II
is believed that where small stones
abound in the soil it will be desirable
to harvest the home seed plat that
way. Much injury will be avoided il
the seed stock designed for planting
the field plat for the ensuing year !:
picked directly into crates in which
it is allowed to remain Throughout
the storage period.
Storage conditions necessary to IN
sure vigorous seed at planting tim'
are more easily provided in the nortl
than in the South. In the former re
gion a well-constructed cellar, pit, o.
cave serves reasonably well. TIL
main thing is to keep the room tenn
perature sufficiently low to retar'
termination. The ideal seed tuber /

Such tubers can be depended upon, l
suitable conditions prevail, to star

vigorous growth.

You can turn gray, faded hair beau
tifully dark and lustrous almost owe

Sage and Sulphur Compound" at any
drug store. Millions of bottles of this
old famous Sage Tea Recipe, improved
by the addition of other ingredients
are sold annually, say well-known drug
gists here, because it darkens the hair
so naturally and evenly that no n can

becoming faded have a surprise await
ing them, because after n or two ap-
plications the gray hair vanishes and
your locks become luxuriantly dark and
beautiful.
This is the age of youth. Gray
haired, unattractive folks aren't wanted
around, so get busy with Wyeth's Sage

Nearing the Presidential Starting Post

With twenty states operating Presidential primaries it will
not be long-as a fact not more than six mOnths-before the
national candidates will become known and the dark horses
smoked into the paddock. The first primary is that of New
Hampshire which will be held March IL. North Dakota follows
a week later and then the whole system gets into rapid operation.
Here is a list of the states having presidential primary laws
with the dates for the primary elections of all parties.

In Florida the Republican party is eliminated, the law of the
state not applying to a party not polling 35 per cent Of the total
vote in the preceding general election. Republicans of Florida,
therefore, will hold a convention to pick candidates.
The spread of the primary system gives cause for much IN
easiness among a number of state bosses who for years have DOM
mated the political situation. By combinations, dickers, con-
ventiOn unit rules and other speciOus practices they have turned
the wish of the people into a voice so still and small that it is
not heard even in a whisper. The threatened ending of such
power naturally is not too pleasing. In brief the presidential
primary takes the crooked boss out of authority and restores
the right of franchise to the people. If the primary system
expands to any appreciate extent the country newspapers alone,
voicing the wish of more than 60 900 of tbs American peo-
pie will render it impossible to crush popular demand in the
machinery Of party chicanery when it happens to exist.

An omnibus line between Arvada
and Denver is contemplated by a
large Denver concern provided resi-
dents of the town express wish
for it, it is announced today.
The firm contemplates service to
Denver car lines either every 20 or
80 minutes as patronage and condi-
lions warrant, using for the pupose
the largest and latest models of COM
plete!y equipped auto BUSES.
This is accepted to mean that Ar
vada's extraordinary growth in re-
ent years is being generally recog-
nized by DenveS firms and presages
a still larger community increase in
the near future.
Many Arvada residents complain
Of the inconvenience imposed by the
present hourly tramway car service.
The omnibus company contem-
plating the establishment of the new
bus service considers that the large
number Of people travelling between
Arvada and Denver warrants oper-
alton of several cars for the conven-
fence of this community.
1t is not expected, however, that
this enterprise will be in the least
charitable, since large patronage
would make it exceptionally profit
able.
