There have been covenants in Eur

comes from sincere desire for
peace. That is what we have in
America. To that end we have been
willing to go far; to sacrifice much.

the whole world profit by our ex-

school girl. 1t may start some dis
cussion in Europe and stir spirit
among the race-hating, jealous,
greedy, pogrom- making, power-seek-
ing, debt-dodging, malicious and in
triguing governments, to a new
viewpoint and a new spirit of peace.

DERIVES STACKER OF
CITIZENSHIP

Declaring that the man had failed
in a critical test of loyalty, Judge
L. B. Day, of Omaha, Nebraska,
revoked citizenship papers granted
to Frank Kubes, who pleaded for
exemption as an alien during the
world war. Judge Days position
was stated following the discovery
that the man had used foreign
allegiance to escape world war SER
vice, though he had testified that he
had not claimed exemption.
The Omaha jurist has been an
ardent friend of aliens who served
in the United States forces with
honor, and has obtained citizenship
for such men in several cases pre-
sented by the American Legion. His
decision in. the Kubes case that one
who sought exemption is not fitted
to become citizen is regarded as
strict adherence to principles of
Americanism.

on in to ask him to repeat some
paragraph that seemed to appeal to
him particularly.
"The boy continued reading as
customers came and bought. At
page 6 the blind man told the boy
to stop. He said he had heard

Such a display of tenderness tow

of any United States Senator is

But we do not recall his having
written any letter to a newspaper
announcing himself as inflexibly op-
posed to such a largess from the
National Treasury; or rather such a
looting of it.
Thousands of them served their
country at the risk of life, limb and
health for $50 month.
Will Senator Bruce, or any other
Senator, serve his country without
risking life or limb, and at a mini
mum risk to health, for $50 a
month?
And if the Senators do this what
will be their attitude if at the end
of eighteen months service it is
proposed that their pay be raised to
$40 or $50 a month, with the in
crease to be retroactive to the first
month of service?

themselves as "inflexibly opposed

This country is prosperous. And
because it is prosperous the politi-
clans take greater liberties in i'm
posing taxes. But the prosperity of
the country will not continue if these
excessive taxes continue. They both
cannot exist at the same time.
The income tax laws of the United
States now impose taxes on EARN
ED income, but do not tax UNearn-
ed income. In other words, you have
to pay tax on the money you work
for, but the man who invests his
money in tax-exempt bonds gets
large interests without working for
it, and he does NOT pay tax on it.
And yet the Sixteenth Amendment
to the Constitution provides that the
Government shall tax "INCOME

 Announcements of further gasoline price cuts brought about some liquida- ton of the oil shares, but the net losses as a rule were small. Reports of rec ord breaking gasoline consumption last week had a steadying effect on these issues.
