AS AGAINST 3 IN 1913

CHICAGO, Jan. 17.-On a basis Of
total taxes to total income, each
individual in this country was re-.
quired to contribute six and q
quarter weeks income in 1922, as
against three and one-third weeks
income in 1918, for the support Of all
Government activities, ]. F. Zoller,
Of Schenectady, N. Y, told the
farmermanufacturer conference here
today.
"This means that the price has
doubled since 1918, while taxes in
practically all the States continue to
increase" Zoller said.

BIG T FUND

Pro-Leaguers in Charge Of
campaign-Attitude Of Con-

The Box peace plan has gone
TO trial before a jury packed in
It's favor.
That charge was made gen.
orally here today by members
Of Congress who have studied it.
Large sums of money are be-
ing spent to urge League of
Nations adherents to vote for it.
The American Peace Society to-
day sent out thousands Of let
ters urging it's friends to vote.
The letters contain the Box
pamphlet of eighteen pages, two
voting blanks. a card of instruc-
tions, and self-addressed en-
velope to the American Peace
Award, which is the Box organi-
zation.
Committees at Work.
Specially appointed committees
have been started at work in Cham
bers of Commerce, Rotary and
Kiwanis clubs, and similar organi-
Gations. A committee of League
proponents has sent out pamphlets
and stamped envelopes to 10000
Harvard graduates. Committees
are working in other college organ
izations. Especial attention is de-
voted to those who are known to
favor the League.
The 2-cent stamp which carries
the letter to the Harvard people
alone cost someone $1,000. That
cost does not include addressing or
mailing. 1t does not pay for the
printing Of either the cards of in
structions or the eighteen-page cir
cular.
Taking that cost as basis of
national expense, Congressman said
today: Someone is spending a ton
OF money again to get us into the
League"
This propaganda is going es.
pecially to known Leaguers. So
far as known, little or no effect
man on the street. .....

Those who make up the bulk Of
the 100000 majority against the
League at the last election are pre-.
sumed to be disgusted with. the
latest attempt to revive foreign en-
tanglements. The few Of them who
happen to be reached by the present
literature are expected not to take
the trouble to vote. They feel
Uncle Sam has settled the League
himself.
There is a possibility also of a

person who by chance is a mem
ber of the Peace Society and
Chamber of Commerce and is a

they say they expect, an army of
employees will be necessary to check
off the voters" to prevent duplica-
ton or repeating.
Packed Jury" Evidence.
A member Of the Box organization
was asked today how it happened
that at least six Of the seven chosen
to constitute the Jury Of award"
were pronounced pro-leaguers. He
said other names were suggested
but none of the persons could spare
the time to serve. He was unable
to explain how Elihu Root could
spare the time or how they hit
upon Brand Whitlock, minister to
Belgium, who is not in the country.
The member in charge" of the
Box peace award who was largely in
charge Of selecting the judges, is a
woman magazine writer whose work
has been published largely in the
magazine which was controlled by
Box.
Only the pro-League newspapers
Of the country are urging the 'adop-
ton" Of the Box plan. That fact in
creases the chance Of a decision by a

The First Glass Scout, in addition
to the above must swim fifty yards;

First Glass Scouts are eligible to
try for Merit badges in 70 vocational
subjects and arrive at the rank of
Eagle Scout by qualifying in 81 of
these subjects. All the Merit badge
subjects have much international,
educational and vocational value.
During the fourteen years of Boy
Scout history, merit badges have
been awarded to scouts to a total of
644,755, of which 149,858 were award

Principles Of The Order Clear

The membership has grown to $780,
sol boys and men; 45O,6S4 registered
scouts and 142,OS2 men giving service
in volunteer capacities as scoutmas-
ter, troop committee members, and
member Of local councils.
Approximately 100000 boys have
received the benefits of the Move
ment. 1858 boys and men are regis
tered as having been in the movement
from five to ten years. Thousands of
others are also known to be "Veteran
Scouts" though not registered in the
Veteran Scout Association.
There are 2,7OO fully organized and
equipped, standardized Boy Scout
camps capable of accommodating a
total of 100000 boys at one time with
trained leaders. In addition there are
many thousands Of single troop camp
sites. In the summer 1923, $4,000
scouts were in camp from one to
three weeks.
There are three classes of scouts.
All must thoroughly understand the
Scout Oath and Law, the Sign, Sa-
lutte and significance of the Badge.
The tenderfoot must also know the
Flag of the United States, and be able
TO tie ten specified knots

A total of "a Gold Honor medals
have been awarded to scouts who have
saved, or tried to save the lives of
others at the imminent peril of their
own. $50 other badges have been a
warded for extraordinary heroism in
saving or trying to save life.
There are now 20,437 troops in the
United States, composed of an aver
age of % boys each, located in ap-
proximately 5000 towns and cities.
Each troop is organized in connection
with an institution, such as church
or school,, or business mems club, or
under the supervision of a Community
committee. Among the institutions in
which there are Boy Scout troops,
there are 10,803 churches, 1,719
schools, 285 Y. M. C. AS, 1853 Ro-
tary and other business mems clubs,
and so forth.
Every scout is expected to do a
daily good turn. Each troop is ex-
pected to do a community good turn
whenever possible. All scouts are ex-
pected to respond to calls for special
emergency or Civic Service Good
Turns. This latter form of service
provides opportunities for boys to de-
velop resourcefulness, responsibility,
and first hand knowledge of the du-
ties of citizenship. They include these
services rendered on statewide and
nationwide scales; reforestration,
forest ire-fghting; cleanup cam
paigns, cooperation with the Ameri

in Relief campaigns; traffic duty and
safety first work; firemanship; COM

protection and wild life conservation;
anti-pest campaigns such as destruc-
ton of mosquito breeding beds; also
first aid work in connection with dis

That is the reason for that perfect
