A TIP FROM BOSTON

From our experiences, in Boston,
at mass meeting in the Commons and
we sell more pamphlets
priced 10 cents and higher, than the
cheap pamphlets. I presume that
the cheap pamphlets can be sold
better on house to ho=se sales, when
we go to get the signatures for the
election campaign"

DE VALERA'S DICKS FIRE ON
IRISH REPUBLICAN ARMY MEN

DUBLIN-Two militant members
Of the Irish Republican Army were
wounded Monday, when De Valera S
detectives fired on them. One of the
injured is George Gilmore, who was
among the members of the Irish Re-
publican Army imprisoned by Cos
grave and released under the mass
pressure of the Irish workers when
De Valera's government came into
power.
De Valera planned to demobilize
the Irish Republican Army through
its leaders, who entered into a pact
with the government to this effect.
The rank and file members of the
army showed repeatedly their mill
fancy and their determination to
fight against the exploitation of the
Irish industrialists and landowners,
and against The oppression of Brit
ish imperialism.
The wounding of two members of
the Irish Republican Army shows
that De Valera fears their militancy.
The formation of new army or a
White Guard, which is recruiting
we'll trained men, is welcomed by De
Valera as supplying him with an ex-
cuse for dispensing the Irish Repub-
ucan Army.

ADD NEW MISERY TO JAPAN

TOKYO-Japanese yen exchange
broke again on Tuesday, forcing the
yen to the lowest levels reached since
Japan was forced off the gold stand
ard. The new drop lowered the value
of the yen to 1880 cents, as against
1880, the normal exchange rate.
With the sudden decline of the yen,
raw silk futures also moved down.

circles that the Japanese military ad-
venture in Manchuria is causing a
tremendous deepening of the crisis in
Japan.
The Japanese government at
tempted to peg the falling yen by a
new attack on the working class,
reducing the interest on postal saw
ings from AZ per cent to 8 per cent,
and carrying out a new initiation OF
the currency, thus further reducing
the purchasing power of the yen
and increasing the misery of the toll
ing masses.

NEXT ECLIPSE
DUE IN 1945 Or
MAYBE 2017

FRY EBURG, Me. Aug 26
UN.SO With the total eclipse
Sof the sun only five days away,
the principal astronomers of the
world. scattered with their observ-
ing apparatus from the Maine
coast to points north of the ST.
Lawrence River, still are further
than that today from deciding
just when the next important to-
tai eclipse occurs in this country,
, Those scientists with the great
est passion for mere fact assert
that the next total eclipse visible
in the United States will occur on
July 9, 1945 barely 13 years from
now.
IS Years Away
Others less concerned with tech
nicalities claim that the next to-
tai eclipse that can be called
good. substantial total eclipse and
yet be visible from the United
States will not occur until August
s21, 2017. just 10 days short Of IS
years after the coming eclipse on
August 81.
The Encyclopedia Britannica. in
can article written by DR.. j. A.
Carroll. chief of the astrophysical
section at Cambridge University,
England, states dogmatically that
the next total eclipse visible from
the United States will be of 81
minutes duration on February rs,
1879. That sets At years AS the
interval between the eclipse next
. week and the next total eclipse.
Wide Differences
This wide disparity of opinion
between those scientists most care
ful with facts and figures is due
entirely to what most astrologerS
and the lay public alike think an
eclipse should be.
AS DR.. Charles E. Smiley, of
Brown University. puts it, the
eclipse of 1945 and the next two
technical total eclipses of the sun,
on June 30, 1854, and october 2,
. 1859, will be visible only at or
near sunrise and consequently
will not be favorably located in
the sky for professional observa-
ton" nor for the lay public in
9its path, as they last but few
seconds.
DR.. Smiley agrees with DR.. j.
Robertson, of the U. S. Naval
Observatory. that the first next
really satisfactory total eclipse
will occur on July 20. 1868, 81
years from now. 1t will be visi-

The Drive Is On

Two events on Friday show the determi-
nation of the people of this state to protect
themselves from bankruptcy that is threat
ened through unfair taxation, both official
and protected.
The first is the decision of the commits
sion named to write program for special
session of the legislature that promises to re-
ieve the farmer and the home owner from
the unequal burden they now carry.
The other is the courageous declaration
of Lawrence T. Orr, head of the state board
of accounts, that utility rates must be low
cred before any real relief can be secured.
The committee recommends an income
tax. Such a measure was killed in the last leg
islature by the most powerful lobby which
ever gathered at the state capitol.
An income tax would take the money
from those who have it and lift the menace
of sheriff sales from owners of real estate
It is admitted that only small percent
age of the wealth of the state pays the taxes.
New forms of wealth escape and real estate
pays the bills.
1t is true that before there will be really
fair distribution of taxes the income tax
must also include tax on corporations,
which have supplanted the individual. But
the income tax is the proper start.
The frank declaration of Lawrence Orr
that the utility bills are in reality tax will
accelerate the drive that is being made all
over the state for relief from unjust burdens
established during days of initiation.
In the periods of prosperity the utilities
established for themselves the principle that
they had the right to collect not on invest
ments, but on the cost of reproducing their
plants. They capitalized the war and its
imitation.
The Times suggested months ago that
legal principle of valuation that worked in
periods of initiation should work in periods of
deflation. Orr repeats this with emphasis.
Utility service is an essential part of mod
ern life. The water rates are direct tax in
this city. No building is useful, either for
habitation or for commerce or industry with
out it. To permit the local company to con-
tinue it's extortions is unthinkable. The same
is true to degree of electricity.
The best way to avoid the disaster that
is threatened by present conditions is to re-
adjust the tax burdens and give the people
break-or at least half break. Today they
are slaves to injustice.

Will CuthbertsOn ACT?

Mavor Sullivan, acting for the people, has de-
anded that the public service commission investigate
the methods of the local electric monopoly and It's
foreign holding company.
He demands to know which of two sets of figures
are correct-the reports made to the public service
commission as to income the statements given to
the public in order to sell securities
He demands to know why the management OF one
company costs twice as much the management Of
two companies before the merger.
He demands to know the reason for the long term
contract with the insult interests for power at much
higher figure than the cost Of production, with the in
ference that this was a part of deal between two
promoting interests for division of the loot in In
dianapols.
He demands to know why coal is purchased from
a subsidiary of the holding company which owns the
stock of the local electric company.
brief inquiry by Commissioner Cuthbertson into
the two sets of figures should be basis for mme
date order for reduction. If the company is losing
greatly in revenues he might be justified in refusing
to take action But If that be true he should know
why the company showed, in pamphlet issued while
such an appeal was made that its revenues for the
twelve months ending Sept 80 of last year showed
very small decline over the revenues for the same
period year before
The law has name for such statements if they
can not be reconcied.
Commissioner Cuthbertson has plenty of time to
give to an effort to prove that candidate for
Governor on the Democratic ticket is utility minded.
He may hope to distract attention from his long
service as legislator to utility interests and his pres
ent reward as a member Of the public service COM
mission.
Apparently he has no time to act on the appeal OF
indianapolis for relief
Political activities will not be accented a. an eX-
,use for his failure to give attention to this important
matter.
The people want relief-and want it now.

NEW YORK, March 12-Sales
IN tax or luxury tax, income tax
or nuisance tax, this is no time to
ask the American people for an
extra billion dollars in cash.
No private business could survive
on such a policy. For that matter
no private business could survive on
the policy pursued at Washington
since 1929.
Had the Hoover administration
begun to curtail expenses right after
the stock market crash, it would not
be facing such an enormous deficit.
Had preceding administrations re-
fused to repeal taxes favoring
wealth and speculation, even in
part, they could have built up an
ample reserve with which to meet
this emergency.
The economic situation confront
ing our government is rooted in lack
of foresight.
