Pay as We Fight,

The only way, then, to stop imitation
Is to stop the borrowing and pay for
the war as we fight it. If there must
be another war, let us, when we send
our men into battle, prepare to meet
the bills as they come. That can be
done only by taxation. And since we
are select in choosing the best, young
est and healthiest to do our fighting
in time of war, we should be equally
select in levying the taxes to meet its
cost, and those most able to pay should
bear the brunt of the taxes occasioned
by war.
The legislation which the Senate
Committee proposes provides a tax
upon incomes starting at $500. The
bill steps up the rate of taxation so
that those earnings more will contrib
ute proportionately more in paying for
the war. The bill provides tax of
100 per cent upon all income in ex-

you will only realize it: many doctors

II you knew what doctor knows,
you would use only the liquid form.
A liquid can always be taken in

dosage is the secrd Of any real relief
from constipation.
Ask a doctor about this. Ask your

Of help. The liquid laxative generally
used is DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin.
Il contains SIENNA and cascara - both

practical political wing, was shocked
beyond words at the remarks OF Post

the Colorado Democratic central COM

II Lewis had been head, for instance
OF the automobile workers, and they
had followed him with the same per-
centage of loyalty that the coal min
ers have demonstrated. the story
would be very different.
For In the case of the automobile In

In the coal industry. however, there
has been active competition from oil,
both for ships and for factories, and
even for homes. There has been the
rapid development of gas and cleo

electrification of the Pennsylvania

accentuated the slumping curve OF rail-
road coal consumtlon, as shipping, es-
pecially the big trunk lines leading

So that In boosting the price OF coal
by increasing wages, Lewis success

the sort Of point that usually gives
labor leaders much pause. But they
cite 1t as showing that Lewis lacks
judgment.
However, several very large employ
