Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown, Ethiopian heads as well as others. Se- lassie is reported to have admitted, in substance, that he is licked, and to have asked England to serve as go-betWeen in patching up things. The whole affair turned out about as expect ed. England has had some experience in wiping up small nations, for instance the Boers, and perhaps she knows enough about both view points so that she can be of genuine aid to Abys- sinia. The United States has no stones to throw at England or Italy. Speak ing of wars of pure con- quest to gain territory, we have some explanations to make to the Indians.

WASHINGTON CURRENT
 COMMENT

Washington, D. C. March l0-In his latest message to Congress, the President points out the need for in- creased revenue and sug- gests a tax to be levied up- on the undivided incomes of corporations and calcu- lated to yield more than a billion dollars. Against the plan. it is urged that it would be unjust to penalize business organizations Whi- ch have been so well man. aged that they have been able to carry on, employ labor and pay dividends out of their surplus during a period which is common ly known as the depression
 In it's favor it is argued that there is no reason why stockholders who are rich enough so that they do not need dividends should be permitted to escape taxa tion by letting what would otherwise come to them as taxable income remain seg- regated as an untaXable surplus in the hands of the corporation. Each argu- ment appears so sound that the average reader can do no more than repeat the question that Pope the poet propounded long ago: Who shall decide when doctors disagree?

Comes now the answer to the
story that we so mysteriously re-

lance it's just a yarn about where
to cool off and be entertained

Where they go to is something Tor

they are taken is something we

They are neither large enough
for soup nor small enough for
