One of the time honored observances of interna-
tional diplomats. meticulously formal though they are
in all their official acts, is taking a beating. Nations
about to fight one another don't declare war any
more, they just move in and start shooting.
That happened when Italy went after Ethiopia.
The African country was regarded in international
diplomacy as one of the family of nations. but when
Mussolini decided he wanted that land for his expan-
sion program he simply invaded it, eliminating the
Ethiopian monarchy and making the country an Ital-
Ian colony governed by the military forces of Italy.
Russia and France have not declared war on
the Spanish rebels. nor have Italy and Germany brok-
en- off relations with the Spanish government. 1t is no
secret. however. that Frances cause has been kept
alive with the aid of German and Italian troops and
equipment. that government forces would have col
lapsed long ago in the face of such opposition had it
not been for Russian airplanes and French military
experts.
In the far east. enmity between Japan and China
has been growing steadily in recent years as the
island empire gradually extended its control by TAX
ing over north China provinces. That hostile feeling
suddenly flared into open conflict two weeks ago and
now We have in China another undeclared war being
fought with Japan as the invader and China the in
tended victim.
The World war is recent enough so that many
remomher the formal ultimatums that were issued as
ma IONS made ready to pOunce upon one another, the
pompous notes that passed back and forth between
diplomats until finally diplomatic relations were sew
cred ana. as the parting verbal shot, war was finally
delcarel :. But it seems. such trappings no longer dec
crate a nations entry into war, the ornamental
phraseology Of state papers is giving way to the sharp
staccato of the machine gun.
1t would be well while we are undressing" war
TO 80 the whole way and strip from It all the glamor
OF patriotic ~ballyhoo that makes men willing to die
in battle: leave war exposed as mass butchery promn-
ted ~ he selfshness of men and directed by dictat-
ors whether political or economic=whose power is
so great that they can send hundreds of thousands
to b. slaughtered to further their own interests or
ambitions.

WITH OTHER EDITORS


A report from Wolf Point states that some stock
buyers working In Montana are taking advantage of
drouth conditions and the feeling of panic they gen
crate to offer prices far below the market for cattle
and horses.
There is a large number OF buyers in the terri
tory now and while many of them undoubtedly are
making legitimate offers, still 1t is wise for sellers
TO Keep Themselves informed as to markets and pric-
es.
AS a matter of fact. market conditions are re-
naming fairly steady and good, market experts say.
While there Is a drouth of some proportions in the
western area. 1t by no means covers as much TERRITORY
as in previous years. Therefore. the markt has not
Deen Hooded and prices are fair to excellent.
There are legitimate and reliable sources
through which the stock owner can obtain market in
formation. The county agent, for instance. stands
ready to obtain such information at any time. There
are other places where it may be secured. Meanwhile
We must be on the lookout for that type of buyer who
y more than willing to trade on the bad fortune NJ
his fellow man through drouth. Such a buyer deserves
40 Courier.
Happiness is the ever retreating summit on the
hill Of ambition.

Revise the Tax Laws

II is reported from Washington that Congress
intends. at its next session. to take up taxation In
a serious way. 1t is perhaps too much to hope that
when if has finished studying the subject 1t will en-
act a law or a series of laws which will distribute
the burden OF taxation more e~quitably and yield
enough revenue to pay the expenss of government
without doing serious injury to anybody.
1t is too much to expect that any new tax law
will please everybody. There is not and never has
been any such thing as painless taxation. But there
is no question that the present Federal tax laws are
a hodce-podge. without system or order. and that
they bear down too heavily in some places and not
hard enough in Others.
Much of the present system of taxation is based
upon the principle of taxing everything in sight.
When the great British statesman. Mr.. Gladstone,
saw the first electric generator he asked the inventor,
Michael Faraday, what good ii was. Faraday replied:
"Some day you can tax it." He was a true prophet.
The electric power industry, which grew from Fara-
DAYS invention. has been a favorite subject for many
years.
The tendency of many of our tax laws Is to de-
famous dictum. THE power to tax involves the power
to destroy" What is needed is less destructive taxa
ton and more taxes levied in the open, where every
man can see that he is Il being taxed, and how much.

doctors investigated the case and after discovering
the cause of the fatalities among the sheep. reported
that such poisoning is very rare. occurring most often
in regions of many lakes. Its occurrence in this case
is ascribed to the fact that a strong wind concentrat-
ed the poisonous algae in one part of the pool and it
was from that point that the livestock drank.

M E N|NCITIS EPIDE MIG IS
 ALMOST OVER
pr. Corthell's s Efforts Break Seige Which Takes
 Toll of Six

BETHEL, Alaska, Aug 2.--The spinal meningitis epidemic, which took toll of at least six lives in isolated communities around here in the past few weeks, is believed broken as result of the heroic ef- forts of Dr. M E. Corthell.
 pr. Corthell, who postponed a years leave of absence since the siege broke out, has cruised up and down the Kuskokwim river in the effort to halt the spread of the deadly disease.
 No new cases have been report ed and other cases are responding to treatment. All cases are con- fined to one village and to the sum- mer fishing camps. Indians, how ever, are restless.
 Dr. Corthell came to Alaska in 1880 after a private practice in Bandon, Ore. He worked on hos pital boat on the Yukon river un- til the hospital in Mountain Vil- lage was built. He was made doc tor in charge Dr. Corthell, who had planned a years leave of ab- sence to study postgraduate surgi- cal work at the University of Colum- bia Medical center, was delayed from leaving because of the present epidemic. After completing this study Dr. Corthell plans to return to Alaska.
 The quarantine which Mrs. N. L. Heron, nurse for the Bureau of In- dian Affairs, established before the arrival of pr. Corthell is still en- forced at Napkiak Village, where most of the cases are isolated. Fish. which is their main fod supply, is scarce. Food relief from the Gov ernment may be necessary. The population affected numbers about 300.
