(Established 1873) Ses aad GO A-FISHIN’ tion. It should be so nearly perfect that any state can use it as a pattern for its own tax-gath- ering machine. | “WITH THE EDITORS | ROOM FOR SOUND RADICALISM They are now talking at Washington of ap- pub-| propriating thirty billion dollars for the coming fiseal year. We spend about two per cent of that jsum yearly on our public schools. | Early in the war England began reconsider- ing the whole subject of public education. The British labor party took an active and influen- tial part in the reconsideration. Thanks partly to its leadership, a decidedly broader and better \scheme of public education is now being formu- lated before parliament. Aside from the war itself, no other question is so important as this. About half our popula- tion of school age is in average daily attendance at institutions of public instruction through a school year that averages only one hundred and fifty-nine days; and a great many of those insti- tutions are ill-fitted for their task, with under- paid teachers. That is our record. We spend twice as much for automobiles as for public instruction, just because we care twice as much for them. But we should not. After this war the old plea that no more money is available When you get up in the wee sma’ hours of! will sound so silly that nobody will have the hardi- the early morn and make for river or lake where you sit for hours watching for nibbles and hoping for bites, you do more than catch fish, and you gain if you catch no fish at all. 1 You develop your strain of patience, which in modern man is subnormal. 2. You give your lungs a feast of fresh air, a thing lungs never get too much of. 8. You concentrate, even though it be up- on the water's ripple or the bobbing of the cork. It is good for the mind to exclude all other thoughts but one and concentrate upon that. 4. Your brain gets a rest; business wor- ries, household cares and other concerns are swept away for the time. 5. You witness. the most wonderful picture ever painted—-the coming of day with its glori- ous sunrise. 6. The power of imagination is increased. Listen to any fisherman’s story when he returns. AND—there’s always the possibility of help- ing Hoover by landing a mess of fish for dinner. THE NEW REVENUE BILL The new federal revenue bill must be built to run for many years. The congressman is a fool who thinks that any old kind of a bill which “gets the money” will do just because the people aré ready and eager to aid the government in bat- tling Germany. , This year there are hundreds of income tax- payers where there was one last year. The re- sult is a growing demand that the new revenue bill must be a big improvement over the present income tax and excess profits tax. Last fall crooked thinkers in congress rushed the non-thinkers into passing a mis-called excess profits tax, by crying, “the government needs the money and this bill will get it.” Just as much money can be raised by taxa- tion that is fair to every man as can be raised by a bill which favors one section of the country at the expense of another and which favors one set of industries at the expense of another set. If the taxing plan is fair and just, the rates can be raised when more money is needed and lowered when less money is needed. If the plan is unfair, then new plans must be made and new ways of taxing adopted whenever there is to be a change in the amount of money to be raised. The fairest tax would be one which makes every man pay according to his income and which takes all or nearly all of the increased income which any man gets because his country is in war. The new revenue bill should be a bill which would work after the war is over just as well as it does during the war. After the war is over, the expenses of the government will be greater than they were before the war. High tariffs will not be allowed, and the expenses of the govern- ment will be met by inheritance taxes and income taxes. Common good sense calls for a tax law now which will be so fair that everybody, rich and poor, will feel that in paying his government taxes he is doing his duty just as he is when he pays the grocery bills and rent for his family. The new revenue bill should be a bill which hood to repeat it. 4 There is a golden opportunity for genuine rad- icalism, for sound labor politics. Any political or- ganization with the vision and integrity to make a revolution in public education the leading plank in its platform will be entitled to the most re- spectful consideration. There is room and a wel- come for all the radicalism whose intellectual spe- cific gravity is sufficient to keep its feet on the ground.—Saturday Evening Post. \ SAVE EVERY CENT Next year living expenses will be higher. Taxes will be much greater. The income tax, which now touches hundreds of thousands of fam- ilies, will probably be doubled. There will be new and enormous bond issues. New calls for funds will be made by the Red Cross, the Y. M. C. Ai, the Knights of Columbus, the Salvation Army, forms of social work, must be kept up. z How shall the individual American meet his share of these mounting demands on his unelastic pocketbook? “me There is only one way h of us must save every possible cent. Summer is coming, with its opportunities for easy and pleasant vacation spending. We must cut every unnecessary cent out of our vacation expertses: We must deny our- selves luxuries, economize even in what we have come to think necessities. wasteful we must be thrifty. . We must insist that congress tax to the limit the horde of profiteers who “have piled up great fortunes out of the war. We must demand tax legislation that will shear war profits close to the skin. But that will not solve our individual prob- lem. There is hardly a man or woman in America who cannot retrench in some way. The individual savings may run only into dimes and quarters.

APPLY FOR SOLDIERS’ BALLOTS A man who is away from home on a busi- ness trip or a fishing trip at election time is en- titled under the laws of the state to cast his vote by mail, whether at the primary or the general election. There seems to be no good reason why a man in the military or naval service of the Unit- ed States should not have the same privilege. There are physical obstacles in the way of sending ballots to our soldiers and sailors who are abroad, and in receiving back the ballots properly marked. But there is no more reason why a sol- dier who is stationed at Camp Dodge or Camp Funston or any other camp or cantonment in the United States should not do his voting by mail just as well as the man who is in Chicago on a business trip, or who has gone to Vermont to visit his folks.
