Britain hes honored Tommy Atkins, France her Poilu, but America has not so much as given her Yank a thought. There seems to be no place for him at Arlington. He gave his life to his country. May be that was all he had to give. But he gave it. He asked no higher privilege. He knew his duty and he went straight to it, When the order came to go over the top he was the first man up, When it was all over they found him away up front where resistance had been the most stubborn. There were many brave boys in the enemy uniform lying where they fell, but he was the only one in that part of the field who gave evidence of American origin and American prowess. , He went west from there, but he saw to it that “others had. stested in the same direction before he began the journey. ; The remnants of his mortality repose beneath a wooden cross in France. His spirit is still with the American army. It matters not that Britain and France haye pre- ceded us in honoring their unknown heroes. They hold no patent to rendering tribute to bravery. And what's the odds. Our heroes and their heroes fought on the same line. For the same cause. They all gave their lives that the Union Jack the Tricolor and the Stars and Stripes might continue to. wave over free-and friendly. people. This republic should bring the remains of that unknown-boy from his temporary resting place in France, to his home upon a sunny slope in Ar- -lington. The proudest’ battleship we boast should “bear the sacred remains. The pomp and circum- =stance of war should be his. And while the flag 4s displayed at half mast throughout the land and =a nation stands at attention, the ashes of this boy should be delivered back to the soil of his native land in the consecrated spot sacred to the heroes of the republic, The president is writing the final chapters of his message to congress for presentation next Tues- ‘day. There is not much public interest in what the forthcoming document sill contain: TRUE TO OUR TRADITIONS. Whatever may be the outcome in the matter of our international relations, league of nations, as- sociation of nations, or what not, we may be re- assured that President Harding will never propose, and the senate will never accept, an international agreement that confers jurisdiction upon a foreign council over American armies and navies; that agrees in advance upon a course of conduct that we will pursue in the event of more foreign wars; that surrenders the Monroe doctrine; that permits a foreign tribunal to determine our domestic poli- cies; that pledges the nation to a permanent policy of free trade; that submits to an exchange of trade secrets with all other nations; that permits Great Britain to wield six votes in the determination ef an international problem while the United States has 2 but one; that agrees to abide by all these and the many other assaults upon our independence con- 2 tained in the notorivus covenant.

The sheriff Shas the bride and groom under arrest, pinched Sthem under the Kentucky statute which says, “A zman shall not marry the mother of his wife.” Thornton inquires of the court, “How come?” | *was divorced from my present wife’s daughter long ‘since, upon statutory grounds. The joke is on the Slaw. She is not my wife’s mother, she is my wife. * The court is plainly embarrassed, and would ‘like to rid the record of the case, but can figure *out no plan that seems just proper and legal. To «go ahead and prosecute Thornton seems unjust to sthe court in the face of the defense he sets up. So the court has the matter under advisement. . Whenever Thornton calls around to inquire the status of the prosecution against him, the court is 44s to himself under his latest matrimtonial venture, -_—— }ant in an attempt to figure out what relation he he is. inclined to let it go at that, ; The community has eat bs a divided on | the subject, the women haye very generally. given approval and ore the interruption of the honey- moon, while thé men rather stand in awe of Thornton's nerye and incline to the belief that it ought to be employed to better purpose.

TAX ON TURNOVER: France, like all the other allies in the late war, and she was one of the heaviest sufferers, financial- ly, is adopting every new measure for increasing her national revenue that shows merit. Her latest venture is in what is termed “the tax on iurnoyer.” It is producing satisfactory re- sults, and may possibly furnish an idea to the American congress which will shortly be engaged in a discussion of revenue masures to remove fea- tures now the subject of loud complaint among tax payers. This new French tax takes the form of a levy of | 1-10 per cent on all commercial transactions ing and other categories of business already spe- cially dealt with by stamping fees and other charges), | per cent going to the state and 1-10 of ‘I per cent going to the local authorities. . The tax is levied on every occasion when there is a sale—on the raw material when it is sold to the manufacturer, on the manufactured product when. it passes successively to the manufacturer's agent, to the wholesaler, to the retailes, and again en it is soll to the actual consumer, Special registers have to be kept by all traders setting forth every sale, and these registers form the basis for the collection of the tax. ts defect, economically speaking, is that it inevitably. tends to increase the cost of every commodity to the consumer, as it often involves an addition of 5 per cent or more to the final sale price. The new tax came into operation only two months ago, but already it is producing revenue at the rate of 3,000 million francs a year. As new taxes neyer produce more than 75 per cent of their full yield in their first year, it is expected that by the end of next year the tax on turnover will fur- nish a revenue of about 5,000 million francs a year, even if there is no general increase in the na- tional turnover. BORAH’S PROGRAM. ‘ A complete program for the restoration of peace and the part the United States will take in ternational relations wil! be submitted to the senate carly in the new:session by Senator Borah. Tt will take no notice of the Wilson league of na- tions that is woven into the Versailles treaty, nor of the proposed association of nations favored by Senator Harding. Senator Borah stands unalter- ably opposed to any form of league and asserts his belief that by expansion of the jnternational tribu- igal necessary force to prevent war can best be at- tained. The senator's program is this: 1. Pass the Knox resolution declaring a status of peace with Germany. 2: Declare in favor of recodification and sim- iplification of international Jaws. 3, Expand The Hague tribunal, giving it greater powers in the settlement of disputes he- tween nations, 4. Declare that all territory seized by nations in the peace settlement shall be given back to the countries from which it was appropriated, 5. Provide foy settlement of all disputes by the international ,court without resort to war. FOR RATIONAL ACCOUNTING. It will be remembered that during the Jast ses- sion of congress both houses passed a natio) - get bill which President Wilson vetoed. The bill was reintroduced by Representative Good of lowa in much the same form in which it was originally drafted, but with some amendments designed to meet the president's objections. The amended bill was passed. by the house and is now ing in the senate. It will be up for comsideration in the sen- ate during the coming session. The bill provides that the president shall transmit to ess on the first day of cach regular session an estimate of re- ‘celpts and expenditures, with detailed statistics re- garding the condition of the treasury and showing previous expenditures, for. purpose of comparison. In case estimated revenues are inadequate to meet the estimated expenditures the president must make recommendations for new taxes er loans to meet the deficiency. The bill also provides for the creation of a budget bureau under the control of the president to supdrvise the budget estimates. A general accounting office is also provided for in ‘order to standardize public bookkeeping and #e- ports.
