ADVOCATES NEW TAX Object of Passage of Law Is to Increase Budget Buenos Alres, Argentina, Feb. 2.— A five per cent. ad valorem tax on all produce exported ‘from the Argentine is proposed by the new radical gov- | ernment in one of several important measures which congress will consid- | ar In the extraordinary session just convened. The object of the bill is to obtain money for road-building and seed-purchasing in the iInterests of the agriculturalists’in many parts of the country. If passed, the law would become effective immediately, and its provisions terminate on March 31, 1918. It 1s estimated that the tax by that ttme would have netted $50,000,- 000 paper. A colonization bill is another of the new government's proposals: itention of congress is called to fact that primitive and inadequate ag- ricultural methods are widely in the Argentine, and it asked to approve of the establishment of colonies in various parts of country by the sale of goyernment lands on easy terms and by the loan off money to enable the colonist to equip and run his farm during the first season. The proposed law modelled on one in force in New _Zealand. A third measure proposed is the authorization of a bond issue of $100,- 000,000 paper, the proceeds of which —would be employed in exploiting the resources of the country, particularly by~the establishment of an agricul- turalist’s bank and the development of & national mercantile marine; and the exploitation of the petroleum wells at Comodoro Rivadavia. The budget, and a proposal for a Joan of $250,000,000 gold, in order to " cover various short-time loans which the Argentine has contracted during the last two years, conclude the gov- ernment’s program, which is regarded as particularly interesting since it is — + BAD BREATH Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets Get at . the Cause and Remove It Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the sub- stitute for calomel, act gently on the bowels and positively do the work.

A lot of men hung around the tent and read the recruiting appeals and talked to, the patriotic women, but few of them joined the army. The men just didn't seem enthusiastic over promising to carry a gun for Uncle Sam, although the women worked hard to induce desirable look- | i ing young men to sign. The idea back of the tent was that, as English women had aroused some men of London into enlisting, the same thing might work in New York. But it didn’t. ‘“We didn’t do anything wonderful,” said Mrs. Gregory, “but( all the same T think it is a good idea. I think that if women were to establish such re- cruiting stations all over the city it would have a good result upon the recruiting in New York.” the first time that the radical party has had a chance to come forward with its legislation. - Even now the opposition _parties really control the senate and the chamber of deputies, and the radicals will find it necessary to obtain the support of one of the other parties.
