As must bo expected, there ls wide- spread interest throughout the coun- toy in the action which will be takan by congress in regard to the revenue bill now before it. In the house ther. was approved the bill calling for § 800,000,000 in war taxes, whereby ai- most everything imaginable was in- cluded. The measure was drawn with the idea of getting the money. In some cases full consideration was given to the wisdom of the levy, but in others it was not, as has been dem- onstrated by the protests which have been presented by those affected, showing as they did the injustice of the plan which would require certain of those to be taxed to pay more un- der the provisions of the act than they actually received as profit in a year. The faults in the measure are be- ing brought to light in the senate, where it Is even claimed that the country does not need as much reve- | nue as the bill which came to it from the house would provide. The senate is endeavoring to get the revenue bill's provisions on a basis where they will be equitable for all. There is no need for the imposition of oppressive taxes. Such in fact is not almed at, even though according to the house bill such would result in actual opera- tion. _ This while it may seem that the senate s takinz a contrary course to that of the house, it must be appre- ciated that it is endeavoring to deal with ths matter justly. It is impor- tant that a certain amount of the ex- pense of the war should be raised each year. The pcople of today are willing and anxious to do thelr part and they of course look for fair treat- ment and wise distribution in the as- sessment. That of course is some- thing which shouid prevail at all tim. but particularly now when the burden is heavier. DRIVING SPAIN TO WAR. Possibly the Spanish are so consti- tuted that they can continue to accept the sinking of their ships by Ger- man submarines and do nmothing more than enter protests and make de- mands for reparation, but such will be a surprising revelation if it is true. Yet such is the ‘mpression that Spain will be creating in the minds of other nations i It continues to hold to its polley of neutrality gter the gross abuse of its rights an® repeated dis- regard for the promises which have been made to it. A number of Spanish ships have been sunk by the underwater boats without warning and without Justifi- cation. Spain has protested, but de- spite the apparently friendly attitude of Germany and its proclaimed desire to ‘retain amicable relation with Spain, the Spanish ships continue to %o down. It was only recently that 2 change was made in the cabinet, maintaining neutrality, but with the continued determination of Germany to sink all ships, whether belligerent or neutral, the members thereof must have come to the realization that they have no easy task. After all that has been sald and done by the Spanish government, the people of that country are now con- fronted with the sinking of the steam- er C. de Eizaguirre with the loss of 133 lives, accompanied by the an- nouncement that the Besona had also been sent to the bottom. This of course can only bo looked upon as adding Insult to injury. It is quite plain that Germany does not intend to pay any attentlon to Spain's protest and it remains to be seen whether that country is going to accept it pas- sively or show its resentment by tak- ing steps to protect its rights, the lives of its people and its shipping Germany is_taking no steps to pre- vent such a move. HELPING THE TRANSRORTATION PROBLEM. ‘When the announcement is made by the Boston and Maine railroad that there wiil be neariy 400, passenger trains discontinued, it calis attentirn to the problem which the raflroads of the country are facing in handling the transportation question. Tremendous demands are Dbeing meade upon the transportation systems. The demands are of course abnormal, they do not represent a regular d&evelopment, but come with a suddenness which makes it impossible for the roads to obtain the necessary equipment at once to handle them. Tt is important that the various sec- tions of the country should receive the proper supply of coal. Such can- not be donme if the rolling stoeck is be- ing utilized for other purposes and if it 1s not rewived there is a serlous handicap pla®a} wpon the manufac- turingz establivhravats as well as the individual, It is important also that every en- deavor should ‘be made to see that there is adequate distribution food- stuffs Bverything suffers if that does not flow in steady volume sufficient to meet the requirements. And it is equally important that there should be the proper facilities for the transportation of material for turning out war orders, for the con- vlying of finished product from ome section to another which is required in adding the necessary equipment for army and navy, while there must al- so be proper attention devoted to the transportation of troops and the im- mediate supplies which they require. The railroads of the country are hard pressed to meet all the require ments. It is necessary that _thcre should be full cooperation. Frelght congestion makes it necessary to cur- tail the .passenger service and the Roston and Maine will not be the only road which will have to cut off some of such trains. A change in that ser- vice will couse some little protest but it can he more easily met than the problems which go with a freight tle- up. THE ITALIAN COMMISSION. The same sort of a welcome is be- ing extended to tho visiting Italian commission that was accorded to those from France and : Headed by the prince of Udine, those representatives of Ttaly, the third commission of its kind to reach this country since the United States de- clared itself in a state of war with Germany, are here for the purpose of discussing the varlous phases of war cooperation with the leaders in this count It ha been shown that this coun- try can do much in the way of assist- Ing the ententc powers. It can not only aid materially in providing funds for carrying on the conflict but it can furnish engineers, send its army and navy to help and keep up the steady flow of supplies which are nesded in the way of foodstuffs and cquipment. Ttaly is of course in as much need of sucl things, barring possibly the army an@ ®Avy, as are the other nations. Thiw country will therefore be ssked by this commission to consider its re- quirements and, as in the case of the others, there is every reason to be- lieve that it will not appeal In vain. The , commission brings evidence of the cordial relationships which are existing between the nations. Tt gives assurance not only for the present but for the future, and at no time could Italy set forth its needs, or point out the part that it is playing, with bet- ter results than right now while it is in the midst of the big drive for the capture of Trieste. The commissioners of course bring the pledge of loyalty on the part of Ttaly in the common cause and as the result of their coming there will be a better understanding between the na- tions as to their plans and policles.

Mr. Editor: Your editorial about liquor advertisements is noted with gratification. Certainly all your swb- scribers believe that The Bulletin is a law-abiding newspaper, and you are quite right in intimating that the newspapers can get along yery well without such advertisements. But do you not think it an oppor- tune time for The Builetin to declare for national prohibition? Would you not be on solid ground ™ doing so? Has it not been proven beyond ques- tion, in the experience of men, that no one can use alcohol as a drink to any considerable extent without dam- age to his eatire being? Is it not true that you cannot find one singie place, whether high-toned ealoon or low dive, even hotel or club, where alcohol is dispensed as a drink which does not do far more harm than good? Can The Bulletin answer these ques- tions in any other way than to say “Yes?" Ana if “Yes,” how can the alcoholic drink traffic be upheld by any honest and_sincere newspaper? Is not this traffic, because damaging to any and all who drink considerably, and be- causc therefore damaging to the gen- eral welfare, which our government proclaims as its first concern—is not this trafic plainly an un-American in- stitution, with absolutely no proper legal or constitutional standing under the American flag, when once the issue is really joined? I would respectfully ask The Bulle- tin to_consider these questions. Sincerely yours, ALLEN New Haven, Conn. Syria and Armenia Need Relief. Mr. Fditor: Thousands of women and chidren are starving and relief work seriously hampered by a persist- ent but absolute erroneous press re- port stating that “since the severance of diplomatic relations between the United States and Turkey, large amounts of money contributed in tils country for the relief of destitute Syrians and ‘Armenians have remained in the treasuries of the socleties rais- ing the funds, because there was no medium through which to transmit them.” The statement is doubtless well tn- tended but is decidedly false and lia- ble to do great harm to the hundreds of thousands of destitute people, many of whom are starving and to whom the American committee for Armenian and Syrian relief is sending without bin- drance every dollar of money that can Dbe_secured. This American committee for Ar- menian and Syrian relief is the only committer ministering general relief in this area. They have at no time, either hefore or since the severance of diplomatic relations, had the siightest difficulty In tranemitting funds or in administering them through responsi- ble consuls, ex-consuls, American mis- sionaries and other reliable neutral agents, more than 100 of whom are at this mement serving in relief adminis- tration without one cent of expense for salary or compensation from relief funds. : Far from having money “remain in the treasuries of the societies raising funds.” the treasury is at this moment $40,000 overdrawn for the simple rea- son that the committee could not have the heart to turn a deaf ear to the repeated cables begging for food with which to feed the starving. ‘As to the possibility of getting funds to the Turkish empire, there are three absolutely distinct and safe neutral channels open to the committee, through any one lof which they can transmit any amount of money to re- sponsible administrators in the needy sections of the empirc where destitute refugees are gathered and the method of transmission is such that there is no possibility of loss or diversion of the money.

HOME GARDENS Compost. “Let me suggest that every one Who creates or cultivates a garden helps, and greatly. to solve the prob- lem of the feeding of the nations.’ President Wilson.

Menin—"New of the deportation of the whole civil popuiation of the Hel- gian city of Menin by the Germans brings into the focus of worid inter- est a community which is strangely connected with the inception of ihe worid war,” says a war geography bulletin issued by the National Geo- graphic Soclety. t is barely possible that had there been no Menin there might have been no world war, for it was at the slege overian army officer, Scharnhorst, won his first distinction. Subsequently he Tote a military paper on the escape of the Menin garrison and this brought him to the aftention of staff officers of various German staies and he was | offered several commissions. He ac- cepted service under the king of Prus- sia and from this time dates the be- ginning of activities that eventually resulted in the establishment of the present-day Prussian miitary system, which was the genesis of the holo- caust of nations. It was Scharnhorst, the hero of Menin, who induced his sovereign to put aside the Prussian professional long-service army which had been shattered at the battle of Jena and to inaugurate the policy of universal service. This was not or- dered, however, untll after the origi- nator's death from a wound inflicted at_the baitle of Lutzen in 1813. “Menin is, or was, a_prosperous lit- tle town of 20,000 Inhabitants engaged in the menufacture of lace, cotton goods, and tobacco.
