BRUCE DENTIST CARNEGIE ENDOWMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL PEACE. The undersigned have been asso ciated for some years in the execu tion of a trust to promote interna tional peace and our duties have in volved a continual survey of the ef forts to that end throughout the world. We wish to say to all friends of peace that the dreadful war now ruging affords no just cause for dis couragement, no discredit to past ef forts, and no reason to doubt that still greater efforts in the future may bu effective and useful. The war itself is teaching the gos pel of pnuc? through a lesson a<? shojcktng and so terrible .tyia't the most indifferent can not fail to at tend and understand it. Not only have the destruction of life, the devastation and the suffer ing in the warring countries passed all experience, but 'the cessation of production, the closing or markets, the blocking of tr .df> routes, the in terruption of exchanges, have af fected industry and caused ruin and poverty in all the peaceful countries of the world; The universal interdependence of nations has been demonstrated and the truth forced upon every mind that the peace of all nations is the vital concern of every nation. To cast our weak protest now among the' tremendous/ forces that are urging vm the great conflct would be futile; but the end of this war will come before long and then the great question will stand for answer: Shall the lesson be forgotten; tbe sacrifice lost? That question th? bell g?rent 'na tions only will have the cover to answer; but every one in tbe world will be entitled to be heard upon It, for it wll> be a question of civiliza tion, the most momentous of our era. It seems incredible that after this the stricken people will set their feet in the same old paths of policy and suspicion which must lead .hem again to the same result. ' Finding ?spressiottiithrough a great multitude of voices, everywhere the general public opionion x>f mankind should influence Che minds o' the negotiators who settle the term*, of peace and Inspire them to a new de parture in the establishment of Jus tice as the rule of international re lation's. While we must not be overconfi dent of our Individual qualiQcatrono to point out the detailed methods through which the result may be ac complished, we may - still advocate measures which seem practicable and appropriate to the purpose. We can see that definite rules of national conduct should be agreed upon; that a court of competent jur isdiction should be established to judgo of national conformity to those rules; and that, new sanctions should be' provided to compel respect for the Judgments rendered. Above all the motive and spirit or the aew institutions should be clearly and fully, not the promotion of am bition or tbe extension of power, but the safeguarding of human rights and , the perfection of individual liberty. Toward this high end the courage and hope' and conviction of the humblest citizen of the most distant land may contribute. Joseph H. Choate Andrew D. WhiU J?hn W. Fostev Eli.? i Root i Luke E.

When farm products are held for favorable products, the decision says, no deduction on account of shrinkage in weight or physical value or losses by detieration will be allow ed. Cost of stock purchased for re sale is an allowable deduction, but that of stock for breeding purposes is regarded as capital invested and not as an allowable deduction, ex cept when such stock dies of disease or Is destroyed without preparation by order of State or federal authorities. Cost of tools may be deducted, but not that of farm machinery. "A reasonable allowance for de preciation," will bo allowed on farm buildings, other than the owners dwelling, on farm machinery and oth er physical property. A person cultivating or operating n farm for recreation or pleasure on a basis other than the recognized principles of commercial farming, the rcKult of which is a continual loss from year to year," the decision adds, "Is not regarded as a farmer. In such cases, if the expense occurred in con nection with the farm are in excess of the receipts therefrom, the entire receipts from sale or products may be ignored in rendering a return of in conic; and the expenses incurred be ing regarded.as personal expenses will not constitute allowable deductions in the return of income derived from other sources."
