Tilings now are quite different ti
from what they were in years gone ^
by and the laws that suited us then
win no longer do for us now. Changes *
in many laws are needed now.
?o??
No man should have to pay a tax on j
the income of his hands or brain for 1 ^
the year that the fruits of labor I?
come to him; but only on the income'-"
from the investments that he makes b
in the course of his business life, or P
from the savings of his labor. 11
When we beat the Germans it was P
a big thing to do and we expected to n
gain a whole lot from it; but it is a ^
rule of human experience to fail to a
realize, even from the greatest and 0
apparently . most successful efforts, ?
quite as much as was hoped for and
expected. 1 ; s
t . - v
r ?0?
Some farmers are prone to count c
their profits in this country by the <:
low production and high cost of a had
year; and very few of them figure 1
their income on the basis of an aver- 1
age production, for say a period of i
ten years. In their minds this ere- (
ates a wrong idea of the profits '
made from farming and this ideal1
may cause discouragement. A change '
in the way of looking at the matter 1
will bring about a better feeling on *
the part of the farmer as to what he '
is really gaining from his occupation.
o 1 1
INCOME TAX IS WRONG. 1
The federal income tax is wrong in *
one respect and in the course of time
it will be changed. No man or woman
should have to pay one cent upon 1
any income from a profession, nor 1
anything upon wages of any kind, 1
nor upon income which is the product :
of skill; but this income tax should
bo collected and paid only upon the 1
income from investments made by 1
the citizens of the country. For instance
a man is a doctor and from
his hard work he collects in fees this
year two thousand dollars over his
exemptions and allowable expenses.
He should not have to pay any tax on
this. But in past years hq has saved
up five thousand dollars which he has
invested in tenant houses and from
which he collects rents. On these
rents he should have to pay the tax.
~ There is a great, difference in the two
sources of income. The collection of
the t.ax on the dire-d returns of ski!' 1
and labor should never be h.'.mp <1 j
by the imposition of a tax of any ,
kind. l>?t this income tax as well
as all other taxes be levied on the
pioperty the people have from the
results of their savings'and upon the
income from that property. Just as
one would have to pay on his income
from rents just so he would have to
pay on his income from funds loaned
out on interest or invested in any
other way.
VACATION EARNINGS AND
SAVINGS
The school vacation, just about td
begin, is a time of relaxation fdr
both teacher and pupil. But relaxation
does not necessarily mean idleness.
A change in employment, diverting
the mind from one subject to
il - i*i
uiiumcr, uiirn proves more oeneiicial
than so-called complete rest.
The teacher whose pupils find ways
of earning money during the vacation
period will have the realization
that he or she is discharging well the
responsibilities of thrift education.
Knowing the opportunities open to
boys and girls for spare-time employment
and pointing them out to
pupils is part of the thrift education.
If the teacher helps to make
the style thrift and industry, instead
of waste and idleness, there will be
the co-operation of the instinct imitation.
The eagerness with which boys
take newspaper routes, shows how
instinctive it is to be independent. No
amount of effort is too great for the
child :f he is led sympathetically over
u:e rougnest places when ho sees j
the use to which his work is to be I
put. lie wants to be something av.d
to do something. Perhaps he wants
Lo save for a college fund, or for
winter clothes, and he will be anxious
10 earn something during vacation.
In this connection a recent message
to school children by Carter
dlass, Secretary of the Treasury, is
)ort inent.
"I summon you to solve one of
Ymerica's greatest financial probtms:
How to make permanent

Paris, Thursday.?The alterations
ind amendments incorporated by the
Council of Four in the revised treaty
rtakc it a somewhat longer docunent
than the draft originally subn
it ted to the Germans and published
1 the United States. It now coinarises
214 pages, five more than the
original. As at first arranged the
low instrument still contains the
niginal fourteen parts and 440 artilcs.
The article assuring Silesian coal
md minerals to German industry now
cads: "Poland undertakes to permit
'or a period of fifteen years the exportation
to Germany of the products
>f mines in any part of Upper Sileda
transferred to Poland, in aecorlance
tfith the present treaty, with)ut
export duties or restrictions and
icrmit the Germans to purchase
hese products on the same basis as
;hc Poles,
In the revised draft "the principal
Allied and associated powers" undertake
to establish Danzig as a free
ity. This language, in which the
responsibility of the five great pow
r.\s lor me creation 01 me now cuy i
ind state is definitely assumed, is J
-ubstituted for the original phrase- j
ology declaring merely that "Danzig.
is established as a free city."
The new article which replaces the
Diiginal provisions for the disarma-1
ment of Germany, number 105, pro- '
viding for reduction to a specified
point with two months now reads in
the English version:
"Up to the time at which Germany
is admitted as a member of the
League of Nations the German army
shall not possess armament greater
than that fixed in the table submitted
in this treaty" and continues:
"Germany agrees that after she
has become a member of the league,
the annaments fixed by the table
shall remain in force until modified
b/ the council of the league. Furthermore
she hereby agrees strictly
to observe the decisions of the council
in this respect."
Polish Frontier ('hanged.
Important changes are revealed by
a comparison of the old and new
diafts relative to the new Polish fron
tiers and the Silesian plebiscite. The
frontier changes correspond generally
with those outlined in recent dispatches,
but brinp: the Polish frontier
nearer to Brcslauy on the east,
than was at first contemplated, and
tf?ves Poland a new section of the
Prussian province of Pomcrania, in
exchange for the coast strip of th
same province returned to (iermany.
The provisions for a plebiscite n
the Silesian regions show that the
vote will he taken in virtually all of
Upper Silesia except small areas in

Kan the second day of his visit to
Belgium this morning by motoring
to Charleroi with King Albert. The.
king expected to show the American |
executive the destruction wrought oy ;
the. Germans in the mines at Char-j
leroi and supply him with documen-1
tory information of the wholesale
and systematic destruction practiced
bv the Germans.
The President was not accompanied
on the Charleroi visit by Mrs.
Wilson who was somewhat fatigued
after yesterday's trying journey.
A luncheon at the American legion
on the appearance of the President
before the Belgian chamber of deputies
and his reception by Cardinal
Mercier at Maiines, were a few of
the features of today's program.
On stepping out of the place this
morning the President found several
thousand persons assembled there
who clamored for a speech. He resiponded
with his first public speech
which was confined to a few words:
"My friends," said the President,
"in1 coming here personally I have
merely followed my own heart and
the heart of the American people towards
Belgium."
In the palace the President had j
met all the members of the Belgian
cabinet, and Cardinal Mcivier. By
calling first, the cardinal offered a
diplomatic route for the President's
call upon him at Malines today.
The general council of the Belgian
labor party has addressed a message
to TYesident Wilson, in which it says:
"The labor party repudiates any
pea o of violence and awaits the

To Embark for Repatriation
?Where They Are Coming
From.
More than 3,000 interned Germans
are to be repatriated through the
Charleston port of embarkation, ineluding
prisoners and families of
many of them, from various points
in this country. A total of 2,899
prisoners and members of their families
are to come from the following
places:
Fort Douglas, Arizona, 213; Ft.
Oglethorpe, 2,G20, and Ft. McPherson,
(>(>. In addition to these 2,899,
who will come here under the troop
transportation department, there
will be a number of Germans who
are out on parole, several of whom
are here now.
The embarkat'on <>f the prisoners
will be handled at the port terminals
where the luggage of the prisoners
i being stored. It is probable that
the Germans will be transferred < 1 iivct
from trains to ship, and, should
it be found necessary to bold them
for any reason, they will be quartered
at the remount station barracks.
The two transports, Martha Washington,
which came in today, and the
Princess Matoika, which is due June
23, will be used for the purpose of
carrying mo uormans to Rotterdam,
on their way home. The Martha
Washington will sail about June 25
