E CONSCRII OF ALL WAR PROFITS

Group of Senators Plan to Hold Out for 100 Per Cent Profit* Tax.

WASHINGTON, sept, T.—conscripi n n of every dollar of war profits and heavy taxes on all profits will be urged by* the group of senators known as "wealth con *-riptionists" when the ight billioits war tax bill comts before the house.

While Rwresentn live Kitchin, ways and means chairman, today cefended the house bill's excess profits tax provision. the wealth conscription senator sewer planning their campaign for •a 100 per cent war profits tax.

They agree with Secretary McAdoo that the xcesa profits tax plan of the house bill Is unsound and unjust. So that thpy will not be disorganized and 'divided as they were on the last Tax bill, they are organizing now, and carefully mapping out their campaign.

No War Profit Is Slogan. Tt» fundamental principle on which •they will base their attack Is that no

American should profit a dollar's worth out of the war, while other Americans are giving up business, family and life for the safety of the nation. They are .massing fljrures to show that their plan "will produce more revenue than the Ibouse bill, which provides tor

cess profits and a war profits tax, the heavier of the two to be levied in every

1oaee

where either would apply. McAdoo's opposition to the excess .profits scheme has given the wealth K:on»criptionistn hop* that he will favor and back their plan. They already fha-vw been assured of support by some •senators who last year were extremely I "hostile to them.

To Lessen Taxea.

They will point out that with exipetulitinres piling, end & greatly in-(-oreased army to support, the governjrnifmt. should not ag iin let war profits wet by, as they claim it did in levying the profits tax imposed in last year's "hill. The people generally, they will say, mast be left as free of taxes as

Twwsible. that they may be able to buy bond« and other war securities. It became more evident today that fthe sc-ruite finance committee, as a whole, does not favor the house plan taxing profits, and that some radical change will be made In the house "bill. This further encouraged the wealth eonacriptionists.

rhi

The senate committee will continue tfts hearings nert week, while the house [-will be-gin general discussion o£ the "bill.

SOME MOUTH!

Here is a case of misplaced generos Ity. The guilty party meant well, bat her manner of showing it wasn't what you rmght call tactful. It was at a bridge party—one of the porch kind— and ice cream and wafers were served. "Miss Ghoans," urgrd the hostess "do hav« some more ice cream," "No, really I"— "Oh, don't refuse, or I'll think you don't like it." "Well, if you'll Just giro me a mouthful"— "Ah, that's right. Katie, All Miss Ghoan's plate for her."

Mis?s Ghoans is sensitive about her generous mouth, and she was so angry that she telephoned to us about it with the request that we put it in the paper.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Dear Brother in Christ— How are you and the rest of your folks? I am well and am enjoying myself the best I can. I received your letter some time ago with the stamps and wish to thank you for them. I also got a card from Iva, but have been so busy the last few weeks I haven't written hardly anywhere, but home. No doubt you will be surprised when vou find that I am on my way to the front. When you get this letter I will be almost to the coast on my great journev towards the lighting line, or as I think of it sometimes as the great altar where we present ourselves a living sacrifice for (rod and those we love. Brother Syester, you may not think we do this freely, but we go with as free hearts as the water in the brook. We can hardly wait until the train pulls in in the morning to take us, knowing as we do the pain and suffering we will have to go through. We know we have a Just

cause.

and realize that if God is with

us who can be against us, or dare step in our path? This is a great comfort to me. Brother Syester, the Lord is surely with me, for in my prayers I have realised His sacred presence as 1 never have before. It

makes me feel like shouting for Joy and when I am homesick or feeling downcast I always find rest, consolraent and Joy in prayer. A feeling comes over me that makes me weep for Joy, and I know He still abides with me. I am living just as near a Christian life as I ever did, and a little bit more, but it is hard to do some times. Temptations are everywhere, but of late it seems more easy to turn from it than ever in my life. .1 am going "over the top" with the determination of coming back a better man than I went. God being with me I shall succeed.

The Y. M. C. A. Is doing a wonderful work among the soldiers everywhere. They look after our needs that oor government can't supply. They have comfortable halls and tents where there is rtiusic, entertainments, books and writing materials—also ice water all the time. These are luxuries for a soldier.

I am assigned to the Lincoln division of heavy field artillery and will go Into training on foreign soil some where, either in France or Russia, we don't know which. We will get four or Ave more inoculations and vaccinations for diseases that we will encounter on the battle field before we leave this country. This Is a great deal to go through with, especially the one for spinal meningitis.

I am detailed to act as orderly for the car 1 ride in to the coast with two guards. I do not know yet what my duties will be, I think it is orderly to the captain to see that his orders are carried out concerning conduct, eta. of the soldiers in the car, also to take orders from one ofTicer to another. I don't expect I will get to write soon again, so don't think I have forgotten you. I will always write when I can. Write as often as you can after I get across* for then is the time I will need

Question and Answer

Customers, when they feel the thickness and softness of Beacon Blankets, surprised to learn that they are cotton, often ask: "Are they as warm as wool The reply may best be taken from the report of the U. S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Standards, Washington, D. C~, made after exacting tests of Beacon Blankets.

We do not wish to convey the impression that Beacon Blankets are more satisfactory than wool blankets under all circumstances, bot they are ranch warmer than wool, weight for weight, as shown by the Government report, in which the 5-lb. wool blanket is 25% heavier than the heaviest of the Beacon Blankets in the test. Even the 2 3-4-lb. Beacon Blanket tests 30% warmer than the 5-lb. wool blankets. The results as shown by the Government report are undoubtedly due to the fact that the Beacon Blankets are much thicker than wool blankets of the same weight and form a better protecting "air cushion."

For use outdoors and where exposed t© rain and snow, wool blankets are, of course, rrmch more satisfactory than cotton, as they do not so readily absorb moisture and become soggy. We believe that this information, especially authentic, is of value to intending purchasers of Beacon Blankets.
