One of the great needs of America will be for public health nursing. The organizations which are engaged in this work, instead of being weakened by loss of membership, should be strengthened to meet the increased demands which will be made upon them. Trained and experienced nurses whn nr new tnkirKr mrfi of women, rhildren and tubercular patients in

their homes and in dispensaries, can do no rrreater work for the country I M

and for humanity than by remaining on their jobs. ; They must not consider themselves slackers ct feel that they are lack- j

ing in patriotism if they stick to their daily round of duties. On the con- a trary, it would be absolutely wrong for them to give up their work and ; H

jump at the first chance which offers lor war service abroad. Somebody has to take care of the women and children while the men are at the front. It is irrational for those who take care of them, and who know and understand their needs, to fly off to sroft other placa and work and leave them at the mercy of inexperienced workers. We all know that war breaks down home conditions. Sickness and poverty follow in its wake and there are a thousand and one ills, which have to be met and overcome. Who can do this better than the public health nurse who belongs to a well-organized group of workers which is able to combat just such conditions? At the beginning of the war it was my first impulse to t!o?e the Vanderbilt dispensary in Paris to women and children and devote it to the care of wounded soldiers. On second thought I realized that would be a mistake just because everybody was doing the same thing. I never regretted following my more mature judgment. In a short time our attendance increased from 115 to 250. I believe we saved any number of the future citizens of France by simply thinking twice and sticking to our original work.

OUR COUNTRY'S VITAL NEED. Men with a quickaned ssnse of national responsibility, who will galvanize into immediate action those who consider this war incidental instead of crucial the better that every phase of it may be vigorously prosecuted regardless of their personal sacrifice.

BREWERY POLITICAL ACTIVITY. Steve Fleming's BerghofI Brewing company of Fort Wayne has rro-J-cted itself into the Gary political campaign through its authorized agent, one Fontus Heintz. Heintz. a Swede of giant stature, formerly chief of police of Gary, yesterday in a dastardly and cowardly manner beat up an employe of THE TIMES with the evident intention of either killing him or maiming him for life. The assault was dastardly because Heintz, premeditatedly, sen one of ie creatures to see that THE TIMES' writer was alone in his office. Getias a satisfactory report, the Eerghoff brewery agent, a ponderous slugrer weighing 250 pounds, invaded the office and. with his mouth- full of oaths, viciously felled with his maul-like fists a man of half his weight, by mushing him repeatedly in the face. Vie assault was cowardly, because the newspaper man, like a soldier, carrying out his orders, in writing the article to which this bully Heinti took objection and which didn't even mention his name, was not the man to whom the Eerghoff brewery agent should have taken his grievance, if he had any.

If the Berghoff Brewing company of Fort Wayne, or its creature Heintz, or any of the hirers of sluggers in Gary, or any of their political associates, or any or the newspapers which defend them and malign this paper, ever imagine for one little old moment that this kind of tactics, or any other kind r tactics, will silence it. they have another guess coming and they had betr disillusion themselves in a hurry. The woods are full of reporters and editors who carry out orders and he Berghoff brewery gang and the Gary steel company Hohenzollerns will indertake a pretty stiff contract to clean up all of them that this paper can ns?.ge. As fast as one is put out of business there will be another to take hia place, and if bully Heintz ever tries again what he tried yesterday, he may find he has bitten off more than he can chew. THE TIMES in its Gary political campaign now proposes to skin some hides and hang them higher than Hamaan, and If there were a row of Poniur Heintzes, back to belly, from Hell Gate io Hessville they can't stop it. What Pontus Berghoff Heintz, and the man who advised him, did yes--f rrtay they will rue to the last day of their lives.

Why was ha permitted to carry automatics into the room with him, and whose fault was it that he was not searched? If it Isn't the practice to search men on trial, wouldn't it be a good time to begin to search them? Are the lives of judges, lawyers, court attaches and spectators worth no more here than they are on the Flanders front? Oh, very well, we just asked, that's all.

CAN PRINT TRUTH A fas? that is of interest to all newspapers was recently decided in the Spencer circuit court. The suit was for libel and was brought by Joseph Dwlhgt Hagaman against the Courier Publishing Company of Evansville. Mr. Ilagaman wanted ten thousand dollars damages because the Evans--. il!e Courier published a news story to the effect that the Calvary Baptist church had revoked his ordination as a minister and had withdrawn the right hand of fellowship. When the newspaper was asked to retract the statement it refused and Hagaman brought suit. The defense set up the truth of ihe article as justification for its publication and in the trial had witnesses who testined as to the truth of all statecmnts. The result was that the jury debated but a short time and returned a verdict for the defendant. There are too many people desiring to keep their names out of print, and the finding of the Spencer court ill aid the newspapers greatly in giving news to the public. Newspapers are not instruments for ruining the character or reputation of a single person. Their duty lies solely with the public in general. The newspaper is not printed for the information of one person, but for thousands of people. If the article Ir for the welfare of the thousands of readers

although it is embarrassing to one person, it is printed. Washington Demo

Our cotton output is more than half the world's supply. Our coal production of nearly a billion tons is twice that of Great Britain. cAir nearest competitor. Our oil production of nearly SOO.OOO.ooo barrels is twice that of Russia, which ranks second. Out output of Iron and steel is twice that of Germany, our nearest rival.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. Flana for a simplification of the nelectlve army machinery were decided upon at a conference tonight between Secretary of War Baker and Provost Marshal General Crowder. The plans will be fully worked out and communicated tS the 4,500 local boards throughout the country before ..,,. ... are taken to examine

tre 7 000.000 registrants remaining after the first levy of 6S7.000 was selected. Wtails of the changes in draft regulations to be made were not given out by Secretary Baker. The frincipal change is understood, however, to be the elimination of men clearly entitled to exemption before they are subjected to physical examination. All Gtwe Phyalcal Test. For instance, when the firyt conscript levy was made, all the registrants were called in order and subjected to physical examination. They were then permitted to file a.nd prove up claims for exemption. The result of the first call wa that 3.000.000 registrants were given phyei-

ral examinations to get esi.oitu men.

although it was apparent that many examined would never be called to serve. Before the remaining 7.000,000 are examined It la understood to be the plan to have local boards question men and take testimony as to their claims for exemption as a first step. The weeding-out process can be carried on In this way before and not after the boards' physicians have gone to the trouble of conducting an extended medical exan nation. Crowder Hii Free Hand. Secretary Baker said the action' of congress in giving the provost marshal general an appropriation of H.000.000. without restrictions as to its expenditure, authorised the department to proceed immediately with the temaining examinations, lie indicated that the. examinations would, begin soon, but he not prepared to set a date. No decision has been reached. Secretary Baker said, as to the date for calling out the second 500.000 selected men.

must file inventories of taxable goods :

in their hands, with the collector of internal revenue not later than October 16. and they must pay taxes on such goods not later than thirty days after October 4. Among the taxed commodities are whisky, in excess of fifty gallons, tobacco and enuff. in excess of 100 pounds, cifrars in excess of 1.000. and cigarettes in excess of 1,000.. All dealers, wholesale or retail, are affected by these taxes. Inventories bj Wbolaaalars. Wholesale dealers in automobiles, cosmetics, perfumeries, musical instruments, etc.. also must file inventories of their stocks of goods on hand, and

they, too, must have their inventories in the hnnds of the collector of internal revenue not later than October 16. and must pay the taxes not later than thirty days after October 4. Some of the wholesale dealers in these articles evi

dently are not aware that the law af

fects them. After the taxes have been collected on the stocks now in the hands of dealers, the dealers will not be bothered further, it is understood. Ilrcafler. taxes will be collected from the manufacturers, who, of course, will pass therrj down the line to the wholesalers, the retailer, and. ultimately, in probably the greater measure, to the consumer. But the dealer will be relieved of the bother of attending to the tax: payments. As to LTy on Incomes. The revenue office is not concerned especial- at this time with the new income taxes and the like. They will be handled after the beginning of the newyear. The payments will be for the calendar year of 1?17. but the returns will not be made until between January

1 and March 1. 13 IS. However, when that time comes there will he a tre-
