MAKE FAVORABLE REPORT OF WAR REVENUE BILL Report Shows Heavy Tax on Luxuries and War Profits Big Incomes Hit. WASHINGTON. Sept. 3. Under the new war revenue bill, favorably reported to the House today by the ways and means committee, the American people will pay In taxes approximately $8,012,792,000 of this year's estimated war expenditure of $24,000,000,000. The remainder, of nearly $16,000,000,000 will be left to posterity in the form of bonds. Most taxes provided In present revenue measures were sumstantially Increased and new Items were added, including many luxuries and a war profits tax recommended by President Wilson. Nearly $5,500,000,000 of the taxes will come from excess and war profits and individual and corporation incomes. The committee left no stone unturned In its effort to seek out all incomes for taxation and even persons below the legal age of 21 years whose Incomes this year exceeds the exemptions of $1,000 for single persons and $2,000 for married persons must make returns. With the enormous Increases in salaries in certain lines since the war began and the demand for workers even below the legal age, members of the committee are satisfied that a large yield will come from salaries of persons under 21, both men and women. ' In presenting the bill, Chairman iKitchln read a detailed committee re

port explaining each section of the bill and also the general policy of the committee in framing the measure and the reasons for accepting for this year, at least. Secretary McAdoo's (recommendations that one-third of the (War cost be met with taxation. No fixed policy along this line could be made, the committee said, because of changing ccndltions from year to year. Water Power Bill Up. An amendment to the administration water power bill providing for government ownership of plants holding federal leases was before the House today when consideration of the measure was resumed. The amendment, offered by Representative Sims, of Tennessee, chairman of the special water power committee, provides that private corporations shall pay to the government fees based on the capacity of their plants and when these with the interest shall total the value of the project exclusive of transmission lines and distributing plants the total shall be paid to the holders of the lenses and title to the property, not including facilities shall be vested in the federal government. i The amendment proposes that the annual charge shall be based on horse power capacity, beginning at fifty cents per one hundred horse power for the first ten years and increasing until the fee amounts to two dollars a horse power. WILL REPAIR 34 MILES OF ROAD Thirty-four miles of roads are to be repaired this fall by Wayne township alone, exclusive of city and of county repairs. Work has been begun, but owing to the weather, no great progress has been made. September 25, 26, 27 ! Capt. Archie Roosevelt Home; Arm Paralyzed AN ATLANTIC PORT, Sept. 3. Capt.

They crowd eagerly in, the unfortunate ones outside, just as hungry, just as deserving, but who cannot prove that their relatives are at the front, or that there is illness in the family, are shut out. Even with all you are doing, many are left hungry. American beef, American rice, and American condensed milk, are piled high on the tables.

One of the Red Cross delegates holds out her hands, and everyone is breathless whiia the young man walks the distance of five feet, alone, for the first timu in his life of four years! (Alone? No not exactly, YOU had him by the hand, although the others coulJ not see.) And now we are in France. '- You know what the war news la. A German advance is told of in a few words in the newspapers. But in actual life it means not only the operations at the front and their reactions upon the relatives of the men engaged but it means, to multitudes of French people, DEVASTATION. Were you ever "burnt out?" What was th? first thing that your friends and neighbors did for you? They FED you. France has been burnt out. Not only are you her neighbor, but you are her acknowledged friend. And you are feeding her. When the German thrust of last March forced the Franco-British retirement 'along the Somme and the Oise, scores of thousands of the French were made homeless. They choked the roads leading westward from St. Quentin, Noyon, Montdidier and other towns. Just picture the people in your town turned out neck and crop with their household goods on their backs and you will know how they looked. Walk for twenty miles with your heart broken, and your stomach empty, and you will know how they felt. How were they kept alive? By food. And where did they get th-? food? From Red Cross canteens, established all along the weary Calvary. And where d!1 the food come from? From YOU, from your kitchen. From YOU. CAnd was It YOU who whispered "What's the use?"

'Bad Boys" Are Now Utilizing ' Surplus Energy to Help Whip Kaiser

CHICAGO, Sept. 3. Boys who poured molasses on the cat at the age of two years .smashed window panes and chewed tobacco at ' four, and stood before the yawning gates of reformatories at fifteen ,are among the hundred employed in war industries in and around Chicago and in the harvest fields of the Northwest. The Boys' Brotherhood Republic, an organization devoted to the welfare of delinquent and friendless boys, has placed as many as thirteen hundred youths in jobs in a single day and many of these wards have recently entered war industries with the vim that brings about production records. All offices of the organization, which was founded in 1914 by Jack Robbins of Chicago, are held by boys, who are elected, the same as cityjofficials, to the offices of mayor, city clerk, chief of police and prosecuting attorney. There is a board of education, a social committee, an athletic committee and investigating committees. Plans are being completed for extending the organization to all parts of America, one o"f the chief aims being to provide aid to young boys who have been left in stringent circumstances through older members of their families entering military service. Members are assessed fifteen cents a month and those who obtain jobs through the society are under pledge to find work for at least one other member. "Bisides the boys who have taken up work in the factories, some three hundred lads recently have been sent to the harvest fields," said Mr. Robbins. "Salaries in munition plants are high and many of the boys are building up substantial bank accounts. One of our members who is only 17 years old has been getting $6.50 a day in addition to overtime that has sent his salary as high as $60 a week. Another juuiiB uU, ,cpu ""T salary is $34 a week. All of our boy3 engaged in war work are getting splendid results." Part of the membership is made up of boys who are parolled to organization from reform schools and other institutions. "When the terms, of the boys expire in these houses of correction a considerable number of them are without friends and without jobs. We make a special effort to recruit these lads and lead them until they are able to walk alone," said Mr. Robbins. As an indication of the efficiency of the Boys' Republic, the case of the "Meanest Boy of New York State" is pointed out by officers. This boy, whose home was in Brooklyn, had been sentenced to be executed. A comA DAGGER IN THE BACK That's the woman's dread when she gets up in the morning to start the flay s work.
