Senator Watson's Suggestions

The , Chicago New? has the following to say about Senator Watson's, suggestions relative to

the revenue problem:

y' "On the many' recent utterances by influential nemberi of congress respecting the solution of .the -.revenue problem the most sensible are tKbse p Senator, Watson of Indiana,' who appreciated; the 'necessity of immediate action by congress fox relief of the overburdened taxpayer as welt "Saof .letiimate i business struggling with the difficulties of readustment from a war to a peace basis . ; "The Indiana senator advocates repeal of the excess profits taxes, but he does not stop there. He; also favors: a reduction of the present, surtaxes on the large incomes, a proposal which deserves serious consideration from those. who telieve in equity as a basic principle of taxation. I ; "Finally, Senator Watson urges the-extension ; of the time for the payment of the war debt over I a period of 60 years. It is to be hoped that in this, as in the other proposals, he reflects a growing sentiment among congressional -leaders. The treasury department has adhered stubbornly to I its origjnal idea that the war debt ought to be discharged within 25 years. Such a policy would J be -unjust to the taxpayers and detrimental to " business It would prevent any substantial re1 duction 'of the crippfing taxes imposed by the j war revenue law. 2 "A sound policy of national economy and a I due regard for the stability of national industry ; urge the extension of the time for the discharge ! of the war debt over the period suggested."

ception everywhere in the United States. It refers to the enactment of legislation to provide for immediate relief for the men who were disabled in the World war. Congress will not ignore this recommendation, for its members feel that the present system is not giving satisfactory results and are convinced that remedial legislation is heeded at once.

The time that elapses between the filing of a claim for compensation and the final disposition of the case is shamefully long, as a number of

disabled men in And again, the some cases is so the generosity of

One cannot blame the young men whose productive ability has been seriously impeded for objecting to the manner in which their claims are handled. ' They gave generously of their life and its possibilities for the great ideal of democracy, and now, with victory assured, they seemingly are forgotten and their plight is unnoticed. Congress cannot act too soon to remedy this situation. Let it reorganize the department that handles compensation claims, so that red tape is eliminated and service men are rewarded "as they deserve.

The Budget System Undoubtedly congress will act again, on budget legislation. The bill, which President Wilson vetoed because it contained provisions to which he objected, was only the forerunner of legislation that is sure to be enacted within a reasonably short time. It has taken the national legislators a long time to see the advantages of applying to federal

Lbusiness those

tions have been using with success for many years ; but the sincerity of congress on the measure cannot be doubted now. The adoption of a budget system will tend to cut down unnecessary expenses and will enable the government to approach its expenditures from a scientifically sound viewpoint. The confusion of the old system will disappear. No longer will one committee draft revenue measures and another pass on appropriations, without reference to actual facts.

good and kindness is much greater than that for wrong and error and one reason for this is that he gets so much more for good than for evil. The one who does wrong never feels comfortable, whereas the one who does a worthy thing at once is thrilled with the desire to do a better one. I like to think of my angels as very human and loveable. I don't like to think of their wings if they have any. I like to think of them as the invisible figures of my better self the self that is "righteous altogether" vital, strong, gentle, full of understanding, not free to anger, wholly unselfish, clean a working self. Somehow or other, I always get very near to discouraged folks because, I guess, I have been there so many times myself But still more because I fancy that the angels are just a little nearer them than anybody else. And the big business of angels is to inspire! feo let's go on the side of the angels as often as we can. When Lincoln spoke those immortal words "with malice toward none, with charity for all," he walked over and stood on the side of the angels. And every time the business man feels a human soul working with him instead of a mere employe, he too associates with the ideals of angels. We can all be so much better than we are. Let us keep trying! WILSON RECOMMENDS BOUNDARIES OF ARMENIA WASHINGTON, Dec. 9. President Wilson has completed his recommendation with regard to the boundaries of Armenia and has forwarded them to the league of nations in session at Geneva, it was said today at the state department. On the theory that music banishes fatigue, a building contractor once introduced bagpipes to spur his Scottish workmen on. The men worked so speedily that they struck for more money.

In a small town up-state there was not one person who knew how to play the organ at the church. At last a girl who could play just a few, and very few hymns at that, came to the town. One day the preacher asked the organist "Can you play a wedding march for a wedding tomorrow?" The organist replied: "I am very sorry, but I do not know one note of a wedding march." The preacher knew that they must have some kind of music for the wedding, so he said: . "Play the nearest thing to a wedding march that you know." As the bride and bridegroom came down the aisle, "Onward, Christian Soldiers" was the tune that rolled forth from the organ. Monroe School !
