New York.—The loss of his left arm and left leg did not prevent Ludger Gagne, Jr., of 20 Wesland avenue, Boston, from being an expert swimmer or from saving Miss Louise King of 25 Salem street, Winchester, Mass., from drowning at Revere Beach last summer and eventually winning her for his bride. When twelve years old, just half his present age, Gagne's swimming and diving records were considered marvelous. Then he fell beneath the wheels of a train and lost a leg and an arm. After his wounds had healed and although Boston harbor was full of whitecaps and storm signals were set he swam without trouble to Boston light, six miles out. Gagne was talking to a life guard at Revere Beach last summer when cries for help came from the water. A girl was struggling a considerable distance from shore. Gagne reached the girl first. She was Miss King. Gagne and Miss King became engaged. Her parents favored the match, but advised the young couple to wait until Louise was twenty-one. They vetoed the suggestion, however, and were married by Deputy City Clerk Cruise in the municipal building chapel, this city. NEBRASKA'S CONVIGTS MAY GO TO THE FRONT They Are to Be Drilled In Tactics by the Warden In the State Penitentiary. Lincoln, Neb.-The state penitentiary is to be turned into a military garrison for a part of each day, and the state's prisoners will become soldiers if necessary. Warden Fenton has decided on military drill for practically all the convicts as soon as sham wooden guns can be made. Prison Secretary O'Connell, a member of the First Nebraska regiment in the Spanish-American war, will be drillmaster in chief. Should the war with Germany reach such a stage as to become a drain on the citizens of the country Warden Fenton believes the younger prison inmates may be called to the front. He says is adopting the military drill as one of preparedness. The warden will himself take the training with his charges, and if the convicts are summoned to war he will offer his services. He is popular with the men, and they say they would want no better leader. Many have expressed their eagerness to enlist—three-quarters of them—the prison authorities say. There are about twenty former soldiers and sailors in the prison, and these are expected to act as aids to Secretary O'Connell in teaching the war game. The warden says he will see to it that the men lack nothing in knowledge. He has issued a call to the three cooks in the prison that they show their patriotism by complying with the request of President Wilson with respect to wasting of food. The penitentiary farm is to be enlarged materially. HOARDING IS UNPATRIOTIC. Boston Man Says Those Who Lay Up Food Are Traitors. Boston.—Henry B. Endicott, executive manager of the Massachusetts committee on public safety, issued a statement asserting that the person who hoarded money and large quantities of provisions for an indefinite period "should be pointed out as a traitor to his country and to his fellow men." "Certainly nothing could be further from patriotism or helpfulness to other people," he said, "than for a set of men who have money and credit to selfishly purchase an unusual amount of supplies for themselves and by so doing inflict upon their less wealthy neighbors the burden of unnecessarily high prices." Durham, N. C. — Vegetable gardens bordering the railroad tracks is a new idea in North Carolina to add to America's food supply in the world war. The Durham and Southern railway, owned principally by the Dukes, wealthy New York tobaccoists, has offered its right of way for planting. It has furthermore offered free seed to encourage the growers. ++++++++++++++++++++ VOL: 33. NO 42 TO STOP WASTE IN ARMY CAMPS War Department Prepares Plans to Enforce the Most Rigid Economy. SOME USE .FOR EVERYTHING Effect of New Plan Is to Turn Into Large Profit What Hitherto Has Been a Very Considerable Expense. Washington.—The war department has taken elaborate and comprehensive precautions to prevent waste in the army cantonments, which will soon contain more than 2,000,000 men, and in the embarkation camps. In the feeding of the mep waste will be minimized through the fact that the food will be prepared under the direction of mess cooks, who will be trained by special courses in army cooking schools. The officers' training camps have not been under the control of the war department so far as the food supplies are concerned, and the waste in those camps has been due to the lack of skilled management in the handling of food. A committee representing the war department and the United States food administration will also assist in dealing with problems of eliminating waste. The food administration has received from the secretary of war an announcement of a thorough-going plan for conserving all the waste material of the National army camps, which will result in salvaging many thousands of dollars. Collecting the Waste. The army's first consideration in planning this work has been the sanitary and hygienic problem. At each cantonment the wastes will be collected and transported to a single "transfer station" under the direction of the sanitary inspector. Through the use of the two-can system, wastes will be tightly enclosed throughout their collection. Sterilized cans will be substituted for the filled cans at the kitchens, the nulsance of disagreeable odors and danger from files being reduced to a minimum. Every step in the process of recclamation and utilization is carefully safeguarded and is under the absolute direction of a sanitary force, each contractor being placed under heavy bonds. At the transfer station, the wastes are turned over to a contractor, who will remove them to a point at least three miles distant from the reservation. There the wastes will be completely sorted. Bottles will be sterilized and sold for commercial use. Tin cans will be baled and the solder, tin and iron reclaimed. Paper, which is estimated about five tons per day, will be baled. Bones will be kept separate and ground for fertilizer. The hides of dead animals will be removed and the carcasses "reduced" for grease and fertilizer. The chief items of waste will be the garbage and the manure. It is estimated that there are 1,200 animals at each cantonment, producing 120 tons of manure per day. At the date of the report the manure from 11 cantonments had been sold for $240,900 annually. Big Saving Through Garbage. The greatest element of saving is through the garbage. This has been sold for an annual price of $446,394.57. The garbage from 13 of the cantonments will be used for feeding swine. It is estimated on the basis of experiments conducted at the Chillicothe cantonment, that the garbage waste from 10 to 15 men will feed one hog and enable it to add to its weight one pound per day. At this rate, the garbage from these 13 cantonments will produce 18,980,000 pounds of pork per year. When not used for feeding, the garbage will be "reduced," that is, cooked at high temperature, the grease extracted, and the remainder ground and used for fertilizer or feeds. By the method of incineration formerly in use, not only would all these valuable waste materials have been destroyed, but it would have cost approximately $700,000 for the installation of incinerator plants and an annual charge of approximately $553,000 for their operation. When we add to this saving the amount annually received by the government from these wastes, the net saving the first year amounts to $1,707,840. The effect of this new plan, therefore, is not only to conserve large quantities of valuable food wastes, fertilizers, etc., but to turn into a large profit what has hitherto been a very considerable expense. Germans Deceive Chinese New York—German propagandists kept the Chinese from knowing the truth about the war for more than a year, said Dr. J. Preston Maxwell, head of the Yungchun Hospital of the English Presbyterian church, Amoy. "They were told that Paris had fallen," he said, "and that England had been invaded by a great army which had London in its grasp. "The climax was the announcement of the German peace terms. Over night the walls of many places were placarded with these terms printed in Chinese characters. They were certainly wonderful terms with Germany getting all the best of it" Food Grown Along Railroads FINDS WEDDING RING LOST FOR SEVEN YEARS Wilmington, Del. — It is not only the proverbial bad penny that frequently turns up, as is proved by the case of a long lost wedding ring. Seven years ago Mrs. Frank Carey of 1802 Gilpin avenue lost her wedding ring in the yard of the house in which she was then living. Recently it was returned to her by the present occupant of the house, who discovered it while planting flowers. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1917. HOW SHALL WE PAY FOR THE WAR? A Constructive Criticism on the House Revenue Bill. LOANS BETTER THAN TAXES Five Reasons Why Excessive Taxes at the Outset of War Are Disadvantageous—Great Britain Example Worthy of Emulation—How the Taxes Should Be Apportioned. By EDWIN R. A. SELIGMAN, McVickar Professor of Political Economy, Columbia University. On May 23, 1917, the House of Representatives passed an act "to provide revenue to defray war expenses and for other purposes." In the original bill as presented by the Committee of Ways and Means, the additional revenue to be derived was estimated at $1,810,420,000. The amendment to the income tax, which was tacked on to the bill during the discussion in the House, was expected to yield another $40,000,000 or $50,000,000. In discussing the House bill, two problems arise: 1. How much should be raised by taxation? II. In what manner should this sum be raised? I. How Much Should Be Raised by Taxation? How was the figure of $1,800,000,000 arrived at? The answer is simple. When the Secretary of the Treasury came to estimate the additional war expenses for the year 1917-18, he calculated that they would amount to some $6,600,000,000, of which $3,000,000,000 was to be allotted to the allies, and $3,600,000,000 was to be utilized for the domestic purposes. Thinking that it would be a fair proposition to divide this latter sum between loans and taxes, he concluded that the amount to be raised by taxes was $1,800,000,000. There are two extreme theories, each of which may be dismissed with acent courtesy. The one is that all war expenditures should be defrayed by loans, and the other is that all war expenditures should be defrayed by taxes. Each theory is untenable. It is indeed true that the burdens of the war should be borne by the present rather than the future generation; but this does not mean that they should be borne by this year's taxation. Meeting all war expenses by taxation makes the taxpayers in one or two years bear the burden of benefits that ought to be distributed at least over a decade within the same generation. In the second place, when expenditures approach the gigantic sums of present-day warfare, the tax-only policy would require more than the total surplus of social income. Were this absolutely necessary, the ensuing havoc in the economic life of the community would have to be endured. But where the disasters are so great and at the same time so unnecessary, the tax-only policy may be declared impracticable. Secretary McAdoo had the right instinct and highly commendable courage in deciding that a substantial portion, at least, of the revenues should be derived from taxation. But when he hit upon the plan of 50-50 per cent., that is, of raising one-half of all domestic war expenditures by taxes, the question arises whether he did not go too far. The relative proportion of loans to taxes is after all a purely business proposition. Not to rely to a large extent on loans at the outset of a war is a mistake. Disadvantages of Excessive Taxes. The disadvantages of excessive taxes at the outset of the war are as follows: 1. Excessive taxes on consumption will cause popular resentment. 2. Excessive taxes on industry will disarrange business, damp enthusiasm and restrict the spirit of enterprise at the very time when the opposite is needed. 3. Excessive taxes on incomes will deplete the surplus available for investments and interfere with the placing of the enormous loans which will be necessary in any event. 4. Excessive taxes on wealth will cause a serious diminution of the incomes which are at present largely drawn upon for the support of educational and philanthropic enterprises. Moreover, these sources of support would be dried up precisely at the time when the need would be greatest. 5. Excessive taxation at the outset of the war will reduce the elasticity available for the increasing demands that are soon to come. Great Britain's Policy. Take Great Britain as an example. During the first year of the war she increased taxes only slightly, in order to keep industries going at top notch. During the second year she raised by new taxes only 9 per cent. of her war expenditures. During the third year she levied by additional taxes (over and above the pre-war level) only slightly more than 17 per cent. of her war expenses. If we should attempt to do as much in the first year of the war as Great Britain did in the third year it would suffice to raise by taxation $1,250,000.00. If, in order to be absolutely on the safe side, it seemed advisable to increase the sum to $1,500,000,000; this should, in our opinion, be the maximum. Defective Page RABBIT SAUSAGE IS LATEST Farmere' Wives in Oklahoma Are Advised to Turn Pest to Good Use. Oklahoma City, Okla—Jack rabbit sausage will be a new delicacy in Oklahoma as a result of the war. In fact a few farmers in the western part of the state last winter found a substitute as palatable as the real article. At a meeting of farmers' wives in Kloka county, Mrs. Ida Gregory, country woman agent, discused the efficacy of canning soy beans. One woman suggested that the beans were hard to raise owing to the raids of rabbits. This objection was quickly discounted by another woman, who exclaimed: "Keep the rabbits away until your beans are a foot high; then get a shotgun and let them come. Last year we had jack rabbit sausage the season through. By mixing a bit of pork the sausage really is better than that made entirely from pork." STEAL MORE CHINESE SEALS Prominent Official of the Republic Disappears With the Presidential Stamp. Peking.—Peking is much agitated over the disappearance of official seals. When President Li Yuan-hung was forced to give up the presidency, Gen-Ting-Kwan, the keeper of the presidential seals, took them to Shanghai. Another prominent official has now disappeared with the seals of the house of representatives. When the attempt at monarchial restoration had been defeated and Premier Tuan Chijul declared the republic had been restored, there was much consternation because of the disappearance of the seals of the republic. Gen. Ting Kwan was arrested in Shanghai, and after a hard legal struggle was brought back to Peking, together with the missing presidential seals, and is to have a hearing before a Chinese court. SCORNED, MAKES SPY CHARGE Widow Proves Undoing of Kampman, Formerly in German Consulate in Chicago. Los Angeles.—A scorned woman and an elderly one at that—proved the undoing of Dr. Maximillian Kampman, aged only twenty-eight, formerly of the German consulate in Chicago, who was arrested here on a presidential warrant as a German spy. At least go declared Dr. A. S. Ash of Los Angeles. "A year and a half ago Doctor Kampman was treating a widow," said Doctor Ash. "He took a great deal of interest in trying to restore her health—so much so that it seemed she became infatuated with him. He tried to wave her aside, but in vain." WORKS FOR LIBERTY LOAN Copyright. Underwood & Underwood A striking example of the value of women in helping America in the great fight is Miss Antoinette Funk, a member of the woman's committee of the council of national defense. The photograph shows her hard at work in her office in the treasury building where she is doing wonderful work in the interests of the Liberty loan. She is executive vice-chairman of the women's Liberty loan committee, of which Mrs. McAdoo is the chairman. She was asked to take the post by Secretary McAdoo because of her powers of logical appeal, her ability as a speaker and her uniting activity in any work connected with the great cause for which America is fighting. Amsterdam—A. Berlin telegram to the Rheinische Westfalsische Zeitung of Essen says that the state of health of the German chancellor, Doctor Michaels, "leaves very much to be deferred."

COLORED TROOPS. — ee ee Woe BO Trained tn States Where Raised, Washington, D. C.—Secretary Baker ‘of the war department has announced that colored troops drafted into’ the United States army will receive the same consideration ‘and ” treatment heretofore given them under the rules fof the ermy. ‘Those colored troops ‘dratted in states having camps. of their own will be trained in’ them, which means that the Ilinois contin. ‘gent of colored troops will train ai Rockford.

An opportunity will ‘be given to both white and colored men among the selected forces to vollinteer for service and training in certain Hines of communication organizations, which is necessary to form, and it is hoped that an adequate number wil volunteer for this military but non- combatant service, but there will be both combatant and noncombatant or ganizations, just as there are white organizations.” ‘Those who volunteer for this ser- vice, it ts said, will have an early op portunity to go to France." Why Did They Prefer “Colored?” (Pisus ths aw Yank Mek We trust that all of the advocates— earned and” otherwise, white and Diack, North and South—ot the use of the word “Negro” as a race term have caught the full meaning of its use at Houston, Texas. At the re quest of the ‘Twenty-fourth Tntantry men, themselves, the authoritios “de elded to refer to them henceforth as “colored” soldiers. They had been de rided and nagged and goaded by the corrupted use of the word until for Dearance. ceased to be one of. thelr virlues. “They had become contemptu: ously and constantly referred to In the dally press not as American. sol: dlers, oF ‘Americana, nor as “Uncle Sam's Boys” or in any other respectful terms. ‘They had been designated and debasea in the public. mind. there— these brave, manly detenders of the American flag—as “Negroes.” Per celving this evil practice and influence the while officers of the Twenty-fourth appealed to the authorities to use the word “colored” instead. With the word “colored,” troopers or solders would have to be used. “A kindlier feeling between the soldiers and the townspeople they were sure would in- evitably result. They were profoundly right, but they were too late, Had the practice obtained prior to thelr coming. in Houston, a different state of affairs might have ensued. We ask all promiscuous, wilful and indifferent users of the word “Nogro” to ponder this situation slowly. ‘The request of the troopers and their offcers for the change should be a striking example to all Doubling Thomases 88 to just how the practice works out today in hard, everyday life. Whatever the ar- gument about making it respectable in the future, it decreases respect for the race today. It does no good today. Tt does much harm. What reason, then, for its use? Are you willing t0 be called a “Nigger?” Are you pleased to, have your wife or mother’ called a“Negress?” Then discontinue ‘using “Negro.” It you think it worth while for you to be referred to as a man and your folk as people, insist on the use or the ‘ord ceolunea™ Worse to Ask for Jim Grow.

(From the Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: T cannot too heartily congratu- late you on a recent editorial discour- aging the use of the word “Negro.” ‘There is no greater delight enjoyed by the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfortunate term. Why? ‘They real ize that it fs the most potential fac- tor at work at the present to bring about both a physical and mental Segrogation of the people of color. Its use is on the increase only because Our speakers and writers, especially Do Bois and Washington feel that Its Fepetition, ad nauseam, is necessary to Fotain the good will ‘of the masses, ‘The term “Negro” is not only absurdly inaccurate as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarm ingly injurious, for the following rea sons: ‘a, IUhas never stood historieally or {in the present, anywhere in the world, for anything noble or uplifting.

No one can be sald to know any class of people who has not been in ‘ntimate and aympathette relation with the best as well aa the worst of the class. We compare many persons who live in the South, and think they know the colored race, with others who have had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and syn: pathetic relations with large numbers of that race whom their Souther, friends have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that the second knew the colored people better than the first. ‘They know asp rations among them that the others do not know, or, knowing, do not enter Into and appreciate: they know capabilities by direct contact with the beat of the race which others are obit vious of: they know qualities which only respect and sympathy can bring out; they Know possibilities to which others by thelr very acquaintance ate blinded.
