Aristocrats Want Heavier Taxes London, March 14. There is a vigorous, growing demand throughout England for higher, much higher, taxes; not so much to raise more money for the war as to compel peo ple to economize. At any rate, this is the way the movement's backers express it. ' The argument is that even a man who can afford to do so, has no right to consume the country's sustenance extravagantly at such a time. It is charged that many of the working classes, whose wages have been great ly inflated by the war, insist on doing it. The "higher taxes" advocates want the government to compel labor to economize. Incidentally, it is pointed out that increased taxation will enable Eng- land to meet more of its war bills as it goes along, instead of saddling them onto prosterity. A heavy tar iff on the necessaries of life is the thing most generally urged. It has been noticed that, rather oddly, this program's supporters are mostly of the aristocratic, capitalistic, conserve ative class. From this fact the fol- lowing conclusion has been drawn and freely expressed by many English men: Workingmen are making so much money at present that their standard of living is much higher than before the war. After the .war there will be a return to old conditions. This will result in bitter discontent and the workers will object to a return to the' old standard. If tho capitalists can make the workingmante taxes so heavy now that his higher pay will d0 him no good, he will not find fault with a subsequent slump, correspond ingly, to lower wages and lower pne es. As for the other argument, these same radicals reason that all the war bills the workers are forced to pay for now will be, by just that much a lighter burden on tho capitalists in the future. Whether this is a social istic argument or not, it is much heard, in England at present.

Special) Ever since Congress began paying attention to tho question of tlhe right of merchant vessels to carry arma ment, the President 'has 'been told, over and over again, that he could not except anything . like a unanimous ! vote in support of the policy which he Was been pursuing. Yet . the Plrosi- dent insisted, with language of the most hectic character, that he must have a whole-hearted endorsement, On one occasion, he is quoted as say ing that if he could not have his- way he would resign hie office.

But a good many people have thought that, in the event of a, Congressional rebuke even in substance the Pres ident might declaire that he would not be a candidate for reelection. Mr. Wilson has smnll stomach for a licking 'such ns he forseos in store for him next Novemlber. He would gladly avoid it if he could. This would be an line with hs re cord. When he was threatened with deposition . from the presidency of Princeton, Mr. Wilson-eagerly under took a candidacy for tho governor ship of New Jersey. He is regard ed us la performer who always uses a net and in this case ho could uti lize a manufactured Congressional crisis" as they say in Europe, to save his face as they say in China. Vice President Miarstholl administ ered a gentle', but none the less point ed refbuke to Senjator Stone, of Mis souri, a fewvdnys ago after the "gum shoo" Senator had repeatedly of fended against the rules of ordinary courtesy. Senator Gore had intro duce a resolution and asked ithat it lie on the table. 1 iSentator Stone im mediately arose and made the Same request, as though tihe request of Selnator Gore needed iky ap- proval. . Immediately . . thereafter Senator Jones of Washington intro duced la resolution, and asked that his resolution elso lie on the table. Immediately Senator . Stone, assum ing the right to dictate, arose and re peated the request that the resolu tion lie on tihe table. "That was the request of the Senator from Wash ington," said Vice President Marshall in ia very firm tone that called to the attention of the entire Senate the superfluousness of Senator Stone's interference. Senator Stone frank ly acknowledged the robuke by say ing, "I beg pardon." "This country will never get back to settled conditions and the (machin ery of tho goveimment - will never run smoothly again until the Republi can plarty once more assumes control" said a Pennsylvania Congressman in the Cloakroom a few days ago. "The Democrats have made a mess of everything they have touched., The party His no policy and no principles and from the President down it is running around like a hen with its head cut off, flopping here and flop ping there. It tolas one policy in Mexico and another in Europe it is lagainst a tariff commission one yeair j ana lor it anouier; n is lor iree su gar one session and for a tariff on sugar another; it has Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde beaten a city block." Fertilizers From Municipal Waste Washington, D. C. March , 16 A survey of the notion's resources in fertilizer materials has drawn at tention to tho la.-ge supply of thr so to be found in the accumulation of gar- 1)(ago in cities. This waste material contains nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and. potash, which are recognized as essential to the production of large OREGON OTJMMM cropst ValuJaMe as these element nire to the farms of the country, the . garbage in wihich they aro found is a ' source of trouble and expense to the cities. It seems,, therefore, that this garbage can be disposed of most ad vantageously by returning it to the -soil in the form of fertilizer. In cities of 100,000 people or more the reduction of garbage by methods which furnish a residue fit for fer tilizer use has proved to be a pro- enterprise, and in self-sustaining. Numerous analy- ses of raw garbage show that, on thev average, grease consitutes 3.5 pen.1 cent; land of the fertilizer ingredi ents potash, .0.3 per cent; bone phos- . phate, 1 per cent; and nitrogen in the form of ammonia, 1 per cent. On this basis the value of a ton of raw ga-r-Uage is about $5, tihe grease 'be ing worth $3 and the fertilizer ingre dients $2.' . ".. .. . 1 Since the grease is of more value t-nan me leranzer, tno irectuation pro1--cess is primarily designed to recover' the grease. There are three princi pal methods of doing this. The gar bage is cooked and steamed and then pressed dry and degreased in gaso line. Or the garbage is dried directly in rotary hot air kilns and then de greased in gasoline; or it is dried land degreased in one operation. As raw garbage contains , 70 per cent water and 3.5 per cent grease, the yield of the tankage residue or fertilizer should be about 25 per cent Thus, 4 tons of raw garbage should be made to yield 1 ton of dried tank age and $12 wortlh' of grease.

Old carriers under civil service- have been drppped far no other reason apparently than to make room for some Democratic workers who have been named without ex amination and who have been allowed' to take an examination some weeks after they had been in the service. The convenience of the patrons has not been considered and how mucH they have been made to suffer with poorer end less adequiate facilities has evidently been of little concern to tihe administration. The House cer tainly showed up what had been done to rural delivery and how the service had been crippled. It is elasy to see jnow why the farmers have been so stirred up." American Oats Contain Steel V London, March 14. Tho war of ficers doclared that cavalry officers examine carefully every bushel of, oats used or feeding horses. Morn ing papers say the order is the result ?0f the discovery that several con signments of oats from the United States contained little pieces of steeV chaped and colored like oats, which aro almost certain to kill horses which swallowed them.
