To assume j that there will be normal sup plies of sugar, cream, milk, ice and other materials used in! this industry, or that the weak-1 Iness of human nature can bej counted upon, is tc? build hopes! !upon an absolutely false basis.

It is a heavy sum to pay and falls due at a poor time of the year for agricultural regi ons. It would be easier for farming sections to meet the federal payments in the fall. THE FIGHTING WILL THICK BE c1 HERE are unmistakable! signs that the' decisive battles of the war will be : fought this year upon the western froht. The German warlords have promised their i people a victorious offensive in : the west. They know theyj must get that victory within the next six months or they! will not get it at all. Tremen-! dous attacks may be anticipate ed soon. The Teutons mayj make some headway. They may be held as by a stone wall, i Time will tell. That the allies; will be able to hold against the Hindenburg attacks is confi- dently felt by our generals and I there seems good ground fori J the belief. If they do it will be ' (but a matter' of weeks or! (months until they will do more Ithin hold the foe. With new arriving constantly ; from America the allies will be There are many who believe.! i . i tforces Liidu tx i w u pi,y mem pi ail t-n- u i liable to sweep forward against y"J?7lWllj? foe. When they do that .Oregon. Let the taxpayer pay half of his tax in June and the remaining half in the fall. - It would be a popular move and a logical one should the gov ernment by regulation extend until fall the payment of half the rricrhey to be due on federal ta,xes this year. TIGHTENING THE BELT ya HE following is suggest ed by the federal food administration and the predictions made are therefore based on knowledge of what the administration plans for the coming- summer : j i rrom now unui nexi narvesi the world will tighten its belt. The allied countries in Eu rope Will do it as a matter of 'grim necessity, and we Amer icans will do it as a moral ob ligation. If all the food in the allied countries and North America were brought together now it would come decidedly short of feeding the nations on a peace time basis. We have the balance of the Prussian promise of victory upon which alone now rests the stability of their empire will be broken and the German ; people will know that the iHn denburg promise cannot be fulfilled. . It is then-the kaiser, will have real trouble with his-; subjects. Apeople do not re-: volt against'a successful gov ernment but they will rpse against a government that : brings upon them defeat and ! death when victory and peace; were promised. In the meantime the duty of i the allies is to see that no stone is left unturned. The fighting is going to be thick and Amer ica will be called upon to save the day. Every energy abroad : and at home should be bent to that purpose. GEORGETTE CREPE $1.49 .
