Guest.) THE FLAG THEY FOLLOWED THERE is particular fitness in the fact that the G. A. R. en campment is in session on Flag Day. The veterans now here followed the colors, not when the nation was united against a foreign foe, but when the country was divided and dis tressed by civil war. It was American against American and at times brother against brother and father against son. It was an unhappy time, more so than we of this generation can real ize. It was a time when a man's patriotism was put to the acid test There were many good people who looked upon this coun try so lightly that they thought it should be divided. They fought for secession. Had those men won out the American re public would have been destroyed and it could have no longer held the torch of freedom aloft. That they did not succeed in tha rebellion was due to the valor of the loyal sons who stood with Lincoln and the "Star Spangled Banner." Hats off to them ! ; t m j HOW COME? IN its report the executive committee of the American Federa tion of Labor recommends that the excess profits tax be re pealed and that a general sales tax be substituted therefor. Certainly this is a remarkable suggestion to come from a la bor organization. The excess profits tax is intended to tax heavily those who make extraordinary profits and it does. There is for instance one Oregon corporation dealing in a stable pro duct, that made a wonderful lot of money in 1920 and this year had to pay an excess profits tax of a cool million. But why should not such a corporation be taxed heavily? Is not the law in direct keeping with the theory that the tax should fall heav iest Upon those most able to meet it? On the other hand a gen eral sales tax would hit a man even though he might be forced to sell his product at an actual loss. The wheat farmer would be taxed on his turnover though he might have to sell his crop at less than the cost of production. Where is there any fairness in that" ultimately the general sales tax would fall upon the consumer, not upon wealth and the net result would be to in crease prices. Does the union labor man want a tax law that will stimulate prices on the things he buys at a time when the level of wages is falling? Meet Milk Sergeant Leonard Tatel, U. 8. A.!

The most notable of these is the acceptance by Germany of tie findings of the reparation commission and the terms of settlement based thereon. ' This has averted the strain and uncertainty that would have resulted from an invasion of Germany by allied troops, and probably will result in a considerable reduction of the standing army of France, besides leading to a quickening of industry in Germany and a more settled feeling in aii Europe. The elections in Italy which took place on May 22d yielded results encouraging to the stable elements of society. Although the coal strike in England has not been settled and the industrial situation is very serious from lack of fuel, the efforts by the rad ical element to make the strike the focus of a revolution have rtterly failed. In this country the railroad labor board has followed up its f ction in releasing the railroads from th'e costly national agree ments with the labor organizations, made while the roads were under government control, with an announcement that prevail ing conditions justified a downward revision of wages, and a decision as to the amount of such reductions in the cases before it would be rendered June 1st, reductions to take effect July 1st. Other complaints are now being filed, and it is assumed that the revision will extend to the entire railroad pay-roll and that it M ill result in a material degree of relief to the railroad situation. The trend of wages has continued slowly downward, the United States Steel Corporation falling into line during the month with a reduction of 20 per cent. In this case and gener jv ly the situation has been accepted by the workers in good spir it as a necessary readjustment to changed conditions. The trend of prices has continued downward, but apparent ly the bottom has been reached with the principal staple com modities. Wheat has had a rise which if sustained will be of material benefit to the farmers, and the other grains have ad vanced slightly. There are some symptoms of improvement in foreign markets for cotton goods, and now that the peace settle ment has been made there is hope that with a settlement of the British coal strike the dead-lock in world.trade may be broken. The whole situation is abnormal, as there is under-consumption in all countries for want of the products that are unsaleable -From the National City Bank Review.
