For Indeed the United BUtee is at war. A largo portloa of the country's productive energies have been re-di reeted toward, manufacturing Instru ments of destruction and materials wed la war making. The need for these la urgent. The means for their manufacture that are at hand must e used. That means that prices much higher than would or dinarily obtain, are being paid. A fight la being made In the Unit- ea stale senate to impose upon these swollen war profits, a i tfrely high tax for the support of the war. The plea' la made that i those who enjoy the greatest pro- flta from the conflict, can and should giro more In proportion than the rest of the dtlsenshlp ot the country who do not so profit - The wealth of the nation must not complain If called upon to make sac rifices. Others are sacrificing; many, their all. The wealthy can do their expected share with leu In eonrenlence and suffering than any other class. England has imposed a war-pro fit tax of 80 per cent Senator Borah read In the senate statistics allowing that there are In this coun try corporations who could pay this Tate of tax and still make from three to fire times as much as they did la normal times of peace. Discontent among the mass of our people will surely follow any tax legislation which does not impose wpon every class taxes that are Just and in accordance to their abilities to pay. It looks as though the friends of this amendment had asked at first for a percentage of tax higher than they really expected could be obtain ed. Their first efforts wer defeated. But they are showing a determina tion to fight It out, and will, In all probability, secure some measure, more or less In the nature of a com promise, whereby the burdens of war taxes will not fall most heavi ly upon the poorer classes. hart stock farm, near Illinois City.
