HOW TO ABOLISH THE "WAR TAX" We pointed out yesterday that the special tax levied by the Federal gov ernment for the purpose of meeting running expenses was due to the fall ing off of imports from the Nations of Europe that are just now engaged in fighting rather than trading. In its attempt to lead its readers to be lieve that there should have been no necessity for levying a-"war tax" in time of peace the Union Republican asks, "Are we not selling millions of dollars worth of products to the Na tions across the sea?" Will the Repuolican be kind enough to tell its readers wherein the govern ment derives any revenue from prod ucts sold to the Nations across the sea? The Republican will be per forming a great and lasting service to the country if it can show how that exnorts can be made to take the place of imports in supplying the govern ment with funds at this time, when the balance of trade is more largely in favor of the United States than ever before in our history. If our con temnorarv will fmriart this bit of in formation, which it alone seems to be in possession of, we have no doubt but that the Wilson administration will abolish the "war tax" at once. Does the Renublican favor nutting a duty on exports ? If so, the Democ racy will be glad to go before the peo ple on that issue. Winston-Salem Journal. LlNOCULATTNG MATERIAL PRICE REDUCED Jas. L.
