Indianapolis, July 4.—The time, ener gy and “serious purpose” devoted to the specific training of pupils in citizenship is “pitiflully inadequate,” H. C. Morr- Hon, professor of education at the Uni versity of Chicago, declared yesterday before the National Council for the So cial Sstudiea of the National Education Association at its annual convention. “All education is in a sense training for citizenship,” he said, “but it is a pity to lost sight of a definite and specific need In vagde optimism that if nn' in dividual has pasaed through school he has thereby somehow become an intelli gent citizen.

C.—The 00th Congress of the United Wattes, scheduled to con vent in Deceirfber, }S already rolling up its sleeves, tightening its belt, and pre paring to tackle onefi again its ever pres ent promblem, the Income Tax. | To start with, it will consider these faefs t | The number of ineome taxpayers is increasing. * • ■ - 1 Their net ineomgs-— «n which the tax is levied—are increasing. Bnt due to tat rate reductions, both the average individual tax and the total tax collected have decreased. In 1023, personal ineome tax returns were made by 6,787.481 persons—6 20 per cent, of the country’s population. These reported a total net income of $21,336,530,0(10 for the preceding year, and paid a total tax of $861,057,308, 'The average net ineome tax $3,143.46 and the average fa* $126.86—a rate of 4.04 per cent. In 1924. returns wfre filed by 7,698,- 321 persons—nearly seven per cent, of the population—who reported a total net income of $26,336,837,843. but who paid a total tax of only $703,062,165. The average net income had risen to $3,421.0fi, but the attfiige tax had fal len to $01.44 —a rate of 2.67 per cent. Compilation of 1025 figures is not yet entirely completed, but the work has progressed far enough to show that the trend will be the sgine. There wil be an increase in. the number Os re turns, an increase’tH net incomes, but a decrease—due to still further reduc tions—in the taxes collected.

"We ace coming—to—look upon the rights us men said tHi simp Stattery-explainte* the dropping of “obey" from the marriage service. “The, pledge of the man, t before. should be the same as the pledge of the Woman, l’lie lift" which is entered into in marriage is n life of mutual, consideration and obe dience, and not submission of one to the other oil 'one sale only.". The change is not lowering the marriage vow. but rath er raising it, he added. The proposed change in the form of the commandments is recommended ‘so that the mind aud heart- will be reached more directly by the sli.wtened form." It is pointed out that the-use of the longer or shorter form will be optional with the clergy. Regarding the bttrial service for sui cides Bishop Slattery said: “The burial office lias been given more of a Christian hope and confidence. There is difficulty in deciding whether a person who commits suicide is responsible for his act. In many cases we feel sure that the person is not responsible foV his act. and that the act is part of a serious mental dis ease. A hard and fast rule which bars EVERETT TRUE BY CONDO WELL, Eve RC TT, HE AH X AM AGaInF I WAS IN NEW VAfcUk ffeA+4 WeeKS, * AND WHILE I WAS THEAH I BOUGHT A W E ' W ACCENT A 1 k The average., tax will probably be in' the neighborhood of |75. As to next . year—that's where Con gress comes iq. f It has been announced that another income tax reduction is to be made. The voters want it. Congress wants it, and the administration wants it— making it just about unanimous. Hut the question is: What form will the reduction take? The Democrats and Progressives in t Vngress, as a whole, arc in favor of a cut in the normal tax rate—now 2 per cent, on the first >4,000 of net • In come, 4 per cent on the next $4,000, and 6 per cent on the balance. Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, Imwever, is in favor* of reducing the surtax —that extra tax which is now ] added on to net incomes in excess of SIO,OOO. I Just how far the administration will | back him in this plan is problematical. And if the administration should back him, it is doubtful how far the Repub licans in Congress will back the admin iktrntion. Mellon's plan is far from being popu i lar with the voters whose net incomes are less than SIO.OO0 — which means a big majority of voters. On the other hand, it is extremely popular with those fortunate individu als having Jarge incomes—and these in dividuals wield considerable influence. When it comes to a showdown be tween votes and money power, there's no way of telling what will happen. . The best guess is that the next in come tax cut will be a compromise— quite likely a cut in both normal tax and surtax. ; • Again, it, is possible that the whole affair may end in a squabble, with no changes made in the present law. In this case, the income taxpayers wonld continue paying just what they’re paying now. nil such persons from the privilege of the burial rite, adding grief to the sorrow of the surviving relatives, seems not true to the spirit of Christ.” The Good Friday Coiiect, which in vokes “mercy on all Jews. Turks, infidels anti heretics,” which has g ; yen offense to the Jews, will read, if the convention gives its final approval, "have mercy up on all who know Thee not as Thou art revealed in the Gospel, of Thy son," etc. Another revision of the prayer book to. which significance attaches is that pray ers for the departed are provided for in the revised burial service. Prior to 101(1 there wag in thg prayer book no prayer for the tfcpaytgd. although many regarded the WtW portion of the pywjtfe of the chip*}) ..militant in the communion office aH lwnpliedly a petition of this sort. In li we, however, with the! World War waging ai\(i world-wide prayg ers being offered foft those whoi 'wete falling in battle, a new. prayer ; ”F«r Mrs* morial Days" was agreed" upon after £i\ impressive debate by the general con vcntipp mgvtiug.jftJß-.Douis, JEW* pray **', the cae of .which wao ma.de, merely permissive, was ratified in accordance with the provisions of' the'church' eonsti tutiou in 1010, whereby the principle of prayers for the departed was recognized. It Is now used on memorial days. At the convention of 1022 this prayer was slightly revised, and In its new form will be finally voted on at the New* Orleans convention.
