DEMOBILIZATION WITH NO PLANS FOR FUTURE GOVERNMENT HAS MADE NO PREPARATIONS TO MEET CONDITIONS THAT WILL ARISE REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMEN INTRODUCE MANY BILLS FOR RELIEF OF SOLDIERS The demobilization of the vast army which America raised to assist in the defeat of Germany is going ahead without regard to the economic needs of the country or those of the men who are mustered out of the service. This is due to the fact that the administration had made no preparation whatever to meet the conditions that necessarily would arise when 3,000,000 men were suddenly transferred from camp life to the duties of civilians. Men are being mustered out of the service regardless of whether they have jobs awaiting them or not. A good many units are being mustered out of service not at the point of their enlistment but at the great centers of population, far from their homes and amid conditions not conducive to their morale. Thousands of soldiers are being returned to this country and mustered out of service who have not had their pay for several months. Thousands of others have received their pay but have had it taken up by their allotments and their Liberty Committee and Democratic Congress, much of the privation which is now being endured by soldiers and sailors would have been avoided. Democrats, however, as well as the War Department, seemed indifferent to the needs of the returning soldiers, with the result that now there are thousands of men who have been mustered out of service, or returned to this country and waiting for discharge who, through no fault of their own and much to their humiliation and embarrassment, are being compelled to accept charity from the public and patriotic organizations. This is another illustration of the inability of the present Democratic administration to meet the problems of peace. GRAND CANYON AS A RESERVOIR Change Is Urged Upon Congress by California Woman, Who Sess Great Gains in Plan In a letter sent to all United States senators and representatives, Mrs. H. W. R. Strong, of Whittier, renews her appeal that the Grand Canyon of the Colorado be utilized as a reservoir. She says, in part: "The present movement, inaugurated in 1917, has not changed much in aspect. Since my plans were perfected for source conservation of flood waters in 1887, there have been damages inconceivable in money, millions upon millions each year in washing away good soils in large areas, besides the expensive work done on embankments. "The provisions asked for in the present legislation are constructive, remedial, preventive and devoid of speculation: count the flood damages annually recurring with the cost of embankment works and you will have an amount that would construct the dams necessary to check the floods. "After the dams are built there will ed these amounts, and marital status, must fit come with the collected enue for the district in or before March 1st." Here is what will happen; they don't; for failure on time, a fine of not more than an additional cent of the amount of tax evaded. For "wilfully refusal turn on time, a fine not more than 000, or not exceeding imprisonment, or both. For making a false return, a fine of not more than 000, or not exceeding imprisonment for one year, or both, together with total assessment of the amount of tax evaded. For failure to pay a fine of not more than additional assessment the amount of tax unpaid interest for each which it remains. In addition to the personal exemptions allowed an exemption on person dependent upon support if such person teen years of age and support. Under the emption was allowed dependent child. The one who supports one closely connected relationship, relations or by adoption—is exempted from emptions allowed a m. The normal rate of new act is 6 per cent of net income above and 12 per cent of the excess of $4,000. Income $5,000 are subject all ranging from 1 per cent of the net income below $6,000 to 65 per cent. have jobs awaiting them or not. A good many units are being mustered out of service not at the point of their enlistment but at the great centers of population, far from their homes and amid conditions not conducive to their morale. Thousands of soldiers are being returned to this country and mustered out of service who have not had their pay for several months. Thousands of others have received their pay but have had it taken up by their allotments and their Liberty bond subscriptions, so that they are returning to civilian life practically penniless. In addition to this, there is an order by the War Department that soldiers must give up their uniforms within a short time after returning to civilian life, which inflicts upon the average man a financial burden that he is little able to stand. These injustices could all have been avoided had the administration had any plan of demobilization such as European belligerents had perfected in anticipation of that time when their vast armies must be demobilized and return to civilian pursuits. In those countries soldiers are not being discharged from the service without money, without jobs, without some civilian clothing, or without some guarantee that they will not become a burden to their friends or the public pendig the time they find employment. In order to alleviate, in a small way, the conditions of American soldiers who are being mustered out of service, several bills have been introduced in Congress by Republican members, which would permit soldiers to retain their uniforms and which would provide some small compensation for all men who are honorably discharged from the service. Among those Republicans who have introduced bills of this character are: Representative French, of Idaho: A bill providing for the retention by officers, soldiers, sailors and marines, of uniforms and clothing and other articles of apparel, upon their being honorably discharged from service. Representative Gould, of New York: A bill providing that all enlisted men and non-commissioned officers in the army, navy, marine corps, coast guard and army nurse corps, who receive an honorable discharge from service, shall retain as their property, at no cost to them, whatever clothing and equipment they may have in their possession at the time of their discharge and that they be allowed to wear the same in civilian life. Representative Gould The provisions asked for in the present legislation are constructive, remedial, preventive and devoid of speculation: count the flood damages annually recurring with the cost of embankment works and you will have an amount that would construct the dams necessary to check the floods. "After the dams are built there will be a large increase of water stored for agricultural purposes, besides water power for hydro-electric energy. Each dam could be made a new Niagara Falls, besides supplying the lands with water that the Secretary of the Interior desires to prepare for homes for our soldiers—lands now worthless, desert lands, but with the same potentialities that slumbered undisturbed in that marvelous Imperial Valley, now the richest on earth, until the vivifying influence of water made the desert blossom as the rose." "As an engineering proposition, more water can be stored at less cost than by any other system. It is safer, without danger of breakage. The Grand Canyon river bed and sides, 1000 feet high, are granite—bed rock. The blasted rock is ready for the builder without cost of transportation. The dams will be narrow and high, tied to the granite sides. The surface of the river being raised to the top of the dams, it becomes a moving, living stream, life-giving, and the project when completed the entire length of the canyon, would be more than the eighth wonder of the world, 150 miles of river from 250 to 1000 feet deep, interspersed with water falls! Thus the scenic value of the canyon would be greatly increased." THE VICTORY LOAN The Victory Loan campaign is not called off, but will be held in April, as previously announced. To correct the misunderstanding that resulted from a recent announcement that the Victory Loan was called off, James K. Lynch, governor of the Federal Reserve Bank of the Twelfth Federal Reserve District makes the following statement: "Telegraphic reports of changes in the plan for financing the government, have produced a feeling of uncertainty in the minds of our citizens. "We have positive assurance from Secretary Glass that a popular loan will be offered for subscription on all eligible individuals." The normal rate of new act is 6 per cent of net income above and 12 per cent of the excess of $4,000. Inc. $5,000 are subject to ranging from 1 per cent of the net income below $6,000 to 65 per cent above $1,000,000. Payment of the tax full at the time of five four installments, on 15, on or before June September 15, and on October 15. Revenue officers country in the United taxpayers in making The date of their arrival of their offices may by inquiry at office internal revenue post Failure to see these does not relieve the obligation to file his tax within the time In htis case taxpayer government, not the taxpayer.

Representative Gould also introduced a bill providing that all officers and men who have served in the military and naval service of the United States during the war with Germany and Austria,'shall, when honorably discharged or mustered out, receive two months' extra pay if they served outside the continental limits of the United States, and one month's extra pay if they served within the continental limits of the United States. Representative James, of Michigan: A bill providing that every officer and enlisted man of the army, navy or marine corps or the army nurse corps, shall be paid three months' pay at the time of his being mustered out of service or given an honorable discharge. Representative Fuller of Illinois: A bill providing that every officer and enlisted man who has served in the army, navy or marine corps or army nurse corps, shall be given one month's extra pay and the sum of $100 when he is mustered out of service and given an honorable discharge. All of these bills have been before the House Committee on Military Affairs for several weeks without the committee's taking any action on them. The vast majority of the bills were introduced in November and December, soon after the signature of the armistice and before the troops began to be demobilized. Had they been acted upon promptly by the Democratic House Work on the collection of $6,000,000,000 has been begun by the Bureau of Internal Revenue. This is the estimated yield of the new revenue bill. The income tax provisions of the act reach the pocket-book of every single person in the United States whose net income for 1918 was $1,000, or more, and of every married person whose net income was $2,000 or more. Persons whose net income equalled or exceeded $375,000 per cent, $240. On this he pays at the norsecent, $120. In addition tax of $10,1 per cent his income between His total tax is $375,000 per cent. A married man had a net income from this he deduces emption of $2,000 dependent. On the balance of $5,100 his normal tax rate of On the amount of $5,000 and $6,000 he per cent, or $10. On income between $255 pays a surtax of 2% The total, normal and net income for 1918 exceeded $2,000 must separate or joint claim the exemption may be divided between A widow,a woman her husband or a return if her net in ceeded $1,000. Revenue officers ed these amounts, according to their marital status, must file a return in income with the collector of internal revenue for the district in which they live on or before March 15. Here is what will happen to them if they don't; for failure to file a return on time, a fine of not more than $1,000 and an additional assessment of 25 per cent of the amount of tax due. For "wilfully refusing" to make a return on time, a fine not exceeding $10,000, or not exceeding one year imprisonment, or both. For making a false or fraudulent return, a fine of not more than $10,000, or imprisonment for not more than one year, or both, together with an additional assessment of 50 per cent of the amount of tax evaded. For failure to pay the tax on time, a fine of not more than $1,000 and an additional assessment of 5 per cent of the amount of tax unpaid, plus 1 per cent interest for each full month during which it remains unpaid. In addition to the $1,000 and $2,000 personal exemptions, taxpayers are allowed an exemption of $200 for each person dependent upon them for chief support if such person is under eighteen years of age and incapable of self-support. Under the 1917 act, this exemption was allowed only for each dependent child. The head of a family—one who supports one or more persons closely connected with him by blood relationship, relationship by marriage, or by adoption—is entitled to all exemptions allowed a married person. The normal rate of tax under the new act is 6 per cent in the first $4,000 of net income above the exemptions, and 12 per cent of the net income in excess of $4,000. Incomes in excess of $5,000 are subject also to a surtax ranging from 1 per cent of the amount of the net income between $5,000 and $6,000 to 65 per cent of the net income every country in the United States to assist taxpayers in making out their returns. The date of their arrival and the location of their offices will be announced through the press, or may be obtained by inquiring at the offices of collectors of internal revenue, postoffices and banks. The service is without cost to the public. Failure to see these revenue officers, however, does not relieve the taxpayer of his obligation to file his return and pay at least one-fourth of the tax within the time specified by law, on or before March 15. In the collection of income taxes the government is not required to seek the taxpayer. The taxpayer must seek the government. GOOD CAUSE FOR ALARM These Figures Will Make Anaheim People Take Notice Deaths from kidney disease have increased 72% in twenty years. People overdo nowadays in so many ways that the constant filtering of poisoned blood weakens the kidneys. Beware of fatal Bright's disease. When backache or urinary illus suggest weak kidneys, use Doan's Kidney Pills, live carefully, take things easy and avoid heavy eating. Doan's Kidney Pills command confidence, for no other kidney remedy is so widely used or so generally successful. Home endorsement is the best proof of merit. Read this Anaheim resident's story: Mrs. Nannie Jones, 507 S. Los Angeles street, says: "When I over-work, it affects my kidneys and brings on attacks of backache. When I am sweeping, sharp twings catch me in the small of my back and nearly drive me wild. I am nervous and become easily excited. I have dizzy spells and everything turns black before my eyes. I always take Doan's Kidney Pills at these times, procured from Mullinix's these positions at any time until further notice. Full information and application blanks may be obtained by calling upon the secretary of the local board of civil service examiners at the custom house or postoffice in any important city, or by communicating with the United States civil service commission, Washington, D.C. Applicants will not be assembled for a written examination but will be rated upon their sworn statements in their applications as to education, experience, etc., and upon corroborative evidence adduced by the civil service commission. WANTS $10,000 DAMAGES FOR ALLEGED SLANDER Placentia Woman Sues Administrator of Husband's Estate Suit for $10,000 damages for slander has been brought in the superior court of Los Angeles by Mrs. Agnes Maganey of Long Beach against J. N. Kint, also of Long Beach. The basis of the action are remarks alleged to have been made by Kint to N. Frank Morse and Nathan C. Morse of Placentia. The complaint asserts that Kint said: "We sure hung it on her. We produced evidence of improper conduct at Seal Beach. We showed her up proper." The slander suit is an offshoot of litigation that has occupied some attention in the superior court here since Kint applied for letters of administration upon the estate of J. Hayes Maganey, a Placentia orchardist, who was killed in an automobile accident at Anaheim. Several months previous to Maganey's death, he and his wife separated, a property agreement being signed at that time. Kint applied for letters as the nominee of Maganey's mother. Mrs. Agnes Maganey, the closely connected with him by blood relationship, relationship by marriage, or by adoption—is entitled to all exemptions allowed a married person. The normal rate of tax under the new act is 6 per cent in the first $4,000 of net income above the exemptions, and 12 per cent of the net income in excess of $4,000. Incomes in excess of $5,000 are subject also to a surtax ranging from 1 per cent of the amount of the net income between $5,000 and $6,000 to 65 per cent of the net income above $1,000,000. Payment of the tax may be made in full at the time of filing return or in four installments, on or before March 15, on or before June 15, on or before September 15, and on or before December 15. Revenue officers will visit every country in the United States to aid taxpayers in making out their returns. The date of their arrival and hte location of their offices may be ascertained by inquiring at offices of collectors of internal revenue, postoffices and banks. Failure to see these officers, however, does not relieve the taxpayer of his obligation to file his return and pay his tax within the time specified by law. In his case taxpayers must seek the government, not the government the taxpayer. THE SURTAX Surtax rates, which apply to incomes in excess of $5,000, are changed by the new revenue bill. Under the current act, the rate is 1 per cent on the net income in excess of $5,000 and not over $6,000, and increases by steps of 1 per cent for each $2,000 of net income up to, and including, 48 per cent on net income in excess of $98,000 and not over $100,000. From this point the rates run as follows: 52 per cent on net income over $100,000 and not over $150,000; 56 per cent on net income over $150,000 and not over $200,000; 60 per cent on net income over $200,000 and not over $300,000; 63 per cent on net income over $300,000 and not over $500,000; 64 per cent on net income over $500,000 and not over $1,000,000 and 65 per cent on net income over $1,000,000. Under the acts in force for 1917, the surtax rates ranged from 1 per cent on the amount of net income over $5,000 and not over $7,500, to 63 per cent on the net income above $1,000,000. The following illustration will show the average taxpayer how to compute his income tax: A single man had a net income for Mrs. Nannle Jones, 507 S. Los Angeles street, says: "When I over-work, it affects my kidneys and brings on attacks of backache. When I am sweeping, sharp twinges catch me in the small of my back and nearly drive me wild. I am nervous and become easily excited. I have dizzy spells and everything turns black before my eyes. I always take Doan's Kidney Pills at these times, procured from Mullinix's Drug Store. The backache leaves me and I feel entirely well again." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Jones had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y.—Adv. At the preliminary examination on Tuesday of Jose Gonzales, who shot Luis Orosco to death at Stanton, and Felix Chavez, who held the horse while Gonzales did the shooting, not a word of evidence was developed to indicate the motive Gonzales had for killing Orosco. At the time of the shooting it was declared that Orosco's intimacy with a member of Gonzales' family was the cause for the enmity between the men. Testimony at the preliminary was no different from that given at the coroner's inquest. Witnesses said that Gonzales got out of his buggy, walked over to Orosco, said a few words to him, drew a revolver and fired, ran back to the buggy and rode away. Deputy District Attorney Nelson conducted the examination for the prosecution and Attorney Orfila of Los Angeles appeared for the defense. Justice Cox ordered both men held for trial without bail. No good purpose can be served by the apparent understanding among American newspapers to withhold from their readers the fact that all the clocks in the United States, to be on time, must again be set one hour ahead on the last Saturday night of next month. Omitting mention of it only postpones what must inevitably be made clear in due time, namely, that those who now think 7 A.M. is early enough will have to readjust themselves to another view of the matter very soon. It would be much better to keep the fact before these people, so that they might begin getting up at 6, even before the last Sunday in March, thus gliding smoothly, as it were, into the earlier rising arrangement. The slander suit is an offshoot of litigation that has occupied some attention in the superior court here since Kint applied for letters of administration upon the estate of J. Hayes Maganey, a Placentia orchardist, who was killed in an automobile accident at Anaheim. Several months previous to Maganey's death, he and his wife separated, a property agreement being signed at that time. Kint applied for letters as the nominee of Maganey's mother. Mrs. Agnes 'Maganey, the widow, contested the application but on account of the property agreement lost the decision. Kint was given control of the estate. Later Mrs. Maganey brought an action in court to establish her interest in some of the property of her husband's estate, which right, if established, would have given her a good chance to oust Kint as administrator of Hayes Maganety's estate. Last week a decision against Mrs. Maganey was rendered in the superior court in that case. N. Frank Morse is one of the best known men of the county, long a prominent citrus grower of the Placentia country. The complaint alleges that Kint's remarks referred to a hearing before Judge Thomas in Santa Ana last November. It is alleged that there was no foundation in truth in the statements attributed to Kint, and because of this untruth, Mrs. Maganey asks for $10,000 damages. Eden & Koepsel of Santa Ana are Mrs. Maganety's attorneys. HERE'S A WARNING Purchasers of 1919 War Savings Stamps should not place them on 1918 folders—technically known as War Savings Certificates—is the warning of Samuel Hubbard, director of War Savings for the Twelfth Federal Reserbe District. If the 1918 certificates has blank spaces just put the certificate away without filling it with 1919 stamps. The came Thrift Stamps and Thrift Cards are used this year and when the Thrift Card holding 16 stamps is filled it will be exchanged for the 1919 War Savings Stamp on payment of the additional cents which represent the difference between the price of the War Savings Stamp and $4, the value of the 16 Thrift Stamps. Where there is any doubt Director Hubbard advises questioning the local secretary of the War Savings Society or the postmaster. FROM THE LOAN ON BEAING A LOAN MASTER, DECEMBER 1917. THE ACT IN IMPLEMENTATION OF THE NEW TAXES Under the acts in force for 1917, the surtax rates ranged from 1 per cent on the amount of net income over $5,000 and not over $7,500, to 63 per cent on the net income above $1,000,000. The following illustration will show the average taxpayer how to compute his income tax: A single man had a net income for 1918 of $6,000. First he deducts his personal exemption of $1,000, leaving a balance of $5,000. On the first $4,000 he pays at the normal rate of 6 per cent, $240. On the remaining $1,000 he pays at the normal rate of 12 per cent, $120. In addition he pays a surtax of $10,1 per cent on the amount of his income between $5,000 and $6,000. His total tax is $370. A married man with two dependents had a net income for 1918 of $7,500. From this he deducts his personal exemption of $2,000 plus $200 for each dependent. On the first $4,000 of the balance of $5,100 he will pay, at the normal tax rate of 12 per cent, $132. On the amount of his income between $5,000 and $6,000 he pays a surtax of 1 per cent, or $10. On the amount of his income between $6,000 and $7,500 he pays a surtax of 2 per cent, or $30. The total, normal and surtax, is $412. Husband nad wife whose combined net income for 1918 equalled or exceeded $2,000 must file a return, either separate or joint as desired. If separate returns are filed either one may claim the exemption of $2,000, or it may be divided between them. A widow,a woman living apart from her husband or a maid must file a return if her net in come equalled or exceeded $1,000. Revenue officers will be be sent into postpones what must inevitably be made clear in due time, namely, that those who now think 7 A.M. is early enough will have to readjust themselves to another view of the matter very soon. It would be much better to keep the fact before these people, so that they might begin getting up at 6, even before the last Sunday in March, thus gliding smoothly, as it were, into the earlier rising arrangement. GOVERNMENT SEEKS ACCOUNTANTS AT GOOD SALARIES The government has some big tasks in accounting and auditing on its hands as a result of the war,and is willing to pay good salaries to men and women who are qualified to perform them. The income tax unit of the Bureau of Internal Revenue,Treasury Department,is in urgent need of 350 traveling auditors and resident auditors for the higher-grade positions,which pay entrance salaries from $3,000 to $4,500 a year. The ordnance department of the army needs at once 250 senior cost accountants at entrance salaries from $2,200 to $4,200 a year,and 250 junior cost accountants at $1,200 to $2,000 a year. The interstate commerce commission wants 50 examiners of accounts. These are usually appointed at entrance salaries from $1,800 to $2,100 a year,the higher-salaried positions,paying from $2,200 to $3,000 a year or more,bearing filled as a rule by promotion. All of these positions are open to both men and women except positions of examiner of accounts in the inter-state commerce commission which are open to men only. The United States civil service commission will receive applications for Cards are used this year and when the Thrift Card holding 16 stamps is filled it will be exchanged for the 1919 War Savings Stamp on payment of the additional cents which represent the difference between the price of the War Savings Stamp and $4,the value of the 16 Thrift Stamps.
