ENGLAND PLANS
TAX ON COTTON
British Mills Alarmed Over Supply
Outlook—May Turn to Colonies
Hy FLOYD MACOKIFF
LONDON, Mar. 1. England is
alarmed at the cotton supply out-
look. She fears it will be increas-
ingly difficult for her to satisfy all
her needs for raw cotton from the
I Tilled States, from which she now
gets S3 per cent of her supply.
Therefore, the laincasbire mill own-
ers argue, Kmgland must develop
her own cotton resources in Egypt,
India and Central Africa.
One person in eight in England
•s dependent in some manner upon
the cotton spinning Industry. Contin-
ued high prices In America are re-
garded as certain, owing to the In-
sistent world demand for cotton
goods which under no circumstances
can be filled for several years.
Major Null. M. P.. has warned
l-ancushire not to depend on Ameri-
ca or. Hmzll for cotton because “one
is not sure of the labor situation
there," and he points to the cheap
labor, correct rlimute and soil avail,
able in undeveloped portions of the
empire Africa und India for main-
taining low priced cotton.
The Empire rollon Growing com
mitteo has recommended a tux of
six pence per bale on imported cot-
ton. to realize a 100,min pound fund
to develop Imperial cotton resources.
But many times that sum Is re-
quired. it is pointed out. owing to
lack of reads, railways, ports, drain-
ing and irrigation schemes neces-
sary to developing imperial cotton
i»nds "where labor Is cheap."
The committee also urged British
universities to provide proper
courses, professorships, research po-
sitions und otherwise fuitber cotton
development and pioneer woik.
Professor John A. Todd, of Man
cheater university, says that nothing
but continued high prices will as-
sure .in adequate supply of cotton
from America. He says lack of siif
Orient cotton spinning mills, shorter
hours of work und exchange rates
are partially responsible for the
scarcity and high prices of cotton
goods, but these secondary infliieift-es
will disappear, he says, long before
the production shortage of raw cot-
ton Is remedied.
The French and British ideas dif
fered, however. Tho lalter's plan
was the more practicable, and was
the one finally adopted. The British
decided to produce a machine which
in effect would be a moving fort.
The duties of the men in the tank
would only be to use the tank and
Its guns against the enemy—cross
shell-torn ground between two posi-
tions, crush the enemy's barbed
wire, force the enemy to keep down
in his trenches while the allied in
fnntry advanced and took them, and
crush their machine gun nests.
The French planned to construct
a machine which would not carry
so much armament, but in which
would be placed an Infantry platoon
which, after the successful crossing
of “No Man's Land." would debouch
from the tank and attack the enemy
Infantry hand-to-hand. The first
tanks of the French, therefore, had
a small caterpillar Ire id underneath
to ullow plenty of room for carrying
infantry. Dqcaiffh. of this small
tread they were found to be unable
to cross very difficult ground and

To defeat German plans for

B-.aJe for a small auxiliary electric
p’ant on the deck of every U. S.
transport, with an automatic switch-
board that brought it into play when-
ever the principal generating plant
was crippled. It was to keep the
lights burning and the wireless tele-
graph calling for help so long as any
part of the hull remained above
water.
A young Ohio engineer, M. C.

ing Co., Sandusky, who solved the
electrical features of the problem,
says that the same principle which
I operated to “cot in” th? auxiliary
plant without loss of a dot or dash in

problem of continuous electrical cur-

CHRISTIAN REVIVAL OPENS

VIVALIST IS EXCELLENT
The revival, of the Christian

and Love." the text for which was
taken from 1st Cor. 13.
Two meetings were held during
the day, the second at night ut
which time the revivalist took hi*
text from the 21st chapter of Revela-
tions and talked on “The Gateway
to the Holy (Tty," a talk that was
brimful of cold facts and made an
appeal which went straight to the
hearts of his listeners.
Accompaning Dr, Kitchen Is J. i
Wade Seniff, song leader who has [
already organized a largo choir to
sing ht every meeting.
Aside trom his delivering of pow-
erful sermons Dr. Kitchen Is noted

PARIS THEATRE
HURT BY TAXES
PARIS. Feb, 15. (By Mail.)—Pari*
is threatening to become the Thca-
treles* City.
By way of recompense, however,
she plans to take on the added dig-
nity and glory of the world's danc-
ing center.
This Is due to two reasons; first
tile new war taxe* which affect the
receipts of all theatres and amuse-
ment places; and secondly the pre-
sent Parisian vogue of dancing.
In an effort to pay off her war
indebtedness. France has Just clap-
lied a hunch of new tuxes on the
theatres, music hulls and movies.
Coupled with the taxes they were
already paying, the theatre direc-
tors at last declare that they are al-
ready permanently out of business.
To keep from starving, however,
they will turn their theatres into
dancing establishments with flu
dan sants and with bulls in the
evening.
Taxes now imposed on theutres, !
especially of the revue type with
which Paris abounds, now total 35
per cent of their gross receipts.
They are divided up as follows; 10
per cent for the poqr which has
been u tux long established at Paris;
10 per cent royalty to the authors
und then the new war tax of 15
per cent.
The cost of all sorts of produc-
tions whether purely dramatic or
costume shows has naturally aug-
mented along with everything else.
While the Paris ehorus girls have
tried mighty hard to help out the
producers In reducing the cost of
production by giving up silk stock-
ings and going barelegged, to say
nothing of reducing ull the rest of
their dresses to the most diminu-
tive proportions, tho entire saving
has failed to be sufficiently large
to save the situation. The In-
creased cost of scenery, increases in
salary, etc., exceeds many many
Hines the money saved by the cho-
rus and even the prima donna going
barelegged.
The managers declare that thp
present total of 35 per cent of theit
receipts renders absolutely impos-
sible uny production unless one were
assured In advance that the thing
produced would have an unusually
long run. And this they cannot at
ford to risk.
As a consequence they unnounc?
their intention hereafter of cater-
ing merely to the dancing craier un-
til some other means has been
found of paying off the war debt.

The movies are taxed on a some-
what different basis. In addition to
their 10 per cent for the poor and
a few other odds and ends of taxes
their new war tax consists of 25
per cent on nil monthly receipts
between 25,000 and 50,000 francs.
On receipts up to 100,000 francs
they will pay 20 per cent and over
that 25 per cent.
As they profess never to take In
■ ver 30,000 francs a month they are
not kicking about the latter per-
centages but merely about the for-
mer.
The only theatres that seem to
have a fair chance of escaping the
dance hall fate arc the National
Grand Opera, the Comic Opera, the
French Comedy and the Odeon, all
of which are subsidized by tho state.
