"These men were elected presidents
of their respective associations, sent

ASKS TAX RETURNS
TO F ND PROF T S
Full publicity of the Income tax re
turns of corporation and individual
producers and distributors of food
stuffs, to enable the Government to
single out all profiteers, is called for
I in a resolution offered yesterday by
I Senator Walsh of Montana.
If the Walsh resolution is adopted
the proposed Investigation of the high
cost of living by joint Congressional
committee would include access to all
income returns with directions to an
nex in its report the profits of all
persons or corporations who have had
contractural relations with the Gov
ernment since April 6, 1917.
While the Walsh resolution has
nothing to do with the Senate District
subcommittee now investigating profi
teering in Washington, publicity of
Income returns would prove of ines
timable value to that committee. The
resolution also calls for a list of all
the dollar-a-year men employed by
the Government to whom Government
contracts were issued, either as Indi
viduals or to concerns with which
they were connected, together with
the profits derived.
The resolution preamble sets forth
that publicity of income returns is de
manded by the public in order to stop
profiteering, so the people might know
who amassed fortunes when the Gov
ernment was under duress of war.
Efforts to obtain consideration of the
Walsh measure were futile, however,
and it was tabled.

UNCLE OF CZAR IS
ALIVE IN SWEDEN
Grand Duke Nicholas May Re
vive War to Put End to
Lenine's Rule.
LONDON, Aug. 22. Like a ghost
from tho grave, one of the most pic
turesque figures of the first three
years of the great war has again ap
peared upon the world's stago and
looms today as tho man who may
revive tho war In eastern Europe to,
put an end to Lenine's rule in Russia.
He is none other than the Grand
Duke Nicholas Nicolalevitch, uncle of
the late Czar. For more than two
years ever since he was sent to the
Crimea by the Bolshevikl he has
been living In hiding, during which
time he has been many times reported
killed. Today comes a dispatch from
Stockholm that he has arrived there
from London, to take part in a great
"war council" to agree upon a plan
for a concerted offensive on Petro
grad. This la the first hint that Grand
Duke Nicholas has been in London,
and It is presumed he came and went
In disguise. How he escaped from
the Crimea Is a mystery. Recently
he was reported at an obscure village
near Genoa, Italy.
Grand Duke Nicholas la still the
idol of the Russian masses, and his
reappearance In Russia, with the bat
tle cry of a savior would rally hun
dreds of thousands of volunteers
around his baner.
"Down Lenlne first let the future
take care of itself," Is the watchword
of the hour, and on that theory the
great war council at Stockhold Is
reported to be working. Gathered
there" with the Grand Duke are Gen
eral Yudenltch, Premier Lianoziff, of
the new anti-Bolshevist government
of northwest Russia, and Sherpadsky,
former hetman of tho Ukraine.

Many People In This City Miss
A large number of people In thfa
city fall to get out of life all that
they are justly entitled to. They get
along somehow, often pitiably un
comfortable, because they do not
know how to better themselves. These
folks get up in the morning dreading
the day before them. They want no
breakfast, they don't like to talk to
people, and they dread going to work.
Some times the feeling works off
during the day and they feel fine
while the stress of the day's work
is on them, only to be literally "all
in" wlien night comes. They drag
themselves home to a dinner they do
not enjoy, and it rests on their stom

fitfully, and the sleep does not give
them the rest it should. They are
entitled to sympathy when they try
to help themselves. If they only
knew how science has provided a Way
for them to get well they wouldUnot
mope around this way. Others by
the thousand have got out of this
