From the Chanute, Kansas Daily Tribune from :
Fishermen On Strike.
They Refuse to Pay Tax Demanded by the Government.
Ymuiden, Netherlands, . — A fishermen’s strike against the war profits tax has been declared here. Stirred by the tax collector’s demand of a share in the remarkable earnings they have been pocketing for many months past, the Ymuiden fishermen refuse, as they term it, to risk their lives until they have obtained the certainty that a great part of their hard-earned wage will not be requisitioned. It is no unusual thing just now for an ordinary fisherman to earn $150, $200, or $250 a month and skippers as much as $400 to $800, so high are the prices readily paid for their products by foreign and home buyers.
