The March number of the Forum
(which by the way will begin volume
XVIII will contain the sharpest. and it
is believed, the most helpful discussion
Of the income tax that has anywhere
appeared. The Hon. Uriel S. Hall, mem
her Of congress from Missouri. who has
made himself a great authority on this
subject, will write in favor Of it. while
Mr.. David A. Wells against it. The
same number of the Forum will contain
the first Of a series OF articles on differ
ent systems of socialism or communism
that are favored by different groups of
agitators in the United States; Mr.. Ed
ward Bellamy will explain definitely the
program of the ~nationalists. and Prof.
William G. Sumner of Yale university
will criticise this program, showing its
impracticability. Another striking ar
ticle that will appearin this number will
be a searching inquiry into the causes of
railroad failures in 1893. by Mr.. Simon
Sterne.
The Forum will begin this seventeenth
volume with an innovation which it is
hoped will provASery useful to serious
students of current problems. At the
end of such articles as The Income
Tax" The Program Of the N~ationalists'
and other kindred discussions, there will
be published a brief list of the most IN
s~tructive books and articles bearing on
both sides of thsse discussions. so that a
than any review article can take him.
