stands for the latter, as before pointed
out. We cannot think the people OF

We all believe in the income tax and
1t is constitutional in every country

it possesses? The income tax is lust.
and why should even our highest
courts bow before wealth's imperious

invests 500, 600 by building Il brick
house must pay taxes on its value
even though it be tenantless and not
earn n dollar. The man who puts
his 500, 900 into bonds and retires
the money from circulation, and earns
Il good interest, is relieved from all
tax burdens. Such things have gone
from bad to worse in other countries
until unbearable wrongs wrought re-

why should similar things exist in our

strong manner. 1t says:

posed to teach the Young mind the Gle.

from the SIGNALS article, and adds
new weight to the case by quoting
from the book another paragraph, of
a different nature, not given by the
