my Judgment, B0m OF these taxes
should be part of our system Of fed
eral taxation. / speak diftidently about
the income tax because one scheme for
an income tax was declared unconsti-
tutional by the supreme court while in
addition 1t is a difficult tax to admin
lister in its practical working. aud great
care would have'to be exercised to see
that IT. was not evaded by the very
men whom it was most desirable to
have taxed Nevertheless n graduated
income tax of the proper type would
be a desirable feature of federal taxa
tion, and 1t is to be hoped that one
may be devised which the supreme
court will declare constitutional
The inheritance tax, however, is
a far better method Of taxation. The
government has the absolute right to
decide as to the terms upon which a
man shall receive a bequest from an
other. and this point in the deyolutio1
of property IS esTeealfy appropriate
for the imposition of tax. Laws inn
posing such taxes have repeatedly been
placed upon the national statute hooks
and as repeatedly declared constitu-
tional 10y the courts, and these laws
contained the progressive principle
that Is. after a certain amount Is reach
ed the bequest or gift IN life or death
is increasingly burdened aud the rate
Of taxation is increased in proportion
20 the remoteness OF blood of the man
receiving the bequest. These principles
are recognized already in the leading
civilized nations OF the world

The German law Is especially inter

i've folly any more Inan1t can guaran-
tee an Individual against the results Of
his extravaganza. when an individual
mortgages his house 70 buy an auto
mobile he invites disaster, and when
wealthy men or men who pose as such
or are unscrupulously or foolishly eager
to become such indulge in reckless
speculation, especially If It is accom-
panied by dishonesty, they jeopardlze
not only their own future, but the fu-

Can't Revise Tariff Now.
This country Is definitely committed
10 the protective system, and any ef-
fort 70 uproot it could not but cause
widespread Industrial disaster. In
other words. the principle Of the pres
ent tariff law could not with wisdom
be changed But in a country of such
phenomenal growth as ours Il Is prob
ably well that every dozen years or so
the tarlff laws should be carefully scru-
tlnized so as TO see that no excessive
or improper benefits are conferred
thereby that proper revenue is proyid-
ed and that our foreign trade Is en-
cOuraged There must always be as a
minimum a tariff which will not only
allow for the collection of an ample
revenue, but which win nj least make
good the difference IN cost OF produc-
tiou here aud abrOad-that is, the diff
ference ia the labor cost he-e and
abroad, for the well being of the wage
worker must ever be cardinal point
Of American policy The question
should be approached purely from a
business standpoint, both the time aud
the manner Of the change being such
as 20 arouse the minimum Of agitation
and disturbance ia the business world
aud TO give the least play for selfish
and facli0ual motives. The sole con
sideration should he TO see that the
sum total Of changes represents the
public good. This means that the sub
iect cannot with wisdom be dealt with
in the wear preceding g presidential
election. because as n matter OF fact
experience has eenclusiVei5 shown tllai
at such time Il Is impossible % sel
men 10 treat 81 from the standpolnt of
the public good Ia my Judgment the
wise time to deal with the matter is

re8dy 1r has become evident thde the
great benefit the law confers upon the
public is accompanied by an equal ben
eft to the reputable packing establish

Pure Food Law.
Incidentally In the passage Of the
pure food law the action of the yari-
Gus state food and dairy commission
ers showed In striking fashion how
much good for the whole people results
from the hearty cooperation of the
federal and state officials IN securing
a given reform 1t Is primarily TO the
action OF these state commissioners
that we owe the enactment Of this
law, for they aroused the people. frst
to demand the enactment and enforce
ment OF state laws ON the subject and
then the enactment OF the federal law.
without which the state laws were
largely ineffective There must be the
closest cooperation between the ma
tional and state governments IN ad-
mlpirtering these laws.
Currency Legislation Needed.
/ again urge on the congress the
need of immediate attention 20 this
matter We need a greater elasticity
IN our currency, provided Of course
that We recognize the even greater
need Of a safe and secure currency.
Provision should he made for an
emergency currency The emergency
issue should of course be made with
an effective guarantee and upon condi-
tions carefully prescribed by the gov.
ernment. Such emergency issue must
be based on adequate securities ap.
proved by the government and must be-
issued under a heavy tax This would
