opinion should be tust as severe In con-
demnation of the vice which hides itself
behind class or professional loyalty, or
which denies hat 1t Is vice II 1t can
escape conviction in the courts. The
public and the representatives Of
the public, the high officials. whether
on the bench or In executive or legis-
iative positions, need to remember that
often the most dangerous criminals, SO
far as the life of the nation Is con-
cerned, are not those who commit the
crimes known to and condemned by the
popular conscienceS for centuries, but
those who commit crimes only rendered
possible by the complex conditions OF
our modern Industrial life. 1t makes
not a particle Of difference whether
these crimes are committed by q cap
italist or by a laborer, by q leading
banker or manufacturer or railroad
man, or by a leading representative OF
q labor union.

Income Tax and Inheritance Tax.


When our tax laws are revised the
question OF an income tax and an in
heritance tax should receive the careful
attention of our legislators. In my
judgment both OF these taxes should be
part of our system of federal taxa
ton. I speak di%ff1dently 0 the in
come tax because n scheme for an
income tax was declared unconstitu-
tional by the supreme court; while In
addition 1t is a difficult tax to admins
ter in It's practical working, and 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, for If so evaded 1t would, OF
course. be worse than no tax at all;
as the least desirable Of all taxes is the
tax which bears heavily upon the hon
est as compared with the dishonest
man. Nevertheless, a graduated In
come tax of the proper type wouid be a
desirable feature of federal taxation,
and it is to be hoped hat one may be
devised which the supreme court will
declare constitutional. The inheritance
tax, however, is both a far better
! method of taxation, and far more i'm
portant for the purpose Of having the
fortunes Of the county bear in propor-
ton to their increase in size a corre-
spending increase and burden of tax
alton.

actual handling OK the railroads, and
all this as rapidly as. possible. Ample,
safe and speedy transportation facili-
ties are even more necessary than
cheap transportation. Therefore, there
is need for the investment OF money
which will provide for all these things
while at the same time securing as far
as is possible better wages and shorter
hours for their employees. Therefore,
while there must be Just n reason
able regulation Of rates, we should be
the first to protest against any arbi-
trary and unthinking movement to cut
them dow without the fullest and
most careful consideration Of all in
~terests concerned and Of the actual
needs of the situation. Only n spe-
cial body OF men acting for the ma
tional government under authority con-
ferred upon 1t by the congress is COM
petent to pass judgment on such a

The loss of life and limb from rail-
road accidents in this country has be-
come appalling. 1t is a subject Of
which the national government should
take supervision. 1t might be well to
begin by providing for a federal in

where along the lines of federal inspec-

SO far; perhaps at first all that it
would be necessary to have would be
