The Pure Food Laws

Tho following statement from
Dairy and Food Commissioner Foust
will be read with interest: ICON.
siderable agitation has recently been
aroused owing 70 reported violations
OF the OleomErgarine Law in u Ger.
tain section of the state. As Dairy
and Food Commissioner, desire to
say that whenever ard wherever vic
lations OF tho Olsomargarine or other
Pure Food Laws are discovered by
this Bureau, or reported 10 It, they
are prosecuted 10 tho full extent of
the law. The Oleomargarlne Law,
like the Liquor and other similar
lave, is extremely difficult to enforce
and while violations occur now, and
always have occurred, it is the pur
pose OF this Bureau to reduce viola.
tions to a minimum and to punish 20
the maximum every violator of the
provisions of the law. To this end 1
solicit information that will enable
this Bureau to locate any violations
Of the O.eoInargarine Law that may
occur in any part of the State.
This Is particularly solicited from
Sairymen, and especially from the
public press, which has much to do
with the formation of public senti-
ment. While public sentiment is
strong against wrong-doing general.
iy, and properly so, it is unfortunate
that public sentiment In certain parts
of the State is more or less opposed
TO the enforcomen of the Olemargar-
inc Law, aud for this reason in its
fight for Observance of the law this
Bnreas invites he co operation and
anPport of every newspaper, every
organization and every individual in
the Commonwealth.
The following extracts from the rec
ords Of this office show the activity OF
the Bureau from the date Of the ap.

NEWS FROM
WASHINGTON

President Taft stands sqnarely be.
hind the tax on the net earnings OF
corporations and he advocates il NOT
merely as an expedient with which
TO sidetrack the income tax. He
believes it TO be q highly desirable
form OF taxation because it is the first
step in carefully devised system Of
federal control of corporations, and
the next step, federal supervision Of
all issues Of stocks ana bonds, he will
recummed to Congress il his first
annual message. The President will
not assent to any substitution in con.
ference Of tho inheritance tax for
this tax on corporations, nor does he
believe that any such subtitution IL
contemplated. though many rumors
to this effect have been flying abont
the country recently. The republi-
can members Of the Finance Com
mittse declare they have no intention
of any such substitution and the
house leaders including the Speaker,
predict with confidence that the cor.
poratiOn tax will bc enacted as a
part Of the tariff bill. These facts.
together with much other interesting
information, were brought out at
the White House this week. where
President loft talked freely with

The President mado clear his
views, also, regarding the variou.
forms Of special taxation which have
been suggested in connection with
the current dl flciency of The federal
revenues. Above all other forms OF
special taxation Mr.. Taft prefers a
graduated income rax. which lie he.
lieves 1t would be improper to enact
under tho circumstances until its
constiiutionaliiy is placed beyond
question. He is Of the opinion that
every man should contribute through
u direct lax fair proportion ,of his
income to. the maintenance of the
government not only fer the sake Of
the revenue such tax would yield.
but because such contribution would
bring home TO every man a realiza
tion of his responsibility to and for
the government OF his country He
does not believe, however. that an
income tax determined by an nrlih-
meiical ratio would be a fair tax.
He is coevinced that IL the man who
has an income of 81, 200 a year con.
tributes / per cent OF that amount to
the support Of the government, the
man With an income of $4,000 a year
should contribute higher percent
age, say 2 per cent, and a man Whose .
income reaches into the tens Of
thousands should contribute possibly
5 per cent or more, and so ON. Mr..
Taft regards stamp tax as a proper
revenue measure for an emergency,
but as lacking in considerable degree
that tendency to correct evils Of dis-
tribution which would be accom-
plished by either a graduated income
tax or a graduated inheritance tax.
And last, the corporation tax, which
President Taft regards as highly
desirable from every point of view +;
primarily because it will insure a
degree of federal inspection and
public knowledge of the transactions
Of all corporations, thrs fitting IN
with his general sconomic plans in
so far as they, relate TO corporations,
and, secondarily, because 1t will
yield ample revenue to obviate any
deficiency.
Pike County press. (Milford, Pa.) 1895-1925, 1909-07-09

The President takes emphatic
Issue with the allegations that the
corportion tax is Unjust, that it will
not reach the wealth OF the country.
He firmly believes that it win reach
men Of wealth and he further be.
lieves that in the majority of cases
bond holders are also stockholders,
that they are compelled to hold stock
IN order to protect their bonded
interests. In short, Mr.. Taft regards
the corporation tax as a tax on wealth
and as sneh as wholly just and
prOper.

JAMES j. HILL RETURNS. /
Brings Report of Good Crops from
the Northeast.

james J. Hill returned 20 this city yesterday froro
Minneapolis after an absence of several weeks IN
the Northwest. He said crops were good and
that. while there would not be bumper harvest az
wheat, the crop would be little better than the
average Spring wheat. Mr.. Hill said had been
hurt by the drouth, and the weight a bushel
would be reduced Mr. Hill said he understood the
corn crop would be a good one. Business condi
tons in the country generally We're good he said
and were steadily improving
Asked regarding the future development of the
Hill lines, he said new extensions were beinp
planned at present The relations with other roads
he added were the same as they had been for the
last thirty years and there was not now and never
had been any pooling OF traffic. Every road. he
said, was out for all the traffic it could get In re-
gard to a report that the Chicago Burlington &
Quincy was TO be made more independent road
he said that II was pretty independent now. and
that its owners were satisfied with present condi-
tions.
Regarding the report OF Professor Milton Whit
ney chief Of the Bureau of Soils of the Agricultural
Department, in which he asserted that the soils of
the United States were not wearing out and that
the crop yields increasing rather than decreas-
ing' Mr. Hill said the consumption OF wheat was
increasing at the rate of twelve million to fifteen
million bushels year. but TO whether the pro-
ouction here was increasing in the same proportion
he was not prepared TO say.
