fired by the Luthenians just at the mo-
mcnt when the Polish students had bar

chairs to prevent the Luthenians from
entering The latter then fired in the
air. and dealt blows among their foes
with iron bars. a Luthenan theologi-

shot through the head and conveyed to

SENATOR BORAH
Declares Every Dollar of Taxation
Is Levied on CONSUMPTION and
Not on Wealth.

NEW YORK, March Ex-senator
Borah, of Idaho and Lawson Purdy,
president of the department of taxes
and assessments of New York city,
both argued tonight before the Eco
nomic club in favor of a federal in
come tax, that it will impose on the
people sense of responsibility and
a growing habit of economy in gov
ernmental expenditures.
Senator Borah spoke of Senator
Aldrich's S recent statement that $780,
100000 expenditure could be saved
to the government by business meth
DDS.
eff that be true" he continued,
''it reveals political crime in which
both political parties are partici-
pants. If that be true it is evidence
that the disease which has destroyed
every republic has fastened itself on
us.
"Who is paying this total? Ev-
cry dollar is levied on consumption,
not one dollar on wealth. So long
as that is true there will be no ef-
fort on the part of wealth to stop
such vicious extravaganza"
