This is shown not only by rate
discrimination and high charges for
passenger traffic, but even more so
by stingy equipment, poor service
and the absolute disregard for human
life. Safety costs money. The num-
Der OF accidents on our railroads is
one of the most tragic chapters of
capitalism-our railroads kill and
MAIN more people every year than
war with a good-sized power would
cost us.
Source Of Corruption
IT shall say nothing about the rail
roads as a source of corruption in pol
itics. Nothing about their reckless
waste of national resources. Nothing
about the building of parallel lines
about running parallel trains at the
same time-about the unnecessary
and costly competition.
However, it is pretty generally
conceded that so-called government
control is ineffective-and that only
national ownership and government
management will serve the interest
of the public.
Better Service-Greater Safety
National ownership will undoubt-

greater safety. Moreover, Uncle Sam
with all his faults is yet the best
employer. National ownership, there

SOME FEATURES OF
AN INCOME TAX


Just what congress will do
with respect to the income tax
is something everyone is now
trying to ascertain. 1t has been
suggested that a fiat tax of l per
cent, or possibly 2 per cent. be
levied on all incomes in excess
of a certain amount. II has been
suggested that the income tax
be graduated from l per cent to
5 or 10 or even so per cent. 1t
has been suggested that the in
comes under SO. 500 a year be
exempt. Others would make
the limit 81. 600 or S., 900. Some
of the members of the Ways and
Means Committee want the fiat
tax and others want a graduated
tax. Many have favored taxing
incomes over 81, 600 on the basis
of ! per cent on all in excess Of
this sum. A congressman or
other citizen, therefore. with a
salary of $500 would pay / per
cent on SO, 500. or $35 a year: at
2 per cent he would pay $40 q
year.
The Ways and Means Commit
tee has been figuring on thls
problem with the aid of experts
who have been computing the
amount of income the national
treasury will receive from the
tariff, as proposed in the new
schedules. When the probable
amount of income has been de-
termined, the committee will
decide on what form the income
tax. feature will be mod ed. 1t
is understood that the income
tax will be made to bring in
whatever sum the tariff, the cor
poration tax, and the Internal
revenue tax fail to provide.
