No More Huge Fortunes

There are more opportunities for
making money today than ever he
fore, because markets are more ex-
tensive and there is more wealth to
exchange. The opportunities will
doubtless continue growing. And yet
the day of immense fortunes rs pass
ing. 1t isn't likely that the next gen.
Grafton will produc any Rockefellers,
Carnegies and Morgans, In this
country or any other.
The paradox Is easily explained.
With vaster opportunities for money
making, and with business men ~
able as any we have produced, gifted
individuals will not be permitted to
accumulate huge fortunes, or will
not be permitted to keep them.
The hand writing on the wall Is
plain enough. 1t Is plainest in Europe
where mild distribution Of big for
tuner had already begun before the
war, and where those fortunes are
now being taxed at unhsard Of rates
to meet the enormous war expensss.
II the war goes on much longer, 1t
is possible that the average rich
man" will have to give half his In
come to the state. And II an income
is SO big that the half left by the
tax collector leaves enough surplus
to grow into big fortune, there In
sure to be further partitioning at this
owners death.
1t ia unlikely that these taxes will
tighten after the war, even II the
competition in armament dies down.
The payment Of interest on the pub
lie debt will be an enormous drain on
the resources OF every beiiigerent.
There will be vast sums needed, too,
to take care of disabled soldiers and
their families, to restore ruined pro-
perty and to undertake public enter
prises for the general welfare Of
society.
The situation in America 10 DIFF
ferent only in degree. Our taxes are
growing steadily. 1t isn't likely
they will shrink again; taxes never
do. And we are adopting the same
devices as Europe. Today congress In
planning to increase the income tax
and impose an inheritance tax. And
both of these are progressive" sa
they are abroad. the rate increasing
with the dimensions OF the income or
estate.
These forms OF taxation are sure to
assume more and more Importance.
1t Is inevitable because more and
more money will be needed for public
purposes, because the great major
ity is recOnciled to them, and because
the comparative few on whom they
fall lack power to oppose them sue
cessfully.
Thus here, as in Europe, old for
tunes will be broken up, and the &C.
emulation Of new fortunes prevent
ed.
There will be more wealth, but 1t
will be more generally distributed.
There will be fewer men worti,
500, OOO,OOO, very many more worth
100000 and incomarably more worth
$4,000. That's the theory, anyhow.
And II it will work that way, most
Of US can view the rising income
taxes with equanimity. Fort Col

How to Give Good Advice

The best way to give good advice is
to set good example. When others
see how quickly you get over your
cold by taking Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy they are likely to follow your
example. This remedy has been in
use for many years and enjoys an ex-
cellent reputation. Obtainable every
where.
