Tuesday, August IS, 1916.

1t is a pleasure to speak well of
the stock market when it is in one
Of its rational moods. 1t was
strong. Steel common sold at S912,
Enthusiastically, apparently without
much effort of buying. That is the
highest point touched this year 50
far. Railroad issues also were
strong, on cumulative evidence for
the probability of a peaceable
settlement of the wage question.
What the railroads yield will lie
balanced by the advantage of hav-
ing put upon the Administration
the responsibility for increasing
payrolls. That will tell when again
they are before the Interstate Com
merce Commission with an applica
ton to raise rates. Wages once
raised stay up. Earnings are
tickle.

Business, which in many direc-
tons had been wavering, appears 70
have started at full tilt again. The
impulse is derived mainly from the
placing of new war orders on a
very large scale. The returns are
not all in. Several big contracts
are still to be announced. Thus,
immediate misgivings as to the state
of industry are dispersed, and, al
though the fact that Europe has
resumed the buying of war NUM-
tions in a large way, is in one sense
an i'll omen, seeming to presage a
continuation of the war. yet it IS
the kind of business on which our
special prosperity is built. There
fore. thoughts of reimbursement are
postponed. This is what the stock
market reflects, especially in the
steel shares. 1t is understood that
some very large blocks of United
States Steel common have recently
been taken over by private negotia-
ton between two strong banking
groups. If that is true, CORE
spending amount of liquidation has
been deferred.

resentment because the United States
or the neutrals did not join in the
war. The purpose Of the proposed
development is protective rather than
aggressive. For two years military
necessity has been the supreme
consideration and, as result, the
economic organization of the empire
will be under a serious handicap
when peace comes. Only by standing
together-the dominions with the
mother country-can the empire sue
cessfully survive the trade competi-
ton of neutrals in its own markets
But such temporary protection is not
the sole aim. Wars are fought with
materials even more than with man.
power. Complete preparedness in
wolves effective mobilization and de-
yelopment of all available resources.
Economic dependence is, or may cas-
iIy be, fatal. 1t is hoped, therefore,
to develop the empires resources SO
that it will be self-sustaining, so far
as necessities and war materials are
concerned.

Wall Street expects to find in the
announcement of the new British
loan, or in some adjacent authorize
tive comment, the intimation that
the stock market for while will be
relieved of the weight Of foreign
liquidation. That remains to lie
seen. From the amount of dollar
securities that will probably appear
in the list of collateral pledged, 1t
could not be inferred that Europe
had been baled out. London I'M
doubtedly has modelled many more
securities than she will pawn in this
transaction. There will be a large
remainder. to be held either for
future borrowing or to be liquidated
as the opportunity serves. 1t IS
possible, however, that some under
standing may have been reached
with her as to how the remainder
shall be handled. An agreement 90
withhold liquidation for a stated
time would be feasible. At all
events. it may be said that extra
mains have been taken to insure the
success of the new loan. The
syndicate has been carefully formed.
Lessons learned in the floating OF
the Anglo-French loan will ne
applied.

The above rates express the cost OF
foreign money in terms Of the Amer
lean dollar. You buy an English pound
sterling for 4.75 l1-l6, the intrinsic
parity is s4.s6ss per pound. Thus. you
say either that pounds are at dis
count or that dollars are at premium.
which is owing to the fact that IN Eng
land the demand for dollars with which
10 settle accounts in this country IS
greater than the demand in this coun-
try for pounds with which to settle
accounts in England.
If you calculate the cost Of the dol

The Income Tax.

Inc polltlcal strength OF Ine III
come tax in this country is its class
availability. 1t can be increased on
almost any pretext. 1t is easier, for
instance, to double the normal rate
of the tax, raising from / to per
cent, than to widen the base by put
ting the line of exemption lower.
The moral weakness of the income
tax as now levied is that it falls on
fewer than 2 per cent of the house
holds. It's political availability is
in proportion to its moral weakness.
If the base were wider, it would not
be easier to double the rate than to
tax war profits as they deserve to
be taxed.
Representative Claude Kitchin,
majority leader of the House, in a
letter to Representative j. Hampton
Moore, a member of the Ways and
Means Committee, stated the case
against putting the line Of eXemp-
ton lower. "The propaganda for
reduction of the exemption" he
says, comes from persons who are
being taxed for the most part. &.
What the propagandists really are
after is the 100000 or 100000 per-
sons who, they believe, would be-
come kickers against the income tax
system as soon as they are brought
within the classification of taxable
persons" Mr.. Kitchin is wrong
The fact is that the people who pay
the income tax have never objected
to it as tax. They have paid it
as cheerfully as it is possible for
people to pay taxes at all. Nor have
they objected seriously to what Mr..
Kitchin calls discrimination, if he
means the surtax. Every income
tax is so graduated that large in
comes pay more than small ones,
and this is discriminatory or not as
you happen to look at it. Up to the
beginning of the surtaX every one
who is taxed at all pays equally.
SO far there is no discrimination.
Above that line the rich pay in
creasingly more, and that is as it
should be. But what a great many
thoughtful persons do criticise, on
sound economic ground, whether
they pay the tax or not, is that the
line of exemption should be so high
as to leave out SO per cent of the
people. 1t is not a question of reve-
nue. primarily. 1t is not a question
of fairness, either. 1t is a question
of democracy. Is it socially de-
sirable that 90 per cent of the peo-
pie should tax the other per cent
in this way? The great moral ad-
vantage of q direct tax over an in
direct tax is that it makes people
conscious Of the cost of government,
and therefore more attentive to pro-
posals of new expenditure. Should
this kind of consciousness be limited
to 2 per cent of the people? Those
who wish the line of exemption TO
be lowered, in order to include a
larger number of incomes, are, as
Mr.. Kitchin says, mainly those who
now pay the tax. They are at the
same time advocating an increase
of the tax upon themselves. The
lower the line of exemption, the
more they would have to pay. If
Mr.. Kitchin thinks that by increas-
ing the number of taxable persons
the agitation against any income
tax would become overwhelming, he
is almost alone with his opinion.
The income tax once adopted and
constitutionally upheld is a perma-

CRITICS OF SHORT
LOAN DROP FIGHT
British Attacks on War
Finance of MCKenna
Not Pressed.
By FRANCIS w. HIRST.

London, Aug. 15.-As anticipated,
last weeks parliamentary criticism
of Chancellor of the Exchequcr
McKenna's war finance ended in
smoke. The critics did not press
their case against short term
finance. The arguments for a long
loan of monster dimensions would
have been stronger if the previous
loans had not been made convertible.
The rise in interest, which is a
natural concomitant of the heavy
war borrowing, makes against long
contracts with borrowers. Nor can
the interests of the taxpayers after
the war be wholly overlooked.
Already about one-sixth of the
capital of moderately rich people
has been confiscated by way of thu
income tax. The rise in prices
is hitting all the small pensioners
But after the war prices will fail
whereas the income tax is needed
to pay the interest and sinking fund
upon the dead weight debt.
Assuming that the war will last
at least another year, "The Man
chester Guardian" calculates debt
and pension charge of f330,000,00C
sterling, suggesting a post-bellum
budget of s550,OO0,OOO, or, say, a
quarter of the whole natural income
The extension of the dollar Sc
curities scheme TO other colonial
and neutral securities is a logical
step forward in war exchange
finance. The new scheme is even
more attractive to investors than
the old one, but as large investors
are large taxpayers the generosity
of the treasury is less striking than
it would be in a country which does
not enjoy a high and stitfiy
graduated income tax.
The splendid weather Of the past
month has provided a record hay
crop, and despite the labor short
age British agriculture this year
promises well.

The formal announcement OF the
British loan in this country Is pre-
coded by advertisements from The
British government to "Britons
Overseas" soliciting them to put
their money directly into British .
per cent. Exchequer bonds. They
are appealed to both as investors
and patriots. The advertisement
will be found in another column.
This is to forestall a repetition Of
what happened with other loans in
this country and in Canada. Brit

sold in dollars. In Canada the buy
ing of the Anglo-French loan was
rather free, and now an effort IS
being made to get the investors out
of it and into Dominion issues.
British loans in this country are
meant for Americans only. This
advertising, of course, is not done
without the knowledge of those who
are to bring out the new British
loan.

London yesterday on the Celtic for the
account of J. p. Morgan d Co. The
metal was deposited at the United
States Assay Office. This is the first
direct shipment of gold from London
in more than month. Recent ship
ments have originated in Ottawa. Total
gold imports from both Canada and
England since the current movement
began in May approximate 1920, 100000.

Handicaps.

The increase in national debt on
account of the war alone will prove
a real handicap to the mother coun-
try and the dominions in competi-
ton with neutral trade. Take the
case of Canada: The federal gov
ernment's Indebtedness on account
Of the war will certainly reach
$500, 100000, and probably exceed it.
The war appropriation to date is
$500, 100000. At 5 per cent the an
nual interest on S500,000,000 will
amount to S25, 100000. Or, to state
the situation in another form, the
war will have placed debt of at
least $40 on every man, woman and
child in the Dominion through fed
eral finance alone. The provincial
governments, too, have found 1t
necessary to impose new taxation.
The Province of Ontario now levies
a war tax Of l mill on the dollar OF
the assessed value of all real prop
erty in the province. municipalities
have been spending freely to meet
war obligations, and local taxes are
correspondingly high. In many OF
the rural districts contributions for
the Canadian Patriotic Fund are
raised by a direct tax. Through the
Patriotic Fund and several indie
pendent organizations doing the
same work S15,OO0,OO0 have been
raised in support of soldiers de-
pendents. This and several other
war appeals are so imperative that
they really amount to a tax. The
citizens of Toronto have responded
to such appeals to the extent of
S7,5OO,OOO. Insurance Of soldiers
by the municipalities constitutes an
ether heavy obligation. Toronto's
liability on account of insurance of
soldiers is no less than S30,000,O00.
Fight or pay" has been the slogan
in Canada, and it will be a case of
keep on paying" Financial bur-
dens for many years will be heavier
than those of neutral states.

Common Necessities.

The principal factor impelling to
closer imperial trade relations is
common necessity. There is no spite
in it, no bitterness against neutrals.
Trade federation, if it is effected,
will have as its chief argument the
preservation Of the British Empire
and its strengthening against ag-
erosion, economic or military. So
far as Canada is concerned, there is
a realization of the difficult position
