HUGHES AND INCOME TAX.

Nobody is so careless in the han
ding of facts as are the partisans of
politics. And few are apparently so
deficient in a knowledge of what
might be classed as current political
history, but perhaps purposely, as are
the Democratic statesmen.
For instance, Immediately after thu
national conventions were held, one of
the Democratic congressman from
Missouri. Representative Borland. as
serted that Charles Evans Hughes,
when governor of New York, opposed
the income tax:
This charge. of course, happens to
be far from being in accord with the
attitude of Mr.. Hughes on this big and
important question, and as one of New
York's congressman, Representative
Bennett. was quick to point out to
Representative Borland.
Representative Bennett presented
quotations showing that Governor
Hughes expressly favored an income
tax, but opposed making the tax ap-
plicable to the proceeds of state or
municipal bonds, because such an ap-
plication of the tax would place the
borrowing capacity of states and mu-
inequalities at the mercy of the fed
eral government.
And Representative Borland was
also hoisted by his own petard for an
examination of the provisions of the
income tax law shows that in drafting
1t the Democrats did not make it ap-
plicable to the proceeds of state and
municipal bonds. and thereby went on
record as indorsing the position in re-
spect to this legislation that Governor
Hughes had taken

HIGH PRICED INEFFICIENCY.

It is becoming increasingly harder
for industry to get enough labor to
keep all the wheels turning, says the
Annalist. From New England comes
word that no less than 10 per cent of
the cotton spindles in that section are
idle because of lack of hands to
operate them. Similar complaints
from other industries and other parts
Of the country come in steadily larger
numbers. 1t is the most disturbing
element in the business situation,
especially as prices have reached a
point at which the resistance to fur
Their advances is becoming very great
Prosperity would be threatened by
prices so high as to check consump-
ton, because that is something which
reacts upon the whole commercial
structure.
From the manufacturers point of
view the situation is aggravated by
other factors. Not only has the labor
shortage compelled him to pay wages
higher than were ever paid before, hut
| he must pay them to labor which is,
on the average, considerably less skill
full than his working force of year
First National bank of Philadelphia,
remarked recently that employers
are facing a situation where they are
asked to pay from 10 to 40 per cent
higher wages than formerly for labor
that is from 25 to so per cent less eff
! ficient. That affects the payroll in
two ways. First the rate of wages is
higher, and, second, the product per
man is lower. Therefore wages per
unit of production must have in
creased greatly, while inefficiency
makes it necessary to employ more
men to produce the same quality of
goods, thus intensifying the labor
shortage.
But these things are to some extent
the natural results of an unparalleled
condition, and labor can hardly be
blamed for lack of skill on a new job
or for the shortage of supply. There
are, however. signs that too much
prosperity is causing workers to lose
their heads. One report tells of men
SO prosperous that they refuse to work
full time, and won't consider overtime
at all. Others tell of demands so
broad in scope as to preclude the pos
are closed. Still others relate that
workmen, certain that they cannot be
replaced under present conditions
continually soldier on the job" so that
their daily product falls below the
normal standard in quantity and
quality.
If these things are true, and it is
probable that they are in some cases
as they always have been in the past
when there was a labor shortage
labor is storing up trouble for itsel1
and for the whole community Nc
reasonable man would begrudge the
laborer a fair, even liberal, share OF
the profits which are created largely
through his work. But the only way
that high wage rates can be main.
} tanned permanently. or higher one.
