EDITORIAL NOTES
BY j. ID. WATSON

prevent Congress amending the law SO as to
make it an equitable and just one
We are running behind in our expense Of
government, even leaving the War Revenue
tax measure in force-without the added mil
lions that the increase in the army and navy
will cost us-We are running behind on cur
rent expenses just as they are now, and some
thing must be done to either curb expenses,
or to raise the money to pay the debts.
1t is a certainty that Congress will not'curb
expenses-it is a certainty that expenses will
be increased-so the only remedy is to find
some means of raising the revenue without
putting any heavier hardships on those who
now bear the brunt Of the expense of govern
ment.
The Supreme Courts decision opens the
way to get the extra money without making
the common people foot the bill.
Will CONGRESS take advantage of the oppor-
tunity?
Let the exemption remain where it is on
minimum incomes, but increase the tax on
bigger incomes-raise the grade on the per-
centage of tax levied in proportion to the
amount of income, and the tax will readily
yield an income to the government Of two
hundred millions of dollars or more, whereas
now it does not bring in one hundred million.
In this way the one hundred million or
more deficit that we see staring us in the face
for the next fiscal year would be practically
wiped out, and nobody would suffer.
Glance at the market page OF your news
paper almost any day, and you will see where
some corporation has paid an enormous divl-
dend-it is a common thing to see where this
corporation or that corporation is rolling up
wealth faster than the directors and officials
can count it.
Of course this money is going into some
body's pockets, and these vast fortunes that
are being accumulated on account of the war
should bear their just burden of the expense
Of the government that enables the getters Of
the fortunes to get them.
So rampant is the spirit Of prosperity
among certain class that you read where
Steel Trust Magnate's wife gives away Steel
Trust shares for premiums at Bridge party
again you read where an Oil Magnate is
offering two million dollars for the controll-
ing interest in the franchise of baseball club
In just one city.
So why not grade tht income tax so that
these mad spenders may at least pay their
proportionate share, instead of lowering the
exemption figure.
Instead of making the man who has an in
come of two thousand pay an income tax,
exempt incomes up to three, four or five
thousand, but increase the tax so that the man
with an income of one hundred thousand or
one million will pay in proportion to his
income.
No man, in lifetime, can legitimately ac-
cumulate property that will pay an income
of a million dollars, and tax of fifty per
cent. on incomes of that size would hurt no
one.
To some extent it would only be handing
back into the public treasury money that had
been stolen from private individuals.
