Revenue,

In closing the debate in the House
Saturday on the revenue measure Speak
er Clark characterized the income tax as
"the fairest tax that has ever been in
vented since man invented the tax sys-
tem," and then made this prediction:
GAS long as the world spins on its
axis and slides down to the elliptic no
political party of this country will ever
go to the people on proposition to re-
peal the income tax"
The question is not likely to come on
the repeal, but on the larger purposes
of the tax. 1t may be a logical and
proper form of raising revenue. But it
may be carried too far. A free horse
may be ridden to death.
Take the present case. We need a
large am, unit of additional revenue.
Both parties have indorsed the policies
that require it. For campaign reasons
the party in power refuses to revise the
Underwood law at this time. Where,
then, shall the money be founda
Instantly comes the reply: Double
the income tax. Nothing easier. Moth
ing more popular with the politicians.
Said pious old soul, quoting in homely
phrase a famous biblical text: "Them
that has, gifts" Say the politicians in
like fashion: "Them that has, pays"
But the time is coming when the I'm
derwood law will have to be revised !;
when taxes from importations will have
to be laid with view of raising more
money at the custom houses; when the
American markets as respects both capi-
tai and labor viii have to be considered
in the light of the new business con-
ditions the commissions of war are fore
ing on the world.
What shall be done then with the in
come taxa Who will propose to lower
it! And what will be the fate of the
proposition and of those who make and
support iti
There is another thing Why has no
proposition been made at this time of
pressing need to increase either the
whisky or the beer taxi Both remain
as they have been for years. Customs
schedules are changed and duties low
cred. Incomes are taxed, and the amount
of the tax doubled. Inheritances are
now to be assessed. But no voice is
raised in either party for the laying of
an additional cent of tax on the prod
uct of either the distillery or the brew
cry. t...
The reason is not far to seek Both
the distillers and the brewers are in
politics, and their patrons are legion.
A national campaign is opening. Can
didates for Office, big ana little, are con-
cerned about votes. And it is in this
way and for this purpose that the power
of the drink traffic is increased in poll
ties. Under cloture but little can be
said in the House on any subject. When
this revenue bill reaches the Senate,
where debate as yet is free, shall
we see Col Barleycorn and Col
Gambrinus challenged to show why
their wallets should not be tapped to
help out Uncle Sam in his hour of
need7

It hold to this principle H submarine
cargo boats are developed and put in
servicef
It may be argued on behalf Of the
allied powers that when Q merchant
man takes the form Of well estab-
ished fighting craft type she assumes
the risk that attends to that type. Ger
many undertook to set up the claim In
the case Of the Sussex that the vessel 80
strongly resembled warship that it
was justifable to attack her without
warning. She afterward withdrew this
claim on the presentation of proof that
the Sussex did not resemble a ship Of
war and that the submarine commander
acted precipitately. If, however, mer-
chantman distinctly took on the ex-
ternal appearance Of ship Of war un-
questionably her right to warning before
destruction would be greatly lessened, If
not lost altogether.
Obviously the powers now dominating
the surface Of the European seas can
not agree to any modification of the
warning rule for the sake of the newly
developed undersea merchantmen. Al
though there may be distinctly harm
less submarine type Of cargo boats the
fact that there are in service numerous
submarines of deadly capacity would
seem to justify them in insisting that
every boat of this type is fair mark
for attack. In short, the adoption Of
the submarine form involves a penalty
of risk.

Soap should be used very carefully.
