FREE BRIDGES
IN FIVE YEARS
Jersey and Pennsylvania Have
Made Appropriations
READY TO BUY STRUCTURES
Can Condemn, However, If Owners
Show Disposition to Boost Prices
First to Be Made Free May Be
One at PhiIIipsburg.

Especial Trenton Correspondence.)
Trenton.-In five years time there
will not be a toll bridge across the
Delaware between New Jersey and
Pennsylvania, if the Legislatures of
the next four years follow the lead of
the 1916 session, which made the pre-
hminary appropriation of 100000 for
the work. Pennsylvania has already
appropriated its 500, 600, and nothing
remains to be done but get the money
November 1 next, when it becomes
available, and put through the initial
steps of the plan.
John A. Campbell, of this city, a
member of the New Jersey and Penn
sylvania Free Bridge Commission, has
notified the members of his commits
sion and the proper authorities of
Pennsylvania that the money has been
appropriated and immediate action
will follow. Although Mr.. Campbell
does not know just when the. first
of the conferences will be held, he in
dicated that no time would be lost
in proceeding with the work.
1t is thought that the first bridge
to be made free will be the two span
ming the river at Trenton and the one
between Phillipsburg and Easton.
These are the most used of all the toll
bridges and the commits sion feels that
the first structures bought should be
those that will give the greatest bene-
fits to the Users. 1t is the desire to
acquire the bridges by amicable nego-
tiations, but if any attempt is made
at raising prices there will be no hest
fancy about beginning condemnation
proceedings and the question of pro-
cedure has already been gone INTO.
The commissions have already much
of the necessary data for use in the
negotiations for the purchase of the
bridges, but a great part of this in
formation will have to be revised and
a number of important changes in the
original plans. Under the plans
adopted $4,000 will be appropriated
by each of the States each year for
five years, making $200,000 available
each year, or 81, 0GO, 900 in all. 1t is
roughly estimated that the 16 bridges
to be freed will cost thu two States
a total of 81, 600, 900, so all should be
free in five years.
Some of the toll bridges, particularly
those at Trenton aud the one at
Easton, have been decidedly profitable
business ventures for their private
owners, and it is rather expected that
In m instances pretty high de-
mands will be made in the way of
purchase price. If satisfactory ar
rangements cannot be made for the
two Trenton bridges, it is entirely
within the range of possibilities that
the commission will build a new and
free bridge which could be done for
an amount less than what might be
asked for the two, Such a plan of
action would divert traffic over the
new and free structure.

Republican Death KneII.

The Republican leaders have sound
ed the death knell of their party by
proclaiming that 1t is a party of the
North and not of the South; not a
national organization, but a sec. ;onal
organization" declared Col. William
F. Sapp, Democratic national commit
teeman of Kansas, in a recent inter
view. The Republican national COM
mittee has voted to reduce the South
ern representation in the convention.
This is a virtual declaration that the
Republican party does not represent
the South; but the North alone; it is
not a national organization. There
has been a lot of apparent enthusi-
asm among the Republicans of late,
for what reason am unable to under
stand. Certainly they cannot base
their optimism on poor business con.
d%itions, for as an old friend of mine
back in Kansas expressed it, business
is gettin' better every day and the Re-
publicans are THROWN a fit"

Loanina government Money.

True it is that in 1888 the Repub-

tipued the same policy during every
month of his four years of occupancy
of the White House. \

administration, so it was under Nc

LEADS TO EVASION
Plan of Collecting Income Tax
Is Criticized.
New York World Advises a Change in
Methods, and Presents Arguments
UNFOLDING Its Vision of
the Situation.

Secretary McAdoo is right in the
view that the income tax needs
Tightening up" But it needs tight
ening up in more ways than requir-
ing the taxable citizen to make a de-
tailed return of deductions from gross
income.
The honest assessment of the tax
suffers primarily from the attempt to
collect at the source" This amounts
to an effort on the part of the gov
eminent to turn over the collection of
the individual tax to the corporations
at their own instead of the govern
ment's expense. Work which the gov
ernment's tax collectors are paid for
doing is passed on to those who are
forced to do it without compensation
and at NJ end of trouble.
This is not fair to the collecting
corporations. 1t is demoralizing to
the governments own collection serv-
ice. It has resulted in indescribable
confusion. 1t cannot but result in
many evasions which are not the in
tent of the taxpayer.
Taxable incomes may be derived
from a single corporate source, from
several corporate sources, from no
corporate source, or partly from n
and from the other sourc This ex-
poses the assessment to no end of
complications wide open even to hon
est evasions. But when the work is
further divided between corporation
assessors for incomes of corporate
origin and government assessors and
collectors for other incomes, how is
an effective assessment fairly to be
expected? Government collectors who
are required to shirk two-thirds of
their work cannot be depended on to
perform the other third.
Let the government go to the in
dividual in the first place, and count
upon the corporations only as infor-
nation bureaus in getting at the in
dividual and his taxable income. This
is the simple way; it must, accord
ingly. be the more effective way. 1t
is more in harmony with that spirit
of the tax which seeks to bring the
individual into a direct pocket rela-
ton with the government and the way
the government is managed.-New
York World.
