My Dear Friends: There are
three things | very much wonder at.
The first is, that children should
throw stones, clubs and brickbats up
INTO the fruit trees to knock down
fruit; if they would let it alone it
would fall itself The second is, that
men should be SO foolish and SO
wicked as to go to war and kill each
other; if let alone they would die
themselves. And the third and last
thing | wonder at is, that young men
should be so unwise as to go after
the young women; If they would stay
at home the young women would
come after them.

10 the average citizen Secretary
McAdoo's position seems we'll taken.
Most small and local corporations are
capitalized at an actual valuation.
Many OF the very large corporations
are greatly overcapitalized; the stock
oil some oil them has been repeatedly
Watered. With only an excess profits
tax corporation earning o per cent
on grossly watered capital will pay
the same tax as another corporation
not overcapitalized earning 10 per
cent on the real, actual valuation of
the money and property invested in
It's business. The profits of the first
corporation might be 30 per cent on
its actual valuation, and it is to cover
such cases that war-profits tax is
urged.
AS many of these large corpora
tons are engaged in government
work and drawing huge sums from
the United States, it seems particu-
larry just that they should pay taxes
On the same actual basis as corpora
tions not overcapitalized. A tax that
taxes equally a 10 per cent profit on
watered capital and a 10 per cent
profit on unwatered capital is not
equal nor uniform nor just.

toward their own frontier
We at home have something more
TO do than smile and congratulate
ourselves over the victory of our
boys, 1t now devolves upon us to
prove that we are worthy of their

The Fourth Liberty Loan drive
viii start September 20 and close Oc-
tober -. The objective of that drive
Is to secure at least six billion dollars
to be used in winning the war against
the central powers. The best way to
show our gratitude to and pride in
our fighting men is to emulate their
example by going into this drive JOY
fully and attaining our objective
promptly. In this county it is not
advisable to go beyond the objective
set, by oVersubscribing our quota, be-
cause the light crop makes it impera-
tive for all to carefully husband their
resources for future calls, but we can
show our patriotism and enthusiasm
by carrying out the campaign with
such dash and enthusiasm as to reach
our quota promptly. We ought to
reach it in day, at most in week
We could do nothing which would
have more encouraging and stimu-
lating effect on our boys and our al
Les than to subscribe the full amount
of the Fourth Liberty Loan so gladly
and quickly as to show that the folks
at home not only glory in their
achievements but are determined to
back them to the limit
Our part in the big offensive in
France is to follow-up our fighting
men with all the money and re-
sources necessary to enable them to
continue their advance to Berlin.

WAR-PROFITS AND EXCESS
PROFITS TAX

by a war-profit tax we mean a
tax upon profits in excess of those re-
allied before the war.
by an excess-profits tax we mean
q tax upon profits in excess of a given
return upon capital.
THE theory of a war-profits tax is
to tax profits due to the war.
The theory of an eXcess-profits
tax is to tax profits over and above
given return on capital. The ex-
cess-profits tax falls less heavily on
big business than on small business
because big business is generally
oyercapitalized and small businesses
are often undercapitaliZed.
THE war-profits tax would tax al
war profits at one high rate; the ex-
cess-profits tax does and for safety
must tax all excess profits at lower
and graduated rates"
The above extract from Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo's testimony
before the house ways and means
committee gives his differentiation
between war-profits and excess
profits taxes and explains his posi-
ton in urging upon congress an ex'
ss-profits tax with an alternative
war-profits tax in the Forthcoming
revenue legislation.
