NEW TAXATION

The FAX SahGrc"$ ~ Washington
have Indicated large nIulbrr al
things from which additional revenue
may be raised. and legislators in The
House Of Representatives are aNpar-
ientfy anxious to Increase tax burdens.
zone patriotic ,lawiuaHcr declares uIa:
AL incomes over 100000 per year shall
BE confscated Another brilliant leg
tlstato. informs US that he once used
nails to bod up his pants and he
thinks the public may be taxed until
even buGtUaS disappear.
This is not only arrant nonsense. II
is dangerous. Translated into leE1sla-
ton, coniscation OF wealth simply
means tho destruction Of enterprise
and industry. Strange as If nay seem.
even ii ;irc OF war men work vita
the hands and their brains and their
money. for the purpose Of making l
! profit ii some form or other. and The
surest way 70 nlaiutatn prosperity IS
to create conditions thar enable tnrn
ito conduct industry and employ Labor.
ut is we'll understood. Of course, that
FOUR country needs = vast sum o. money
fthis yea- and next wear. There should
be no Q:!phlinS about ito amount that
Is necessary. We can only accept the
ma ture judSrlcr' az hc war and naval
chiefs, who are b,ut!eued with respon-
:sibility.
How this vas. sum should be raised
is another question.
First. necessities OF life should not
ibe taxed. The COST OF living is. already
high enough in most families AMI
should not oe increased.
\ Second. taxes should not 20 I'M
! posed upon ESSENTIAL industries. ~
even on non-essoutial Industries that
furnish support 70 iarSe numbers Of
pco7le
The most impor'an: fling while the
war lasts is 10 continue 50 far as pos
sible. The undis;urhed course OF trade
and industry. sahi"ct. nt course. TO the
nation's supreme needs. The moro Or
binary trade and Industry can be car
r;ed or III" greater will DO the 'coun-i
t-y'S capacity - p..y taxes and to buy
bonds.
Back. however. of The whole subject
lis the question: How much Of rhe
governments revenues should be
raised By taxa ton and how much BY
bond issues: The Tntrlli"encer no.
1ieves that 4 worry much greater sum
might safely be raised BY bond issues
without materially increasing imm"
date tax burdens. There is no GOOD
reason why hi: generation. ALREADY
bearing unusual ka-Gshi7s. should a.
sumo unnecessary burdens that could
. BE- safely passed on 70 another genera
ton.
AS to methods Of taxation. il is rn.y
! doubtful e any ,,r':er method will Go
! found than the graduated income tax.
: The present law has many uncertain
ties in it. which. however. are being
cleared Up. It tias p0o:"n workable.
Il has yielded az "n"rmouS revenue.
J and with Wis" notifications will prove
probably as cffecrirr and satisfactory
/ as an Law that can b" devised.
