Income Tax Exemptions.
New York Tribune.

A correspondent whose letter is pur-
lished elsewhere on this page asks why
the newspapers have not more gen
orally condemned the unjust disCriml-
nations Of the Income Tax Law in ia
vor Of Government employees. The
Tribune has repeatedly criticised
Congress for creating a privileged
class of of1ceholding income tax slack
ers Now that the War Tax law is
being revised, this hierarchy OF tax
dodgers ought to be abolished
Our correspondent is wrong in
thinking that Federal employees and
State, county and municipal employees
enjoy the same degree of immunity.
There are two grades OF exempts. AL
public employees pay taxes on their pri-
vate incomes Federal employees pay
normal and super taxes on their
salaries, but are exempted from the
special per cent tax on individual
earnings in excess of $4,000.
Congress tried last fall to exempt its
own mem bership from the sO-called
excess individual profits tax Stung by
criticism, the House of Representa-
tiaes subsequently passed a resolution
waving exemption, on the ground that
Representatives and Senators are not
"OfiiCers under the United States
least so far as collecting pay checks
is concerned. A ruling by the Treas
ury Department confirmed this legal
fiction. COngressmen now pay income
taxes on the same basis as ordinary
citizens But other Officers under
the United States" are still exempted
from the excess individual profits tax
The real air-tiEht privileged class
consists of State, county and muntcip-
al officehoders They need not worry
about income tax rates. Every dollar
Of their compensation is made safe
from the Tax Collector by enactment
Of Congress. Congress acted ON the
ancient theory that comfy required
the Federal Government to abstain
from interfering in any way with the
instrumentalities of State government.
This theory is a judicial inheritance
from the time when fear of Federal
entertainments on State rights was
still acute. There would be something
10 say for this contention if the nation
should try to discriminate against or

The Real Bolsheyiki.
Baltimore Americana

There arrived in New Y DIRK on Tues
day tWenty-eight refugees from Odes-
sd, Russia, who had made their escape
by the Siberian route. They left OdeS-
50 three months ago, but were weeks
getting through to NladOstOll and
though they seem to have been origi-
nally BOsheViki in their way of think
ing, they have had opportunity of siz-
ing up the ideals, as these ideals have
been demonstrated practically. The
spokesman Of the party is an intelli-
gent woman, and according to the re
port of her narrative as given in the
New York Tribune she loves the beau
tiful theory of life and no work and
all joy, as proposed in the Bolshevi1
philosophy. but as 70 the practical
demonstration of this philosophy in
the Lenine-Trotzky gOvernm EMIT is
all to the bad and mono to the good.
Here's part of the picture Of Boshe-
vik rule in Russia as the spokesman
of the party gave it: "When they (thc
BolshevikD got into power all the rob-
bers and spies declared themselves to
be BOlSheVil1i.' BOlshcVikism soon
developed into general social, indus
trial and governmental decentralization.
'NObOdy wants to obey, everybody is
for himself" Bolshevism is already
divided into sections and parties.
"They all fight among themselves"
The Social RevoIutionists No. at
tack the Social Revolutionists No. 10,
and so on" When the Germans camc
MANY were glad they thought order
would be restored. But the Germans,
like hungry wolves, grabbed all tho
fOodstuffs and carried off machinery,
metals, even kitchen utensils" When
the revolution came the workmen
drove employers from factories, but
when they found that they could not
run the factories, they begged the
owners to return,
1t is a picture of BolsheVism from
the inside and from the knowledge Of
experience. There is nothing new
about it It only confirms scores Of
similar stories that are coming out OF
BOlSheVill ridden Russia.
