The Tariff and the Tax Burden.

III.
Whether the new congress can agree
upon a revision of the tariff that will
receive the approval of the president,
is highly doubtful. But dubiety about
presidential approval does not absolve
it from making the effort.
Not only did the present tariff sys-
tenn, built by the democratic sixty
fourth congress, demonstrate it's COM
plete failure in the months it was in
effect before the war broke out, but
the changed conditions that will exist
when wars restraint of trade is ended
would make a tariff revision impera-
tive in any event.
The democratic idea of a tariff is
one that will produce revenue to run
the governmental machine; the repub-
lican idea Of a tariff is one that will
also stimulate industry, maintain
wages and induce general prosperity.
Two supreme duties confront the
new congress: To reduce as rapidly
as possible the wasteful war-induced
expenditures Of the government; and
to tighten the great burden of war
taxation by scientific revision of the
revenue laws. Within the scope of
the second duty is the readjustment of
the tariff schedules, so that they will
not only yield large revenues by the
indirect method that is so much more
easily borne than direct taxes, but will
apply powerful stimulus to the pro-
ductivity Of all American industries.
Incidentally, we have some real Gin
fo yof iY1 cfri IN ho 4fk ~,
dustries that have been established to
supply products formerly imported
from Germany. The principal one of
these is the dye industry, which has
been successfully acclimated here, but
will need for some time the protection
of tariff barrier against the revived
German making of dyestuffs, as we'll
perhaps as against the new British in
dustry. In various phases of chemical
manufacturing, too, American enter
prise has supplied the lack caused by
the disappearance from the market of
German products. Production should
be given to these new industries.
Congress should revise the whole
system of tariff schedules on basis
of production stimulation, instead of
on the present plan of throwing Amer
lean markets wide open to destructive
foreign competition. If the president
should interpose veto Tor such legis-
latlon, the responsibility for the fail
ure to meet new conditions would he
entirely his. And the new measures
would serve as a good basis for an
other measure to be passed by the en-
suing congress, in the event that the
people give such a mandate on election
day in November, 1920. -Minneapolis

Opposed to Militar:ism.

The following communication is
from one of The home boys who, before
entering the service, resided at Pease.
Editor of Union:
Reading in the different papers
pieces on the advantage of universal
military training, I am asking the
editor to also allow me space for this
all important question.
In many respects this subject is
new to us and therefore proper for
the hearing of both sides.
In this article no effort will be made
to elaborate on the question, but rather
to draw out public opinion as to what
we really want. We know that when
we are preparing ourselves for a pur-
pose and have reached its highest
efficiency that the results will follow.
This is just what took place in Eu-
dope: Germany had been preparing
herself for over forty years when
finally she had reached her highest
efficiency in military training and the
results followed. We also know that
military training is most dangerous to
democracy. Do we want to adopt this
SyStc1u WulCIl Has 1lSdIAy 1U1uOu cu-
rope and which has brought immense
losses and misery to mankind the
world over?
Do we want to make hypocrites of
ourselves before the world by first
sending our boys over there to crush
militarism and then afterwards adopt
ing it ourselves?
Of course not. Well, then, let US be
careful not to play into the hands of
the militarist, who is now ready to
introduce his art in our schools, etc.
The war profiteers and few others
that are holding nice fat jobs at our
expense are now recommending to us
how necessary it is to have military
training.
Unless the people wake up we are
likely to have militarism fastened up
on us under cover of physical train
ing, better citizenship and various
other coverings, which interested par
ties with ready mouth and pen know
so we'll how to conduct.
Are we going to listen to these or to
the millions Of soldiers who have
fought and suffered to make men
free? G. A.,
