Did Germany ever do anything other than wrong?
Discussion of the peace delegates relative to what is to
be done with the surrendered German fleet brings out
the fact that everything is wrong with them to prevent
their successful use by any of the allied nations. The
machinery is on a different scale, threads on the wheels
turn left handed and even the electric light sockets are of
an odd size. 1t is said that the cost of putting a German
dreadnaught into shape for use by the United States navy
would be $~5,000,000.

 permanent system which will reach undue profits without discouraging the enterprise and activity of our business men. The tax on inheritances ought, no doubt, to be reconsidered in it's relations to the fiscal systems of the several states, but it certainly ought to remain a permanent part of the fiscal system of the federal gov-t ernment also.
 Taxes Now Useless. s'
 Many of the minor taxes provided for in the revenue legislation of 1917 and 1918 though no doubt many necs essary by the pressing necessities of wartime could hardly find sufficient, justification under the easier circums stances of peace and can now happily be got rid of. Among these, 1 hope you will agree, are, the exercises upon various manufacturers and the tax upon retail sales. They are unequal in the incidence on different indus tries and on different individuals. Their collection is difficult and ex- pensive. These which are levied upon articles sold at retail are largely evad- ed by the readjustment of retail prices. On the other hand, I should assume that it is expedient to main tain considerable range of indirect taxes; and the fact that alcoholic liquors will presently no longer afford it the more necessary that the field source of revenue by taxation makes should be carefully re-studied in order that equivalent sources of revenue may be found which it will be legiti- mate and not burdensome to draw up- on. But you have at hand in the treasury department many experts who can advise you upon the matters much better than l can. l can only suggest the lines of a permanent and workable system, and the placing of the taxes where they will least ham, per the life of the people.

The fig ures to which those obligations have arisen are very great indeed, but they are not so great as to make it diffi- cult for the nation to meet them and meet them, perhaps, in single gen. eration, by taxes which will neither crush nor discourage. These are not so great as they seem, not so great as the immense sums we have had to borrow, added to the ,immense sums we have had to raise by taxation would seem to indicate; for a very large proportion of those sums were raised in order that they might be loaned to the governments with which we were associated in the war, and those loans will, of course, con- stitute assets, not liabilities and will not have to be taken care of by our taxpayers. The main thing we shall have to care for is that our taxation shall rest as lightly as possible on the productive resources of the coun- try, that it's rates shall be stable, and that it shall be constant in its reven- ue yielding power. We have found the main sources from which it must be drawn. take it for granted that it's will henceforth be the in come tax has already been provided for by the act of 1918, but think you will find that further changes can be made to advantage both in the rates of tax and the method of its collect ion.
