HUN COMPETITION.

Objection is raised by German
expert on foreign trade to the ex-
portation of finished goods from
Germany, on the ground that the
effect is to deprive Germany of the
opportunity of buying homemade
things. The expert asserts that,
owing to the low exchange value of
the German mark, Germans can OBJ
tain abroad higher prices in marks
than they can at home. Even at
these export prices. he says, Ger
many is able to underbid the world
by about so percent.
To demonstrate how the low ex-
change rate for marks produces this
result, he cites as an example the
case of German manufactured
product sold in Holland. This cost
before the war 40 marks. which in
Holland amounted to about "a gull
den. The same article costs in
Germany today perhaps 100 marks.
the equivalent of only 20 gulden
Adding profit, freight. etc, the ar
ticle is sold in Holland at 26 gull
den, or little more than before the
war Thus, says the expert. Ger
many underbids foreign competitors
in their own countries.
The result is. he adds. that Ger
many receives so percent less mon
ey than might be obtained, and the
entire industry and trade of the
world is aroused against Germany
because of this unbeatable com
petition" Only the buyer who
comes to Germany is satisfied. while
the foreign manufacturer. unable to
produce so cheaply, shouts for pro-
lection against the German dump
ing" The expert asserts that En-
tente countries are planning meth
DDS to prevent this competition and
heavy customs duties are in sight
against German imports.
The writer takes issue with Rob
ert Schmidt. the economic minister.
who has denied that Germany is
dumping It's products on the world.
The expert advocates strict control
Of all exports by Germany. and pro-
hibition of the expectations of Ger
tain products. such as china, as the
only solution.

payers of the city but it does vitality
affect the reputation which the munich
pality may have as a going" financial
concern. The unexpected demand of the
school commissioners for the entire
amount which they were recently au-
thorized to demand and the jump in the
direct state tax were insuperable bar
riers to low, 'or even moderate tax
rate this year; and, recognizing those
conditions, the city council ought, we
believe, to have trimmed some of the
other operations, notably, perhaps, the
street department work, so that it would
not require more than the amount orig
inally appropriated. There is no doubt
that the streets have been considerably
improved during the spring months and
for that the citizens are thankful, but
rather than to increase the tax levy to
the very high rate Of S3.40, the people,
we believe, would consent to trimming
down of the operations for the remain
der of the year. 1t probably is good
economy to keep the roads in good con
dltion but it is also better economy to
avoid the reputation of being one of the
highest taxed communities in the state,
because of the depressing effect which
an excessive rate has on building work
and industry of all sorts. So The Times
feels that it was mistake to add the
extra 10 cents on the dollar of the grand
list in order to increase the street de-
partment appropriation $4,000 over the
$4,000 originally set apart for street
work

The credentials of that new Rhine re.
public will need to be examined rather
closely by the allies before official recog.
milton of the new government is given.
Besides that, there will be some doubt of
the new enterprise because of the fact
that the Germans have not paid the in.
demnity which the allies have called on
them TO turn over. With Alsace and
Lorraine taken from the German gov.
eminent by the allies, it means that
Alsace and Lorraine will not be asked to
participate in the task OF making up
the German indemnity. If the new
Rhine republic really splits off from
Germany and becomes recognized by
the allies, there may be some chance
that the new republic will endeavor to
repudiate its reasonable share of the
national obligation to the allies. Sc
these reported separations from the IA
therland will be considered rather care,
fully before the allies commit themselves
to any new policy.

Redistribution of Labor Needed.

When skilled mechanics and common
labor alike were being sent to the east
ern seaboard in response to wars de-
mands, it was held out that with the
restoration of normal life the balance
would be restored by a redistribution of
labor. The event has not justified the
promise. In the building trades this is
notably true. Omaha contractors say
they could have a notable campaign I'M
der way were it possible to secure car
penters, bricklayers and allied mechan-
les. These are not to be had, however,
for they are occupied in the East, at
good wages and under conditions that
suit them better than prospects held out
by the West. An Omaha employer wrote
to former foreman who went east on
war work, offering him his old job at
higher wages, and received reply to
the effect that the East is too good a
place to leave right now. In time condi-
lions may restore the balance in labor
distribution, now so disturbed, but for
the moment the Middle West is getting
the worst of the bargain. Bee

ORANGE COUNTY
FARM BUREAU
Notes for Week Ending May 81

A. w. Foote, appraiser for the federal
land bank, spent three days in Orange
county examining farms which had APP
piled for loans through the Chelsea Ma
tional Farm Loan association. Mr.. Foote
was very much pleased with the efficient
work of the local committee in exam
ming these farms. He considers this
one of the strong farm loan associations
of the state.
Plans for the coming membership drive
are rapidly being completed. The Or
ange County Farm bureau can point to
several definite accomplishments this
past season any of which would make it
deserve the support of all active farmers
and farmers wives in the county. We
especially urge the women to become a
part Of this organization Too few real

farm life attractive and the farm more
efficient.

be able to attend these meetings.

CURRENT COMMENT
Ignorant of Our Own State.

The ignorance of the average Vermont
er regarding the history of his state and
especially of his town is astounding. st.
Johnsbury schools have been paying es-
pecial attention to state and local his.
tory in the past year and are receiving
much favorable comment upon the idea.
Local industries even have been studied
in the matter OF their development, the
use and distribution of local products
and the influence these local industries
have upon the town. Such matters are
certainly of more vital Importance to the
average person than to know all the in
side of Roman history. Scarcely com
munity in Vermont is lacking in material
for study that would breed interest in
and respect for the old Green mountain
state and might easily tend to iuducs
our young people to remain at home an,
develop the resources at hand.-Barton

Is the Income Tax "UnsoundD?


'Not only an unfair but an unsound
public policy" is the language used by
the taxation committee of the National
Association of Manufacturers in charac-
terizing "the resting of the great burden
OF taxation upon personal and corporate
income by direct excise" This view is
not accepted by most students of scien-
tific taxation. That the income tax is
both fair and sound is the experts
theory. Yet the argument presented by
its committee to the manufacturers as
ISOLATION is worth noting.
Very large numbers of Americans pay
an income tax when it is brought down
to those receiving $1,000 OF $1,000 a
year; but all Americans do not. All
Americans would pay general sales
tax--and that is what is favored as a
substitution the theory that direct
contribution to the support of the rev.
enue system interests every individual
to the extent of his participation, and
emphasizes responsibility of citizen
ship" 1t is also held that in ease of
collection a sales tax would be prefer.
able to an income tax. Consumption
taxes and tariff .imposts are also APP
proved.
Thinking citizens should be glad of
every intelligent contribution to the dis
cussion of this question, which, econom.
ically considered, is the most important
one with which statesmen have to deal
in any country. We do not think the
income tax will be abandoned in the near
future; we doubt whether it should be
abandoned; we are sure that the present
feeling of the public sustains it as put.
ting burdens on the backs that can best
bear them. On the other hand, methods
of collection have not been simple, have
not been scientific, have not been salts.

Robert Bacon.

By birth and ancestry Robert Bacon
was son of Massachusetts,; by resi-
dence and business affiliations he became
citizen Of New York. 1t was his prec-
ious privilege to serve the nation, in
peace and war, at home and abroad, with
fidelity and distinction The charm of
his personality, the cleanness of his

BARRE's TAX RATE.

The Times does not question the good
intentions Of the members of the city
council of Barre but it does believe that
a mistake was made last night in voting
to levy tax of $40 on the dollar of
the grand list when there was a POSSIBLE
ity of keeping the rate down 10 cents on
the dollar. A difference of 10 cents does
not make great difference in the in
diyidual assessment of most of the tax.
