THE TAX PROBLEM.

The question of taxation is one Of
the most important that governments
have to deal with and it is one of the
hardest to solve in equity and justice.
Taxes we must have and the burden
should be bourne in large measure by
those best prepared to carry it, But
it is job for experts, honest and sim
cere men who have no axes to grind
and who seek only the public good.
The next congress must grapple with
this problem and make some changes
in present tax laws. 1t would be well
for the country if politics could be for
gotten; If special interest could be ig-
nored, if classes and sections could be
disregarded and the interests of all
the people be the guiding star leading
to action. But it is not enough that
congress try its best to formulate a
and scientific tax plan. 1t
must have knowledge Of the subject
Of taxation. IL must know how this
and that plan have worked in other
Webster City freeman. [volume] (Webster City, Hamilton County, Iowa) 1884-1946, 1920-11-22

countries and how various plans that
have been tried have worked in this
country.
Congress hardly has the time to de-
vote to such questions that their
merit warrants and the interests Of the
people demand. Members of congress
have so many things to think about,
so many different problems to absorb
their attention, so many demands made
upon their time that they cannot be-
come experts in any line, but can
secure only superficial knowledge Of
many things
Otto H. Kahn of New York, re-
markably well Informed tinancier, dis
cussed the question Of taxation before
a recent meeting of the Massachus-
ietts Chamber of Commerce at Boston.
Mr.. Kahn is a banker. and talks like
a man. who really wants this great
question solved in the interest OF all
the people, and for that reason what he
SAYS is entitled to the most serious
consideration. 1t is quite evident that
he has given much thought to the
question and made exhaustive study Of
the experiences Of various nations in
dealing with taxation. He tells why
the excess profits tax and the surtax
have failed to operate as congress
thought they would and how they are
in the end paid by the consumer with
large additions. How they stifie BUSH
ness and attract capital to nontaxablc
securities, thus withdrawing it for in.
dustries that need it in order to func-
ton.
In order that best possible results
may be obtained Mr.. Kahn advocates
the appointment Of commission by
congress, consisting of congressman
and senators and number Of capable
men of the highest character and pat
Webster City freeman. [volume] (Webster City, Hamilton County, Iowa) 1884-1946, 1920-11-22

that he is for league or an associa-
ton of nations for the preservation OF
the peace of the world.
1t will devolve upon President
Harding and his advisors and the
United States senate to devise souIc
plan for such an association that will
command the respect of the American
people, secure the necessary two-thirds
majority in the senate and be accept
able to the other nations of the world.
It is no small problem and the
president-elcct may well approach it
with misgivings and caution. The
country has given him commission to
proceed, at the proper time, and it is
expected that he will be able to secure
results.

Senator Kenyon is interesting him
self with the problem of unremlulera-
tive prices for farm products and is
of the opinion that congress will take
some action looking to the improve
ment of the grain market. Farmers of
the middle west, he says, are required
to sell their crop at less than cost and
he sees in such condition serious re-
suits for the future. He is of the
opinion that a revival of the war
finance corporation would go far to-
ward solving the problem. Europe
needs our foodStuffs, but owing to the
financial situation Europe cannot
finance shipments on large scale. If
the question of credits could be salts
factorily settled much of our surplus
would find a market and prices would
surely increase This is Il problem for
! the next session of congress and 1T is
to be hoped it will be kept out of poll
| tics.

riotism, large experience and recog-
nized ability, men who are willing to
serve for the public good and who
would have the confidence Of the peo-
pie.
Great. Britain and other progressive
governments handle these questions
in this manner and as result deal
more satisfactorily with them than We
do. 1t is the idea of Mr.. Kahn that
the citizen members of the committee
suggested should put in all the time
necessary to reach sound foundation
for the basis of conclusions, and then
submit theirNfindings and conclusions
to all the committee, inviting discus
sions that will throw all possible light
upon the matters under consideration.
In closing his address Mr.. Kahn said !:
1T is instructive to compare our aver
age congressional report with like re-
ports of British commissions. While
numerous reports Of the latter kind
have become standard works on the
subjects with which they deal and are
referred to many years after as author
itative sources of information, l know
Of no report by congressional COM
mittee within this generation Except
the Aldrich report on currency reforfh)
that has attained similar standing.
Much relief could be obtained by our
Legislators and very advantageous re-
suits accomplished. if part Of the bur-
den of holding hearings, gathering
views and investigating economic and
other nonpolitical subjects were plac-
ed upon the shoulders of others-non-
office holding citizens acting in con
junction with senator's and congress
men. The best ability and ripest ex-
perience Of the country could be called
upon and would surely be found ready

In "Notes About Women" we read
that twenty -four years ago Mrs

has the largest income of any woman

and director of company which puts
in circulation every year $11,OOO,O0o

and her net earnings for the past two
years has averaged $1,525,OOO year

Price reductions are most welcome

ple.-Burlington Hawk Eye.
Price levels that are below the point
of legitimate profit cease to be bless

danger than price levels that repre-
sent profiteering. Every producer
ought to get fair price for his
products so should everybody handling
them, the transporter, retailer, etc.

should get. The handling, too, ought

ed upon as distinguished honor to be
asked by congress to act as one OF its
instrumentalities, and the resulting
sense of responsibility and OF public
duty and trust shOuld-and I have no
doubt would-cause those thus Sc
lected and honored to give service
wholly free from the bias of self-in-
terest. Such committees might be COM
posed of say five non-Office holding
members and six or seven Senators and
Congressman. A great part of the
work could be done without necessitat-
ing. the continuing attendance OF the
!, legislative members.
The reports enanating from the de-
alterations of the committee would, it
may be hoped, come to be regarded as
sources of reliable information to the
public on social and. economic sub
jccts. and if the committees are
wisely selected and rightly conceive

potency, irrespective Of party affilia-
| tons.
They ought also to make it easier
for the political parties to have the
courage of facing squarely and dealing
without too much zigzagging and COM
promising, with questions of non
political nature, because the parties
could point to the backing OF the rea-
soIed Judgment of particularly expert
and trustworthy men without political
axes to grind.
An incidental advantage of consider
able value would be thus to bring to-
gether representative men of different
callings and from different sections OF
country in conference and exchange OF
views with each other and with sena-
tors and congressman.
