Meant Satirically?
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: It's possible, l suppose. that
the two letters in The Tribune yes-
terday, professedly arguing against
sending food TO the starving children
IN Germany and to the Armenians,
were meant satirically. In any case
they were calculated to cause a re-
vulsion of feeling in favor of the help
less creatures they professed to wish
LETT TO- their fate. 1t can't be that any,
body really wants the amount Of suf-
fering in the world to remain anv
larger than we can manage to prevent.
People Of essentially kind hearts some-
times talk in an odd way; but they'd
probably be as willing to do without
marmnlade and cream to give a little
more chance to some of the tubercular
babies Of Germany, or the Armenian
walking skeletons who pick up the po-
tato peelings the soldiers throw away,
~ the next one. The more one thinks
about It the less conceivable it grows
that your correspondents meant any of
what they said s. N. CLEGUORN.

ton a practically universal levy for
national purposes seems to ignore
the fact that the President and the
Federal judges, as citizens, are a
part Of the economic mass. AS such
they receive compensation subject to
many invisible and impersonal eco
nomic fluctuations. Must their in
come from the government remain
fixed regardless Of economic and
general tax law changes?
Wouldn't an increase Of the per-
sonalty or realty tax levied in the
District of Columbia, so far as it af-
fected the property of the President
or the judges, also be diminution
Of their compensation? Wouldn't
new stamp taxes which they had to
pay or any form Of new personal
taxation hitting them fall in the
same category? Did the trainers Of
tho Constitution really mean to ex-
cmpt them from any decrease in sal
aries not due to reprisals directed
against them as public officers?
1t Is true that in income tax legis.
lation it has been the rule to direct
the Treasury to withhold the tax due
on salaries Of government officials
Thia involves diminution in form
The speculative point remains
whether constitutional theory ever
meant to regard it as diminution in
substance.
New-York tribune., 1920-06-07
Economy and Beauty

The plan Of the Fair Price Com
mission for a standardization Of
women's clothes by eliminating ex-
treme and freak styles ia worth seri-
Gus consideration. Whether It re-
suits in lowering prices or not, It
will result in reducing the budget re-
quired by we'll dressed woman. TO
keep up with rapidly changing styles
is wasteful and extravagant. To
ignore them is to be conspicuous, no
matter how expensive or beautifully
made last years clothes may be.
Even an attempt to be conserva-
tive in conforming to violent changes
in styles is almost impossible. Ready
made or made to order, high priced
or low, women's garments are built
on practically the same lines. II
skirts are so narrow that to walk in
them is distressing and dangerous,
they have to be worn. The shops
will carry nothing else. Even the
most obliging tailor can hardly be
induced to add one inch to the width
fashion dictates. He may promise
to do so, but when the skirt comes
home it is no wider than he meant it
to be.
The beauty always looked for in
! women's clothes will not suffer by a
little Standardization. For, while
freakish or extreme styles may stand
the test fairly we'll if carried out in
fine materials and beautiful colors, in
cheap material and poorly combined
colors they are an offense to the eye.
Good taste cannot, of course, be
forced on people, but if ugly things
are not designed and manufactured
they cannot be worn. So there is
more than economy to be hoped for
in this new movement.

pairing for war to the bitter end
against Hungary's victorious neigh
bors.
A few months ago Admiral Hor-
thy said that the peace treaty should
be signed, regardless Of the severity
Of its terms, in order to gain time
for the reorganization of Hungary's
army. The militarists Of Budapest
have not been idle in the months Of
haggling allowed them by Allied IN
decision. Not only was a compara-
lively powerful military machine
built up around the nucleus of the
original officers battalions, but ire
dentist propaganda was conducted
on a large scale in Slovakia and
Transylvania, with rebellion as the
ultimate purpose. 1t Is even charged
that the Hungarian government Is
financing B6lshevik agitation in
Czecho-Slovakia and Rumania, in or
der to undermine the governments Of
these states and to secure psetext
for eventual armed Intervention.
The attitude of Czecho-S1ovakia
and Serbia toward the Hungarian
government is one Of fully justified
distrust, and this attitude will hard
ly be modified by the signing Of the
treaty. There is every reason to be-
lieve that the Hungarian govern
ment plans to relegate soon the
Peace Of Neuilly to the historical
collection Of scraps Of paper. The
Allies can depend only on a genu-
inely democratic, anti-militaristic
and anti-chauvinistic Hungarian
government; in a word, on govern
ment whose principles and qualities
are directly the opposite to those Of
the present regime at Budapest.
New-York tribune., 1920-06-07


Retrenchment on some lines will Be
balanced by necessary increases In
salaries and operation costs, due to
imitation Of wages generally and the
advance in commodity prices.
But Congress at least stuck its
teeth into the problem. The Admin
istration didn't. It is foolish for
Democratic leaders TO invite COM
parison between the amount Con-
gress appropriated and the amount
the Administration urged It to ap-
propriate. The ono outstanding and
comforting fact IL that Congress
was able to scale down the Admins
tration's budget 80 per cent.
New-York tribune., 1920-06-07
Income Tax lmmmities

The Supreme Court has decided
that an income tex cannot be COL
lected on the salaries Of the Federal
judges and the President. The basis
for this decision is found in two spe-
cial provisions Of tho Constitution.
One Is that the President shall re-
ceive "a compensation which shall be
neither increased nor diminished
during the period for which he shall
have been elected" The other IL that
the Judges, both Of the Supreme and
inferior courts, shall receive "a COM
pensation which shall not be dimin-
ished during their continuance in
Office"
Both the President and the Judges
were to be protected against pecu-
mary retaliation on the part Of Of
Tended Congresses. That was wise
precaution. The Jeffersonian party,
after it came into power in 1901,
made war on the Federal judiciary,
which 1t charged with being too
Federalistic. Doubtless the Con.
gress Of that day would have tried
TO starve the judges Of the inferior
courts, at least, into submission.
And it Is easy to imagine what
tho Republican reconstruction con-
crosses would have done to Andrew
Johnson's salary If they had had the
right to diminish" it.
Everybody will concede that the
President and the Federal Judges
should be immune from the sort Of
pressure Congress may exercise
on ordinary Federal oficeholdsrs
through its power over the purse.
And from the practical point Of view
the revenues will not suffer much
from the exemption allowed so small
body Of income tax payers. But
the decision raises highly interest
ing question as to the real intent Of
the two constitutional provisions al
ready quoted. Is a tax which the
President and the Federal judges are
called upon to pay in common with
all other citizens and residents Of
the United States, except state off,
cials, a diminution Of their compen-
sntion7 II Congress should try to
levy a tax or them which didn't fall
on any other class Of citizens or resi-
dents the effect would certainly be
tho same as II It sought to reduce
the salaries allotted them in the
legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill. But to include

Against Sales Tax
Why an Economist Regards Il
az Unsouud

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: On your editorial page June {
appeared letter advocating . tax on
sales. There Is much to be said against
such tax, and It has been very we'll
said for the last century or two by all
those who witnessed and understood
the inevitable interference Of this tax
wit. economic activity.
A tax on sales may easily reduce ths
funds available for Efficient production,
because the largest sales are those
made so producers. not to consumers;
and this becomes all tho more evident
if we define necessaries as those arti-
cles Of consumption neceseAry for ef.
fcient production.
The only fund out Of which taxes
should be taken is the surplus Of pro.
duction over this consumption neess-
sary for efficient production. This is
the fund we draw on for eur luxuries
and our investments. The fairest meas.
ure Of it is our individual, income a.
ter deductinE our expenditures on nee.
essaries.0
That investments come out Of this
fund should not deter Us from taking
taxes out Of It first, fer luxuries come
out Of 1t, too, and they have been CON-
petinE rather notoriously Of late with
Investments; and, furthermore, II is
certainly wiser to interfere with pos
sible expansion Of business In che fu.
ture than to curtail the operations Of
such business as We already have.
