KILLING INDUSTRIES

The question is being commonly asked. '"What
excuse is there for the excess profit tax remaining
on the statute books?" The public seems to demand
its early repeal along with other special taxes
against certain lines if industry.
: Commenting on the situation the Wall Street
Journal says:
"The theory Of the excess profits tax was that
all extra profits could be drawn into the national
treasury and high production of essential goods
maintained. The originators Of this monstrosity
forgot the story Of the philosopher who, wishing to
get over rail fence thrust his fingers into his boot
straps and pulled with all his might. He didn't get
over the fence, but pulled out his bootstarps
'That is about the way the excess profits tax
has worked It has helped to create and bolster up
an abnormal price level for all commodities It is no
less than highway robber robbing the people, and
robbing the government
"There must be unusual taxes for some years
yet until the cost Of the is paid But there are
better forms of taxation than this that helps to
stifle industry, increases the cost of living makes
the purchasing power of the dollar less, breeds dis
content and encourages strikes.
"To say that income taxes will be less this COM
ing year is not sufficient. The public welfare de-
mands that this form of taxation, together with
other profiteers be abolished"
Western industries have suffered severely from
this form of taxation.

BACKBONE OF INDUSTRIES

The gibness with which North Dakota Non
Partisan League agitator proposes states insurance
shows great ignorance of basic conditions
They might carry some line of mutual insurance
against hail storms running crops, but general in
surance would be impossible by the state
The political functions do not apply to the great
service rendered by insurance of all kinds of prop
erty, lives, accidents and industries.
State supervision and protection against wildcat
insurance companies being organized and failing to
pay losses to policy holders is right
But when it comes to carrying on all the vast de-
tails of carrying insurance on homes stocks of mer-
chandise and big industries, it fails
The state might as we'll undertake to handle all
the banking or merchandising, all the transport
alton and shipping as all the insurance.

manufacture of confectionery, the candy trade
In the states west of the Mississippi there are in
round figures $25,000000 invested in candy factories
with annual product of $100O0O,OOO
At least 100000 people are employed with
monthly payroll of ten million dollars; federal taxes

Using eight per cent of the thirty per cent of

WHY WEST is INTERESTED

The large amounts of money spent in putting
together the plants of western metal producers in
recent years amounts to approximately billion dol
lars.
The bulk of this money came from eastern in
vestors and the west received the greatest benefit
from the expenditure and steady payrolIs main
tanned.
This is the reason why the west is interested in
maintaining conditions which will make it possible
for such industries to develop and get needed capital
The west is preculiarly dependent on foreign
orders and outside capital investments to maintain
its prosperity. Il.
z5 We have unlimited resources but it takes money
finance them and purchasers to buy as our own To-
cal requirements are small.
d This is why we should all hump ourselves to
establish and maintain sound measures in matters
relating to legislation labor questions and taxation
Delayed ratification of peace negotiations is
severely injuring western industries at this time

GREAT WESTERN CO.
OPERATIVE INDUSTRY

The people are beginning to fully realize the i'm
portance of beet sugar production as the greatest
western cooperative agricultural industry
1t is cooperative in the truest sense because it
means factories in the city and raw material pro-
duced in the country surrounding it.
1t means further supplying our country with a
most important food product and the return of all
the waste or by-product as stock food
The annual growth of our country requires an
increased production of ten per cent each year to
meet actual needs of the American people.
Keeping these facts in mind, national sugar
control and distribution is essential but it is also es
sential that selfish radicalism be minimized
Now take mere side-line of industry de-
