Mr.. McAdoo's Program

TT is little difficult to agree with former
1 Secretary. Of the Treasury McAdoo upon
his plan for reducing taxation by $1,000
100000. The result which he wishes to
achieve is longed for by the whole country.
Taxation is burdensome, oppressive and dis
heartening td individuals and to business,
and the hope is felt that some ways and
means will be found for tightening this load,
not IN the years to come, but in the imme-
diate future
But Mr.. McAdoo's scheme does not seem
TO offer that escape from taxation burdens
without consequences which must be avoided
In the first place he suggests that this gov
ernmcnt not collect the $500,000,000 a year
which foreign governments owe us on the
Sl0,oO0,oO0 900 loan extended during the
war. In lieu Of this he proposes that this
interest be funded into additional bonds and
sold TO the people. In the next place he is
willing to postpone for two years at least
the collection of sinking fund which Con
gress provided for when it issued the war
bonds. This action would make it possible
to save $750,000.000 in immediate taxation
to which s25O,0o0.o0O more might be added
by prudent economies
The issuance of additional bonds is dan
gerous resort. This has been the verdict
every time any project or proposal has been
presented for bond issues further to finance
the government. To put more government
securities on the. market will not only con-
tnue the imitation which has followed the
war but it. VIII! interfere with the present
system OF credit in this country, and il would
be depressing circumstance TO wipe ont
the. sinking fund, thereby violating the
soundcst Of financial principles.
As for the interest payments from foreign
governments. it does not seem remotely
necessary for this government to make SO
gigantic a gift TO it's war associates Great
Britain financed the allies before the cntry
OF America into tho war, and France, Italy,
Russia aud other governments owe Britain
billions OF dollars. No serious move ever
has been madc 10 cancel those obligations
by the British people or the British govern
mont. London expects to collect. in time.
every dollar il has loaned, and it might AS
we'll make up It's mind to pay TO the United
States every doltar it has borrowed from u.s.
Mr. McAdoo is tinancier OF wide expert
cncc and Of great vision, but he does not
appear at his best in the plan ot action nc
has laid before the country for the reduction
of taxation.
