Senator Hefiin From Alabama

Senator James Thomas Hefiin
from Alabama (portrait herewith)
isn't Just like the senators elected in
November. One difference consists in
the fact that he is now functioning
in that august body, while all the 9th
ers except Senator Carter Glass of
Virginia, Will have to wait until March
4 before taking their seats. The rea-
son is that he was elected to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of the
late Senator John II. Bankhead.
Senator Helm has been promoted
from the house, where he served eight
full terms and a portion of an unex-
pired term. He was born at Louina,
Randolph county, Ala, April 0, 1869.
"He is a typical Southerner in man.

sketches of him. He was mighty

Hammond and Wireless Death

Complete humiliation of enemy
fleets long before they come within
gun range of the New York skyscraper
skyline, or the Notifications guard
ing the Golden Gate, becomes a SEEM
ing possibility as a result of recent
tests by warships of the navy off the
Virginia capes. For these tests a
number of out-of-date battleships were
used. There was not a human being
on board, yet they were Unanswered
hither and thither at will. Thus the
battleship Ohio. of 1900 tons, was
steered and managed by wireless op-
orators on the battleship Indiana.
The wireless controlled ship has
been developed out of the invention
of John Hays Hammond, Jr., son of
a noted American engineer.
The possibilities of the idea in

it. there is wireless control of air.

EXCESS PROFIT TAX
PYRAMIDS COST

There seems to be an almost uni
iversal demand in the interest of in
dustry that the so called excess pro-
fit tax be removed. This tax sim
ply pyramids the cost of living. the
manufacturer must make profit
and sufficient In addition to cover
the tax; goods are then sold to
wholesaler and he makes his profit
on the gross price which he pays
which includes the tax: the retailer
buys from the wholesaler and an
other profit is made on the goods.
including a profit on the tax. And
SO 1t goes. Abolition of excess pro-
ut tax would encourage industry
and inceased production and tend to
reduce the cost of living.
A purchase tax instead Of the ex-
cess profit tax would collect only
one tax from the ultimate consumer
and would not necessitate pyramid.
ing profits on a tax charge as at
present. Industry must make pro-
fit to operate and maintain payrolis.
Hence a tax which Is the least COM
plicated and the least burdensome to
industry falls the lightest on the ul-
innate consumer Is all taxes charged
against industry must be passed on
to the consumer.
Hence the necessity for some form
Of taxation similar to the tobacco
tax which adds nothing to the cost
Of manufacture but through the
stamp tax on the goods which the
consumer buys. the necessary reven-
ne is raised. b
