Apple sends his first eleven against
Business throughout ERE than fifty

of the failure OF the Business coach

II II likely that Tech will give many

II ne citizen who investigates discov-
ers that his heavy load of taxes is not
so much due to appropriations made at

IF half Of our people pay all the

be twice as heavy as if the whole were
taxed alike"
A fair and equal distribution of the
burdens of taxation is the greatest
problem before Congress, Mr.. McFad
