things in the fourth race at Laurel
yesterday afternoon when he made
Comdr J. X. l.. Ross Boniface look
as cheap as Sir Barton did when
the latter encountered Man O. War
up in Canada.
Old Dad and Boniface held the
stage in the early stages OF the
race, while DR.. Joe, with the vet
eran Andy Shuttinger in the saddle.
was content with the third position
until the trio came around the far
turn when Shuttinger brought DR..
Joe on to win by an easy six lengths
over Boniface. Wood Violet. the
other starter. was never prominent.
w. L. S. Martins Bridesman won
the fifth event and by SO doing hung
up his fourth consecutive victory at
Laurel this meeting. Smiths Tan
talus made all of the early pace
but Bridesman found little trouble
in riding over this one in the
stretch to win going away. Rubi-
dium was easily third best of the
six starters.
Popular choices were bowled over
in the opening number when twelve
2-year- r-olds went to the post. Chin

say. 16 per cent. Leave the existing
surtaX schedule untouched for the
present. but allow abatements on
such part-and such part only-of
individual incomes as are saved and
invested each year; such abatements
to be so calculated as to make the
rate of super-taXation on individual
income employed instead of spent,
not materially higher than the rate
of taxation on corporate income
Such a measure would, incidentally.
have the merit Of penalizing eXtrav-
aganCe and encouraging the con-
EtrUctiHe use of incomes.
do not mean to say that this
would be a finally satisfactory solu-
tion. 1t is a cumbersome and round
about way. 1t is compromise
merely. The ideal solution would
disregard the counsels of supposed
or alleged political eXpediency and
knowledge. reason and experience.
1t would be justified by the results
and approved. feel sure. by the
common sense of the people.
At any rate we must face the fact
that to eliminate the excess profit
tax without at the same time revis-
ing the schedule of surtaNes will not
only create a lopsided and unfair
system. but will bring only partial
relief from the evils which have fol-
lowed in the train OF faulty taxa
ton. The high cost of money. the
difficulty of obtaining funds, the
driving of capital into tax-exempt
securities, the inadequate function
ing of the Investment market and
the economic disturbances and alb
normalities which result from thsse
causes, depend for their remedy not
on the abolition of the excess profits
tax (eminently and urgently desirs-
bic though that is to mitigate other
eVils), but upon the wise revision of
the existing schedule of surtaXes.
tp 1t is true the excess profit tax still
continues in England and has, in fact. been
re-enacted and increased recently. GenersIly
speaking, l have great respect for the wis
dom OF Eneiand's nscal policy. bot in this
instance, the cases are not parallel for sev.
ersl reasons, which It would take too long
to set forth here. Moreover the English cx-
cess profit tax avoids features which are
most objectionable in ours.
The Washington herald., 1920-10-22

businesses pay no excess profit
taxes. Roughly speaking. the ex-
cess profit tax on corporate earnings
may be regarded as the equivalent
of the surtaXes on the earnings of
individuals engaged in business. And.
clearly, there ought to be such an
equivalent. 1t is certainly not the
intention of the public or the aim of
the law to give an undue advantage
to corporate as against individual
activity.
The simple and sensible way to
deal with the surtaXes would be to
admit the undeniable fact that our
surtaX schedule has proved to be
grossly excessive. that by its very
extreme it has defeated its purpose
and brought about harmful conse-
quences, and to act upon that recog-
milton by moderating that schedule.
But l know the political mind is
apt to shy from laying hands on the
presumably popular structure of
huge supertaxes. Personally, l am
convinced that in that attitude the
political mind is working according
to its inveterate habit of underesti-
mating both the integrity and the
lHIelllSeHCe OIL the people. The facts
as to the harm and futility of eX-
orbitant rates of taxation are indis-
putable and easily explained and
demonstrated. The average man and
woman are amply capable of grasp
ing them. Yet. political expediency is
fact which cannot be left out OF
account in the practical considera-
tion of tax revision. If then, il
should be found that the political
parties are prepared, as it appears
they are, to abolish the excess
profits tax, but that they have not
yet screwed UP their courage to re-
duce the schedule of surtaxes, some
other method must be devised to ac-
complish approximate equalization
betNeen corporate and individual
business taxation and at the same
time measurably to o0overcome, or at
least mitigate the damaging effect
and uneven incidence of our exist
ing surtax schedule.
An approach to that end might be
found in the following suggestion
(Which, / ought to mention, does not
originate with mel. simultaneously
with abolishing the excess profits
tax, raise the tax on corporate net

sit down and grapple with com
plicated tax forms and intricate
schedules or to spend money for
the employment OF lawyers and ac-
countants to tell him what he has
to pay. Furthermore. our govern
ment departments, generally speak
ing, do not possess personnel
sufficiently expert and highly train
ed. and above all sufficiently perma-
nent, to administer laws of UNUSUAL
complexity and dMiculty. In CON
radistinction to the conditions in
the leading European countries.
government service in this country
is not taken up by many as a
opportunities beckon and tempt, the
salaries are too low land to judge
from the traditional disposition of
Congress, are not likely to be made
adequate, at least in the case Of the
higher officials, the chances for pro-
motion are too uncertain, the op-
portunities for personal construc-
tive activity too circumscribed, etc.
We must not put a burden beyond
its capacity to carry upon the ad-
ministrative machinery at the gov
ernment's disposal, because If the
machinery of administering the law
breaks down the law itself breaks
down and ultimately falls into in
effectiveness, disfsvor and disrepute.
At the same time that the excess
profit tax is dealt with the extreme
scale of surtaxes, which actually
defeats its own purpose, should be
revised downward. The abolition
or revision of our generally con-
demned excess profits tax would not
accomplish the purpose in view un-
less. at the same time. the extreme
rates of individual surtaxes are re-
duced.
Second. Indeed, to abolish the
excess profit tax and leave corporate
profits subject only to the existing
net profit tax of 10 per cent would
not only affront a large body of pub-
lie opinion as being unduly tender
to corporate capital but would be
paralleling the uneven incidence OF
taxation, which is one of the charac-
teristic errors of the existing reye-
nue. measure.

Dutch Form Of COLI.

Where and when golf started no.
body knows of a certainty; whether
or not it comes from Holland or Scot
land matters little, perhaps, except to
the Seeker after the truth and nothing
but the truth. To him we would say
that some sort of a game resembling
golf was played In Holland oftentimes
on the ice with stakes instead OF
holes. No rules for such play have
ever been discovered, but from pic.
lures we learn that the finish Of this
Hollandish form was somewhat after
the fashion of croquet, with the ball
being bit between two sticks.
