McADOO WOULD CUT
TAXES DOWN BILLION

Declaring the present tax burden
is injurious to business and big
contributing factor to the high cost
of living, William J. McAdoo, former
Secretary of the Treasury, in a state
ment, urges that it be cut 81 900, O0O,-
600 Immediately.
He would arrange for $500, 600 900
of this decrease by borrowing on the
securities of the interest on the debt
owed the United states in Europe.
a sum of ss5.OOO,OOO annually also
might be taken off the taxpayers
burden. he suggests, by postponing
the establishing OF the l per cent
sinking fund to retire our own war
debt, This would solve the problem
for the next two years with the is
suance of additional bonds of prob
ably not more than 81 800. 900. 900.

SW|NDLED GOVERNMENT
when We WERE At WAR

From recent reports it would seem
that it wasn't the $6-a-day "shirker''
in the shipyard plants who piled up
the millions of excessive costs on the
government contracts. 1t appears
that agents of the Bureau of Inves-
LEGATION have discovered fraudulent
vouchers in one class of contracts
alone that have resulted in the with
holding of payments amounting to
approximately $9,420.OOO. Civil and
criminal prosecutions now under way.
by which further illegal practices will
be exposed, will save the government
additional large sums, it is stated.
One of the methods employed by
those who will be brought to trial is
the so-called brass tag system Of pay
ing off employees, by which payrolIs
were padded to the extent of hundreds
of thousands of dollars.
During the war we heard a great
deal about the petty gratis of So
called "slackers' in industry: but for
the dollars these laborers were filch-
ing by ''loafins on the job it would
appear that certain higher-ups were
deliberately sWindling the government
out of tens of thousands. and, in the
aggregate, millions of dollars. Let us
hope that the guilty ones will suffer
punishment proportionate to the trea-
sonable crimes they have committed:
for swimdling the government in time
OF war may rightfully be denom-
mated treason of high degree.

b: We have secret ballot so that every
voice may be equal in our political life.
These things are so.
We do not have to have a reactionarv
government unless we want it.
We can have progressive, just gov.
eminent if we will vote for it.
We can defeat every enemy of the
people and elect every friend of the
people if We will.
1t all depends upon us.
It's duty that rests upon us-upon
all of US alike.
Kings and ears have fallen that we
might have this precious right to direct
our own political destiny. It is not
many years in the world s history since
men dared not utter an independent
thought.
Even to spread the printed word was
crime but yesterday.
Even to speak against authority was
but yesterday punishable by death.
|. But yesterday has gone. Today we
have the freedom and the obligation of
today-and we look toward tomorrow.
The ballot upon which Americans will
vote this November was bought dearly.
Men have died for it. Rich blood has
been shed for it. Men have gone into
conflict with the devout fervor of cru.
saders in their hearts, with the divine
fire of great courage in their eyes
that you may take ballot into booth
and freely vote your will in the con-
duct of our republic.
Vote righteously upon that ballot.
Let no shamed traitor benefit bv
what you put upon that simple piece
Of hallowed paper.
Let no corrupt thing gain life by the
vote you cast. Let nothing but that
which is true and honorable and tested
gain prestige from the little cross you
mark upon that ballot.
Behind that ballot is the dim etch-
ing of Bunker Hill. In it's fiber is the
agony Of Valley Forge. In its texture
is the stuff of heroes and of men who
held liberty and honor above all things
and who set the cause Of justice and
democracy ahead of life itself.
You cannot sanctify the ballot. But
it is your duty to the glorious past and
to the promising future to sanctify the
vote you put upon it. Let there be nc
shame in November!

1t deserves from them. If there wer,
no organized anti-labor movement in
Minneapolis, backed by Big Business
there, such an injunction as was issued
by Judge Bardwcll would not have been
heard of.
The four labor leaders Of MINNEAPOLIS
like the "six Men of Dorset,' are suf
f1ering imprisonment because they have
the courage to attack a great wrong.
There can be no liberty in a state where
a court is permitted to hold human
labor as property. If the four men had
violated law of the land they should
have been tried in the regular way by
jury Of their peers. The proceedings
in the Minneapolis case will do much
to take away from the courts this auto.
cratic power they have recently as
sumed. The Imprisonment of the four
labor men will serve to hasten the dav
Of freedom.
