roses. The bride was attended by

"PAY-AS-YOU-GO" TAXES

The elections returns thus far re-
ceived give no signs of that prudence
in spending public money which has
been forced upon private spenders.
Philadelphia, Detroit, Chicago, are
among cities whose voters blithely
ordered improvement loans for
parks, boulevards and other city de-
velopments. New York's bonus to. her
soldiers apparently approved by
large majority, heads the list in total,
and perhaps in improvidence, since it
comes on top of the largest State debt
and at time when the State is spend
ing S17,000,000 a year above its in
come The bonus and interest will
total S75,000,000, if it does not exceed
the estimates, and it will play its part
in swelling the direct State tax for a
quarter century. Very few of the vo-
ters have it brought to their attention
that they pay a direct tax. A few
years ago they did not, because the
State debt was only few hundred
dollars. Now the State debt is hun
dreds of millions, and growing thru
expenditures from which there is no
retreat. Every city and county is un-
der compulsiOn to levy upon its realty
a part of the States direct tax, but
only the smallest portion of the peo-
pie realize that they pay it. The in
come tax makes itself felt, but only
upon small part of the electorate.
1t is a hard saying that we need
more taxes, but it would seem that
there is room for tax which should
make itself felt by every one who
spends money. and at the time of
spending it. If the tax were unpop-
ular there would be good chance
that its unpopularity would react |
against the occasion for the tax. In /
that manner the public spendthrifts |
and the bestowers of bounties from |
tax moneys would feel a curb which |
now there is no manner of applying. |
The war tax might have been such a /
tax, but it is levied in manner which. !
makes its collection scandal. There /
is discrimination in the sales to which |
the war tax applies, and many think |
that more tax is paid than reaches the |
Treasury, through the looseness of /
the manner of its collection. Stamp |
taxes are better taxes, more surely |
collected, and obviously paid when |
the stamp is affixed Perhaps the COM |
bination of a sales tax with a stamp |
tax would meet the call for tax on |
almost everybody, and it should be
to the payer.
In New York State a direct tax
stamp to be affixed to all official pa
per would tell spenders that they were
paying part of the tax which they had
ordered at the polls, or which had
been imposed upon them by their law
makers. If discomfort with the tax
spread at the bottom, it would reach
to the top, and would produce a sense
Of responsibility now seldom shown in
the freedom with which expenditures
are ordered in the search for pOpu-
Iarity. The idea that the rich can be
made to bear the burden of taxation
has been tried, resulting in the dis
covery that it cannot be done and that
he attempt is harmful. There is now
room and need for a tax which shall
sober the spendeTs of public funds
Is private spenders have been disci-
Dlined by experience.-New York
Times.

CANADIAN FARMERS FIRST
Farmers Are Interested in A Tariff on
Wheat and FlOur-NOW Feel Result
of Free Trade.

Washington, Nov. 16-"Naturally
American farmers are enraged over
the immense importations of wheat
from Canada at time when their
own wheat will not bring the cost of
production" is the declaration Of the
Republican Publicity Association in
a statement issued through the Pres
ident of that organization, Hon. JON
athan Bourne, Jr. According to a
special tabulation of statistics, there
were importations of nearly 100000
bushels of Canadian wheat during the
first half of October. and every indi-
cation was that the importations
would increase rather than diminish.
At the same rate, the total for the
month would be around 100000
bushels, or nearly twice as much as
had been imported in any previous
month in the past seven years.
ut is to be hoped that the farmers
of America will give more than a pas
sing thought to the subject, for the
conditions that permit the importa-
tions are not new. Under the Repub-
lican tariff law on the statute books
prior to 1913 an import duty of rs
cents per bushel was charged on
wheat, and duty of rs per cent ad
valorem on wheat flour. The Wilson
Underwood act of 1913 put wheat and
what -four on the free list except that
a duty of 10 cents per bushel on
wheat and As cents per barrel on -four
was charged on importations coming
from any country charging duty on
wheat and -four when ex-
ported.
Milford chronicle., 1920-11-19

"This arrangement contained two
vicious evils. One was the adoption
of the policy of free trade AMI the
other was the adoption - plan
which made it possible for the rival
country to determine whether the
United States should impose a duty.
So long as Canada wanted to ship
wheat and -four into the United States,
she could do so without paying duty.
If. by any chance, circumstances
should change in such way as to
make ii desirable for Canada to charge
a duty on American wheat, that ma
ton could do so without asking per-
mission of the United States. In other
words, the Democratic tariff law left
it optional with Canada whether to
have a tariff or free trade in wheat
and -four Ii was complete sur
render to Canada-the adoption of
policy of leaving the American farmer
open to free competition while giving
the Canadian farmer opportunity to
have a protective tariff at any time
if his interests required
1T happened that Canada had no
occasion to use this free market very
extensively until the present harvest
season. Soon after the enactment of
the Wilson-U Underwood tariff law, the
war broke out and Canada had
ready market for her wheat in Eu-
rope Some small shipments were
made to the United States either for
special purpose of for re-shipment
to Europe. But the competition with
the American farmer was not felt. |
The foreign market being almost un-
limited. the American farmer did not |
need then a protective tariff.
But the time came when wheat /
producers in the United States did /
need an import duty-and they could .
not get it. Canada had complete con-
troll over the question whether the |
United States should or should not
charge a duty. and of course that
wanted the American market
open, in accordance with Democratic
policies.
Canadian wheat, under the encOur- /
agement of Democratic legislation, is
today bearing down the market price
of American wheat, and the grain sec
tions of the west are suffering the
loss"
