COURT ! | DECISION
Minnesota Man Proposes Con-
stitutionaI Amendment to Tax
Stock Dividends.

WASHINGTON, April S.-To cor
rect a decision by the United States
supreme court in the stock dividends
case, Senator Nelson Of Minnesota has
introduced a constitutional amend
ment to empower congress to levy
taxes on stock dividends "from what
ever source obtained or in whatever
manner issued"
AS result Of the courts decision
large corporations are issuing stock
dividends instead Of paying dividents,
thereby reducing the amount of "in-
Gomez received by the holder Of these
stock dividends.
The effect of this decision is shown
by Justice Brandeis of the supreme
court, who said in his minority re-
port:
''If stock dividends representing
profits are held exempt from taxation
under the sixteenth amendment, the
owners Of the most successful busi-
nesses in America will, as the facts in
this case illustrate, be able to escape
taxation on a large part of what is
actually their income. So far as their
| ceived as dividends they will pay these
taxes not upon their income but only
! upon the income Of: their incomes.
| That such result was intended by the
people of the United States when
adopting the sixteenth amendment is
inconceivable." :
Justice sBrandeis called attention to
former declarations by the court that
the federal constitution is statement
Of general principles and not q apeci-
fcation Of details and that an act OF
congress should not be declared In:

Average Purchase Is. two and
0ne-HaIf Shares.

NEW YORK, April s,-According to
a, report by the United States Steel
corporation ee,477 employees SUBJ
scribed last year for 167. .407 shares Of
common stock. valued at $106 a share.
The corporation stated that 252,lo6
employees were on its pay roll at the
end of the year.
The trusts "co-operative" policy has
been praised in certain quarters, but
the records indicate that employees are
not wildly enthusiastic about the
stock-buying scheme.
According to the report, less than
one-fourth of the employees subscribed
for Stock. and the average purchase
Of this one-fourth is a little over two
and one-half shares. At $106 a share
this would total 1858.
+ Buying 1858 worth OF common
! stock Of the United States Steel cor
poration is considered a solution 'ot
the labor problem by those who op-
pose thade unions: The total common
stock of the corporations: is, $685.
302,500.
The corporations report shattered
the fairy tales of wondrous wages
paid by this concern. It is stated that
the average salary paid to all EN-.
ployes, including administrative and
selling force, was $6.17 q day. This
means that the salaries Of superin.
tendents nd managers and foremer
are listed with the wages Of so-called
common labor. that a high average
may be reached.

to cooperate with the railroad

Public Stood to Win.

called "the public stood to win an
enormous advantage Through this
zsystem Of public ownership and de-
mocratic con. "ol of industry. But
the organs ef publicity through
which the public gets its "informa-
tion" Immediately launched a CAM
paign of Misrepresentation which
convinced the public that labor had
formed a conspiracy to rob the con-
sumer.
All this is merely d prelude to
what has hap1 ened at Washington
during the past fortnight, and which
ought to show the public" how
thoroughly it will be punished for it's
own stupidity.
President Wilson las formally
abolished the last pretence of con-
troll over the price of coal. The pub
lie will pay. The miners get g. slight
increase in wages, which the opera
tors will multiply, with White House
consent land add to their prices. The
public will pay.
Profits Are Large.
At the hearings last month the
miners showed that operators profits
are in many instances so large that
wage increases could be granted
without adding to retail prices. In
their convention the miners ap.
pealed for a reorganization Of the
whole mining industry that would
make fuel available to its real own
ers, the people. In both instance.
the miners, like the railroad workers
have been turned down..

troll have determined that Americs
