States pays taxes to the amount of
$5,00O,OOO a year. European firms
manufacturing a similar product are
permitted TO ship the film in free of
duty, keeping the selling price just
under the American price and putting
in their own pockets the huge profits
incident TO their lower costs of pro-
ductiOn. That is the Democratic idea
of Federal system of taxation-tax-

Hard to Put Over

a special committee Of the Amer
lean Bar Association has recommend
ed that the date for presidential in
augurations be advanced from March
4th to the third Monday in January,
and also that Members of Congress
elected in November meet on the
second Monday of the January fol-
lowing. 1t is urged that too much
time elapses from the date of the
election to the taking of office by the
successful candidates and the putting
into effect of the policies the people
have endorsed. At present, unless
special session of Congress is called
by the President, thirteen months
elapse before Members elected in
November take their seats in Deem
Der of the following year. In the
meantime conditions under which
they were elected may have entirely
changed.
But the reform advocated by the
Bar Association is not easy of accom-
plishment. Amendments to the Con-
stitution must be agreed to by Con-
gress and ratified by three-fourths of
the States. Congress cannot, by mere
legislation, shorten the term of the
President or interfere with the length
of service of its Members, both of
which are involved in the change of
dates. Bills have been introduced at
various times proposing Constitution
al amendments substantially along the
lines recommended by the Bar Assoc
iation, but they never have been sub
mitted to the States.

A Privilege Worth Paving For

With the industries of all other
countries protesting against the i'm
position of protective duties at Amer
lean ports, it begins to look as though
there is a real need for return to the
Republican protective principle. The
Republican Congress does not propose
to shut out importations entirely but
merely to impose a tax which will put
the American producer on something
like an equality with his foreign COM
petitor in our own markets. The
American producer not only pays
local, state and Federal taxes, but he
pays the American standard of wages
and maintains American standards of
working conditions, He buys Amer
lean raw materials where available.
This being true, why shouldn't the
foreign importer be required to pay
an import tax for the privilege of
marketing his cheap products here?

stock and Bond Holders vs.. EN-
Ployees


Many people express sohcitude for
the ranroad employees, merely De
cause they think there are many more
employees than owners of the roads,
and that the powerful few have been
xplOiting the more numerous, but less
influential, workers for their own,
benefit The Railway Age estimates
that there are approximately twice as
many owners of rail securities as
there are employees The Northern
Pacific road is considered typical of
all lines, and a recent count showed
that there are $4,000 owners of its
bonds and stocks. But the employees
of the Northern Pacific number only
about 10000.
The rights of those security hold
ers are just as inviolate as the rights
Of labor. The railroad employees
were able, through threatened strikes
and various other forms of intimida-
tion, to raise their wages substantial
ly as the cost of living rose during
and after the war. But the security
holders, depending for their incomes
on their dividends and interest pay
ments, had no redress. Not only was
their income not increased, but in
most cases it was cut off entirely,
while the market value of their hold
ings steadily went down. They could
not use force and coercion to keep
their income on par with living costs
even had they been inclined to do so.
Instead of the rail employees being
forced to accept unreasonable wages
and conditions of employment in
order that the owners of the roads
might prosper, exactly the reverse has
been true. The organized workers
took advantage of the defenseless
condition of their employers and the
circumstances of the times to extort
rates Of wages of proportion TO re-
turns on capital, and rules of employ
ment that are little less than confsca-
tory.

Must Know the Game

Secretary of War Weeks believes
an army officer should have practical
knowledge gained by actual exper-
fence, in commanding troops. And
he is right. The successful railroad
man, the successful construction con-
tractor, the successful merchant, are
all men who began at the bottom and
learned every phase of the work they
later were called upon to supervise.

TaxPayer

With a Republican Congress and a
Republican Executive striving to out
do each other in making a record for
retrenchment and economy, the poor
taxpayer stands a pretty good show
to be the beneficiary. During the
eight years of Democratic rule there
was no competition to see who could
reduce expenses most.

Theory Out. Practice In

College professors are all right in
their places~but they pay few taxes
and hence are not good experts in
drafting tax laws. The Republican
administration is gradually getting US
out from under tax system that was

u. S. MAIL RECEIVERS
WIND UP THEIR WORK
Shipping Boards Claim for
$4,000 Loses Priority.

Judge Martin T. Manton in the
United States District Court yesterday
filed an order approving the final ac-
counts presented by the receivers for the
United States Mail Steamship Company
and directed that the receivers pay out
OF any funds which they have allow
ances made for accountants and special
masters and file final report of funds
in the bankruptcy court. Judge Man
ton ordered that upon compliance with
these instructions the receivers be dis
charged.
Judge Manton's order in effect denied
the United States Shipping Boards re-
quest that a claim against the receivers
for $4,000, representing moneys ad-
vanccd by the board when the receivers
were first appointed, should be given
piority over the fees and other costs OF
receivership. The receivers, according
10 counsel for the Shipping Board.
agreed to repay this sum out of the first
funds they received from operation OF
the passenger ships chartered by the
United States Mail Steamship Company.
Among the reports approved yester-
day by Judge Manton were counsel fees
already paid, amounting 10 some $4,000.
fees of $4,000 each of the two receivers
and several other items. Judge Manton
then directd that paymnt be made to the
special masters and accountants em-
ployed by the receivers.
