The Square Deal at Last.

Tax collecting on the level is as
important and necessary as tax pay
ing on the level. The tax department
Of the United States Treasury is be
ing cut on an ethical plane as well
as a sensible business basis like the
rest Of the national Government
when the tax collectors are no longer
trying by every hook and crook to
tako away from taxpayers what is
not due as we'll as what is due the
Treasury.
An example of the fairer and bet.
ter policy is found in the matter OF
securities and other investments that
have become worthless. BY a new
ruling IL security Is so destitute
Of value that sound business methods
and, in the case OF q bank. the laws
require that It be charged off the
owners books altogether or be
marked down, the income tax return
may treat 1t in the same way.
Other revision Of the old rules is
made in respect of losses which may
be accounted for in other years than
the years when the loss actually was
suffered, although it was not thea
known to be loss, as in the case
Of an embezzlement or a shipwreck
afterward discovered.
In various ways the Government is
now endeavoring to avoid injustice
against anybody subject to the pay
ment Of taxes rather than trying to
get all it can out OF him, whether he
owes 1t or does not owe 1t. And in
line with these correct, not to say
honest, business methods the Govern
ment is no longer hanging on like
grim death to anything it gets out Of
taxpayer, even after 1t has been
shown that it never should have been
collected from him. In too many in
stances in the past 1t has been quite
as hard for an overcharged taxpayer
to get back his overpayments once
they had gone to the tax collector as
1t was to prove to the Government
officials who forced it out of him that
1t was an overcharge. Now the
Treasury undertakes to return the
excess collections without endless
red tape, obstruction or any unnec-
essary delay.
New York will be wise to follow
the example of the national Govern
ment In these and other matters. In
this State there has been not only
deliberate legal invention but admin
istrativc ingenuity to compel taxpay-
ers to pay taxes on positive and
heavy losses they have sustained and
otherwise yield up what is not justly,
even II technically, owed under the
queer laws and queer administra-
tive rulings.
No Government can afford to Gre
ate The impression among its citizens
that it is out to get their money by
fair means or foul. No Government
should tolerate bureaucrats and other
underlings whose idea Of efficient ad-
is frisking and fleeing
the public.

Footprints.

Tho sands Of Time were smooth at last
Where all the conquerors had passed !;
OF Attila remained no print.
OF Julius Cesar not a hint.
But on the strand could still be traced
Small marks the waves had not erased.
Where little Christmas stockings danced
And through the centuries had pranced.
For while oblivion has rolled
Upon the mighty and the bold,
When these are vanished with the VAIN
Still love and childhood shall remain.

AS newspaper men and as citizens
we have the satisfaction of knowing
that as good a newspaper man and
as great a statesman as President
HARpiNG, the inspiration and soul of
the conference, put precisely the
same Interpretation on Mr.. LODGES
statement of December 10 with re-
gard to the agreements Of the four
Power treaty as all newspapers and
all American citizens put on it.
THE New YORK HERALD took the
Lodge statement at its face value and
the Lodge statement was the state
ment of the American delegates as q
unit. 1t couldn't have been other
wise. AS THE New YORK HERALD
read the Lodge statement, so all the
newspapers of the country read it,,
and SO the President OF the United
States read it.
Tie pity of this situation Is the
disclosure of lack of that fine frank
ness wholly free from secret under
standings which have been the curse
of old time diplomacy and which the
citizenship of the world so utterly
abhors. 1t is either this or gross
failure on the part of the American
delegates to state the facts 30 clearly,
so simply and so candidly that no
one could misunderstood them, that
no one could read into them any other
meaning than the one they were in
tended to convey.
The disturbing thing in this stu
alton is not the wider scope of the
treaty in its greater protection of
Japan, as now revealed, but rather
the vague presentation. in the Lodge
statement, OF actual international
agreements. II getting through the
agreement hung on this greater pro-
lection it may well be that it was
wholly worth while, for in its breadth
and bigness, getting rid, as it did. of
the Anglo-Japanese treaty, it was
mighty achievement.
The inclusion Of the homeland Of
Japan in the sphere of islands COW
cred by the treaty is microscopically
inconsequential in comparison with
the heart and purpose of the treaty
itself. In fact, IL the Lodge state
n:ent had in simple directness pre-.
sented the picture as it is now re-
vealed, America as a whole, we be-
lieve, wouldn't have been greatly dis
tur6ed over what has now come to
be an outstanding provision of the
treaty.
We could wish that this provision
extended to America as we'll as to
the Japanese homeland, though in
neither case would such protection
be compulsory. The treaty Is sub.
stantially Of the nature of a gentle
mems agreement. 1t has no military
background. without which there is
no recourse to force. Reason, discus
sion, friendly consideration take the
place of force. An experiment and
long step forward to be sure, but an
experiment we'll worth making.
In spite of the bungling that has
beclouded the hitherto fair skies of
the Conference and on the assump-
tion that we now have all tie facts,
THE New YORK HERALD will unre-
servedly support the treaty when
1t comes up for ratification in the
United States Senate. This incident
hasn't the importance to justify any
adverse action on the treaty.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Your edi-
