He became a Republican, and among the carly supporters of Senator Harding for the Presidency. It was in his room it is said, that the nomination of Senator Harding was arranged at an carly hour in the morning.
 That Col. Harvey is man of excellent literary ability is admitted Generally speaking his however. has been rather critic than otherwise He has opposed with vigor every President have had in his time except Cleveland His attacks on Roosevelt have been specially vtroc.

MORE SEEMING THAN REAL.

New York business interests have complained great deal about the special burden the income tax laws place upon them and complain that the opera tion of the tax is discriminatory against them. As if prove these complaints to have just basis the National Bank of Commerce of that City, in the March issue of it's Commerce Monthly, calls attention the circumstance that more than 25 per cent, Of all State contributions for financing the Federal Gov ernment during the period of the war came from the State of New York It prints statistics to prove it's claim, showing that New York contributed in taxes paid and loans $S,744,S19000 out of total of $34,374 ,233,00 Then it continues:
 Eight states provided nearly three
 fourths of all interal revenue and two
 thirds of all loans issued. These states,
 each of which contributed at least bill-
 ion dollars to public expenditures during the
 war period, listed in the order of amounts
 furnished, New York Pennsylvania, Illi- nos, Ohio, Massachusetts, California, New P Jersey and Michigan.
 The figures quoted and the conditions that would seem to justify the New York complaint are more seeming than real Assuming that the figures quoted are correct the question of the distribution of the burdens of taxation is not settled by them. It is not so much a question where the office from which these vast came located where the bank upon which the cheeks drawn is situated, where the income and the money paid pro duced Millions of Alaska made money have been annually paid into the Treasury for income taxes, and for loans, the credit for which went to New York, San Francisco Seattle Tacoma other cities because the accounting made and the checks written in offices that located in those cities That applies to most of large mining and fisheries cOmpanies4 Texas and Oklahoma oil fields, Arizona Montana Utah and Alaska copper mines Western cattle and sheep ranges Pacific and Southern forests railroads and industries everywhere earned a very large percentage Of these taxes which New Workers find burdensome In all probability if all the facts could be ascertained it would be discovered the income tax has borne heavier production and on individuals in Alaska than it has in New York

From the Engineers Point of View.
(New York WorldD


 To engineer accustomed to the smooth work ing of machines and orderly industrial plants the spectacle of waste and mismanagement in any nation must be appalling. No nation will run ac- ccrding to central plant. But a certain amount of inefficency can be avoided by education and CO., operation and the American Engineering Council has set itself the task of making a national assay of waste pointing out the vast amount of energy lost through maladjustment and lack of forethought
 Herbert Hoover, President of the organization, oilers diagnosis which must be accepted as au- thortatve however startling:
 There is certain proof deficient pro
 auction by comparisons of intense e.
 suits in 1918 when, with 20 per cent of our
 man-power withdrawn into the army we
 yet produced 20 per cent. commodities
 than we are doing today. We probably
 not producing more than 60 70 per cent.
 Of our capacity; that is. if could Synchro-
 nize all national effort to maximum produc-
 uon We could produce 30 or 40 per cent
 more commodities and service. Our national
 machine is today doing worse than usual
 as witness the 3,ooo.ooo idle walking
 our streets
 Most of the lost motion as Mir. Hoover points out Is the result Of intervals of unempoy ymen fric tcn between capital and labor faulty distribution of he labor supply, lack of standardization in prod ucts, and expensive, outworu methods The frs ,ause unemployment in hard times. is the most inn )ortant If slack periods could be utilized to ex- pand shops and install machinery, to build rail way extensions and dig canals, electrfy railroads md coal mines should at one stroke abolish mn employment and scrap the Iabor-wastfne devices which cucumber our economic life There is no such 'I"9 "7 tae NauohhS S oFeFprodueinG5 MT Hoover 'enslbly says If il produces the right commodi- es This fact is largely cancelled in practice by he paueity Of money to keep things moving when eiut of goods has piled up ahead of the cash demand.
 Yet there exceptions to this rule. and to these Aceptions the engineers intend appeal. Ritun- nous coal could be mined all round Municipal tate and Federal projects could be pushed when Here Is no other work to be had A determined Hort 10 regain equilibrium could hardly fail ia Flns about Improvement. We stagger not because 'ur load is too heavy but because we try to carry shoulder

Where's Nearest Glove Counter?

We used to wonder just why bar had to have a brass foot rail in front of it and we had 10 wait until prohibition hit us to find out. The old brass foot rail steadiod your arm my bo, and enabled you to lap up just one more without wobbling. How do we know? Well, read this item from Women's Wear:
 " Chicago store recently increased it's glove business by a simple me charical device that has since been adopted by a well known Philadel- phia establishment. A brass rail was placed about six inches from the floor, running the full length of the glove counter. When a person tries on pair of gloves the foot uncon- sciously rests on the brass rail, form ing brace, which steadies the arm and makes the fitting of gloves aa easy matter"

ARE RAILROADS WASTING A
BILLION A YEAR

Mr.. w. Jett Lauck, a statisician in
summarizing labor's side of the rail-
road sitnation before the Railroad
part as follows:
The evidence shows there is
capital combine consisting of the
major banks, the railroads, and the
industries controlling basic mater
ials, and that this combine has and
exercises a power over the econom-
ic destiny of the United States. 1t
shows that within the identical cap
italist group lies the power to ad-
Just or miaadjust relative prices in
1 manner that will stimulate or sup
press industrial activity. 1t points
out that this focal capitalistic group
has deliberately maintained high
prices Of steel, coal, cement, and
other basic materials, and that the
railroads, financed by the same in
terests, have refused to place the
orders for plant maintenance or ev-
en- the orders necessary to prevent
plant and equipment deterioration
"The exhibit shows that, the
greater factors in American indus
try, the railway equipment produc-
ers, the railway repair works, the
steel interests, the coal, cement,
and other basic material producers,
are all closely bound together by
intercapital relations and interlock-
ing directorates, coming to focus
in the house of Morgan.

issue as to the propriety of a CEN
tralized system of economic control.
The point of the exhibit is its chal-
lenge of the unconscionable misuse
which the great cobine has made of
its power The employees call at
tention to the national responsible
ity which the possession of such
power entails, and note that this re-
sponsibility in the case of the rail-
way industry has been recognized
and written into the Federal laws
of the United States, and the en-
plOyes specifically point out that
this responsibility is being unscru-
ously evaded.
THE railroads are pleading pow
erty. The banks are making unpre-
cedented profits and declaring un-
precedented dividends, and the same
same applies to steel, coal, railway
equipment, and similarly situated
concerns. The capital combine, in
preparing to precipitate unemploy-
ment, adopted policy that the rail
roads should dol first. Railway
Improvement programs were defer
red; railway maintenance was re-
duced below minimum legal re-
quirement.
"The report brings into clear re-
lief the fact that there is no found
alton f + the opinion, which the en-
ployers' publicity machinery would
popularize, that the railways and
other great industries are the VIC
TINS of some misfortune of the
times.
'The industrial paralysis which
has staggered America is capital on
strike against society," And capital
nationally and internationally or
ganized and concentrated, takea the
stand that capital strike shall go
on until labor comes to its knees
and consents to sweeping reductions
of wages and also consents to sur
render it ribht to bargain collect
lively on scale coextonsive with
the organization of the employers"
While laying off men in the rail-
road repair shops in the name of
economy, says the report, the rail-
roads were having their locomotives
and freight cars repaired in out
side shops at costs two and half
to four times as great as in their
own shops.
