When Values Are Profits.

Corporations in the position of own
ing fixed assets which have appreci-
ated In value through the alchemical
pranks of time and imitation can thank
their stars that defiation is here and
that the income tax law works both
for and against fictitious profits on
these assets. The Supreme Court has
decided that an ordinary, well be-
haved mountain of the Mesaba range
holding in its bosom nothing more un-
usual than iron ore may enhance in
value In sixteen years to such an ex
tent as to make its owners liable TO
heavy excess profits taxes. The con-
venience and desirability OF owning
such fickle mountain may still be an
open question, but the liability for tax
alton on Its increased value is now
by hard and fast judicial opinion put
beyond cavil.
The Supreme Court decision is
grounded on the theory that Congress
meant to provide In the revenue law
that an appreciation in value OF capi-
tai assets constitutes a profit whether
such appreciation is realized In cash
or registered by an increase in capital
stock. Thus q profit In the bush Is
Just as taxable as profit In the hand,
snd the hidden assets we have been
hearing so much about as the basis
for stock dividends might just az well
come out and reveal themselves.
This matter of increased value Of
capital assets which is expounded in
the La Belle Iron Works decision also
tons which have increased their capi-
| tai stock for the purpose 80 often
stated "of bringing outstanding capital
in line with actual value Of assets and
invested capital" The line Of cleav-
age is between the value OF assets and
the volume Of invested capital.
Where actual earnings have been

rightly invested capital. Taxes al

Y into invested capital and they may be
included as such in computing nor
I NAL earnings on invested capital.
But when appreciation is due TO i'm
\ proved conditions or some other cause
not representing an actual Increase
of investment the enhanced property
value comes within the category of
profits and Is subject TO tax just as II
1t were income actually realized.
IN this there may appear TO be an
element Of double taxation. II the
ron ore deposits are worth more
now than they were worth sixteen
\ years ago Il may be argued this Is
only because the ore can be marketed
at a higher pro6t. In due season
these higher profits are taxed, and It
may seem that the increased value Of
the lands is thus adequately taxed.
But tlNre are various special con
ditions which make for higher value
OF assets without increasing the ac-
tual earnings from the use Of those
assets Discovery that the ore de-
posits we're larger or richer than
originally supposed would increase
the value Of the deposits their value
for future use or their ultimate sale
value would be enhanced. But this
would have no effect in bringing the
earnings from the extraction of ore

season. Now, the farmer had a repn-

but the hired man was not daunted by
it. They started out side by side, the
hired man being advised by the farm
er TO keep as close TO him as he could
with the row he was gathering.
But lol the new worker after a few
minutes of keeping up with the farm
er, passed him and soon was several
feet ahead. Frantically the farmer
pulled the ears from the stalks. but
the new man still kept gaining. Then
all at once he heard the farmer shout.

those desiring to abolish it and those
considering it still necessary is now
understood to have been settled by a
compromise.
NJ. Krylenko, former sailor, the
public prosecutor OF the Revolutionary
tribunal" led the fight for abolition,
according to newspapers in the Baltic
states. Dzerzhinski president of the
''Cheko" opposed him.
The government resolved on a re-
form of legal procedure under which
the tCheko's" powers are principally
confined to cases Of espionage and
participation in revolts but without
power to pass the death sentence ex-
cept in localities under martial law.
A supreme tribunal is to be estab-
lished. This is to act as the highest
legal body, as court of appeals and
also as an institution of supervision.
In exercising this supervision. the
tribunal must include a representative
of the 'tCheka''
In theory the revolutionary military
tribunals in the army and on the rail-
ways are abolished, unless military
operations or uprissngs render their
necessary. The functions at
present exercised by these courts will
be transferred to special departments
which are to have the right to pass
sentence of death in regions not un-
der martial law.
