FOR GRAVE CONSIDERATION.

Editorial from the Wall Street
JournaD.
Investors naturally seek safety, and
in the present uncertainty of tax levies,
to say nothing of the heavy burden
they turn in self protection to taX-eN-
empt bonds. OF these bonds it is est
mated that there are about $4,000, ,OOO'-
600 in the United States. 1t need hard
ly be said that We levy income tax on
foreign securities held by American in
vestors regardless of whether these
are tax exempt in the countries OF issue.
But there is a definite menace in our
tax exempt bonds which it would be
foolish TO ignore.
1t is not a question Of whether, under
some future ruling of the Supreme
Court at Washington, that part of the
income tax amendment which speci-
fies from whatever source derived
will be held to apply TO municipal and
other securities. Such ruling might
hold these subject to income tax and
inferentially, to that tax since the pas
sage of the amendment. 1t is not even
the possibility that Congress may leg
islate to impose income tax on these
bonds. The consideration is a deeper
one and should commend itself to all
thoughtful minds.
1t is complained with justice that
legislative bodies do not look at the
secondary consequences of the laws
they enact. 1t is 10 be feared alsc
there are investors who do not look
deeper than the superficial safety OF
their investment. They do not see
the moral effect in the future Of exemp-
ting no less than $7OO,OO0,0O0 of income
from our greatest direct tax. They dc
not realize what will be the attitude OF
the payer Of the taxes, direct and in
direct, which go to provide this i'm
mense and privileged income.
It is all very we'll to say that the
investor bought these bonds in gooe
| faith, and that in the entirely prob
able event Of a four per cent money
market he will have to buy these long
term bonds so much above par thai
the value Of the privilege will be extin
guished in the price. All privilege has
a price; and it will be seen that this
future increment arising out Of cheaper
money will not go into the pubic
pocket, although the legislature Great
ed the privilege. OF course the public
borrower got value for the money, II
the respect that public bodies coulC
not borrow on any other terms. BuI
the privileged tax-exempt class Will re
main and will be u growing source OF
unrest and discomfort.
The parallels are deceptively deadly
1t was the tax-eXempt property of the
mobiles and the Church which brought
about the intolerable oppression Of the
French peasantry-the sole taxpayer
and the revolution. The parallel is fal
from exact for the title to our tax
exempt bonds is legally and morally IN
defeasible. But the soundness Of
policy of working to get these bond'
out of the way or reduced to the leve
Of other bonds IL one for the most earn
est consideration.

NFARY JANE and Miss Walker,
Nl the school teacher, were the
best friends you ever saw. Miss
Walker was going to get married in
the Spring. But that didn't prevent
her from helping Mary Jane with her
lessons. Or telling about how long the
Amazon River was, and everything.
So one day Mary Jane was eating
her lunch in school, and Mary Jane
said, miss Walker, did you ever
taste Mary Jane Syrup spread on
bread?" And Miss Walker said she
hadn't. So Mary Jane gave her a
half of a big spread she had. And
they sat there and ate their lunch
andvisited-and Miss Walker said she
never tasted anything nicer her life.

LOCAL BALL CLUB
ASKS ASSISTANCE
Make plea to Business Men Of the City
to Keep Organization in Existence.

AS many Of the fans know that in
the early part of the season the Pen
sacola baseball club played teams that
were not in the class of the local club,
and that inclement weather and the
immediate purchasing of paraphernal-
Ia, etc. and the cost OF running the
club was very high, and the returns
from the games in lots of cases did
not pay the expense of the visiting
club, the club soon found itself In
debt and could not get out of 1t by the
gate receipts from the games. Although
the club has been holding its own for
the past two months, the local man
agement may have decided to launch a
campaign which will begin Monday
morning at 1880 o'clock to help clear
the club of this debt. The following Is
the plan of the campaign:
1.-THE Pensacola baseball club, organ
ICED the beginning of the season by the
chamber of commerce for the purpose
of having league ball at Maxent park
this season, but which failed to mater

INDIANS DRAWING
AWAY FROM YANKS
While Pittsburg Is Holding Same Lead
on the Giants-Boston Sees Hopes
of Second Place.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-The Cleve-
land world champions and their New
York Yankee rivals are stumbling
along in their efforts to outdistance
each other in the American league pen
nant race, while Pittsburg now has lit
tie to fear from the New York Giants
in the National league chase. The In
dams play host to the Yankees this
week and the Pirates visit New York.
A double defeat suffered by the Yam
KEGS today, while Cleveland was win
ming, put the eastern team two and
one-half games behind the world
champions. Pittsburg is six and one
half games ahead of New York.
The American league honors should
go to the club whose pitching staff
steadies for the final squirt next month
New York is outbatting Cleveland at
present, but there Is little to choose
between the pitching strength Of the
two teams. washington is Tightening
its grip on third place by good twirl-
ing. Johnson displayed old time form
last week, Erickson shutting out Chi
cago with three hits in thirteen in
nings Saturday, and Mogridge white
washed the White Sox today. Boston
continued its good play of the previ-
Gus two weeks mad advanced to fifth
place, close behind ST. Louis. The
pitchers of the other second division
teams, on the whole, are being hit
hard.
The Rittsburg Nationals have firm
grasp on the pennant. If the Pirates
win % of their remaining SO games,
New York could go into first place
only by winning rs out of So. Pittsburg
has marked edge on its rival in both
pitching and batting. Since July 80,
when the two rivals were tied for first
place, the Pirates have won 15 games
and lost 5, while New York won 10 and
lost 13.
With the Giants faltering, Boston
sees hope of capturing second place.
The Braves moundsmen are not per-
forming in the manner that carried
the team along in mid-July, but the
team batting partly Is offsetting this
weakness.
Brooklyn braced when st. Louis
threatened its fourth place position.
Although the Superba pitchers are do
ing well, it is too late for the team
to advance. Cincinnati Is doing the
best of the second division teams. st.
Louis and Philadelphia are hitting
well, while Chicago Is playing in and
out games. The Quakers fought hard
before losing three out of five to Pitts
burg last week.

Equipment and stock accounts have
been omitted from above statement as
believe that for the purpose desired in
this campaign. we need deal only with
cash accounts.
The club can break even for the bal
ance of the season providing attendance
remains the same as previous two months
inasmuch as very little loss has been sus-
tained for the last sixty days, above in
debedness occurring mostly in first so
days when high salaries were paid play
ers.
Our present payroll is $500 per month
or 5000 week "a reduction of over 100
per cent? which we can clear with pres
ent attendance figures. Money received
in this campaign will go towards iquidat-
ing past Indebtedness, finance committee
guaranteeing that there will be no further
expenditures other than those absolutely
necessary and that statement of club will
appear monthly in newspapers showing
progress made.

ensacOla and BrewtOn Play Tie Game

ialize through no fault of Pensacola,
has just been incorporated for $4,000
for the express purpose of having or
ganized baseball next season, and we
believe it proper to say right here that
we have practically clinched a place
/ in the Cotton States league for 1922 at
this time, which viii play class CO.
baseball.
'FThe management of the newly in
corporated company has been placed
in the hands of financial committee
composed OF H. H. D'A1emberte, H. b.
Larkin and w. F. Biggs, to handle all
the affairs of the club for the balance
of this season. We find upon going
over the books that due to the small
amount of stock subscribed at the be-
ginning of season and the bad start
we experienced due to inclement
weather mad weak opponents, that the
club is on the wrong side Of the ledger,
but that for the past two months has
been holding its own.
The finance committee believes that
there are enough loyal fans in this city
who wish to see good baseball TO help
us out for this season, and has in
structed the writer to send this letter
to each business organization of Pen
sacola with the request that you pre-
sent this before your next meeting
asking that each member pledge him
self to donate one to five dollars per
month for August, September and Oc-
tober. One thousand such pledges will
put the club on a sound financial ba-
sis and permit us to book a good sched-
uIo A1~ the rest of 1921.
''Wc feel sure that each and every
bus fnss IS man of Pensacola is proud of
oul yam this year, and the small con-
triburio1 asked for will be well spent
as Iensacola has received wonderful
advertising this season all over the
south through It's splendid team. The
Pensacola baseball club is not pri-
vately owned corporation intending to
make or show a profit, but a civic en-
terprise fostered by the local chamber
of commerce, and has been incorpor-
ated merely to have the proposition
managed in business-like way for
the protection of those loyal citizens
who by their purchases of stock this
spring made high class baseball IN
Pensacola possible. This campaign for
further funds, If met with favor, will
not work hardship on anyone, and
still allow US to finish the season in
a creditable manner. Baseball OF a
brand furnished you this season boosts
Pensacola. Let's keep it up.
Trusting that this action meets
with your approval, and thanking you
in advance for anything you may do
to assist us in the above matter, we
beg to remain
Respectfully yours,
