CHICAGO, Aug. 9.-The great Amer
lean appetite for smoked ham and
country sausage is falling of.
consumption of meat and lard in the
United States last year was 1S pounds
less per person, according to Thomas
E. Wilson, president of the Institute OF
American Meat Packers.
This, MI Wilson said in opening the
annual convention here is one Of the
reasons the packing industry is just
now emerging from a very unsatisfactory
year.
Much Of the conventions time will be
given to considering packer control legis-
lation IN Congress. Mr.. Wilson ex-
pressed himself as in favor Of a measure
of a government regulation.
IF some such legislation can be worked
out which will clear the public mind Of

any figures on tax payments. They con-
fine their attention to increased assess
ments of intangIbles and omit everything
else. And they talk as freely about
things that they do not know as about
things that are known. For example,
neither Governor Goodrich nor any other
person knows what proportion of Indiana
taxes is paid on intangibles. There Is
no report Of It, and no data from which
1t can be computed. His statement that
it pays less than per cent Of our
taxes" is merely his guess, but it is
probably fairly good guess.
But II, can be said with some GER
talnty that il intangible property pays
even 2 per cent Of Indiana taxes, it pays
more than in any State where classical
ton has been tried. Maryland appears
to have obtained better results from the
classification system than any other
State. In 1919 it had a return of 1927,
040,316 Of intangibles. which was a drop
from 1894. 702, 1872 In 1918 These paid local
taxes at 30 cents on 500, or 1881, 100 9j.
The State tax was 10 cents on 500, but
al the State does not tax securities held
by railroad companies, the amount taxed
was s270O59 All, and the State tax col
Iected was $4O5, Oso.20 or total OF

IN EAST.
In Connecticut after twenty light
years experience, Connecticut began 1t
four years before Maryland-in 1918, the

sECU RITES
THAT ESCAPE.

The principal intanglbles, subject to
taxation, which escape taxation in In
diana. are securities Of foreign cor
poratlons. of which the amount IS con-
paratively small, mortgages and bank
deposits Taxation Of these is evaded
chiefly because the legislature has never
been willing to enact adequate laws for
their collection. The owners of intangi-
bles do not escape tho national income
tax, because they know it Is not safe to
try TO do so There used to be trouble
about the collection Of the State LIQUOR
license; but there was rarely any diff
Guilty about collecting the national in
ternal revenue tax on liquors. The talk
about It being impossible to collect taxes
on intangibles, and about the general
property tax having broken down." are
all nonsense But these taxes VIII not be
collected until the people realize that
taxation is a moral question; and thar
every tax -dodger is robbing every honest
taxpayer; and deserves no more consid-
GRAFTON than any other robber That Is
the principal that the National Govern
ment proceeds upon. and that is why IL
collects the tnxes it levies.
And this calls attention to the Gov
ernor's second proposition, that by elias

The children-three hundred thousand
Of them-are being fed by the American
Relief Administration. Their kitchens

wonderfully carried out
American charity also is aiding in some
measure some Of the most destitute of the

money is used for food packages dis
tributed by The A. A. R., and have fol-
lowed up some of these cases and havS
been witness to heart rending scenes.
To further aid this class, community
kitchens have been opened, where for
price that is less than a tenth part Of ar
American penny, a nourishing mesl Is
provided. This work is largely in the
hands Of Austrian organizations.
