Rather than failing to advance a con-

feels that the president has merely
"refrained from placing himself in the
category Of overload, telling congress
what to do and how to do it." In
stead. he has outlined the matters on
which legislation is needed and left it
"where the responsibility belongs
with congress" Thus. with that prac-
tical wisdom which is the essence of
real craftsmanship" the Kansas City

ed a program which is mot the dicta-

his orders to congress. but sound con-
clusions, submitted to con-
eress as the recommendations of its

T0day's Subject:
PUTTING THE AMERICAN HOUSE
IN ORDER

Although most of the President 'e
message to Congress was devoted to q
discussion Of domestic affairs, and ne
himself has emphasized the necessity
Of putting the American house in or
der, nevertheless editorial comment IL
confined very largely to foreign affairs.
This may or may not be an index OF
the relative Importance to the press oi
external and internal policies. In ex-
planation Of it's observation that
most Of the newspaper comment upon
President Harding's address has been
directed to that part dealing with in
ternational affairs and the problems
Of peace the Philadelphia North
American (Prog.) points out that there
is not "a single suggestion in reference
to domestic issues which is likely to
provoke any serious controversy even
though these matters more intimate
Iy concern the people, individually and
collectively
Lack Of controversy, however, il
accounted for by the Pittsburgh Ga,
zatte Times (Rep.) in the popular
concurrence" which it confidently as.
sumes will be accorded the President
lin his domestic policies, which looh
to the restoration of integrity in Amer,
lean government and business and
even the Brooklyn Eagle (Ind. Dem
agrees that the country will not
quarrel with Harding's domestic poll
cies." 1t is precisely because 1.-The
Presidents admirable exposition o.
our domestic questions fully respond
to the temper and purpose Of the
nation,' according to the Springfield
Union (Rep.), that lit may be passed
with little comment other than ap-
proval."
1t is quite true that for the most
part editorial opinion on that phase Of
the address is distinctly favorable. ire

(Dcm.) feels that Mr.. Harding shows
that ''he now has comprehensive and

public could be brought to see that
they have been paying the big in
come taxes and the excess profits
tax in the past through the process
Of tax shifting, and that it must
ever be 50 in any tax levied on the
production Of wealth. The pro-
ducer hands the tax to the con-
suner and one consumer passes 1t
on to another where he can do It,
and he often can do it. All taxes
with slight exceptions are shifted
and diffused 50 everyone pays
them in the end who has occasion
to use goods or services-and that
is everybody rich and poor, alike.
The more direct and simple tax
is. the better, for it is likely to be
less where we all know it for tax.
The more complex it is and the
more hands it passes through, the
more difficult it is to detect it and
estimate its amount. Also in natur-
ii sequence, the heavier it is likely
to be when 1t reaches the consumer.

know that they are being taxed
even if it involves heavier burdens
laid on them.

DEFICITS IN STATE
INSTITUTIONS.

WELLINGTON D. RANKIN
w created something like a SEN
sation when he made public his
intention to refuse to permit any
state department to exceed the ap-
preparation made for its support by
the state legislature. Mr.. Rankin
is a member of the state board of
examiners by virtue of his office.
The governor is another member
and the secretary Of state is the
third member. No warrant on state
funds can be issued without the con-
sent of these three officials, and
Of course, they have the power to
prevent any state institution from
exceeding the appropriation made
for them. There is no question
about that power, though there is
grave doubt of their power to sign
warrants after the appropriation
has been spent. But they have been
doing this for a long time past,
and several legislatures have ex-
pressed resentment over the fact
but ended by growing little and
then passing a deficiency appropri-
alton to cover the excess warrants.
The attorney general says there
will be no more Of this while he
is on the board Of examiners, and
that if any department OF the state
over-spends its allotment there will
have to be a special session called
to appropriate more money or the
department 60 without funds. He
will appeal to the courts. if neces-
sary, he says, in order to prevent
deficits in the future, and the gen
eral public will say Amen. Gov
ernor Dixon who is also a member
of the state board Of examiners,
starts nervously at the very men-
ton Of a special session, and posi-
tively announces that he will not
call one and If one is called, it will
have to be called by some other
man. Inasmuch as only the gov
ernor can call an extra session, this
sarcasm of the governor may be
directed at the attorney general.
Governor Dixon does not like to
hear the name Of extra session" :"
It recalls poignant experiences, and
Attorney General Rankin ought to
have been more careful Of the gov
ernor's feelings than to talk IN this
free and easy manner Of an extra
session Of the legislature. He
must know that the phrase suggests
a tragedy to Governor Dixon, who
would rather see the devil at the
state house than another session OF
the present legislature.
However, we have the assurance
of the attorney general that
there will be no more OF these
deficits without the convening
of an extra session of the legis-
lature and the assurance of the
governor that there will be no such
thing as an extra session, and both
assurances will meet with applause
on the part Of the taxpayer. Being
forewarned, it is probable, that the
state institutions and departments
will use more care than usual to
stop inside their appropriations
where it comes to spending money,
and that will be a mighty good
thing also. Il will tend to needed
economy. So we feel like coH-
mending both the governor and the
attorney general for their emphatic
