The Confiscation Of Wealth
PERCY H. JOHNSTON, IN FORUM.

Tho power tn tax is h power TO
destroy" said Chief Justice JOHN Mar
shall. The exercising today Of that
power beyond tile limits of discretion
and good Judgment will uaqucstion-
ably spoil disagtcr. The prosperity OF
the country depends upon the taxation
laws in q larger measure than is gen
orally appreciated, and 1t is therefore
that every man, and child in
The land is directly concerned in the
provisions Of the temporary tax law
.Fc.entiy passed by congress. Since
the ssifish dictates Of human nature
compel one to look at the proposition
from the standpoint of how he himself
usii be affected, II will &c well to an
dlyze the continuation Of high s~urtaxes
on incomes ard profits from tho stand
point of the various parties interest
cd.
Contrary to the generally accepted
opinion. the rich man has less fault to
find with high rates on large Incomes
thar any other class, since all he has
to do is to invest his wealth in securi-
ties which are exempt from taxation.
1t is not the possession of wealth that
has come to be regarded in h eyes
Of the law makers as criminal and
therefore to be punished. but It is rath-
er the acquiring of wealth hat is
judged a menace and for that reason
to be abolished. The rich men realize
that being the possessor of property,
he should contribute more toward de
ferring the cost of operating the STATE
than his less fortunate brother. but he
does object to what seems to him to
be confiscation by due process of law
Should his business ventures this year
prove unsuccessful. he is obliged tc
the entire loss. while he is still
liable for enormous taxes because OF
last years profits. He is playing q
game by the rules of which. IL he Is
successful. the Government claims a
large part of the profits. Should he BIZ
unsuccessful. the total loss is to b.
borne by him. This Val that he IL

forded to better ones state through
~endeavor. Let us be not unminJful OF
the fact that II was the young men OF
limited means and unlimited ambition
expressed In ~endeavor. who desiring
the rewards of success. has becon-e
big man of today. It Is obviously
unwise to enact Legislation the result
Of which will be to discourage saving
on the part of the man OF moderate
means.
To kill the goose that lays the gold
en- egg proved nl-advised long ago. To
increase h burden at the top and ex-
pect thereby to lessen the pressure at
the bottom is a fallacy. To drive capt
ia. out of productive channels. and
to flood the country with tax exempt
municipal. county. aud state bonds IL
to stop the wheels Of industry. To
console oneself in the belief that by
Increasing the amount of municipal
work to BIO done will permanently re-
heve unemployment is to attempt to
raise oneself by ones boot straps.

Prosperity of trade is just as much a
factor in the tax yield az is the rate.
Taxes should be adjusted to business
rather than business to taxes. Con-
sumption and not profit is tho proper
basis for taxation. A system of taxa
lon under which e years profits are
mortgaged to pay this years taxes is
unsound and breedsIa feeling Of uncer-

pIvERTINc NEEDED CAPITAL.

One Of the vital matters already before congress in
the form of a bill by the committee on banking and
currency, that will affect the whole nation and for the
sure cure a present fault in our financial system, is
an amendment to the federal constitution prohibiting
the exemption of state, county, municipal and other
securities from taxation.
The president most clearly net forth the situation in
his message to congress of December 6, when he said
"Many of US belong to that school of thought which
is hesitant about altering the fundamental laws. l
think our tax problems, the tendency of wealth to seek
non-taxable investment, and the menacing increase Of
public debt, federal, state and municipal-al justify a
proposal to change the constitution so as to end the
issue of non-taxable bonds. No action can change the
status of the many billions outstanding, but we can
guard against future encouragement Of capitals par
alysis, while a halt in the growth of public indebted
ness would be beneficial throughout our whole land.
"Such a change in the constitution must be very
thoroughly considered before submission. There ought
to be known what influence it will have on the newt
able refunding of our vast national debt, how it will
operate on the necessary ~refunding of state and MUM
cipal debt, how the advantages of nation over state
and municipality, or the contrary, may be avoided
Clearly the states would not ratify to their own appa.
rent disadvantage. I suggest the consideration be-
cause the drift of wealth into non-taxable securities
is hindering the flow of large capital to our indus
tries, manufacturing, agricultural, and carrying, un.
til we are discouraging the very activities which make
our wealth."

plsruRBs THE GOVERNORS PARTY.

The occasion was not without its amusing features
when the federal prohibition enforcement officer,
armed with a search warrant, raided the hotel where
officials of the commonwealth and other dignitaries
were banquetting His Excellency, the governor of
Massachusetts; and removing the w~herewithal designed
to make the after dinner speeches worth while and to
bring the auditors to that delightful state of apprecia-
ton when the dull and commonplace assumed the .cin-
tillation of the real.
It was doubtless a cruel and unusual act, as viewed
by the hosts at the party; but, from this distance 1t
seems to have been the deed Of a brave and efficient
officer who had a high regard for his duty and his oath
of office.
The banquetters fairly caught and held up to pub
lie scorn have proven woefuily poor sportsmen, by at
tempting to "vindicate their honor" and secure the
return Of the 'evidence."
The ordinary bootlegger sets a better example.
When he is caught with the goods, he recognizes his
guilt and takes his punishment. The state official
whines about his honor, demands the removal.of the
%erresting officer and wants his liquor returned. His
mock heroies makes his predicament more ludicrous.
Meanwhile the public is smiling politely and wonder
ing whether Mr.. Haynes will award the Volstead medal
of honor to his Boston enforcing officer, fire him from
his job or remove him to another part of the country
where his efforts may be more fully appreciated.

The common birthright Of every

Incentive il thcvery soul of endeavor,

THE COMING AND THE GOING

IL Is but natural that We turn with hope 70 inc
dawning year. We know the good and III OF ina. wmeh
!. na.siny and we are human enough to want more
of the former and less of the latter in what is to come
II we are more deserving possibly our desire may De
realized. But we are passing through a per1od tha'
s. vet much disorder in the world, and the human fam
iy seems slow in turning from the riot Of war to the
calm of peace.
There is every indication, however, of inclination
70 do the essential things to establish a new era. We
have taken up these essentials with something like
the old determination that in former years produced
results. If the world continues to show confidence IN
our leadership and we continue to grow in wisdom
there is no reason to doubt the better things the world
will receive with the coming year. j..
The hope seems well founded, but individual and
collective effort in industry, economy and right lv-
ing are to be the forces that viii bring the hope OF a
prosperous 1922 to a complete realization.
Let us bid the old year with its soned habitfments
goodbye, and let it go hence; and welcome the new
enc with its bright clean raiment and do our utmost
to keep the soil and stain from its garments.
