REwARDING THE PROFITEERS

Congress is about to repeal the excess-p profits
By way of partial substitute, fiat tax of Is cent
will be levied on the profits of corporations.
That sounds very simple and innocent but a mat
ter of fact it describes of the most brazen Jobs
put through the American Congress
Senator Jones, of New Mexico, who is given to
strong language declared in the Senate that it THE
MOST INFAMOUS THING THAT THE HUMAN MIND
CAN DEVISE"
And he submitted figures which voters should
paste in their hats they may have them handy when
the Senators and Congressman responsible for this
strosity home to make their explanations
First of ALL Senator Jones pointed that under
the arrangement all corporations which earned LESS
than Is per cent would have their taxes INCREASED
while those which earned MORE than Is per would
have their taxes DECREASED.
In other words, Congress DELIBERATELY PLACES
A PREMIUM ON PROFITEERING.
Senator Jones presented figures showing the profits
of 100000 corporations In the year 1918 they cleaned
up" S9000O00000
Of this enormous sum $50 corporations got away with
onefourth and their profits amounted to sS4s
100000 Under the bill which Congress about pass
they would pay s3oo,Ooo,ooo.
That that these $50 profteering corporations
would retain S50O000000 which under the
profits tax would go into the public treasury.
Now do you understand why there has been such a
persistent agitation in favor of repeating the
profits tax?
The who interested in the $50 corporations
are, of course willing spend millions have the law
wiped off the statute books They have the of Con-
gress but apparently the corporations which will have
their increased still in hissful ignorance of
what is about to happen to them.-Labor, WASH d. c.

THE BARBECUE AT AvERa LAST FRIDAY

The Barbecue last Friday at Pow.
ell Avera place in the Upper East
Side, was well attended drawing on
the surrounding country strongly.
The speaking was interrupted tenn
porariy by a shower. Otherwise
everything passed off nicely, the
dinner being served at goodly hour
and in way to give al a chance to
get something, the meat and bread
being passed out by helpers, Hon.
L. G. Franklin of Clarksdale, was
present and addressed the assembly
as the orator of the day, dwelling in
his speech upon the needs for re-
trenchment in this crucial time OF
the country's life. Franklin is a
pleasing speaker and has frank
open hearted manner Of meeting and
mlngling with people which wins
him friends everywhere he goes and
rings true with sincere democratic
attitude. At present he enjoys the
honor OF being President of she
Mississippi Yazoo Levee Commission
one of the most important boards
in the state and is serving in that
responsible position with distinction
lust as he did as State Senator from
his county, having stamped his name
with several important pieces of
legislation, so if he finally decides to
enter the race for Gavenor for which
he is being plumed by his friends he
will make formidable candidate in
deed and likely walk off with the
much convicted and highly priced
plum. Another who spoke at the
Barbecue was our friend, A. Nj.
Rayl of State Line who made some
announcements and remarks with
reference to the local Truck Growers
| Association in his community. Rayl
stated that he had made about a
$1,000 each year since coming to this
county and this speaks well for his
efforts. This has been good year
for truckers and we hope the fellows
up there will get closer organized
for another season and capture more
of the dollars from the Northern
markets with their timely raised pro-
duce.
