Is This an Embarrassment of Riches? ?

the economists who tell us that the
inflow of the gold to the United States
beginning early in the World war was
an important factor in cheapening the
dollar and increasing prices.
Whether prices and the purchasing
power of the dollar ever will return
to the pre-war level is a universal
question which the economists answer
with the assertion that until our gold
hoard diminishes materially prices
will not decline materially.
Prof. Irving Fisher of Yale univer-
sity looks for rise in wholesale prices
and reviving business next fall.
The Stable Money league is study
ing the phenomena of price move
ments with a view to recommending
legislation to counteract such fiuctua-
tions in the purchasing power of the
dollar as have upset industry, com
merce, and household economy in the
last few years.
Professor Fisher proposes to stabil-
lie the dollar by increasing its gold
content when there is tendency OF
gold to depreciate and decreasing Its
gold content when the tendency of
gold is to appreciate.

More Than One Way to Pay Income Tax

a PPROXIMATELY $20,000,0O0 was
"a added to the government rev.
cnues during the fiscal year just ended
through recoveries from false and
fraudulent income tax returns, Com
missioner Blair announced recently.
Indictments have been returned dur
ing the year in every section of the
country, he said, and many Jail SEN
tences have been imposed, ranging
from 60 days to year, in addition TO
the fines and penalties, which were
also assessed.
Fraud upon the government by
filing false and fraudulent tax returns
appears in many unique ways" Mr.
Blair said. "Some taxpayers are ex-
remely crude in their methods, and
reduce their taxes by merely omit
ling large items of income from their
returns.
"Manipulations of inventory are not
lnfrequently found, and these can al
ways be checked accurately by the
field examiners of the bureau, and no
business of any size can keep ac-
curate books and at the same time
manipulate inventories. Some taxpay-
The Colorado statesman., 1921-08-13

ers, evidently, are of the belief that
they can hire INSCRIPTIONS account
ants who reconstruct their books, and
then if the fraud is discovered blame
it all on the accountants, to whom
they usually pay large fees"
In many instances field examiners
have discovered that taxpayers keep
two sets of books, one set accurately
setting forth the status of the bust
ness and the other set fraudulently
setting forth their income, and merely
kept for the purpose of defrauding
the government. 1t is safe to say that
in nine out of ten Of these latter cases
the fraud is discovered within short
time after 1t is perpetrated.

EVERY MEMBER GET ANOTHER
Indications Are That Big Campaign
Will Double Membership of
American Legion.

The "every-member-ge -get-a-member"
campaign of the American Legion has
begun, and reports received at the ma
tional headquarters at indianapolis in
dicate that tho purpose of the cam
paign, to double the membership, will
soon be accomplished.
To double the membership of the
Legion was the ardent wish of +. w.
Galbruith Jr., late national comman-
der, who was killed in an automobile
accident ut indianapolis. His success
sor. John G. Emery of Grand Rapids
Mich, was probably the first memeer
of the Legion TO get member when
the present campaign opened.
Mr.. Galbraith planned the campaign
short time before his death. He
was anxious to have the membership
doubled by October. 1t now appears
that the campaign will end before that
time.
In his statement setting out plans
for the campaign. Mr.. Galbraith said ::
"The Legion has earned the right to
do something in national way pri-
marily in the interests of its organi-
zation, and the time has come to eNer-
else that right. i propose that the
American Legion shall exactly double
its membership. A tremendous under

Only One Pilot for the National Aircraft

The position of President Harding
In the matter is that amalgamation
will work to efficiency and economy
One great difficulty pertaining to the
present separate aircraft services that
has impressed him Is that there Is no
systematic method of awarding con-
tracts for the construction of aircraft.
One branch awards contracts without
regard to any other government air
craft organization, and the President
believes that this Is detrimental 10 the
upbullding Of private aircraft manu-
facture In the United States.
The aircraft manufacturers are de-
pendent almost entirely on govern"
ment patronage, as commercial de-
mands are small, and 1t is claimed
that unless the government so ar
ranges its contracts as to distribute
contracts among all those concerns
which produce aircraft meeting gov
ernment standards, some of them may
be Obliged to go out of business.
In these circumstances President
Harding Is understood to feel that a
central government aircraft organiZa-
ton will be better able to determine
how contracts should be awarded for
the entire government.
Inference is drawn from what
is learned of the Presidents position
that he is in favor of the amalgama-
