O6DeNL Lulle largely due to the
fact that the excessive direct taXauon
has driven into tax exempt securities
the fluid capital which is needed for
normal expansion of business. rms
effectually stops the wheels of indus
try. Stopping the wheels of industry
produces unemployment. There is no
remedy except to repeal the present
surtaxes on income not only because
they are freezing up capital, but be
cause their productivity is constantly
decreasing, they are almost lmpossl-
BILE TO collect, and the unsuccessful at
tempt to collect them will necessarily
tend to more evasion OF the duty
which they impose, and a consequent
decentralization OF the whole system OF
income tax.
Money Tied UP.
The amount of money tied up IN
municipal bonds and other taX-eXempt
securities in this country now amounts
20 from Il to Is billion dollars. There
is practically no tax upon the interest
which they pay. Take the case OF
rich man who has enough money to
subject him 10 the eight percent norm
al tax and the 6 percent surtaX-thls
means that he will have to get at least
to tax to make it equal in profit TO a
Az percent bond exempt from taxa
ton. No one can blame such man
for putting his money into tax-free
securities, and such as he form now
class of men who are rich and yet
at the same time practically free from
taxation
That people everywhere are taking
advantage of this means to escape
from excessive direct taxation is
proved by the fact that when the
heavy war surtaxes were adopted in
1917 incomes reported in excess OF
$500. 900 fell from an estimated $780,
100000 in 1916 to 319,000,000 in 1918.
Taxable incomes of over 100000 re
ported only S60,000,0 900 in 1920, com
pared with $990,000,000 in 1918. Tax
collections on these incomes were
s470,000 900 in 1918 and in 1920 S270,-
900 900.
Before the war no country or state
had successfully administered and
collected an income tax of more than
Is percent.
THE spendings tax bill which l have
introduced would repeal all surtaxes
on income and meet the needs of the
government for money by taxing what
is spent and not what it saved or in
vested This would render available
the liquid capital for the lack of which
industry is now being tied up, and
would actually encourage its invest
ment in industry instead of, as now
driving it into tax-exempt securities
1t would, moreover, tax incomes oil
more than $4,000 and leave those with
an income of two to four thousand dol
lars just where they are today. IT

BY Edna Kent Forbes

End the face treatment with an Ice rub
When we talk about beauty treat
ments we come down finally 10 one
principle that what the face needs
mostly is simply stimulation. If you
go out for talk in the cold air, the
wind stimulates the skin and you come
in with a clear complexion and glow
ing cheeks, and a wonderful feeling of
freshness. When you go to the seaside
the salt air and the salt water, sting
and stimulate the skin, and do it a
great deal of good.
But there is nothing in our every
day life to stimulate the skin, and
much to harm it, Therefore a little
artificial stimulation is a good thing.
You can give yourself a stimulating
treatment every time you wash your
face
If you have an oily skin you need
not use cold cream, but If you have
dry skin massage the face with a little
cold cream first because the stimulat-
ing treatment is more vigorous than
the ordinary face wash. First of all,
wiring an old towel from hot water,
hold it over the face and repeat two or
three times until the skin is red and
glowing. Then use your cold cream if
the skin is dry. In any case rub in
little lather from a mild soap, prefer
ably CASTLE. Then rinse with hot
water.
Rinse again with cold water to close
the pores of the skin. If possible fol-
low this by five or ten minute rub
with a piece of ice. There is nothing
better for shrinking large pores, for
making the skin fine and for bringing
color into the face than an ice rub. If
you cannot get ice, very cold water
with a little salt in it is an excellent
substitute.

point TO the fact that the opposition
which the house Democrats offered to
the measure was only crystallized al
ter four sessions of the Democratic
caucus had been held, and that when
the vote was taken four Democratic
members voted with the Republicans.
Democratic opposition to that pro-
vision of the act which repeats the
excess profits tax, and the provision
for the reduction of rates in the higher
brackets of the personal income tax,
is expected in the forthcoming CAM
paign. These sections will be con-
strued by the Democrats as relieving
the corporations and the individual
taxpayers of great wealth at the ex-
pense of the masses
The Republican reply to these
charges will be that elimination of the
excess profits tax and the substitution

of a flat tax on corporation earnings
will tend greatly to encourage a -e-
sumption Of industry and commerce,
and in that way will bring a larger
yield of taxes into the federal treas
ury than would retention of the ex-
cess profits tax; that a reduction of
the higher surtax will result in in
creased income from that source,
since the existing rates, extending up
as high as 65 per cent, have driven
much capital to investment in non.
taxable securities to avoid these ex
cessively high income rates.

In the anticipated event that the

becomes an important issue in the
New Mexican campaign Republican
leaders are prepared TO endorse it as
a measure which will afford relief TO
the masses of the American people,
and will make the tax burdens as
light as is consistent with the require

1t is the contention of the Repub

the provisions of the revenue act taxes
will be reduced in the aggregate $685.
