DISCUSSED BY HARDING

w WASHINGTON, April 90
President Warren G. Harding
this afternoon discussed with
his Cabinet the possibilities of
the problem of developing AL
aska's wood pulp resources for
the relief of the print paper
situation. Although the de-
tailed policies are yet to be
formulated by the administra-
ton, President Harding said he
was hopeful that a way would
be found to make Alaska pulp
wood readily available for the
American publishers. One sue-
gestion was advanced and this
was for the establishment of
steamship line between Seattle
and Seward. This proposal is
expected to receive the consid-
Grafton of the new Shipping
Board.

TAXATION AS AN ISSUE.

A T the close Of very interesting pamphlet contain
N ing scres Of arguments in support Of the policy Of
collecting debts due tho United States from foreign coun-
tries the Hartman National Bank, OF New York says
There probably never was election for President Of
the United States less governed by partisan politics than
that which carried the Republican candidate TO once by
ballot surprising all previous bailots The authoritative
reason therefor the hope for reduced taxation in the
achievement OF which the Incoming party has the all but
unanimous confidence OF the-peopce"
Tfis is undoubtedly true statement, but should be
taken in it's broadest sense
The people anxious for redwood taxation not merely
as Indicated by lower figure their reoepts but
by substantial evidences OF economical management Of
the nations business And there taxes not measured
In terms OF dollars
The Wilson administration proposed to impose upon he
American people league OF nations tax in the form Of
men as well as money incident 10 participation in all
the broils growing out CT European politics.
The Wilson administration proposed to levy an intan-
gible tax which Mr.. Wilson very properly designated the
supreme sacrioe." The American people refused their
approval TO that tax, and manifested their confidence that
he Republicans would protect them from IT,
The very first act OF Mr. Harding affecting his mourn
oency as President was along the line OF reduction o. tax
aton-his nsistence that the inaugural ceremony be
characterized by simplicity that would avoid unneces-
sary expense II is worthy OF note too, that Mt Harding
used the word simplicity" and not economy
Simplicity includes economy and more
Economy saves taxation in the one instance directly
simplicity establishes frame Of mind a national
policy, which saves taxes In innmerable ways
AS matter OF fact, the we nay 10 the oflclaa
aN-conecor are the least Of the burdens upon our ex-
cequer The taxes levied by vanity are far heavier
and was relief from taxes as well as official taxes
that Mr. Handing wanted to secure for the peopr ~ ths
country when he appesed merely for economy but
simplicity.
Ine Hartman bank rs arguing for ooseoton of IN
erest upon debts due the United States by fore cou
les and funding Of The debts in definite negotiable
instruments
hls Is absolutely sound and there is doubt that by
hthering tat end The incoming Republican admnistra-
ton will tighten the burden OF the American taxpayer
When debtors to pay the interest they owe we
snail be sded TO that extent in paying the interest we
owe and shall tighten our taxes accordingly
