TAXING EXEMPT SECURITIES.

There is pretty general agreement among
thoughtful people that we should put an end to the
issuance of tax-free securities. The issuance of such
securities thus far has drawn an immense amount
OF wealth from the tax lists, and has resulted in the
of vast sums from productive industries
for mere passive investment. The practice has been
highly injurious in the past, and if persisted in it is
bound to retard seriously the work of construction.
But the dlscontinuance of this unwise exemp-
ton when new securities are offered is a very diff
ferent thing from the imposition of taxation on Sc
curlties already issued under exemption provisions.
This course has sometimes been suggested.
1t is admitted that this change could not be ef-
fected without amendment Of the federal c%onstitu-
ton. That fact takes such a plan out of the realm
OF present possibilities and makes it needless to con-
slider it as a means of remedying any of our present
ills. theoretically a constitutional amendment
might be adopted and made effective within a very
short time. If the value of the proposed remedy
were universally recognized congress could propose
an amendment within two or three days, state leg
%islatures could be called into extra session and the
whole thing could be disposed of perhaps within a
month. In actual practice we know that nothing of
the sort is going to be done. If a movement in this
direction were started it would be a matter of years
before it could be completed.
Aside from the matter Of time there is the ele-
ment Of justice, and from that standpoint such a
step is unthinkable. The Liberty bond or the mu-
a contract between that individual and his govern
nent. If the contract specifies exemption from tax
alton that obligation is just as sacred as is the OBJ
legation of the government to pay, and a govern
ment cannot r~epudiate its obligations.
There may be some question whether or not
such a reputation could be effected even by a con-
stitutional amendment, providing the adoption of
an amendment were possible. The constitution
provides the means for its own amendment. The
agencies whereby amendments are to be made are
created by the constitution, as are, the courts which
pass upon the validity of amendments. AS a purely
academic proposition 1t may be suggested that a
court created by the ~constitution, and deriving it's
authority therefrom, would hold that it is beyond
the power Of congress and the state legislatures,
operating as constitutional agencies, to perform an
act which is not a mere amendment of the c%onstitu-
ton, but one contrary to and subversive of its entire
spirit, being in effect not an orderly constitutional
procedure, but an act OF revolution.

PICKETIMG

lhe federal supreme court recently rendered a
decision on the subject Of p~icketing in which, while
1t contained no definite prohibition of all picketing,
there was a distinct line drawn beyond which the
picket must not go. The court held that the cir
culnstances in each particular case must be taken
into count, but declared without qualification that
the person desiring to work must be permitted free
and unobstructed passage to and from work, and
that any action Of pickets to the contrary was un-
lawful.
1t seems a little strange that in a civilized So
Eciety such a decision should have been thought
necessary. It is like declaring that men and WON
scn must have air to breathe and food to eat in order
TO live. And yet there is constant denial Of the
right Of the individual to go to and from his work
Sunrnolestcd. There is such denial now, when. in
the strike OF packing company employees, blockades
are established around plants by strikers and their
ssyn1pathizers who prevent by force the passage to
and fro OF persons desiring to obtain or to continue
IN employment. In St. Paul it has been necessary
.to call on the military forces to clear the way and
afford protection to those who. wish to work.
Under certain conditions, aad conducted in an
orderly manner, picketing appears to be legal al
though il is held to be illegal in Kansas when un-
dertaken for the promotion Of an illegal strike. But
there are few cases in which, even though legal
lpicketing is not thoroughly offensive to the general
public. The average individual, we believe, re-
sents the spectacle Of a picket ~parading in front Of
a prescribed place of business. In the absence OF 4
special interest in the subject, q Of special i~nforn,a

Only Guy looked sympathetic, and
he stroked the pine table and said
nothing.
The rest of the meeting they gave
to a bellicose investigation of the fact
that there was seventeen cents less

half an hour in explosively defending

ton as to the particular controversy, the presence
OF the picket rather tends to prompt one to. enter
than to keep away. From this standpoint the use
of pickets to keep the public away from a place of
employed for the purpose Of preventing would-be
workers from filing places vacated by a strike, the
efficacy of the picketing depends in almost all cases
on the show or the suggestion of force.
