More of the Keller Bills

To the Editor: / quite agree with
Mr.. Bosch that "labor creates all
wealth." but I do not agree with his
next statement that nothing but Ia
Dor. can be taxed" The reason is
plain. The value of land is not veal
tn. It is a value that arises with the
presence and development of people
and the development of civilization.
This value is :.eated and sustained
by the people not by anything that the
owner of the -tftie~ to, the land may
have done or not done. Land natur-
ally rich and productive has no value
until people need it to use, and land
absolutely barren, like the rocks on
which. a part of New York city is
built will have great value when the
people need 1t to USE
This land value which the people
create and sustain morally belongs to
the whole people and not to the for
tunate few who may happen to own
the title.
The Keller bill proposes to take
small part of this publicly created
value to help meet the expenses Of the
federal government. Nothing could be
simpler than this.
value which is taken for public use,
the less will be left with the owner
of the title to make him into a mil
lionafre. He cannot increase the sell
ing price of his land; for I am sure
even Mr.. Bosch will admit that the
more it cost the land grabber to hold
his land idle, the sooner he will re-
duce the price so as to sell it. This is
just as true Of valuable city lots, min
eral land. water power sites as it is
OF. comparatively valueless form of
land.
l don't know what Mr.. Bosch, is
driving at when he says that "land
values are not the only ~unearned in
crement." l have always supposed
land values were the only unearned
increment that amounted to enough to
be worth considering. Let him point
out some other unearned increment
and then we can discuss it.
Mr.. Bosch is wrong again that tax
es on land values are shifted to the
consumer in higher prices. There is
mt a. writer ON political economy in
the last 100 years that agrees with
him.
The iron ore taxes provided for in
the so-called tonnage tax bill of last
winter and the royalty tax bill could
not be shifted to the consumer, but
would simply reduce the net profits
of the iron land owners.
have always favored public own
ership of natural monopolies; but the
best way to get it is to first tax most
Of the selling price out of those
monopolies. F..
Will Mr.. Bosch please explain just
how the steel trust, the coal trust, the
oil trust or thesbig timber land own.
ers would be able Ito break up their
land into small holdings so as to
avoid the tax or the rich lot owners
for that matter? +y.* :. -, =
7 do not favor the abolition of the
excess profits taxes. That is not so
vital a feature Of the Keller proposal.

The Keller Tax Bill

- t@:r@ The Keller J0x Bill -.
+ To the Editor: shall try to give
Mr. Buell. the pleasure he anticipates
in a discussion of the Keller bill in
which a federal land tax Is proposed.
Meanwhile, l. would suggest that
MIR: Buell. take some notice OF his OPP
ponent's arguments. y y r.. -.
In my article of July 26, stated
that labor creates all wealth; that
nothing but labor can be taxed; that
land values are, not the only unearned
increments, and that the holder of mo-
nopoly can shift the tax to the con-
sumer. ;
MR. Buell. in his last letter states
that nine.tenths of land values are in
mines, timber, waterpOwer, wharf and
dock privileges and large land: hold:
ings. 49,.
This, according to the proposed Kel.
der bill, is to be taxed in order to raise
one billion in revenue to replace the
deficiency caused by the abolishing OF
excess profits and other taxes.
Now all the land values enumerated
are natural monopo1ies.
Mine taxes as shown in the tonnage
tax fight are shifted to the consuming
public, while a profits tax cannot be
"a conclusion l think held by Mr.
Buell. himself at that time. altho ap'
parently repudiated by him now.
The owner. of a waterpower site
would make the consumer pay his
tax. What is the matter with public
ownership Of natural monOpolies, Mr.
Buell.? ...-...,-
All that the large land holder needs
to do is to break it up into small hold.
ings and escape taxation according to
the Keller bill, which would defeat its
purpose of raising revenue.
Mr.. Buell. promises prosperity to
farmers by forcing all agricultural
lands into cultivation, thereby increas
ing the exportable surplus and lower
ing the prices which do not cover the
cost Of production now.
Timber is being destroyed at an
earning rate now, yet the Keller bill
would force the destruction more rap
idly thru taxation in order to re-
lieve the profiteers from paying their
just taxes on the difference in the
wages paid to the workers, and the
price paid by the public
A patent medicine advertisement is
tame reading compared with the
claims of the defenders of the Keller
panacea, the land values tax; but even
a superficial analysis reveals it's weak
ness, and that it's operation would de-
feat itself in raising revenue.
