One Cause of High Taxes

One of the results of high taxation that capital seeking
evade it, into federal state and municipal bonds and
other securities made attractive by exemption from taxation
AS result the wealthy enabled escape their just share
of taxaton the burden falling all the heavier upon the prop
erty owner farmer, business and person of small
means.
AS consequence there has been overstmuaon of the
bond market Stacker wealth sought to evade taxation The
ease with which public securities could be marketed have
led to multiplicity of public bond issues many Of which
could have been eliminated by rigorous economy The inter-
est the bonds must be paid which also increases taxation
The country needs industrial revival needs reconstruction
needs prosperity which capital integenty used could
produce But capital seeking to escape taxation hides in
nontaxabe securities and industry and enterprise must pay
usurous interest to attract it contributing to indus
trial depression and also of profiteering.
There nationwide shortage Of dwellings and of build
ngs but high the INVESTOR who puts his money
into the notaxabe securities instead of buildings AS a.
result the landlord marks up the rent to his increased
taxes and then some and additional hardship is worked
upon the public
All securities, matter what their origin, should be tax
able The security furnished should be attractive enough to-
the market for public bonds If all property were
equtaby taxed and all exemptions eliminated it would lower
the rate by equaizing taxation 1t is high time all tax
exemptions were abolished

of leaving the faithful horse until
she could return in the fall to re-
sumo her work in the Arlington
school. After shipping her bag
gage to Salem the plucky teacher
and her pet started on the long
journey over the mountains to her
Marion county home, which was
reached safely after four days

Miss. Marthaler reached her des-
tination without the slightest diff
ficulty. She met many people
during the four days journey and
in all cases was greeted with cour-
tesy.
This would have been journey
of little importance so, or even 20
years ago when horseback was the
only means of travel over the
mountain trail, but today, to the
average modern tourist, it would
indeed be a tedious trip. The
journey can, of course, be made
quicker, and easier by means of
the modern machine, but it would
be without that companionship
which this eastern Oregon teacher
enjoys.

''If hat baby of ours is boy,

be in business with me. l don't
believe it's good for the father OF
the boy either. The father never
realizes that the boy has grown uI
and has matured opinions. A ia
ther takes all his sons enthusiasm
for snap judgments, and the boy,
of course, realizes that the world
has moved a long way since Dad
was his age. Consequently it seems
to me that Hal. Jr., should go into
some entirely different business.
"Alix, really am so happy that
we are going TO be by ourselves. l

l will be with you as soon as you

To the Editor of the Trbine:
Slr.---For the information OF
Syracuse Girl" who inquiries in
this mornings Tribune why New
York girls don't keep the seams OF
their stockings straight, here's the
answer. So far as New York girls
are concerned, the corset, with its
appended garters, has gone where
the woodbine twineth, along with
the hustle, starched pettlcoats and
fleece-llned underwear. Lacking
these former oorset-attaehed gar
ter supports, the girls have dis
covered that a stocking win stay
up If properly rolled down from
the top. II isn't easy to explain
the process without a diagram, but
the secret Of rolling it. is the first
giving 1t a proper twist around.
This brings the back seam of the
stocking around to the front.
