The National Bureau Of Economic

BY group Of persons who had come
to realize the need for accurate and
scientific collation. of statistical infor-
nation as basis for intelligent solu-
ton of national problems. The direc-
tors Of the bureau are T. 8. Adams,
advisor to the Treasury department !;
John r. Commons. Of the University
Of Wisconsin; John P. Frey, editor Of
the International Molders' Journal ;
Edwin F. Gay, president of the New
York Evening Post Harry w. Ladder,
secretary Of the intercollegiate Social

rural institutions, University of Cali

It is rule Of the bureau that each

had incomes of 5000 or more, and
that this one per cent had IA per cent
Of the national income. Five per cent.
representing incomes above $500,
had 20 per cent Of the total. Ten per

Income receivers had incomes below
$1.75O. receiving about So per cent Of

Shares Of Labor and Capital.
In most Of the years since 1912, the
bureau finds that In the principal or
ganized Industries. wages and salaries
were about 20 per cent Of the total in
come; while capital Qncluding man
agement) received about 30 per cent,
out Of which were paid rent, interest
and profits; but these proportions va
ried materially with relative prosper
ity and depression. In 1916, for e1-
ample. the share Of capital increased
to about 35 per cent. with 65 per cent
to labor. while in 1919 capitals share
fell to about % per cent, while labor
got about IS. OF the total payments
to employees In the highly organized
industries. about 90 per cent goes to
the manual workers and clerical stafrs,
while 8 per cent goes to officials.
Share Of the Farmer.
The farmers, who during the past
decade have made up about 1e per
cent Of the total of gainfully employed.
had from II to 13 per cent OF the ma

1910 and 1915 inclusive; since 1917

ties such as education and rOad-build-
ing. produce only about half Of the na-
tionai income. The rest is due to the
efforts of small independent workera.
Income Tax Discrepaneiea
The report estimates that the num-
ber Of persons In 1918 having incomes
over 5000, was 5.3OO.OOO. and that
their total income was over % billion
dollars. Income tax returns. however.
showed only 2,0OS, 600 persons having
over 5000. and their total reported
income was less than IA billion dol
lars. This discrepancy Is due in part
to technical eyasions and straight lille
gal withholdIngs. but also In part to
the existence OF tax-exempt income.
What this means in terms Of the In
come. tax is that the government re-
ceived In 1913 about half billion dol
lars less than 1t would have. II all
persons receiving $1,000 had paid their
full amount.
Contribution Of Housewives.
The contribution of the 2O,OOO. 900
American housewives Is not included
by the bureau in the national income
because they are not paid In money.
But the report points out that II they
were paid at the lowest possible figure
(the average recompense Of personal
and domestic service) their addition to
the total national income would be
about one-third. or Is billions. On
that basis. the bureau gives the follow
ing conjectural figure'as to the huctua-
ton Of the housewives contribution
to the nationoal income since 1909:

"Disarm" Diplomats Too.

Germany has requested America
not to send an ambassador to her fol
some time to come because the gov.
eminent has searched the country
over and can find no man of the right
frame of mind who has sufficient
wealth to take care of the display re
quired of an ambassador ir Washing
ton. So each country for the near fu
ture will be represented by an officer
known as charge d'affairs. He will
do as much work as would an ambas
sador but will live on his salary.
This situation, of course, is caused
in large part by the rate Of exchange
for German marks as compared witt
our dollars, rich man in Germany
would soon be pauper here, and ou1
day laborer would be rich if he coulG
work here and spend his wages il
Germany.
We are also reminded, however, o.
another direction in which the nations
of the world could "disarm" with great
saving to tax payers. The vulgar
pomp and ceremony and society with
which we carry on relations between
nations has no excuse other than tha
our public are inclined to associate
wasting money on these things as evi
dence of quality.
The practice bars from office poor
men of ability who are by reason o
their poverty in closer touch with thu
needs of the people and puts int
these offices the title hunting, exploit
ing rich.
Before the war we had as represen
tatives in Europe chiefly those VIII,
had inherited packing house stock
steel trust stock, railroad bonds, O.
public domain grabbed by bribing leg
islatures. If we had had men Of abil
ity in Europe and had had a govern
ment comparatively free from such in
terests at home, the whole terribl,
war might have been averted. Thes'
interests actually wanted war il
Europe in the hope Of rich picking
so America was held off until the Hell
was let loose.

Towniey In Jail.

There is surprising lack of rejoicing
in the press over A. c. Townley being
in Jail. The Minneapolis tribune be.
walled the long time it took to en-
force the state sedition law In his
case, and that is about as strong as
the comment runs.
Governor Preus, the shrewd politi-
clan, is reported to be so. y that
Townley is in Jail but the pressure
brought to bear from unnamed sources
is too strong to resist. The condition
of the times make Townley in Jail
more dangerous to anti-farmer inter
ests than Townley free to hold meet
ings and organize.
The motive for the sentence, OF
course, is to reach that part of our
population which regards imprison-
ment as a proof of wrongdoing. Thus
in normal times would Townley be
sufficiently discredited to prevent him
from rallying majority. Even good
Christian overlook the fact that Je-
sus was sentenced to capital punish
ment with all the legal formalities of
the time, and yet He was the Sinless
Man. He was not guilty of sedition.
And the same sort of tragedy has been
going on in the world ever Stree.
In normal times people commonly
leave their martyrs in Jail or they fol
low hooting to the scaffold. But in
critical times when windjammers
place hunters, professional patriots
fail, they cast about for relief and find.
ing the prophets in Jail, and likely to
restore their liberty and put them in
the chief seats at the table.
The clever cliticians fear this re.
suit in Townleys case IS a result OF
their own exhibition of their gross in
competence in guarding the prosper
ity Of. the plain people. Hence the
lack of rejoicing that Townley is in
Jail. A desperate people may find his
jail sentence by the politicians the
lasting proof of loyalty to their inter
eStS.
Townley is writing a page in each
issue of the Leagues National Leader
and he may spring some things thai
will undo his now little pleased per
secutors.

IN THE WAKE
|. OF THE NEWS
The Disarmament Conference.


Secretary Hughes surprised the
world with his plan for cutting naval
strength announced at the opening OF
the conference on limitation Of arma-
ments. Delegates Of other nations an
nounced that they accepted the propo.
sition in. principle. an acceptance
which can mean anything, and we will
have to await the end Of the confer
ence to find out how far the principle
will influence results.
Our guess is that navies will be
greatly reduced, and we can rejoice
at this saving to tax payers. The past
war and tests since demonstrated
pretty conclusively that war ships
are not worth much. Other engines Of
war-the aeroplane, the submarine.
and poison gas-now have the front
rank.
Hence while saving us money now
uselessly spent for ships the diplo-
mats may easily lull US into false Sc
curity about war. That to our mind
is the great danger at present. The
agitation against war must keep up.
We must continue to assail the imper-
ialism which will produce war. We
must make the politicians realize that
promoting international good will is
necessary to gain our votes.
We could have saved some 5000. O0O,-
900 il the Hughes move had been made
8 months earlier We will save more
by not continuing to build. But these
savings are unimportant beside the Is
sue of removing war. Tho last war
cost our government over 30 billions
in direct expense.
