WASHINGTON NEWS LETTER

At the request Of the Equity Coop.
erative Exchange Congressman Geo
M. Young, second district, North Da-
kota, appeared before the House Com
mittee on Agriculture on Friday and
filed brief prepared by the Equity
Exchange in support of the Steiner
son bill.
The Stevenson bill, introduced by
Halvor Stevenson, ninth district,
Minnesota, is designed to prohibit and
prevent the habitual exclusion from
membership and the general discrimi-
nation now practiced by the great
grain exchanges against cooperative
associations engaged in the grain bus
mess.
The brief of the Equity Cooperative
Exchange recommended the passage
Of the Stevenson bill, and gave COM
plete history of it's fight against the
Chamber of Commerce, Minneapolis,
in which the Equity claims that the
Chamber had used unfair methods of
competition.
Congressman Young also added his
personal endorsement to the Steiner
son bill. He asserted that a former
Attorney General had admitted to him
that an investigation Of the Minneapo-

lis Chamber of Commerce had shown
that it had violated the Sherman Anti
trust law, and that the Attorney Cen
eral had promised him in writing to
bring action against it, which, how
ever, he later refused to do.
The President has not yet appointed
the directors of the War Finance Cor
poration, recently revived by the joint
resolution introduced by Senator Gron-
ma, chairman of the Senate Committee
on Agriculture. 1t is understood that

Ripping Rhymes
BY WALT MASON
TOO MUCH TALK

With all the news I keep in touch,
and I'm forever reading of delegates
who talk too much, whose tongues are
always speeding. And some are men
of high estate, and some obscure and
humble; and when they're called on
to crate, like busy bees they humble.
They see large, attentive crew, to
hear their spiel collected, and they tell
all they ever knew, and all they e'er
suspected. Warmed by grape juice or
lemon pop, they set the language flow
ing they can't remember when to
stop. and don't know where they're
going. And when the CHASTITY morn
ing breaks they get the daily papers,
and read, with many piebald aches,
the story of their capers. When they
behold their words in print, they
know they left their bases, and sweat,
of deep magenta tint, rolls down their
furrowel faces. And then in cold des-
pair they rise, and frame excuses neat
ly: "The blamed reporters, blank
their eyes, misquoted us completely"
But none believes this tawdry tosh,
none likes the whining groaner, and
stale excuses will not wash when one
has pulled boner. Man would such
dire disaster dodge if he would can
the spelling, and spend the long hours
in his lodge, and knock flies off the
ceiling.

Iapan's Reluctance

Japan's reluctant and rather ungracious ac-
ceptance of President Harding's invitation to the
disarmament conference may change into a
wiolehearted participation later. Japan cannot
afford to hold aloof from a discussion of the far
eastern question or try to dictate arbitrarily
the program of the conference
The Japanese government may be trying a
diplomatic bluff in saying that it will oppose
only consideration of problems such as are of
sole concern to certain particular powers or such
matters as may be regarded as accomplished
facts" It probably has been advised of the fu-
tity of trying to limit the scope of the discus
sion, and will enter into the conference with an
open mind.
No government will have the right of dictat-
ing the program, and Japan will have as much to
say about the topics to be discussed as any other
nation. If the zap question, the evacuation of
Shantung, and occupation of Siberia by Japan
csc soldiers are deemed important enough to be
included in the discussion by the other partici-
pants Japan will find itself in peculiar position,
if it decides to Withdraw.
For instance, the United States and Great
Britain in that eventuality might decide on d
policy regarding the Pacific, and Japan would
find herself splendidly isolated.
Agreement on the far eastern question is alb
soutey necessary for discussion of disarma-
ment, and Japan must bow to the inevitable.

Federal Tax on Automobiles

Our national legislators are perturbed and
uneasy about the reception which their proposal
to place federal tax on automobiles is receiving
from citizens generally. The public feels that
the proposed taxation is clumsy effort to raise
funds for federal purposes.
The argument that the tax is justified be-
cause the government is aiding in highway con-
struction carries little weight with it, for the
states are forced to raise money for the same
purpose in order that they may participate in
the distribution of the federal highway funds.
Why pick out the automobile? Any vehicle
that uses the road derives a benefit from its
presence. If the automobile is to be taxed be-
cause federal money goes into road construction,
why not tax the two-horse dray that uses the
same highway, or the interurban car whose
tracks are laid on its side? The automobile isn't
the only vehicle transporting loads of merchan-
disc and produce, or carrying passengers on the
highways. Other vehicles are just as amenable
to federal tax, on this theory, as is the motor
car.
If automobiles and trucks are to be taxed, all
forms of vehicles must be included in the taxa
ton system to avoid the justifiable charge that
discrimination has been used in singing out the
one form of transportation using the highways.
