WOMEN'S INCOME TAXES

Few people need to he convinced
that women are getting on in the bus
mess world, but the reports of the in
come tax shed new light on how wei
they are getting on.
More than $4,000 women in Now
York state alone filed income tax 70
turns for 1919. OF these 1O1 900 were
unmarried, and out of this numbc,
over $4,000 were listed as supporting
heads Of families.
The occupations from which wo-
men reported particularly good in.
comes ranged through the theatrical
and motion picture professions. big
commercial positions, secretarvshins
of all kinds and important banking
jobs.
1t is true that New York is a b;o
state and a densely populated one
and that New York city offers es-
pecially good opportunities to the in
teillgent woman. But for all that
the returns from this one state are
but small percentage of those of the
entire country from women who arc
making incomes large enough to be
taxed and supporting families upon
these incomes.
The Importance of women in th,
business world and as heads of fam
lilies assumes new aspect whom
these figures are considered and
should receive a new respect. AS for
any antediluvian idea that the Amer.
ican business woman can be either
neglected or ignored-here is the
answer.

CUTTING THE COTTON CROP.

No legitimate objections can be Of
fered to the widespread movement in
the south for curtailing the cottor
acreage this year. The situation is
quite different from what it was in
some previous years when that pol
icy was urged. There is now no
such urgent need Of cotton as existed
Turing the war and Immediately after
ward. The world market appears to
oe glutted with the staple.
There is almost certain to be enough.
surplus left to suffice for next year..
needs no matter how little Is raise<.
this year In the American cotton belt.
The total carry-over in this country
rom the crops of last year and the
ear before. Is estimated at 100000
bales. A normal years production :;
100000 bales. Thus. even if the
cotton growers generally follow me
Georgia plan. and plant only hall
their usual acreage, there Is likely &c
be plenty unless the consumption rat,
should increase suddenly and un-
expectedly, and the curtaiment Is no.
likely to cause intolerably high price.
to manufacturers and consumers.
1t is to be taken for granted, hu,y.
ever. that IL half the cotton acrea",
Is withdrawn from cotton culture
1t will be devoted to other crops. Thi.
is the most legitimate and praise
worthy phase of the plan. When cot
ton-growers raise less cotton merel,
n order to force up the price, they
are the only ones who benefit, ant
| even they are not always sure of the
benefit. When they make the cur
;ailment of one crop part of genera
ystem of crop variation, they benefit
themselves and everybody else.
1t will mean much for the pros.
Jerity and economic independence o.
he south, and much also for the bal
| anced prosperity Of the nation as
| whole. IL the cotton belt quits it's in
tensivc one-crop policy and raises
moro corn, sugar. hogs, cattle, vegc
tables and poultry. a good start
| along that line is to be welcomed
| whatever the incentive.
