the country needs is a speeding up of
industry. Such speeding up is an i'm.
possibility if capital is hectored and
hindered and embarrassed. The masses
ought to recognize that fact, and the
democratic opponents Of the measure
do not pay them a compliment by max
ing a deliberate attempt to hoodwink
them. AS Chairman Fordney of the
house ways and committee,
pointed out, two democratic secretaries
of the treasury, Mr.. Glass and M.
Houston, recommended repeal of the
very taxes which the opposition holds
ought to remain.
The Harding administration should
be congratulated for what it is about
to do instead of being made to suffer
attacks and criticism. The way out
OF the economic difficulty has been
possible because Of the governments
determination to cut down it's own
expense. thus giving the people the
benefit OF the saving in the payment
OF lower a rates.

THE WAY TO MAKE MONEY

Charles Mix County Courier - More
hogs, cows and chickens on our farms
is what we need. The farmer who
to town twice a week and
brings in around a hundred dozen eggs
at a trip, doesn't worry much about
getting something 10 eat and wear and
a way to even find a few dollars for
other things. Then if this same farmer
finds time to milk a few extra good
cows, as well. he is still more free TO
laugh and enjoy life. even if he doesn't
drive a $4,000 auto and take in all the
doings for a hundred miles around.
The dairy cows made the farmers of
Wisconsin Independent, and she can do
so here if the farmer will Just give
her a chance 10 show what she can do.
If you don't like TO milk, buy a milk
ing machine and have a good sized
herd of cows, milk by electricity, and
the needed improvements won't cost
any more than some of the other
things you have spent your money for
in the last few years that haven't
brought you in a steady income.

WEEKLY CROP REPORT

During the past week, the conditions
for threshing have again been favor
able. There is apparently consider
able dissatisfaction among the farmers
at the present prices. For this reason,
many of them are stacking their wheat
and will thresh ii later. Others are
hauling wheat direct from the ma.
chimes 10 the elevators. They are
storing this for a short time at least,
and are not selling very freely.
The full extent Of heat damage TO
wheat is showing in the threshing
returns. Many fields of wheat and
durum that looked very good, are
yielding lighter than predicted. In the
southern territory where barley and
oats are the main crops, the receipts
have fallen off considerably, owing to
the recent decline in prices. We have
reports that farmers, who last year
hauled their grain early to the eleva
tors, are now holding quite a large
percentage on their farms.
Special inquiry regarding the fax
crop shows a considerable portion of
it has not been cut. Very few thresh-
ing returns are reported, but one point
in southern Montana shows 6 bushels
to the acre: central North Dakota,

TAX EXEMPT SECURITIES

The vast amount of tax exempt Sc
curities in the last three years and
seemingly continuing TO be issued in
a never ending flood, brings up
squarely before congress the ques,
ton of what to do in order to pre-.
vent the escape from all federal
taxation Of hundreds Of millions of
dollars of income. The tax exempt
security is not one which tends to a
lessening of taxation on the man Of
small income, but is of inestimable
benefit in reducing the taxation of
the man of large income. In fact,
the vast food of these tax exempt
securities has, in the final analysis,
increased the taxes Of the man of
moderate income. There are already
in existence billions Of dollars OF tax
exempt securities, including state and
municipal bonds. farm loan bonds,
and, under certain limitations, Lib
erty bonds and treasury certificates,
the tax exempt features Of which
under court decision cannot be elimi-
mated, but 1t is possible however to
prevent, in time, the issuance of any
more securities Of this character by
amendment to the federal constitu'
ton, just as the possibility of a fed
eral income tax law was brought
about. Public sentiment appears to
be consolidating in favor of such pro-
cedure. Senator Smoot already has
a bill TO provide for the submission
of a constitutional amendment, while
Senator Kenyon has a similar bill.
The Investment Bankers Association
Of American favors the submission of
the proposal and the American Farm
Bureau Federation has included this
In its program. Representative Nc
Fadden of Pennsylvania, chairman of
the house committee on banking and
currency, is also strongly in favor OF
the idea.

difficulty brings a feeling Of much
satisfaction. II is certain that Presi-
dent Harding and his advisers, to.
gether with the leaders of the two
houses of congress, will be given
proper credit for what they are about
to accomplish.
IT Is observed that, already, polit-
ical opponents of the administration
are trying to pick flaws in the tenta-
tive tax bill, insisting that it is a
rich mans measure. Unfortunately
for them, they were forced TO admit
that the reduction actually was a fact,
for figures do not lie, but they insist
that the people, the masses, are be-
ing imposed upon. Their branding OF
the proposed measure as class legis-
lation need not cause annoyance to
the supporters of the administration,
who will be more impressed by tangi-
BILE results than annoyed by political
criticism. Taking the main objection,
the charge that ii is a rich mans bill,
n finds that this Is based upon the
proposal that the excess profits, high
surtax and luxury taxes be repealed.
Only on three counts can the demo.
Gratis build their sweeping Indictment;
whereas the socalled common people.
whom the critics would assume to
champion, are directly benefited by
eight different provisions, and by some
of them exclusively. Heads of fam
lilies who arm not in excess of $4,000
are to be exempted $4,000 instead Of
$4,000, and with all others who pay
income taxes, will be exempted $4OO
additional for every dependent. The
repeal OF the transportation, life in.
surance, beverage, candy, sporting
goods and furs taxes surely will help
the masses more than it will aid the
classes. II seems that the democrats
are straining at a gnat.
The Journal would find it hard to
understand just why congress and the
administration should be expected tC
devote all their attention to a single
class. The rich, the moderately we'll
to do and the poor are all citizens
alike. 1t would be just as unfair TO
put the heavier part of the burden
upon n class as upon another. The
legislators framing the tax bill are
not doing that, but, instead, are hold
ing themselves to a plan of proper
distribution. Proportions have not
been forgotten nor overlooked. All
the people have been considered in
the tax revision. As to the so-called
rich men who are pointed out by the
administrations opponents as profit.
ing more than the common people. il
appears both just and wise that they
should be given every encouragement
by congress and the government that
is possible. Surely at this time the
country needs its rich men in the
process Of reconstruction. Repeal of
the taxes that discouraged them can
be counted upon to have the opposite
effect of encouraging capital. What

congress has found a way to reduce
the tax bill by about $1,000, 000, 900, for

Two very worthy organizations are
combined in putting on the celebration
which is scheduled for next Tuesday,
the American Legion and the Boys
and Girls Livestock clubs. Both or
CARNATIONS have done and are doing
a great service to the community and
the nation. Both are composed of
fighters. Both have received many
disappointments and discouragements
but they are not to be deferred. When
the county commissioners were unable
to help the Boys and Girls Pig Clubs
to put on a stock show to raise money
to 60 to the state fair. the boys and
girls simply went ahead and got the
Legion boys to help them raise the
money. The boys and girls are putting
in real honest work toward lettering
the breeds of hogs and sheep and rails
ing the farming standards Of the county
through their influence, deserve far
more credit and encouragement than
they have been receiving. The fun of
raising pigs may be considered suf1-
cient reward for these boys and girls
by some people, but we think that they
deserve more than that. The Ame-i-
a Legion of Bookings has made
many attempts to earn money and to
take a part in community service.
They have never yet succeeded in
making money on any of their enter
tainment ventures but have always
succeeded in spending a lot on purely
community affairs. They have spent
several thousand dollars in Brookings
the large part of which has been
raised by the ive-dollar annual dues
assessed each member. Both organ.
izations feel a little discouraged but
let the community show that they are
with them and give them the best en-
~couragement we know how to give.

Mourning Dove Migratory Bird.

The mourning dove, known In some
localities as the Carolina or turtle dove,
is Il migratory bird coming within the
protection afforded by the migratory
bird treaty and the act of congress to
give it effect, although individuals OF
the species remain within the borders
of certain states the entire year. This
decision was rendered in the case of
the United States against Joseph Fl.
Lumpkin. brought to trial at Athens,
Ga, before Federal Judge s. H. Sib-
ley and jury.
The defendant, who was charged
with killing mourning doves during the
federal closed season, cOntended that
the birds which he had killed had not
migrated but had remained in Georgia
the entire year. and for this reason
were not covered by the federal statute.
The case. which attracted widespread
attention, was attended by prominent
attorneys of Georgia.

fOrmity in an infant child. He sent

operation was a success and the money
sent was sufficient to pay the surgeon
and also the hospital bin. The s. was
converted into 1,5n0 German marks.
The operation and hospital bill cost
200 marks.
The child, nine months old, was born
with club feet and the operation was

that similar operation would cost
approximately SIC, in this country.
The letter stated that the child would
probably not he abb to walk until four
or five years old.
