CUT OF S1,600,000 IN
LUXURY TAX ALONE

Dubuque, Iowa-Reductio in
federal taxes, which are effective for
the current year, will save Iowa tax
payers the large sum of $9,233, 900,
according to special survey of the
cancellations and decreases in tax
rates provided by the revenue act
of 1921, completed yesterday by In
temal Revenue Collector Lars E.
Bladine.
The reduction in taxes for 1922 is
approximately as follows:
Income tax ,b33,OO
Transportation tax -..---.-~-. 100000
Sales and luxury tax ....-.... 100000
While the transportation, sales and
luxury tax cancellations become eff
fective Jan. of this year, the income
tax reduction covers 1921 as well as
1922, and thereafter.
Transportation Tax Huge
One of the really large items of
tax abolished under the new law was
the transportation tax. Inasmuch as
this tax was largely paid from the
headquarters of the railway systems
in other states it is impossible to es-
innate with any degree of certainty
just what this amounted to, but it
would not be surprising if the
amount paid by Iowa taxpayers to-
tailed several times the sum estimat-
ed.
OF the $2,633,000 income tax re-
duction, $2,352,000 is distributed on
approximately $4,000 returns, with
incomes of less than $4,000 and as
due to the increase of exemption
from $4,000 to $4,000 for a married
taxpayer or head of family, and
increased credit from 5000 to $500
for each dependent. The balance is
an estimated reduction for the year
1922 on incomes in excess of $4,000
due to decrease in surtaX rates.
The elimination of tax on sales,
excise and luxury efforts reduction
for the year 1922 of approximately
S1,600,000, which means decrease
affecting practically every taxpayes
| in the state. Decreased taxation
under the revenue law of 1921 affects
every person in the Iowa district who
travels, pays freight, sends an ex-
press package, buys Pullman berth,
takes a drink of soda water, or who
has a taxable income. In other
words, the relief afforded reaches
all classes.

The most serious difficulties that
cause war are not of the kind that
a court could settle. Still many
questions that cause friction could
go to this court and be adjusted. As
time goes on, nations will see more

Poor Men whistle; Rich Men Don't

The late United States Senator
Stephen B. Elkins of West Virginia
once said: Although money is a
great power and is never unfashion-
able, yet we must not fall into the
error of thinking that it brings hap
piness and every good thing in life.
Far from it.
Clever man once said to his son:
"John, when you chase the dollars,
all right; but look out my boy, when
the dollars chase you" The trouble,
worry, and anxiety will dwell with
you. After a certain point, wealth
becomes a burden, robs its owner of
ease and repose; yet | have observed
how eager and willing people are to
struggle along through life with the
burden Of wealth upon them.
Every rich men never whistle; poor

men always do. Bird songs are in
the heart of the poor man.
"This is we'll. 1t would not be
right that only the rich or moderate
ly rich should be happy. This would
not be fair adjustment of things.

compensation. Emerson, one of the
greatest Americans, make this plain
