WHY SALES TAX WILD HIT
POR HARDER THAN RICH

Editor Perkins, of the Cigar Maxi

milton of the sales ak:
1.-The rich will be taxed only on
what they spend and nothing on
what they save. The poor will be
taxed on what they spend. which
means they will be taxed on all, for
they must spend all to exist
Millions Of dollars are spent by
proponents Of the sales tax scheme.
millions that can well be afforded
by the rich as a matter Of business,
for If the sales tax is substituted for
the excess profits tax or any In
crease in the income tax it will
mean more to them than any leg

that is seemingly very partial to the

No Open Shop in Building
Trades in Sister City,,

There is no "open shop in the
Superior building trades. Work in
the building industry was never more
plentiful there. Skilled workmen are
in great demand. Every job in town
is union from basement to gable,
except one. That is the story that
comes from across the bay by Du-
luth union men working in Superior.
According to w. J. Glasgow, dis
trict president Of the United Broth
erhood of Carpenters and Joiners for
the state of Wisconsin the demand
for building tradesmen is greater
than can be met by the unions. Mad
ison wants 200 carpenters, he claims.
In Waukegan, ILL.,, contractors are
bidding against each other for men,
offering carpenters $1.35 an hour
and bricklayers $780,
D. ]. Needhem, secretary Of the
Superior Building Trades council
was in Duluth Wednesday looking
for lathers and plasterers. "There is
not an idle building tradesman in
Superior" he said, land I cannot
get enough hosting engineers to fill
our jobs.'
Carl Friedman of Two Harbors,
owner of the Telegram building, is
making improvements amounting to
$4,000. Only union men are en-
ployed on that job.
