The Individual Farmer

There is eastern syndicate in whose mailing

place and much of whose matter is excusatory of
conditions as they now with respect to the pack
ing and the grain marketing industries and resentful
OF legislation which would bring about changes in
those conditions.
1t has sent out warning statement to farmers
against the advancement of visionary agricultural
schemes that might to the disadvantage the
farmer" The statement is the more eagerly seized
upon by the syndicate because it comes from the
Kansas State Board of Agriculture
I'VE must not place too much reliance on any
remedies other than those developed by the farmers
themselves. Methods resulting from years of expert

Systematically. cannot be replaced in day or year
with something better.
"Self-styled economists, professional friends of
the farmer and propagandists have seized upon the
depression in agriculture a means of access to
and platform to expound widely different meth
DDS of rescuing the industry from the direful fate
which they profess to impending. Many have
been visionary, some vicious. In the avalanche of
panaceas cure-alls remedies that have descend

Now there is nothing in the foregoing which can
be criticized but the spirit in which it has been
adopted by the syndicate is open to criticism 1t is

A QUESTION of vsraeitx

Mr.. volstead and William G. Shepherd the maga-
zine writer, have locked horns over matter which
relates to prohibition only indirectly, curiously,
both for the enforcement OF prohibition. The
National Civil Service Reform League has been
dragged into the controversy
In of his articles on the subject OF prohibi-
enforcement, Mr. Shepherd quoted Mr. volstead
as saying in interview:
"The civil service commission sent over to us in
committee plan for putting all the agents under the
civil service. They wanted to blanket the whole thing
under the civil service Wouldn't that have been
awful? Think of that first batch of prohibition
forces sadded under the civil service system
that we could get rid of them. / fought
the civil service plan with all my might didn't
go through"
The civil service commission wrote to Mr. Vol
stead about it and he made the inquiry the occasion
for twenty minute speech in congress and has his
remarks incorporated in the Congressional Record In
the of his address he denied the interview
unauthorized, said that it was tissue Of fasehoods
and that Shepherd was against prohibition
The Civil Service Reform League then asked
Shepherd what he had to say about it, The latter
replied that the interview took place within the
hearing and in the presence OF a congressman, who
also newspaperman: that he took notes of
the words of Mr.. yostead with pencil and paper;
that he had written three articles for his magazine
the subject of prohibition enforcement and that
he gathering material for fourth
1t is one thing to deny interview and another
to deny it unauthorized. Many public in
free conversations with reporters let know that
their remarks not intended for publication and
go far to them that il the remarks
quoted they will be denied. So in that sense
what Mr.. Shepherd published about Mr.. Volstead
may have been unauthorized. But whether the
Shepherd statement true may be determined in
various first by appealing to the Outstanding
congressman. and next by inquiry whether Mr.. Vol
steads committee did receive such proposition
the civil service commission and whether Mr. Vol
stead did fight it. All that information would
to be easily available.
It a very natural thing for Mr.. Volstead to
say and criticism should attach him for saying
Almost every advocate of the enforcement of the
prohibition law would have taken his view against
putting the prohibition agents under civil service
And in view of the character of such large number
of the first prohibition agents appointed considering
the number OF them who sent to jail for con-
nyance with booteggers, the apprehension Mr.. Vol
stead is said have felt regarding the banketing
service under civil service rules was justified

The Governments Bad Guess

who will buy them. The showing of
the March Is tax installment means
that s200,0o0,000 in these certificates
must be sold between now and next
January.
The treasury in estimating the in
come for this year, took into consid-
GRAFTON the business depression, but
it seems it did not realize how far
short income had fallen. The prev
ious year the revenues. from these
taxes had amounted to $3,22S, ,137,~
900. This sum was practically cut in
two in making the estimates for 1922
but it seems the income of the coun-
try has been cut even more than that.
In 1920, the income and profit taxes
amounted to 1886, ,936, ,000, nearly
four billions. To visualize how much
the national income has dropped
since 1920, the boom year, contrast
this figure of 56,956,000 for 1920
taxes with $1,50Q, 900, 900, the revised
estimate for 1922.
Some Of the reduction can be ao-
counted for by relaxations in rates
but not much, as the principal relax
ations do not go into effect until
next year. The March Is, 1922 tax
installment of less than $400, ,000, 900
compares with a payment of SIPS
100000 on March 10, 1921. The March
Is payment in 1920 was over $1,000,
000, 600.
Usually the March Is payment,
being the first one of the four tax
installments, is the largest. Under
the income tax law, a taxpayer may
pay his entire tax for the year on
March Is, or may pay one quarter of
his annual tax on that Gate and the
5R,s, =, !
September Is, and December is re-
spectively. This year. however, so
many taxpayers upon figuring their
incomes discovered their total
amount of tax liability was so low
that they could afford to discharge
the entire obligation on March Is,
and have the job done with. There
was an unusually large number of
such full payments this year. Pos
sibly as much as a third of the year s
revised estimates viii fall substan-
TALLY below $780, 600 600.
This showing had the effect of
dulling and enthusiasm of many
members of Congress for the plan to
pay a soldier bonus and has in
creased the opposition of the Treas
ury to the plan 1t is declared that
with the Treasury in such poor con-
dition it is not feasible to add a
burden of two or three additional
billions for the soldiers There are,
of course. widely differing opinions
on this point many Congressman
and others declaring that no matter
how much the Nation has to borrow
the soldier bonus should be paid in
recognition of the conspicuous SER
vices of the soldiers in the war.
When the Governments income
falls below expectations and the
Treasury must resort TO borrowing,
still more taxes are being piled up
against the people. Interest must be
paid on the loans made to make up
the deficit Therefore, that interest
charge must be added to next years
expenditures. Just the additional
short term borrowing of $200,000.0 900
to make up the gap between this
years expenses and income, will cost
interest amounting to $4,000. .000--a
great fortune in itself. In other words
because taxes were 5000, ,000 600 short
this year. next year they must be
s20S, 900, 900 more.

it and they have found of the causes of the
hardness of their lot in conditions which they have
set out to 'rectify, notably through the American
Farm Bureau.
They are not attempting anything revolutionary.
They righting wrongs which it seems strange
should have been allowed to so long. They are
demanding reform of marketing conditions and
they bringing the reform about, in part by indi
vidual effort and in part by legislation And all this
is being accomplished by the farmers themselves and
by professional friends. Missionaries sef-styed
economists.
