BOND TAXATION

Hearings before the Ways an;
Means committee Of the House o
Representatives on the constitutions
amendment to make state and mum
cipal bonds subject to taxation close;
today. The proceedings will be prl.'et
fol- distribution next week. Ea:l!
favorable action by the committee
is expected.
"Street car fares would be loweI
and electric light and gas cheaper i
public utilities were not compelled Il
compete with tax exempt secnrit:e:
in the money markets" said 2. II
Gadsder Of Philadelphia representing
utility associations. He stated thai
some companies had been obliged tt
pay II per, cent for money because
investors who had formerly purchased
their bonds now prefer five per cent
tax, exempt securities.
Tax experts. farmers, fnanciers, Z
labor representative and treasury Of
fetal: testified that the national trea-
sury states and tax payers would be
benefited by abolishincs. tax exemp-
tionS.
Congressman McFadden, author OF
the resolution, was the first of nearly
twenty witnesses who argued in fay
or Of the amendment. Secretary OF
the Treasury Mellon. and former AS
sistant Secretary Lc1iingwcll declared
that it would improve financial condi-
tons and reduce general taxation If
government securities were taxed. Mr.
Leffingwell said that tax exemption
inirairs government credit by reduc-
ing it's resources. He stated that the
government would be better off if it
had made all liberty loans taxable.
Doctor Edwin Seligman of Colum-
b;a University also insisted that the
National Government made serious
blunder in making Liberty Bonds cx-
ennpt from TAXATION. He demonstrat-
ed that the Federal Treasury is losing
S3D0,G00,000 a year by loss Of taxes
in excess of the gains received
through reduced interest rates. He
proved that the continued exemption
Of State and municipal bonds would
soon seriously impair ia taxing re-
sources Of states and the nation.
representative of the National AS
ISOLATION of Real Estate Board sa d
that home building in cities has been
restricted and rents raised because in
vestors buy tay-exempt securities in
stead of loaning on new buildings.
Expert statisticians showed that
the farm mortgages of the country
are now S8,000O00.000, and that the
Federal Land Banks are carrying
100000, only per cent of the
total amount. Ninety-five per cent of
the farmers are paying higher in
tercst rates and higher taxes because
capital is diverting to taX-eXempt Sc
curities. Annual issues of tax-cxcmpt
state and municipal bonds increased
five fold from S262,S1S,S44 in 1918 to
1,305,8 6S,916 in 1921, with prospects
of still further increases in 1922.
Called to Europe by cablegram
DR.. Charles J. Bullock, of Harvard
University was unable to meet an ar,
pointment with the committee, but he
telegraphed that he considered the
amendment relating to tax exemption
one of the most desirable and import
ant things before Congress-.

RICHMOND EXPOSITION

Richmond is to have a Nanu-
facturers Exposition during the
week beginning February 20.
Richmond is the South's greatest
industrial asset, producing 80
millions OF dollars in her manu-
features every year. The yearly
payroll Other plants is Is millions.
In several items she ranks first in
the whole United States.
If we are ever going to hold IN
the South the money that is made
in the South, we must begin by
buying ths. things that arc pro-
duced in the South.
The foregoing remarks and re-
Elections are taken from the lltera-
ture now being sent out by the
enterprising managers Of the eS-
position.
But how about Alexandria:
We are more favorably situated
nearer the high seas, nearer raw
material, nearer fuel supply. with
equal or better water and rail
transportation, and with just as
energetic and widc-awakc a cit
izenship.
What makes the difference:
How did Richmond do t. II we
can only find this out, we can do

Movie Cause Run on
Libraries Declare News
For Librarians

Movie-made readers are the latest
library development. The demand for
books whose stories have been made
into motion pictures is unprecedented,
according to Franklin f. Hooper, chief
of the circulation department of the
New York City library and Miss Lee
more St. John Power, chief of the
children's department.
Whenever a picture like The Three
Musketecrs," Sentimental Tommy
'.Dcception," "Huckelbarry Finn y
"The Four Horsemen of the Apocaly-
psc" or Miss Lulu Bett" is shown on
the screen the librarians report a
steady demand for the books from
which they were made. Many of the
people inquring for the books cannot
tell who the author is but they just
ask for it by the screen title and get
it.
Miss Power was asked if the movies
did not encourage the easy method OF
getting a story with the eye on the
screen insteadsef on the book, a much
more laborious process?
/ That may be the result in some
cases." she answered. "but from the
t God of inquiries about books which are
/ showing in the films l think the gen.
cral tendency is to encourage reading
! rather than TO substitute seeing the
motion picture for the book"
Mr.. Hooper believes that the motion
| picture is direct and favorable in
tiucnce on people who arc not in the
habit of coming to the library. 1t is
getting people in to the library who
never came before, he says.
The motion picture industry is not
nor can it be expected to be, an al.
truistic organization, although it has

MEYER. B. w. Huebsch. Inc.
Praise is due Dr. Brinckmeyer for
his presentation Of this much talked
IT man. SHINES is not an attractive
subject for biography, because there
is nothing likable about the man. Hc
has none of the qualities of friendship
or sympathy or understanding which
,ndaar men to the public or TO the in
1iv,hual. A great financier. a genius
in the business world, an all import
ant factor in politics, a figure to be
~eckoned with in the new Germany
Ill these things SHINES may be; but a
friend, never. There is not one single
rat in the man to arouse affection
n the biographer.
Probably the only serious error of
iud~nlcnt in the boz; is shown in
quoting Rethenau as antagonistic to
SHINES. The average American can
never know SHINES, except as a 81
uartic agency for storing up wealth
and power. But Americans can I'M
