ENGLAND SETS EXAMPLE
IN SlMPllFtED INCOME TAX

Some day somebody of more than
average intelligence will get up in the
congress and propose a real simphfl-
cation of the complicated manner in
which income tax returns are now
made out and incomes are assessed.
The English have had long expert
ence with the income tax n they have
simplified it to a remarkable degree
so much so, in fact, that ordinarily the
figuring of the amount one must pay
is but the matter of a moment. But as
Lord Northciiffe once said, with great
er truth than poetry: No nation ever
learns anything from another nation.
Each nation must go through it's W
bitter experience and pay for it." He
made this remark just after returning
to England from America in 1917. We
had just entered the war and we had
said We were going to fight the war
according to our wi ideas and build
u own planes, our own engines, our
own guns, and everything.
This. however, is an income tax
story. not a war diatribe, although ii
is difficult for one to think of taxes
without thinking of the vast waste
OF following so many of our W war
ideas.
CHytdVu 1uto Tax
A cablegram from London announced
there is to be a reduction in the in
come taxes over there of one shilling
on the pound. There is the whole story
of British tax rate. 1t is based on
so many shillings in every pound. The
rate increases as the income mounts
until in some instances it has required
the taxpayers to turn over to the gov
eminent II out of every 20 shilGngs
earned.
Why not an American income tax
based on So many cents on the dollar
IF the man earning 10000 a year is
told he shall pay Is cents On the dol
lar. he has that tangible figure before
him all the time. And so it might range
up to where the incomes of S1,OOO,OoO
a year paid so cents on the dollar.
1t is a simple system, but we ap-
parently prefer the camouflage of four
per cent normal, plus s per cent
normal. plus surfaces, which no man
can estimate until he gets a table pre-
pared by the government sharks. Per
haps we don't want Il people to
know too wildly what they are ex-
pected to give up each year, or at any
rate we want to postpone the evil
realization of what is about to happen
until the unlucky day when the color
collector says, Come across

Charlestown, ". Va. April 30.-(By
The Associated Press.)-A treason
trial and an amateur baseball game
shared Saturday in interest with the
same man as central figure in both,
but although the game had the larger
attendance, ever the longest home run
could not produce the thrills of the
story in court.
Details Of marching through sections
of three counties. the Communicating
of a railroad train, a battle in which
a machine gun and unnumbered rifles
spat from West Virginia hills into
a valley where the enemy was in po-
sition, all flowed to the ears of jury,
court and spectators in the matter-of-
fact tones of Ed Reynolds, coal miner
and self-appointed leader of a band
that had these experiences. William
Blizzard, sub-district president of the
United Mine Workers, charged with
treason and now on trial, led a similar
band. the witness declared, which ac-
companied them until the two groups
took UP separate positions oil the bat.

The baseball game in the afternoon
drew the attention the court had in
the day and was between the team of

Even when his direct testimony had

charge of collecting money under false
pretenses, the witness did not make
any display of emotion but calmly gave
his story of collecting 5000 from a

make the collections.
His first testimony was OF A meet

Blizzard set out afoot for Racine,
each in command of about 800 men.
Arriving there that night, Reynolds

of the court was that he should pay

Don't Doubt
Your Beliefs

There is a Scotch proverb that runs:
doubt your doubts and believe your beliefs.
But don't believe your doubts, nor doubt your
beliefs"
That sounds sensible, don't it! And besides,
doubt has no place in the methods of any well
ordered mind. It was said of Mr.. Chauncey
Depew that his great success as president Of
the New York Central was because he never
hesitated. He always knew what he wanted
to do.
True it is that there is a type of small mind
that instinctively distrusts what it does not
understand. But men of this type are never
builders-of cities or anything else.
We are telling the people of Great Falls
every day what is being done at the Wood &
Stafford plant. Mr.. Dubois and Mr.. Wood and
Mr.. Stafford are at the plant, prepared to de-
montrate what is being accomplished there.
Every one knows that the greatest need of
Great Falls is manufacturing institutions
payrolls. The Wood & Stafford Company is one
such institution and is succeeding on a pro-
gram Of permanent growth.
Now, is it not right to expect the progressive
citizens of Great Falls to verify the state
ments we are making every day?
Tomorrow l shall tell you what the plant
will accomplish in May. Then ask Mr.. Dubois
how that result will be ACCOMPLISHED. He
knows.
