u. S. MEAT INSPECTION BEING

tries. The subject of the film is the

Quoted by the United States depart

every piece of meat which passes in

REALLY CONFER AT
CONFERENCES

The conference of republicans at
the White House was the occasion for
general expression of opinion on every
important issue of national affairs. 1t
was not a bringing together of q num-
Der of experienced public men to lis
ten to a felicitating address by Mr..
Harding. The purpose of the White
House was to have a matching of
views-not simply a me-tooing by the
guests of all that the host said.
Democratic leaders who watch the
progress of republican administra-
ton of the country's interests cannot
fail to note the sharp contrast be-
tween present ways of doing things at
the White House and the methods en-
ployed under the preceding rule. Then,
| the democrat who insisted on having
opinions of his own was made to un-
| derstand that he could not find a well
come from his president. Today it is
| the earnest desire of Mr.. Harding to
learn the views of all his party's as
sociates-of all in anywise responsible
for the carrying on of government.
As the Times has remarked before,
this latter method may not be pro-
ductive of absolutely ideal govern
ment. The wisest of men err, and per
feet rule can come only when mistake:
are impossible. But there is no more
question as to the superiority of thu

free income of from three to five per
cent prevents its being invested in
industries, commerce, public utilities
and other enterprises, the income
from which is taxed.
4 1t is drying up the natural and
legitimate sources of federal revenue
and compelling the Congress to de-
wise other forms of taxation, which
are irritating, to say the least, and
odious and burdensome in many in
stances.
It is inevitable that if the issuance
of taxfree securities by states, coun-
ties and municipalities continues the
congress must begin to levy taxes up
on occupations and upon the con-
sumption of necessities, such as a tax
on coffee, sugar and salt, in order to
obtain enough revenue to meet the
legitimate requirements of the Unit
ed States government.
Data presented to the House com
mittee by treasury officials and tai
experts showed that even under pres.

TAX EXEMPTION IS
BAD FOR INDUSTRY

Washington, Feb. 21.-Hearings be-
fore the house ways and means COM
mittee on the constitutional amend
ment proposed by Representative Nc
Fadden to make state and municipal
bonds subject to taxation have closed.
The hearings were attended by farm
ers, bankers, labor representatives,
representatives of public utilities,
treasury officials and others. 1t ap-
reared to be almost the unanimous
opinion that future issues of such Sc
curities must be subject to taxation.
Otherwise all federal sources of rev
gnue will dry w, business and indus
Try will suffer acuteIy and practically
the entire burden of public taxation
viii be shifted to incomes from labor
and to real estate.
Conservative estimates place the
amount of outstanding tax exempt Sc
e~urities at SIG, 700, 900 900. Many re
liable authorities say the amount il
double this. New tax exempt secur
tiles in the sum of Si,00O,OO0 were is
sued in 1921.
The evils of tax exempt securitie
issued by states, counties and munich
palities are many. They may b.
briefly set forth as follows:
1. The exemption of such propert
from taxation shifts the burden of a
taxation to real estate and to income
from other sources, mostly incom
from labor.

By direction of Secretary of War
Weeks there will be another cut in
the force of civilian employees of the

$40 employees are to be dropped. The
reduction includes 400 employees in

GERMAN INDUSTRIES RUSHED

Trade reports issued by the Ger
man government show that for the
first time since 1918 German exports
are in excess of German imports. The
reports show that German industries
are working at capacity in an effort
to keep up with the orders from for
eign countries. The heaviest exports
were in leather goods, paper, pulp
and manufactures thereof, pottery
machinery and electrical products.
