TAXATION PROBLEMS

The problems incident to the tax
alton powers of the government
are extremely complicated, and
thus far unsolved by our federal
state and local authorities. From
time inrnemorial they have been
almost the chief source Of friction
between the people and the SOW
ereignty. The French Revolution,
which marked an epoch in the at
fairs OF men. grew out OF CEN
turtles Of taxation by the kings and
feudal aristocracy. The funda-
mental aversion on the part OF the
English colonists to taxation with
out representation, led to the
American Revolution. The an
archists and bolShevists of Russia
have fed the fires OF popular dis
content for century. at least, by
segregating and emphasizing the
glaring injustice OF the nlultliar-
ious tax systems fastened upon the
helpless serf.
1.-The power to tax is the power
to Destroy" said Chief Justice
Marshall, and this is an adequate
explanation of the jealousy of the
masses in its exercise. Dozens OF
textbooks by learned professors
have been written to lie unread on
dusty shelves. The politician has
invariably found the theme I'M
surpassed in arousing the interest
of All apathetic constituency, and
denlagoguery still flourishes by
al indiscriminatc criticism OF al!
taxation, whether fair or not. The
doctors themselves do not agree.
Probably no two OF them think
alike. Once in a while a powerful
mind becomes aroused on the sub
ject. and we have a Henry George
who dreams OF a universal panacea
that shall remedy all the Ills OF
government.
We arc still at work on tax
methods. and the present session
OF Congress has no more difficult
task before it than a wise system
OF taxation that shall be equitable
tor all, the rich and the poor, the
lesser and the greater.
Percy H. Johnston, president OF
the Chemical National Bank has
written al article for the january
Forum, on taxation. Which he Ell
titles, The Coniiscation OF
Wealth. He uttcrs some pro-
found truths in his argument, and
his ability and reputation as the
: head OF one OF the countrv's lead
ing financial institutions certainly
entities him to respectful hear
ing. He closes by saying: 1T is
futile to discuss details when the
fault is fundamental. Under uni
versal and equal suffrage the
temptation is to produce legisla-
ton agreeable to that class which
can muster the largest numerical
strength. The function OF Con
gress is to inspire rather than to
reflect the thought OF its con-
stituenoy. However, il Congress
is resolved to become a mirror. i;
behooves those OF us who have
spent years i'll the study OF eco
nolnic problems to disseminate the

THE senate of the United States
l. passed the bill for refunding the for
eign debt into securities maturing in
not more than % years. The vote
was 80 to 25, three Republicans
Borah, La Toilette and NOrris-join-
ing the Democratic opposition. The
measure is virtually as the administra-
ton recommended, though it was said
President Harding didn't like some
of its provisions. Senator Simmons
of North Carolina offered an amend
ment providing for the use of the in
terest ON the allied loans to pay a
soldiers bonus, and Senator Jones of
New Mexico offered another providing
for the payment of the bonus directly
out of the treasury. Both were de-
feated, Senator McCumber stating
a bill was now being prepared that
would give adjusted compensation to
the former service men. Senator
Borah denounced the bill as a scheme
whose ultimate purpose was the can
collation. of the entire foreign debt.
DRESIDENT Harding and Senator
l. Kenyon together furnished the coun-
try with a great surprise last week.
The President nominated the Iowa
statesman to be judge Of the United
States Circuit court, Eighth circuit, and
Mr.. Kenyon at once announced his ac-
ceptanee. The senate was astonished,
but did not hesitate to confirm the
nomination. Democratic leaders ex-
pressed the belief that the President

In completing a wonderful days
work, the conference gave its approval
to resolutions relating to China, to be
embodied in treaties, including decla-
ration Of the open door, publication
of existing treaties, agreements and
commitments with China, radio estab-
lishments in China, Chinese railways,
withdrawal of foreign postoffices, with
drawal of foreign troops from chi
nese territory, and reduction of Chl-

The question of reducing their land
forces by one-half was presented to
the governments of two nations. BY
one it was rejected, and the same ac-
ton is expected in the other case. To
the central executive committee OF
the Russian soviet government, Lenin
proposed that the Russian army be
cut in half, with a view to meeting
the wishes of the United States. Leon
Trotzky spoke in opposition and the
COMMITTEES rejected the plan. In the.
Japanese diet the Kokuminto party
brought forward the same PROPOSE
ton. The war office opposed it, hav-
ing a plan of its own which contem-
plates reductions in personnel and the
strengthening of ornaments and equip
ment. The minister of war says the
idea of halving the army is prepos-
ferrous in view of the fact that the
Russian army is still a million strong
and can be transported easily with
the restoration of the Trans-Siberian
railway. 1t was considered that
political reasons would prevent the
adoption Of the Kokuminto resOlu-
ton.

WITH the exception of the United

The French government has announced
that it will be represented, because
it feels itself bound by the action
of former Premier BRAND at the
Cannes meeting of the supreme u
Gil. Premier Poincare is devoting
much attention to the German repara-
tons problem and has asked the other
allied governments to state their views
as to the procedure that should be
adopted in regard to the latest pro-
posals made by Germany. He init
mates that France prefers to leave
the whole matter in the hands of the
