1t is much easier TO field a ground
or fly ball than il is to learn to hit
or to pitch. Hitters and pitchers, to q
certain extent, must be born. 1t is
possible to make a fielder although, of
course the best fielders are those who
have natural talent. In any event good
fielders are numerous while good hit
ters and good pitchers are rare.
Fielding depends first of all upon
the baseball instinct for getting a
ssgood start. Then comes a good
pair of hands Glands that never drop
a bah once laid hold of and good
throwing arm.
We must assume that our students
can run and have good arms.

Judgment Reversed
by Supreme Court
in Suit On Tractor

Helena. Oct. 17.-(By The Associ-
ated Press. Order of the district
court in Fergus county giving w. II.
V. Richards $500 damages from the
Aultman & Taylor Machinery company
was reversed by the supreme court
Monday afternoon and the case re-
manded to the lower court for %retrial.
Richards and a Mr.. Engler bought
a tractor from the Aultman & Taylor
Machinery company in August. 1917.
The Grass Range Mercantile company
paid the Aultman & Taylor Machinery
company $500 and gave a note for So
300. Richards and Englar agreed to
pay the Grass Range Mercantile COM
pany $500 and gave n chattel mort
gage on the tractor. They had some
difficulty in operating the engine and
an expert twice was sen from Lew
istown, who operated it and plowed
90 acres on Richards farm.
Richards, asserting Englar had as
signed his interest in the tractor to
him. sued for $500. The Aultman
& Taylor Machinery company denied
the sale to the partners and alleged
it's sale was to the Grass Range Mer-
camille company. The jury in the low
err court gave Richards $4,000 dam
ages and the Aultman & Taylor Ma
chinery company appealed.

THE SURPLUS

4 GOOD many big corporations
- have been carrying a surplus
account far larger than their CAPT
tai stock. The Standard Oil Com
pany Of New Jersey, the original
parent company of the thirty-three
Standard Oil companies which now
exist, has just announced a 400 per
cent stock dividend. Other Stan
dard Oil companies have also made
large dividends. There has been
quite an epidemic of these stock
dividends, since the supreme court
decision that as distribution OF as
sets instead of profit earnings they
are not subject to income surtaxes
as are cash dividends. There is
another reason for the movement,
however. Uncle Sam needs more
money, and congress wants TO
spend more money rather than to
practice economy. Under these cir
cumstances they are frantically
searching everywhere for new tax
es. In the last congress there was
considerable talk of putting a new
and special tax on all surplus cap
ital. Surplus capital" sounds rich.
Of course it now pays taxes on all
its earnings of profits just as nom
inal capital does. But in the public
mind the word surplus sounds much
like excess profits" and a tai on
surplus capital has a reasonable
sound. The Springfield Republican
says:
"a Wall street report from
Washington that certain leaders are
framing a bill for a l2H per cent
tax on corporate SURPRISES was re-
sponsible on Monday for an abrupt
rise in the stocks of various COM
panies which made large profits
during the war period, but which
have made only limited distribution
to stockholders. The report should
probably be received, as yet, with
some caution. A similar proposal
was made early in 1920, but was
abandoned before it had got far. II
was then pointed out that undi-
vided surplus did not mean CAPT
tai not usefully employed and ii
was argued that a heavy special
tax upon it was open to serious OBJ
iections and would create many
difficulties. Whether the disclosure,
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-10-18

since then, of the enormous undi-
vided profits of Henry Ford's COM
pany has made some people view
the idea with more favor, remains
to be developed. The outstanding
facts, however, are that the gov
eminent needs more money to run
on and that there are objections to
all forms of taxation"
Henry Ford's statement for June
30 last shows that while the capital
stock of his motor company is only
ST., 500, 0o0, the surplus capital OF
| the company amounts to more than
$3.50, 900, 900 additional capital.
| There is no real difference between
the two kinds of capital. Both are
invested in the business of making
cars and tractors, and both pay to
the government the same share of
profits earned. But if congress is
going to put a special tax of 12H
per cent on the surplus in this case,
which constitutes the big end of
the capital invested in the business,
then it would be good business pol
icy for Henry Ford to issue to him
self enough additional stock to alb
surb the surplus and convert 1t in
to nominal capital. This would OF
course be done in most cases before
or Immediately after such a law
was passed. There might be a few
corporations that for special rea-
sons were not able to do this or
were careless about it and got
caught. but the tax would not pro-
duce much evenu after the first
year.
Moreover 1t would be an in
EQUITABLE tax. There is no reason
why surplus capital used in a bust
ness should pay any more tax thai,
nominal capital. 1t is usually com
posed of undivided profits accumu-
lated over a long period of years
Even in the very few cases where
it is not used to produce more
profits for the corporation, it is
used as a reserve against accidents
or business reverses and a sort OF
insurance fund. In that case it is
generally invested in good bonds
that produce some for the
corporation. In the vast majority
of cases however it is used in pro.
duction of the same kind that en-
cages the normal capital of the
corporation.

pudiated it before election. 1t. is
the promise on which he secured
votes. IF it has no weight or bind
ing force with him he is open to
the charge of obtaining votes on
false pretenses. The same logic
applies TO party obligation. 1t is
one of the we'll understood con
ditions of a party nomination and
election that the candidate will sup
port the party which nominated
him and the principles of the party
if he be elected. Unless he has
made it clear before his nomination
and election that he will not do SO,
an element of cheating and fraud
enters into his election. Outside
the party platform principles on
which he was elected a senator or
governor or other representative
of the voters is expected to ex-
ercise his own judgment. He has
ever a wide latitude given him in
the application of his party plat
form principles. He may differ
with the majority of his party as
to the proper application of those
principles to some legislative mat
ter. Often that very thing happens
and no great criticism follows from
the constituents the politician rep
resents. But to boldly claim that
platforms and platform pledges
have no authority or meaning for
him after election is not a position
that will bring Senator Borah any
great amount of support among
the thinking voters of Idaho or
the nation.
It may be that party government
and even representative govern
ment in the United States will be
displaced in the future by pure
democracy, or mob rule, and all sta
tutes and governmental action will
be had through a referendum vote
of the people. That was the meth
Cd of government adopted and tried
out in the Greek republics two
thousand years ago. But at pres
ent we have representative govern
ment and party government. Until
some substitute for it shall be de-
vised and adopted, its break down
is to be deplored and anarchy is to
be feared. And as long as we have
the present system platform pledges
are a necessary part of it, so that
the voters may know what to ex-
pect from their representatives II
their votes elect them. The fail
ure of these representatives to
keep their party pledges is a breach
of trust that ought to be u tor
their removal from office, even IT
it is getting to be rather a COM
mon offense. The doctrine that
it is no ~offense at all but a virtuous
and praiseworthy thing to ignore
and ~repudiate party platform
pledges after election is a bad
thing and a dangerous thing, no mat,
ter what Senator Borah says to
the contrary.
