GERMAN FARMERS
FIGHT INCOME TAX

When the German Nationalist
deputies In the Reichstag voted
against the governments new taxa
tion measure this month in a vain
effort to keep Chancellor wirth's
program from becoming q law they
faithfully reflected the anti-tax
sentiments. Of the big agrarians,
who. according to items found In
the German press. are determined
to resort to sabotage Of all the tax
laws in order to foil the govern
ment's atte npt to get q material
part of its reparation expenses
from the Junkers who have profited
immensely by the rise In the cost
of living which is depressing the
Industrial workers Of the republic.
Writing IN the Berlin vorwarts OF
March Z. a corresp6ndent IN East
Prussia tells how the tax ofiicers
there have just completed the In
come tax rolls after two years
work and how. in order to speed up
collections and avoid going over the
books OF all the land owners, they
have arranged to average the yearly
income Of the estates at from 200
to 800 marks tabout 20 to 30 cents
at present exchange ratesy per
"morgen". (about two-thirds Of an
acre). Then he continues: -
This income IL an extraordinarily
low estimate when we remember
that 'morgen' of potato land
brings in about 5000 marks. Never
the1ess. It means In the case OF an
estate Of 10000 'morEen' an annual
Income Of from 3.000. 900 to 3.oo0.0 .0oo
marks. and an income tax OF from
1000. 900 to f.so0.00u marks. Conse-
sauently. there h great indignation
among the aEraria4s They have
all fled protests and Ndemanded tKat
they be relieved from paying the
tax until the protests are settled.
That means delay Of at least three
years in collecting the taxes. and II
Is said that the provincial treasury
IL inclined 20 grant this request.
The big agrarIans declared that
they would do the same thing with
all the tax laws. in Berlin the
people might decree what pleased
them. they (the sgrariaps) would
not pay the taxes OF subscribe 10
the compulsory loans They wsat
to sabotage the whole staxetion .sys-
tenn that they hate. and conss-
quently they want TO make 20 much
work for the treasury oficers that
the latter don't kno~ which way to
turn. A

A Man Of Spirit.
To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
The wilson -Tumulty episode may
have some significance In future
politics. Who knows? At least
tho American people are being
awakened to many things.
Now. we have with us more
business in government" Is IT good
policy. Well. he shall see.
As an after-war measure, per-
haps the rich men of the country
can bring US prosperity through
public office. At least. we. the
American people, believe that these
high honors to multi -millionaires
and other lesser lights will afford
these gentlemen a chance to grease
the wheels and start the machin-
cry OF putting Americans back to
work.
II .millionaires can be of more
service to their country in times
like these then who should object
to . millionaire Senator, or Repre-
sentative? On the other hand. II
this great body of men picked
from the Industrial East shall fail
US. then surely in 1924 let us go
back to old Virginia and get a
Chief that will fight for his own
people without the slogan Of
More business in government"
I would say to these gentlemen
in office at present time that hun
dreds OF thousands Of Americans
are waiting to see what they are
going to accomplish and they are
weighing carefully the wholesale
discharge of government workers.
especially call attention to the
vital Issue of immigration. The
American people are sick to death
of this whole rotten situation.
which is nothing more or less than
farce. We had big fight in this
country sixty years ago over an
issue Of far less Importance. Thou
sands of columns have been writ
ten regarding the closing of the
doors on the aliens, still our Con-
gressmen are stone deaf; they con-
tinue to fiirt with a dangerous sit
uation. Alright, gentlemen, I want
to assure you now that 5000. 900
men will oppose the further influx
Of II Of i per cent foreigners to
these shores And Furthermore,
can assure you that 100 per cent
Americans are seeing red today be-
cause their wishes are being dis
regarded, and unless this immigra-
tion thing is stopped there are
those who are thoroughly able to
expose the entire rottenness Of IL
all and the men supporting It,
Hundreds Of Thousands of 100 per
cent Americans are taking their
medicine. They seek work but
cannot get 1t. Is It so with the
aliens already on our shores?
The American people are willing
to 60 hungry, many Of them do not
complain at the conditions that
confront them. but these same men
will never submit to being showed

1t was learned at the inquest
that after skipping with her

A strong wind resulted in the
