" no Opposes
Tax Reduction?

Secretary of the Treasury
Mellon seems to be a porcupine
Tor accuracy when it comes to
defending his tax reduction
figures. He leaves no point of at
tack. He answers his critics at
every turn, not with abuse, hot
air or evasion, but with plain
statements and figures which
even a school boy can under
stand.
The opposition to Mr.. Melons
tax reduction program comes not
from the people, but from the
professional politicians who con-
tlnue to harp along the old de-
magoglc lines of taxing wealth.
Mellon calmly shows that after
you have taxed wealth out of
existence, the burden of govern
ment falls with a double force
upon the small taxpayer who
has to make up losses which the
Investor who refuses to utilize
MS money in productive indus
ny, would under lower tax
ystem be paying.
If the politicians block the tax
eduction measure, they will
ave robbed the people of over
y300.000,000 for 1924.

A Non-Partisan Speech

President Coolidge is a Re
publican. He is "a candidate for
the Republican nomination this
year. His speech in this city
was heralded in advance as in
tended to figure largely In his
campaign Yet nowhere in il did
he strike d partisan note. 1T was.
of course, d political speech, but
it was non-partisan This Was
especially the case with the two
passages of it which arc mos
important and will be most
eagerly read-those dealing with
tax reduction and with corrup-
tion at Washington
Treating the latter subject at
the end OF his speech, the Presi-
dent gave to the country every
assurance which it could ask. Mr..
Coolidge feels with all his fel-
low-countrymen a depressing
sense of humiliation at the in
stances of gross betrayal of pub
lie trust that have been dis
closed. He also blazes at them
with righteous wrath. And he
reads his official duty to be ''im-
mediate, adequate, unshrinking
prosecution, criminal and civil,
to punish the guilty" To that he
pledges himself absolutely. Poll
tics and partisanship he rules
out with scorn. A Republican
himself, he will shield no man
simply because he is a Republi-
can; nor will he prosecute anyl

War Department Will Review Action Of Court Martial
By The Associated Press.

Manila, Aug. 22.-Thef verdict of guilty, with sentences of five rears with hard labor, found by a court martial which tried 2o4 Philippine scouts charged with joining mutiny, will be reviewed by the board of the Philippine department of the army and afterwards sent to the war de- partment at Washington for action.
 The place of confinement of the prisoners will be determined by the reviewing board. They may be i'm prisoned in the insular penitentiary ] here. or sent to a federal prison in the United States.
 The same court which tried the s09 prisoners charged with joining a mutiny, five being found not guilty, will be assembled some time next week for the purpose of trying the alleged ringleaders, who are charged with cauisng a mutiny. If the de- fendants exercise the right of chal- lenging the member court, it may be necessary to assemble an entire new court~martial.
 During last week several additional arrests were made on the more seri- ous charge of causing mutiny, the alleged ringleaders now numbering IF.

Says Revolution Is Only Cure for

 Foster referred to the present gov- ernment in Russia as an ideal work CTS government" declaring that "the soviet system is the next step in the social evolution of America"
 He characterized Senator La Fol- lette's presidential candidacy as "cat- ering to the small capitalists. the small business men, merchants and some farmers" and declared that when the workers become more powerful in this country La Toilette, Gompers and the small capitalists will rise with the big ! ca apitalists to sque1ch us." Referring to national defense day as mobilization day" Foster said 1t was another step toward another great war" He said there would continue to be wars as long as the workers do not get all that they produce, and 'so long as huge surpluses of the worlds products are piled up.'
 The speaker declared the govern ment 'is run by capitalists" and that the Coolidge and Davis campaigns are financed by Wall street.
 Ninety per cent of the funds used in their campaigns come from that source," he added.
 Foster said that while the other parties are advancing as the main is- sues of the campaign such things as the tariff, taxation and the world court, we are putting our finger on the source of trouble. That Is the cancer on society and we propose to remove that cancer by a surgical oper- ation and that operation will be so- cial revolution"
