OF our Dear One who loved as ali;

Beautiful memories he left behind.

view of enacting the best bill for the
most people.
thousands OF letters have reached
my office from persons who know no
more about the Mellon plan than did
Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves.
The democratic plan for reduc-
tion." continues Representative Tague.
'is a better plan for the man OF
modest income than any plan pro-
posed to date. 1t proposes to reduce
the amount of taxes the working man
Is required to pay. actually. and not
depending on vague possibilities. In
cases where the amount exempted
from taxation under the present law
| make IL two thousand dollars and
further reduce the tax on the amount
remaining after that deduction is
made. Under the Mellon plan the
taxes paid by the millionaire viii be
reduced to such an extent that no
appreciable reductions can be made
in the taxes paid by the man of
modest income.
For example. under the Mellon plan,
Secretary Mellon himself will save
about two million dollars in federal
taxes. In order that this withdrawal
from the revenue will not be notice
able. the taxes paid by men of modest
means cannot be reduced appreciably.
Until Representative Garner issued
the proposal of the democratic mem
bers of the committee on ways and
means utmost care had been exercised
to conceal from the public the saw
II ings which would be shown to per-
sons receiving incomes in excess of
$4,000 annually. The democratic plan
exposes that IL is this class of in
comes which will benefit the most
under the Mellon plan.
Under the democratic plan 1t is pro-
posed to repeal the nuisance taxes.
The Mellon plan proposes only the
repeal of the tax on admissions and
the tax on telegraph and telephone
messages.
"Of the thousands of letters l am
receiving daily, advocating the enact
ment Of a bill along the lines OF the
Mellon plan. none make a pretense OF
showing how much of the proposed
benefits OF tax reduction will be
passed on to the consuming public
For example, hundreds of manufac-
turers of woolens write in, heartily
indorsing the Mellon plan, but not
| one letter gives an estimate of the
reductions in the prices of woolens II
will be possible to make or how much
cheaper will be the price OF a suit OF
clothing. Manufa acturers of every
possible commodity acclaim the Mel
! Ion plan as a boon for tho American
people, yet do not show how the bene.
| fits will be passed on to the people
1t can only be assumed, consequently
| that these enthusiasts have g. visior
| OF increased profits and dividends
hence the enthusiasm"

RED CROSS ACTS
TO GUARD EMBLEM

A war on persons illegally using
the Red Cross name and emblem has

FORD SHOALS OFFER
DECLARED BEST YET
Farm Bureau Federation Says It Is
$4,000, 900 Better Than Power
Company Bid.
ANALYSES TWO. PROPOSALS
Claims One Would Serve, Other Ex-
ploit Public.

In a statement issued yesterday, the
American Farm Bureau Federation
declared Henry Ford's offer for Muscle
Shoals would net the government
$42.000,00 more than the new offer re-
Gently rendered by the nine principal
associated power companies of the
southern states.
The statement declared that exami-
nation OF the two offers disclosed that
Ford would pay a total OF $13o,528.s00
over f1fty.year period, whereas the
power companies. the federation con-
tends. would pay Ss7,so0.6oO.
"This so-calIed offer Of 100000, 900
becomes. upon investiga ton. neither a
bona fide offer nor Is Il a payment of
500, 900. .ooo." said Gray Silver, WASH
fngton representative Of the federation.
1T is merely suggestion that these
allied power companies may subscribe
enough to pay 4 per cent interest on
the cost Of the Wilson dam.
THE offer made by these water
power interests adroiuy leaves the
manufacture Of fertilizer out of the
question, and 1t does not indicate how
much power they would be willing to sell
to any one who Is willing to invest his
millions in the rebuilding Of nitrate
plants for the manufacture of fer
tli.er and who Is willing to expert
ment and advance the air nitrate
manufacture business both for the
farmers who use fertilizer and for
The nation at large, which must have
unlimited and cheap nitrate in time
OF war. Neither do they or can they
toll what the power would cost the
manufacturer. although they hint
cheap power.
I'VE do not believe that Congress
Will permit the issue to be confused
or delayed by the correspondence be-
tween q group OF power interests who
Indicate what they might do under
certain conditions when Henry Ford
Is before them. One would serve the
nuhlic the nther exhibit IL -
