MINISTER TELLS OF
 VALUE 0F kIWANIS
Calls It Acceptance of Individual
 Responsibility in Community

Cooperation is more conducive Co success in the life of any community than competition" said Rev. F. Roy Meyers. of Westfield, Mass, in an ad- dress to the New Britain Kiwanis club today. "The biggest thing in life is to have the ideal called fellowship he said. He spoke about conditions existing throughout the world in 1915 when Kiwanis was born. Everybody was wondering what was going to happen next. Everybory was wonder ing what the Germans would do when they reached Paris. All thoughts of men to building mp and construction. and tearing down. The birth of Xii wanis he said turned the thoughts of ennn to building up and construction.
 We had been boasting of our abil- ity to live together" he said. "and it looked for awhile as though every thing that had been built up in ciyili- tion was to be torn down. There has been reaction in society and the war has lifted us to a higher plane of idealism than ever before.
 Men were giving as never before. put Wntll lle dHlISl1Cc came We sat back in our seats and said, "by heck, we've done enough.p Then we had the return to what was deemed pIea- sure madness, to bigotry and class distinction-the tendency to live with in ourselves and let the rest of the world go by"
 From this, he said, there was 8. gradual development to the condition where men turned from their selfish interests and became public spirited"
 '''The right kind of an idea will be a success if it has an organization be. hind it." he said. He added that while enthusiasm was needed to make kiwanis clubs successful he did not mean noise. Some of the people who make the most fuss make the small est contribution to the expense bud get Some of the noisiest parishioners in the church put the smallest con tributions in the basket" he added.
 He concluded by predicting a suc- cessful year for the New Britain Xii wanans.

Civic Clubs for the
L arner

The Progressive Farmer, an
agricultural paper, thinks a larg-
er number of farmers have been
impressed by the success in the
cities of the civic clubs, where
meetings are held weekly for the
discussion of community prob
lens and the promotion of COM
munity progress.
A correspondent to the Pro-
gressive Farmer says:
Farm ers should have in addi-
ton to their selling organizations,
their mutual insurance compa-
MES, and the like, an organization
like Rotary Clubs in the cities
club which maintains an open
forum for the discussion of the
many problems of the farmer.
Let the women's organizations
care in the main for the school,
the Farmers Union promote the
fraternal side, and let us have on
top of this club with general pur-
poses for the dissemination of in
formation and the forming of
public opinion a kind of round
table where rural problems can
be threshed out, as they are in
the city mans club.
Every community ought to
have clubs suited to the products
which it produces, (corn clubs,
poultry, tobacco, apples, pota-
toes.) Whatever the product,
the producers should form a club
for its improvement and mutual
improvement and mutual ex-
change of ideas relative to it, or
in other words bridesmaids
guild, which would keep a library
of reference books and afford an
opportunity for discussion of the
questions pertaining thereto"
Such an organization among
farmers would be of untold
value to them. Supper served
early in the evening, when the
days work is over, would leave
plenty of time for the discus
sions of the many problems COM
stantly facing the farmer.
No one can help the farmer
as much as he can help himself
and the exchanging of expert
ences. the advice of all for the
benefit of each would engender
a confidence and a desire that
viii not come in other ways.

Tax Exempt Wealth

Fifty-hve billion dollars Of
wealth escapes the tax collec-
tors in America. That's enough
to make $4,000 millionaires.
So reports National Industrial
Conference Board after an ex-
tensive check-up. This board is
a most scientific and thorough
statistics-gathering body. Its
figures are used widely in set
ting labor-capital disputes.
The board is a conservative
organization, and its figures are
conservative, as usual.
1t doesn't take into account
the billions of dollars that evade
taxation by the help of crafty
tax-dodging lawyers and book
keepers-experts in finding loop
holes.
Out of this total of $4,000
million dollars that escapes
taxes. $4,000 millions represent
Liberty Bonds and other tax
exempt securities issued by the
national, state and local govern
ment.
Rich and poor have the privi-
lege of participating in this
branch Of tax exemption. The
joker is that these tax-free Sc
curities gradually drift into the
hands of rich individuals and
corporations. And stay there.
The boards other figures
should be considered by every
reader, to clear up a lot of con-
fused ideas.
For instance, among tax
exempt property are these;
One thousand millions in
foundations"
One thousand five hundred
millions in college, hospital,
charitable and church endow-
ments.
The rest consists mainly of
tax-empt real property" =
land and buildings owned by
government, churches, ceme-
teries, institutions, etc.
Bringing it down to a nut
shell; Tax-exempt wealth is a
sixth of our national wealth and
equal to third of all property
assessed under the general prop
erty tax.
AS civilizations get older, the
tendency is for taxes to be
shifted increasingly directly
and Indirectly to the poor and
to people of moderate means.
The rich progressively escape.
They have the money to find or
create avenues of escape.
