A PREMIUM ON IDLENEss

The Saturday Evening Post tells a story Of an eastern
textile manufacturer Of middle age who rebelled against
high ~surtaxes. He closed his mills, ~liquidated his capital
and put the proceeds into t~ax-free securities. He now
spends his time in travel and recreation. This is what he
says about it:
"Why should 7 keep factory hours, subject my capital
to the risks Of business, wear myself out in the daily grind
and then hand over ffty-eight per cent of my profits to
the federal government, and another large slice to the
me more dollars that can call my own than my business
did before l gave it up. The government that penalized
me when l was a useful and productive citizen now puts
a premium on my idleness."
The Greene Amendment to the constitution which has
been before congress to do away with future issues of
tax-exempt bonds was defeated on February 8, 1924, by
required.
Many speakers who opposed the amendment spent
more time abusing those who favored it than in present
ing economic arguments against it.
Lazy wealth will enjoy another year of idleness in tax
exempt bonds, but public demand for a square deal grows
stronger every year.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1924-03-20
FORGET PARTISAN POLITICS IN TAX QUESTION

President Coolidge, in his Lincoln Day New York
speech on tax reduction said:
eff we had a tax whereby on the first working day the
Government took 5 per cent of your wages, on the second
day 10 per cent, on the third day 20 per cent, on the fourth
day 80 per cent, on the fifth day 60 per cent, how many
of you would continue to work on the last two days of the
week? It is the same with capital. Surplus income will
go into tax-exempt securities. It will refuse to take the
risk incidental to embarking in business. This will raise
the rate which established business will have to pay for
new capital, and result in a marked increase in cost of
living.
"The high prices paid and low prices received on the
farm are directly due to our unsound method of taxation.
I shall illustrate by a simple example: A farmer ships a
steer to Chicago. His tax, the tax on the railroad trans
porting the animal, and of the yards where the animal is
sold, go into the price of the animal to the packer. The
packers tax goes into the price of the hide to the New
England shoe manufacturer. The manufacturers tax
goes into the price to the wholesaler, and the wholesalers
tax goes into the price to the retailer, who in turn adds
his tax in his price to his purchaser. So it may be said
that if the farmer ultimately wears the shoes he pays
everybody's taxes from the farm to his feet.
ut is essential, therefore, for the good of the people
as a whole that We pay not so much attention to the tax
paid directly by a certain number of the taxpayers, but
we must devote our attention to relieving the tax paid in
directly by the whole people,"
The foregoing seems like good common sense whether
proposed by a Republican or Democratic president. If
the tax question could be considered as a business prop
osition affecting all the people equally and removed from
the realm Of selfish political activity, it would be a bless
ing to the American people.
How much longer will we have to pay excessive taxes
in order that this national subject may be used as a po-
ltcal football in Washington?

The FIT. Peck Indians should do
as their white brothers do, not al
ways-but they should organize, and
stick. The Standard is with Hitch

American spirit, Poplar backs the
Standard to the extent of placing
all their money on the card that the
Indians friend will go to the Point
