On went the Twins through the
hallway of the palace toward the
throne room where sat their males
ties, the giant king and queen of
Beanstalk Land.
Everywhere the Twins went in
their enormous seven league boots,
the same thing happened-servants
and courtiers and waiting
fled in dismay at their approach. Be-
cause the Twins were not to be seen
at all and the boots appeared TO be
walking by themselves.
The cook fled, the pages fled, and
the court jester fled. all of his bells
jingling like Santa's reindeer on
Christmas Eve.
what is the matter with every
body?- shouted the giant king an
grily. HAS everybody gone crazy:
Come back here. every one of you,
and get TO your places at once
Just then he spied the empty boots
approaching Tor at least he thought
they were empty and his knees be-
gan TO shake. and he shivered all
over until his tall crown threatened
to roll off his head. And the queen
did the same: shivered and shook,
until her crown nearly fell off. too.
They would have run away as well
as the others. but how could they

the king shakily.
Lots of things called out Nick

again. "since you have not been a

and queen quickly. I'VE will do

quick as two little squirrels. Nancy
and Nick scrambled out of the seven

throne and sat down.
The real king and queen were too

"Put the boots away, please" said
King Nick.

jealous, and properly so, of their
property rights. They dislike very
much for an outsider to interfere
with what belongs to them, and they
look upon the Government as an
outsider in any scheme Of taxation
that is sought to be imposed upon
them; and it is well that they do. The
accumulations of the great majority
Of the people are the result Of labor
and sacrifices. Do the best they
can, the majority of people have
little left as result of their years
work after they make their public
contributions and care for their own.
This is at least one reason why it
is always popular to stand for lower
rates.

offered for the Government taking

accomplished for the people in spite
Of the stubbornest sort of resistance
by the Administration.
In working out the present tax
law, passed by the last Congress,
there was not manifest on any
occasion so far as l could observe,
spirit of hostility toward the
wealth of the nation. In working
out a tax measure an effort
necessarily has TO he made to dis
tribute the burdens Of taxation with
due regard for the benefits the tax
payer is receiving at the hands OF
the Government.
An effort was made TO do this in
the framing Of the new law. II may
be surprising to some people to
learn that all individuals with in
comes below $4,000 win secure
greater tax relief under the Demo
cratic tax measure than they would
have received under the Mellon plan.
and that every taxpayer. without re
gard TO the amount Of the income on
which he has TO pay, will have his
tax reduced. And yet in approving
this law. coldly and grudgingly as
he did, the President was not willing
20 admit relief 1t affords the
country.
1T is now plainly evident that
several motives other than those

Puts Out Propaganda

Recognizing the popularity Of an
appeal for lower tax rates, the Re
publican party, prior to the conven-
ing of the SixtyEighth Congress, put
greater propaganda on foot for
the Mellon plan, on the claim Of tax
reduction, than was ever placed
back of any measure proposed by
or to Congress. Almost every great
newspaper in the country without
regard to party affiliations, Endorsed
it editorially and p9rsistently main
tanned that the Mellon measure
should oe enacted into law. Millions
of people not subject to income tax
and not affected by it, were made
to believe that great mountains of
imaginary burdens would be re
mover from them by the Mellon
Plan At the same time several
million individuals on the income
tax roll. who get greater relief under
the simmons Garner tax law. have
had it pointed out TO them that the
opposite is true and that in fact
there was but one method by which
tax reduction was humanity possible,
and that was by the Mellon pro
posal. There never was. and l speak
in measured words. quite 50 much

before the people in support If any
proposal as there was for the Mellon
Plan.
Few people yet realize that had

measure would be universally hailed
as most effective and most de
sirable step in tax reduction and re-
adjustment
