IL the national public returns law is
attacked in the courts.
William Juneau, a Milwaukee real
estate man and former coach of the
University of Wisconsin foot ball
team, brought the test case in this
State. He alleged unconstitutionality,
asserting that the law invaded the
right of property. He set up the
theory that q certain degree of
privacy Is inherent In, property, which
could not be taken away for needless
purposes, especially if it's destruction
might act to impair property rights
or property value in any way. Mr.
Juneau conceded that public officials
had the right to scrutinize tax returns

campaign two years ago. The La
Fsllette- Blaine faction, supporting
the measure, argued that 1t would
halt fraudulent returns and tax
'dodging. Adoption of the law was
strenuously opposed by the business
interests OF the State, which con-
tended that 1t would work an unwar-
ranted hardship on business and
would give competitors trade infor-
nation to which they had no right.
4 Probably 1000 persons have called
at the office of the tax commission
to inspect corporation tax returns.
Officials of the commission have no
authority to inquire why the visi-

report was based on a compilation

house owners in the principal cities

change report.
The highest rent recorded was
$6231 a month for each room of an
exclusive New York apartment. The
average for New York was reported
to be $34S6 The New York figures,

Dear Sirs:

We had q great deal Of trouble with
them through constipation and bran
had been the most satisfactory rem

MANUFACTURE

We have travelled far from the root meaning of this word.
Manus, hand facio, | make-hand work. In that word we
come face to face with the true worker, the creator. Here also
we come to one OF the most fundamental and permanent of
human joys. the joy of creation. How careful we are to main
tain this distinction in our commentator of work, if it is hand
made. At once we feel the superior quality of the work. 1t
expect to find also characteristic touches and suggestive var
iations which a machine cannot produce. This joy in hand
work we may be sure in a reflection of that primal joy in the
heart of God in his creation. All the foolish wisdom of science
cannot cheat us of that deep glow of spirit in contemplation
of the universe as the immediate output of the Divine Person
aity. In vain do we interject eternities of time and intricaces
presence burns away all such mists and clouds. His eternal
power and Godhead are clearly seen in the creation of the
world, being understood by the things that are made. We have
all felt this deep elemental JOY when the hand has given sub.
vision.
The industrial revolution through the introduction of ma
chinery is one Of the greatest Of world movements. 1t has been
discussed and expounded by the wise in all lands, and enforced
as object lessons which the most stupid must understand. Yet
only a few dreamers and seers have appraised the world of its
great loss, the loss of JOY in creative work. When manufacture
is no longer true hand-work, but the tiresOme, monotonous task
of experimenting one or many machines, then the laborer is
reduced to something near an automaton, hardly above the
machine which he tends. When the JOY of creation is sub
tracted from work, what remains but bald drugeryf II is
drugery that kills, not labor. One has but to notice the dull
faces of these machine slaves to know how much has gone out
of their lives. A woman whose duty was to run a button
machine in a great satisfactory said to a visitor: "Dont you
suppose that, after standing here eight or ten hours doing the
same stupid thing over and over again, | hate the sight of a
shoe buttonf Don't you suppose that when l get out of here
at night l feel like running and creamingi In the evening |
just have to get out on the street with the crowds and noise
and shop windows" We may be sure that just at this point
also not only is there a demand for change, but the darker
temptations come leering and whispering about the jaded soul.
This fundamental change in the character of productive
labor is the rational ground for all reforms proposed for bet
tcring conditions under which work must be done. No one is
to blame for this great change; no one wishes it otherwise. We
