10 do away with the tax-exempt
securities passed the House
of Representatives last winter
but died at expiration
of Congress. It is
now necessary to pass it again.
this takes valuable time and
shows waste to and expense re-
sulting where public officials
play politics instead Of ex-
pediting the business of the
nation.
At the present time it is esti-
mated that the income from
approximately s30,000,o00,000
in capital invested in govern
ment tax-exempt securities, es-
capes all forms Of taxation. The
fact that cities, counties, states
and nation can issue tax-exenpt
bones drawing a low rate of III
terest has caused a reckless in
crease in public debt and has
furnished the loop-hole for bill
lions of dollars to escape tax
alton.
After an amendment to the
United States constitution is
passed permitting the~taxation
/ OF income from future issues of
public bonds, it will be necessary
for legislatures of the various
states to ratify the measure.
For this reason. quick action in
1 Congress is essential in order
that state legislatures which
I ire in session or which will be in
session in the near future may be
able to act on the measure and
put an end to the present lawful
put an end to the present obso-
lete system which is an invita-
ton for the reckless piling up of
debt on one hand and tax dodg-
ing on the other hand.
1t would seem as if Republi-
, cans, Democrats and Progress
sives would be on common
ground when it comes to q
measure of this kind which
would assure in the future that
every person would pay his share
grounds when it comes to a

bable that it cannot have the
support Of many clear-headed
and sensible Democrats in the
House as well as in the Senate
who have already announced
themselves as heartily in favor
of the Mellon plan.
That would be the policy of
the Democratic Party if its
leaders were shrewd. They could
insist, if they chose, that the
plan was borrowed from Demo-
cratic sources, could taunt the
Republicans with having taken
up what they reject when it was
urged by a Democratic Presi-
dent, and make all the political
fourishes of this kind that
might seem to be necessary. But
they would then get the bill en-
acted and out of the way before
the Presidential election, so
that the voters could be asked
to think about other things.
Whereas, by obstructing or de-
feating tax reduction, through
the proposal of insincere sub
stitutes. they will make a pre-
sent to the Republicans OF a vic
tory-compelling issue. The
Democrats in Congress and
throughout the country cannot
too soon wake up to the fact
that this way party madn-
lies.-New York Tim.
Roanoke Rapids herald., 1924-01-11
The Democratic Substitute

The immense popularity of the
Mellon plan for cutting down
taxes will not let certain
Democrats in Congress sleep.
The minority members of
the Ways and Means
in Congress sleep. The minority
members of the Ways and Means
Committee have hastily put out
a half baked scheme which they
think will outbid the Secretary
of the Treasury. 1t is evidently
intended as a notification to the
country that the. Democratic
Goblin is the friend, not the Re-
publican Short. Does the Ad-
ministration propose to do some
thing for the great body of citi-
zens? See, cry the Democrats,
how much more we will do. So
they without blush begin to
count noses. The raising Of the
individual exemption to $4,000
and $1,000 will relieve some
thing like a million persons from
making any tax return at all.
With great gusto the Democratic
members figure it out that they
will also relieve 1,646,0O0 labor
ers and small farmers and mer-
chants. Likewise they will come
to the aid of thousands of heads
of families now in the $4,000 to
5000 bracket. What a mass of
votes ought to be won in this
way!
It is . great drive for the
favor Of the common people that
these Democrats believe that

TAX EXEMPTION FARCE
MUST END

Will Congress adopt Secretary
Melons program for tax reduc-
ton which includes reduction
in income tax and the doing
away with future issues of tax
exempt bonds?
The President and the people
are in favor of tax reduction.
The politicians, through their
blocs and parties in Congress,
are pulling and hauling to try to
gain personal prestige through
delays and log rolling in the tax
reduction program.
A constitutional amendment
Roanoke Rapids herald., 1924-01-11

they are making. They print
able showing how much greater
heir reductions are in the taxes
of certain classes than those OF
the Mellon plan. But where do
they draw the line? At an in
come Of 100000. All below that
they apparently consider the
proletariat, all above it, the pro-
iteers. Beginning with 100000,
the proposed Democratic reduc-
ton is progressively less than
that Of the Mellon plan. and so
on up to the higher brackets.
At the very top the Demo-
cratic tax reyiser falter. Till that
point they have gone on the
theory that the rich may be
heavily taxed with impunity be-
cause they are few in numbers.
Why, then, do they stoop to such
a compromise as reducing the
present so percent surtax to A
percent? This is to admit the
soundness Of the principle laid
down by Secretary Mellon, but
to deny its proper application.
the contention of the Treasury,
amply sustained by official
figures, is that the surtax OF so
percent steadily yields less and
less revenue, while diverting
from commerce and industry
great sums which would be spent
on new enterprises were not the
tax so heavy. 1t was on this
basis that the Secretary pro-
posed to make the maximum
surtax 25 per cent. His predic-
ton was that it would both
bring more money into the
Treasury and make available
for new business undertakings
large amounts Of capital which
now are driven to take refuge in
securities. AS We say, the Demo-
Gratis tacitly confess the ac-
curacy Of this diagnosis. But
they refuse to act upon it The
concession of 6 per cent off the
maximum surtax would have
little practical effect, while it
would show that the Democrats
are really compelled to admit the
financial truth which Secretary
Mellon lays down, but are afraid
to live up to it. On the theory by
which they have framed the rest
of their taxation rates they
ought in consistency to keep the
maximum surtax where it is, or
even to raise it. Their makeshift
compromise simply shows their
muddled and worried state of
mind.
Politically, this hurried alter
native of the Democratic men,
bers Of the Ways and Means
Committee was supposed to be
a bid for an alliance with the La
Toilette group and other loose
fish in Congress. But it is now
evident that the bait will not be
taken. The unterrified Radicals
will denounce the Democrats
as miserable compromisers,
and already forward their
own plan to re-
forward their own plan to re-
store the excess profits tax,
keep up the surtaxes, and in
every show that they
mean, to make wealth"
pay through the nose so
as to cover all governmental
wealth" pay through the nose
so as to cover all governmental
expenditure. Thus the il-judged
Democratic appeal to the Con-
