TWILL MAKE TAX BILL
ISSUE OF CAMPAIGN
Coolidge Determined Country
Shall Judge on Fundamental
Involved.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

President Coolidge intends to max e
a paramount issue OF taxation in the
coming campaign. Signing of the tax
bill does not preclude his appeal to
the country for the election of a Con-
gress which shall support his views.
Mr.. Coolidge will insist that tax re-
duction could have been greater
that the burdens on the many mil
lions Of people who pay indirect tax
es could have been lifted and a much
more productive revenue measure
framed. Responsibility for the i'm
perfections OF the bill will be plac-
ed squarely on the Democrats.
To the claims of the latter that
they have given the country bill
which fayors the small taxpayer in
stead Of the individual with large
income. the Republicans will not en-
ter their dissent, but they will point
out that the failure of Congress to
adopt certain recommendations of
the Treasury will hamper instead of
stimulate q reduction in the cost of
living.
Arkument on Publicity.
The President proposes to tie up
the defeat Of the surtax proposals to
the general business condition of the
country, arguing that free flow Of
capital would have meant more in
dustria1 expansion, better wages,
more employment and economic prog
ress. The idea that every taxpayers
private affairs may be open to every
body else is also counted upon as
ammunition for the stump. because it
is not limited to persons Of large in
come, but includes everybody.
MIR. Coolidge will ask the Decem-
Der session of Congress to repeal GER
tain provisions OF the new law and
to amend others. His request would
have more weight. OF course, IL he
happened to be reelected. for the

violation Of Rights.
1t in .oS alone in the unwarranted
fpterference with the right of the
citizen to privacy that these provi-
sions are hurtful. 1t is believed that
far from increasing revenue, the de-
sire to avoid the qualification of the
idle curiosity of others or the ex-
posure of ones personal affairs to
ones competitor will result in the
concealment of millions of dollars or
income which would otherwise be re-
ported. This means change in the
fundamental policy OF our laws, vio-
lative of private rights and harmful
to government revenues.
Criticism of the income tax and a
large part of the dissatisfac ction with
it are the result of delay and uncer-
tajnty in the final determination of a
taxpayers liability. Taxes can usn-
ally be paid within short time after
the receipt of the income on which
the tax is based without serious en-
barrassment. The payment, however.
of large additional tax on income
received several years previous and
which may have since its receipt
either been wiped out by subsequent
losses or invested in non-lIquid assets
may force taxpayer into bankruptcy
and often causes financial sacrifice
and hardship. Provision should be
made for the prompt and final deter
of Taxpayers liability and
such was the purpose in the sugges-
tion for a board of tax appeals.

party. is one of the most striking
speeches in the present electoral
campaign, delivered in Visby and
published throughout the Swedish
press.
Professor Bergman, who is Incl

ist movement in Sweden, said that
the reasons for the gigantic growth
OF the United States were to be
found. not in natural resources alone
since other unexpected regions of
the world had resources that were
virtually just as great, but in the
fact that the American people, whose
leaders are gifted with enterprise,
foresight and daring, have labored
industriously and with common sense
maintaining a high standard OF
sound living under liberal laws. He
urged Sweden to follow America s
example. to show bold initiative in
undertaking to develop on a still
larger scale her own resources oi
