BUCHAREST AGAIN IS GAY

Bucharest, Feb. 2.-Bucharest is in a fair way to resume the appearance of gaiety that gave it the name of Little Paris before the great war. One of the signs of the purpose of the government to restore the capital to it's pre-war condition is the ban ishment of the beggars who year ago were numerous on the streets. Bucharest at Christmas time was as gay as ever to the eye and as exhaust ing as ever to the. purse. The stores in the principal streets, or rather the best of them, recalled Fifth avenue to the New York visitor.

was all right, but it was only
$3.50 instead of rs, 200 shares
of stock. 1t is pleasant to have
the misunderstanding about this
affair removed, Furthermore,
Mr. Hays didn't handle the cash,
which was judieious of him; it
was used in taking up a l1ote Of
the committee. Contributors Of

TIPPERARY

The song, cts Long, Long Way
to Tipperary," went begging from
one publisher to another for a long
time. Finally it found a producer
willing to take chance. This is re-
vealed in connection with the recent
death of Williams, one of the au-
thors.
The same is true of r,early every
invention or improved method. Art
has no monopoly on difficulty of
finding a market. The obvious moral
is that, if you are sure you have a
good thing, keep plugging and never

Tax Confiscation

In their efforts to saddle our
tax burdens on the shoulders of
those most abe to bear our
lawmakers are kIlirs the goose
that lays the golden egg.
In theory, that mothod of tax
alton is fine From a practical
standpoint, it is impossible. The
large corporations simply add
the cost of the article, and the
consumer pays all the freight,
Eldridge r. johnson, head of
Victor Talking Machine compa-
ny, sent the following telegram
to Chairman Smoot, of the Sen
ate finance committee, accord
ing to the Sunday American:
Il started the business that is
now the Victor Talking Machine
company, in 1894 on my own
small capital. | have reinvested
Sc per cent of the earnings in
expansion. | have distributed as
much of the stock as is advisable;
there are now 500 stockholders
and 10000 employees all receiving
high wages and many receive
large salaries My taxes, income
tax and computed inheritance
taxes amount to lG8 per cent of
my income since 1917, and if
the House bill becomes a law
these taxes will amount to 1913
per cent of my income since
1917, The gift tax, the stock
dividend tax and inheritance tax
es are all capital taxes, in truth
yelled confiscation. There can
be no economy in low income tax
es if capital taxes are to be rails
ed. These taxes are not only
cruel but they are foolish; they
Will ihjure every one eventually
and | firmly believe slowly de-
velop serious national disaster"
The taxes referred TO by MIR.
Johnson are virtual confiscation
and instead of relieving the
workers, eventually wreck the
very people they seek to aid.
Billions Of dollars are going
into tax-exempt securities be
cause of this very confiscation OF
capital. Money and brains thai
are needed in industry are idle
Men able to command both are
placing their money in tax-ex
empts and spending their time
at Miami in winter, on the
Maine coast in summer, travel
ing West and in Europe in tn,
spring and fall.
Never before in the history O
America have we seen so many
men of brains and energy lit
orally idling away their time
These men have tired of dodg
ing taxes, of facing confiscation
they have quit,

does it matter, but the Enquirer
Sun has long known that far
mer should be a business man,"
and it has also known that until
within the past few years COM
paratively few of them could be
classed as such, as they failed to
employ business methods in the
operation of their farms.
And there are still some who
look to the man with whom he
trades to take care of the bust
ness end of the proposition.
How many farmers can refer to
their books any day in the year
and find how they stand in their
accounts with their warehouse
men or their supply merchant?
How many of them know wheth-
er they are in debt, and if so
how much, or by referring to
their books discover whether they
are not in debt to anybody, or
that there is SON ething on the
credit side Of the ledger?
As little as farmers may think
about it this is something that
should engage their attention.
They cannot farm successfully
unless they know how much it
is costing them to )erate their
farms-what each item is costing
them.
The sooner the farmer looks
on his farm as manufacturing
plant, where expenses must be
budgeted; where every corner
must be cut to reduce overhead;
where he produces that which he
can produce for less than he can
buy; where he buys nothing he
can produce-when this is done,
he will be a Successful Business
Man, for that is the essence of
success.
And, as every successful far
mer will tell you, Live at
home; raise the foodstuffs for
man and beast; provide a cash
income every week through hogs,
chicks, eggs, cream, fruits and
nuts. He who does this will
be-
