WHY EXEMPT OFFICE HoLDERs7
(st. Louis Post-Dispatch)

ADNs A<SAAo OGN-GAoBeAtNAAJ
A resolution was adopted by a group
of the Missouri Bankers association
at Springfield a day or two ago, con-
demning tax-free securities on the
ground that they create a favored
class exempt from the burdens of the
government" There is a much larger
taxi exempt class, however, than the
investors in tax-free securities, which.
we submit, might well engage the pri-
or attention of the bankers.
There are 100000 persons on the
pay rolls of the nation, state and mu-
nicipal government. They draw an
annual salary of SS.5OO,OOOOOO, on
which they pay no taxes. They enjoy
this exemption through an Interchange
of official courtesy. Congress eXempts
the salaries of state and municipal
employees as "instrumentalities" of 10
cal government. The states and NM
inequalities can not or do not tax fed
eral government employees. on the
ground that they are instrumental
ties" of another government.
The authority for this mutual eX-
emption, as the bankers are doubtless
aware, derives from decisions of the
United States supreme court handed
down before the adoption of the six
teenth constitutional amendment That
empowers congress to tax
incomes from whatever source deriv-
ed" It's unequivocal language clearly
voids those previous decisions. But
the decisions continue to operate the
is flouted, our privileged
official class continues on its tax-free
way, and the rest of us continue To
bear the oppressive tax burden.
This tax exemption of government
employees is grossly unjust nequl-
,ble, unconstitutional, indefensio'e
rom any viewpoint. The tax exempt
on the other hand, is an IN
'aluable instrument for public ser
ice. BY this instrument great pupiic
of states and municipan-
les are financed, employment is iur-
ished to thousands. industry is nour-
shed and prosperity accelerated py
he flow of money into the local chah-
els of trade. Those are the practical
easons why states and municipaiilieS
ssist the effort to abolish the tax-free
In addition to all this there

les. attacks were made upon the secre-

troduced in the senate calling upon
him to resign. Direful denunciations
We're hurled at republicans who were
accused of betraying their trust by
democratic senators. and the chair
man of the democratic national com
mittee was most vehement of all, his
onslaught even including an attack
upon the president. 1t was a great /
day for the democrats. who had at |

Forgotten Men

Saturday Evening Post)

A grave at the end of the trail!
What cheer for the hand that was des-
tined to smite
The hard, sullen heart of the hills till
the night
OF age and decrepitude ended the
fight!
He lies at the end of the trail.
What cheer for the men who fall
His name is long written in dust.
The click of the drill and the sturdy
pick blow
Cut deep in the rocks; but no future
may know
The name of the man who lies sleep
ing below.
His broken pick reddens with rust.
His cabin door crumbles to dust.
He was a Knight of the Grail
No danger SO potent, no hardship so
black,
No menace of avalanche over his
track
Could shake his proud spirit or make
him turn back.
He was a Knight of the Grail
And he lies at the end of the trail
These were the men who dared
Far out in the wild, with the rocks for
a bed,
With Hope always hooking and point
ing ahead,
Till Time laid hand on the rugged
old head.
These were the men who dared.
And nobody knew-or cared.

The stout. patient hearts who We're
destined to fail;
Who conquered the West in pursuit OF

And died in their rags at the end of
