director Of procotol-really social
secretary to the president of the
French republic-sees seven years Of
worry ahead unless something inter-
venes to shorten either his term of of
flee or that of President Doumergue.
NJ De FouQuieres had a trying
enough time with former President
Millerand, who persisted in wearing
madeup bow ties and a terrible gray
topper to the most select functions,
despite the directors fearful en-
treaties that it wasn't good form for
the first magistrate to dress so.
Then for a time it seemed that
absent minded Prof. Painleve might
become his seven-year charge and De
Fouquieres was distracted. But when
NJ. Doumergue was elected, the social
director regained his equilibrium
somewhat.

This applies equally to the butchers boy in Ballard and

That Ta1-Cutting Plan

|NHE nationwide clamor that stirred up and that
still resounds, a result Of Secretary Melons in
tax reducing PLAN shows that he has struck re-
sponsive chord
The more than 5000 letters that have poured in pon
congress since that time show it still stronger
Taxes touchy They hit Mr. Average Citizen right
where he feels it most-his pocketbook William Heron
of the National Real Estate association has figured from
statistics gathered in 81 states that Americans TODAY paw
one-sixth of their income directly and indirectly into
taxes. One days pay each week
The reason for this spontaneous ouburst following
Melons is that the American people de-
nand tax reduction.
The is that 10 per cent of income tax PAYERS
pay tax on less than $4,000 incomes-whefe the bulk
of the tax reduction under the Mellon plan comes in
The reason is that the other 30 per cent also get re-
duction.
We never yet have seen man who likes to pay taxes
That isn't all The demand for reduced taxes isn't all
coming from this 100 per cent.
Take any corporation. Take The Star Publishing Co
for example. 1t pays income tax. Being human it
doesn't enjoy it. Being busnesske it recognizes that an
income tax is item of expensepar Of the overhead
What does it do? What does any corporation do? 1t

advertising rates.
The merchant pays more for Advertising so that we
may pay income tax. Having to pay more for adj
versng he charges just much for the goods he
sells-and, whang! he hits direct at you.
1t has long been accepted true by economists that no
taxpayer as SUCH pays any taxes 1t is only ultimate
that pay taxes. As taxpayer / pass my
along to you the consumer and you pass yours
along to me, the consumer.
And if you are not taxpayer you pay taxes just the
